- "Simon's music and visuals are deep, emotive pieces, reminiscent of Chris & Cosey, Coil and EBM, whilst still showing a crisp contemporary edge" PLEXA musical lineage stretching back to the late 80's as founder member of electro noise terrorists Twelve 88 Cartel (Bite Back!) and later bass player with John Peel Session faves the Psylons (Thunderbird). From 1996 I was DJ'ing regularly at techno clubs like Geushky, Vurt and Defcon 1 as well performing live with Seatman Separator who have released six albums to date. I also collaborated with Surefoot on their acclaimed "Rucksack EP" released on Brenda Russell's On Test label which appeared in the record boxes of such diverse DJ's as Dietrich Schoeneman, Joel Mull and Carl Cox. I've also done a number of remixes for Bonemachine (Hackpen) including a co-remix with the legendary Sigue Sigue Sputnik. I released the album Permanent Way in 2005 followed by the release of Sublimate EP on Techment Records and a version of Udy's tech-rumbler Trundlewheel was released on Mixtape Records with a remix from Relief Records Jerome Baker.
