Simac (PlasticPimps)

House Music DJ/Producer and Pilchard lover, I've been there, done that, lost the T-Shirt, and some braincells along the way... and here I am, stronger but slightly less normal ;)

With a constantly evolving, and versatile style ranging from Deep & Soulful through funky, to a, tougher, Electro House, Jackin, breakbeat influenced sound, and currently often playing Tech and minimal sounds I am continually looking to enhance and improve on a mix heavy, highly technical style developed over many years of DJing. Now embracing the world of digital media, CD mixing combined with the traditional vinyl, and the inclusion of 3 deck mixing, and efx, the energy level is kept flowing, and the crowd jumping!, I hope!!!.

Look out for Si mac in 2008, with new residencies, DJ sets incorporating my own productions, and forthcoming releases from Plasticpimps

Quotes:

“As soon as I discovered the house scene, I loved the open minded attitude it seemed to engender. Being part of something that was more than just music, more than just fashion, something that truly brought, and still brings, people together.”“Musically, I was instantly sold on the idea of mixing, to me, there was just something irresistible about the pop of the beats when they fuse together, the phase, the special something that happens when two sounds overlay perfectly to create something new”
