While living and working in China, Simon was so disturbed by the lack of quality music in clubs that he started playing it himself. After moving back to New Zealand he discovered his friends had also developed a passion for house and techno music and got together to promote a series of parties and club nights with a focus on quality music and DJ's unwilling to compromise their musical tastes.

Simon first came to Berlin in 2004 to play gigs in various clubs, including a set at the original Tresor. He returned to play New Years Eve 2005, and made the move to Berlin permanently in 2006. The unique party culture and the vast array of musical expression in the city are a huge inspiration to any artist and Simon Beeston is no exception. You can often find him dancing near the front of the club until the last record spins!

Simon has been producing music for seven years and continues to push his sound in new directions. Influenced by house, techno and minimal, it would be difficult to put his music into any one category, but his tracks always have both feet on the dance floor , an irresistible groove and a unique array of samples and sounds. As a DJ Simon plays a bionic, club moving mix of tech house, techno, and house, full of subtle musical hooks and crunchy percussion. His innate ability to program a set from peak time to rolling grooves never fails to keep dancers on the floor.

After a busy year in 2008 with successful releases on District of Corruption, Highgrade Digital and Bond Records, Simon is now set for a bright future as a permanent member of the Highgrade Records artist roster.
