about
Simon Shackleton AKA Elite Force is a hugely prolific, award-winning electronic musician and DJ, with 20 successful years in the industry, under a number of different guises. Simon’s music has appeared on Hollywood Blockbusters, million-selling console-games, and sound-tracks many of the world’s biggest club floors with his unique brand of emotive house & techno on a weekly basis. Simon’s career began way back in his Acid-House-era University days where he studied classical composition and edited the Monthly Campus-wide Magazine with a staff of 15. A chance meeting with a young Thom Yorke led him not only to cutting his first vinyl (these 7”s now go for hundreds of pounds), but also paved the way for a DJ & music production career now going 24 years strong. His debut show was to 1200 people, playing a wildly eclectic blend of styles & sounds for 5 hours straight. That was before he owned a set of decks. Over the past two decades he has run multiple award-winning record labels, including Stereophoenix, U&A and Fused & Bruised, whilst finding time to headline festivals from the US to Australia and causing dancefloor bedlam anywhere from Canada to mainland China. He can also look back with serious satisfaction on a career in film and TV that has seen his music appear on movies such as The Matrix and Charlie’s Angels, whilst Wipeout, Motorstorm and most recently Driveclub are all #1-selling console games that he has soundtracked. He has previously soared with aliases such as
