ARTISTAS / SIMON GARCIA

Born in the late 70s, Simon grew up listening to the music of legendary bands like Depeche Mode, New Order or Kraftwerk, but he also had a deep interest in genres like Blaxploited Funk, Latin-Rock, Rare Disco, 90s House o Acid-Jazz. A musical baggage that would later find an artistic common ground in its way of understanding and creating music.

Nowadays, Simon has seen his works released on labels such as Poker Flat, Freerange, Pets, Compost, Supplement Facts, Perspectiv, Something Happening Somewhere or Composite, releasing original tracks or remixing artists like DJ Yellow, Sasse, Henry Saiz, Matthias Vogt (Motorcitysoul), Kyodai, Lee Burridge, James Teej (member of My Favourite Robot), Mikael Stavöstrand or Tomoki Tamura among others. His timeless, genuine and very personal sound already has the unconditional support of a large part of the international electronic scene, noting for example Steve Bug, Guy Gerber, Jimpster, Catz ’N Dogz, Silicone Soul, Ripperton or Nuno Dos Santos, with whom he has released on their own labels. It was precisely this characteristic sound that led him to be invited by Loopmasters, the main international sound-design firm, to participate in its prestigious Artist Series collection. It was very well received by specialized press and public, reaching global top sales for several consecutive weeks, and soon his own collection will be released with the name ‘Simon Garcia’s Hypnotic Vibes’.

With a tour-schedule that has taken him to cities such as London, San Francisco, Tokyo, Glasgow, Barcelona, Miami, Malta, New York, Paris, Venice, Porto, Geneva, Mexico City or Saint Petersburg among many others, Simon is also resident in two of the most important House / Techno sessions of Madrid, the city he lives in: Mistura and Replay Sunset Parties.
