Simon James
Buchla 200e, Lorre Mill Double Knot, Apollo 11

The Simonsound’s Simon James will be performing using the Buchla 200e and Lorre Mill Double Knot. Celebrating the Apollo 11 50th anniversary. 

Brighton based, he played at the first Fort Process. Under the name The Simonsound, he took inspiration from the cold war, space race, science fiction and library music, and the album ‘Reverse Engineering’ was selected by Giles Peterson as one of his BBC Radio 1 Records Of The Year.  A darker sound in Black Channels (a collaboration with singer Becky Randall) found a home on cult soundtrack label Death Waltz Records. The soundtrack to the radio drama Akiha Den Den, described by Electronic Sound Magazine as ’21st Century Radiophonica at its very best’ and ‘a seamless adventure in spot on sound design’, has recently been released by Castles in Space Records.
