Simon Hinter

about: First beginning with deejaying and scratchin', makin' Hip Hop Beats in the late ninetees, Simon is exploring more and more electronic music playgrounds. Through his work at one of his best friend's Record Store "Kratzer" in his hometown Siegen, he's getting much inspirations and knowledge about music itself. These years were to create a mastery in melodic electronica and shape a deeper perspective that has found home in labels such as ProgCity Deep Trax, Phil, Love Unlimited Vibes and Midnight Shift. Not giving a fuck about musical rules or principles, Simon is serious about his music being his alone, and allowing him to do whatever he wants, whenever. Neither is his small hometown scene of Siegen, Germany, a springwell of talent. Simon’s music is an anomaly that arose not as a result of a scene but from his concentrated efforts as a fun-loving individual with like-minded buddies. Citing influences such as hip-hop, soul, jazz, funk and rare soundtracks of the sixtees and seventees, Simon identifies himself primarily as a producer, although DJing and his love for these soulful tunes from the past have been cemented in him since age 15. Driven to create real feelings with his sound, Simon touch is in creating something new out of something old. This results in feelings both great and sometimes painful, new and nostalgic in his music. Due to his approach heard in releases from his debut ‘Klapps n’ Funk EP’ in Jan 2010 and his lovely ‘Take Care to a couple of 12" EP's like "Ribbon On The Sky, Pacific and more. One more only need listen to understand what his sound is about. releasing on labels like: Phil AmajinRec Tenth Circle Luv Unlimited Vibes .... booking: simon.hinter@yahoo.de
