Simon Che de Boer was born in the suburbs of small town New Zealand in the year of our lord 1982. Always embracing the arts, his earliest memories consisted of humming away remixes of the alphabet in the backseat of the families Holden Imp. Starving for freedom of voice and mind in rural New Zealand, Simon prospered on the fringes of culturally diverse Wellington. Upon his 18th birthday, overwhelmed by alternative like minded individuals The System ERA persona was launched..

Through out many years, Simon has indulged in all forms visual and audio. Live vocal & piano performances, digitally composed sophisticated jazz numbers or writing thumping break-beats are but a few of the desired expressive outlets he enjoys. If there is one thing The System ERA thrives on it is diversity in all things musical, as the track "Ghost" demonstrates.

The greater majority of Simon's projects can be described as morally and politically informative in a metaphoric mannerism. Concepts expressed are that of global issues, delving into social and environmental contents, expressing a socialistic view in general. Even with tangent projects you will find the odd expressive comment making their way in there.

In 2003 Simon moved to Auckland to further his education and career as an Audio-Engineer, Producer and Label Marketer. His training at both the "School of Audio Engineering" and "New Zealand Radio Training School" has brought this light to reality. Indulging in everything from producing/voicing documentaries for the likes of National Radio to launching his second album "Abort/Retry/Fail". It is fair to say that things are truly in full swing!
