Simon Shackleton’s next outing as Elite Force finds him remixing one of Hungary’s 
most influential underground figures to commemorate a significant milestone in 
the nation’s clubbing history.
A mainstay of the Budapest scene, Metha runs the city’s hugely popular BeMassive 
parties and its eponymous record label. Over the years, he’s invited numerous 
topflight DJs to rock his events but he only had one person in mind to remix ‘Ugly 
Cowboy’, a track that marks two decades of BeMassive. 
“It’s a sincere honour to celebrate BeMassive’s 20th anniversary alongside my 
personal idol, Elite Force,” said Metha. “This release is exceptionally important for 
me. It doesn’t just pay tribute to the musical legacy of the past 20 years but also 
celebrates our deep friendship. ‘Ugly Cowboy’ defines the sonic landscape of
BeMassive to this day – dirty, massive and energetic.”
Indeed, Metha’s original is a full-blooded breakbeat workout that brings real 
energy to the dancefloor, with distorted bass blasting out below crisp, cantering 
drums and static electric fizzes that add more voltage.
Frankly, Shackleton is a perfect artist to add his own take. His work as Elite Force 
pioneered this sound and though he’s a master craftsman of several styles, he 
never fails to deliver irresistible breaks. Here, he effortlessly compresses time with 
a tough floor filler that nods to the classic tech-funk era of the late noughties but 
swells with the full frequency production techniques of 2023. Excitable vocal 
exclamations burst out of his re-rub while heavily processed sounds and a roaming, 
saw-tooth bassline keep things raw and hypnotic. With the tension mounting, a 
skewed and acidic lead synth busts out and sprays around the mix causing the best 
kind of carnage.
“I’ve DJed for my good friend Metha for many years, playing at his epic BeMassive 
events in Budapest, and during that time I’ve seen his music evolve and flourish,” 
said Shackleton. “It’s a real privilege to create a remix for this milestone release 
and doing so under my Elite Force alias was the best fit for the original.
“Metha is one of those rare unsung heroes you occasionally meet when you travel 
the world,” added Shackleton. “He’s a legend in Hungary and is just as capable of 
filling dancefloors with tech-house and techno as he is with breakbeat or emotive 
house. There aren’t many DJs that can say that and, as such, he deserves a much 
bigger platform on the world stage.”
With ‘Ugly Cowboy’, Metha and Shackleton ensure BeMassive’s 20-year legacy will 
echo through the canyons of dance music.

Salut à vous,

Je m'appelle Benjamin; dixit Benn Fox, et je suis DJ et producteur passionné de musique électronique. 

Depuis ma découverte des big drums Bass et d'évènements variés comme dans les festivals (Monegro, Borealis), rave party (Dragon Ball, Trance illusion) Ibiza ( DC10, Amnésia ), clubs after Bar Live Montpellier, Araquis Grenoble… ) j'en passe et des meilleurs Free, teknivals, Tchek tek, 23e Bordel ;))).

Au milieu des années 90 (je sais je suis vieux vous m'en direz tant) j'ai alors débuté dans la création au moyen de tout l'attirail adéquate qui va avec genre RM1X, Emu MP7 synthétiseurs et autre effets et logiciels, la musique est devenue une aimante compagne voire le cœur de ma vie. 

Avec une carrière qui s'étend sur plus d'une décennie, j'ai eu la chance de jouer dans diverses salles, festivals et événements, où j'ai partagé ma passion avec des foules énergiques.

Mon style musical se distingue par un mélange de techno, drumnbass et trance, créant des sets immersifs et pêchus qui transportent les auditeurs dans une autre dimension. 

Chaque performance est une expérience unique, où je connecte les gens à travers la musique et l'énergie collective. 

J'adore créer des transitions innovantes et des moments mémorables qui laissent une empreinte plutôt surréaliste de manière générale.

En parallèle de mes prestations, je passe des heures en studio à composer et à expérimenter de nouveaux sons. 

Mon objectif est de repousser les limites de la créativité, en fusionnant des éléments traditionnels avec des innovations modernes. 

Je crois fermement que la musique a le pouvoir d’unir et d’élever les esprits, et c’est ce que je m’efforce de transmettre à travers mes live set ou mix. 

Rejoignez moi quand vous le voulez ce sera mon plaisir avant tout ! ;) !

Je suis attentif aux diverses sollicitations que vous me faites, vos propositions feront l'objet d'un retour de ma part … 

Très amicalement pour pas dire musicalement, 




Hi ;)

My name is Benjamin, as Benn Fox puts it, and I'm a DJ and producer passionate about electronic music.

Since discovering big drums and bass, and performing at various events such as festivals (Monegro, Borealis), rave parties (Dragon Ball, Trance Illusion), Ibiza (DC10, Amnésia), after-clubs in Montpellier, Araquis, Grenoble, and more, among the best Freestyle, Teknivals, Tchek Tek, 23e Bordel ;))).

In the mid-90s (I know I'm old, you'll tell me that much), I started creating using all the appropriate gear, such as RM1X, Emu MP7 synthesizers, and other effects and software, music has become a loving companion, even the heart of my life.

With a career spanning over a decade, I've had the opportunity to play at various venues, festivals, and events, sharing my passion with energetic crowds.

My musical style is distinguished by a blend of techno, drum and bass, and trance, creating immersive and dynamic sets that transport listeners to another dimension.

Each performance is a unique experience, where I connect with people through music and collective energy.

I love creating innovative transitions and memorable moments that generally leave a rather surreal impression.

Alongside my performances, I spend hours in the studio composing and experimenting with new sounds.

My goal is to push the boundaries of creativity, fusing traditional elements with modern innovations.

I firmly believe that music has the power to unite and uplift spirits, and that's what I strive to convey through my live sets and mixes.

Join me whenever you want; it's my pleasure above all! ;)!

I'm attentive to the various requests you make to me; your suggestions will be responded to by me...

Very friendly, if not musically,

Without sun there would be no sunflower but without sunflower who's gonna love the sun.
 you don't need to read books
read hearts
read clouds and the sky
read every moment that passes by

Music makes me feel things.
