This month's Mindcast is being delivered by no one other than Sorin Simon! Sorin has impressed us at a private party in London and we were so excited to invite him to our podcast series!

Sorin Simon has always been attracted to music and it all started in his childhood home of Cluj-Napoca, Romania, where he took piano lessons while still in school. The passion for music only grew as the years went by and as he started to go to different festivals, Sorin decided it was time for him to become a producer. So in 2006, he got himself some musical equipment and started learning the tricks all by himself.

That same year, he started playing music at some private parties for friends. Slowly, he was learning the craft and by the time he moved in Jersey, in the Channel Islands in the UK, he was ready for the big stuff. Soon enough, he was resident at one of the top clubs in the city.

Time went by and in 2017 Sorin moved definitively to London where he started playing different clubs all around the city. A year later, he signed to Vivus Records, an underground/independent and vinyl-only label from South Germany. Sorin has played at multiple festivals both in Romania and abroad such as Monegros Festival in Spain, Back To The Wild and Electric Castle in Romania.

As a producer, Sorin Simon’s dark and trippy soundscapes are reminiscent of the Romanian underground scene and his first track, O dimineață târzie, remains an unreleased jam, that has nonetheless over 100k views on Youtube. Since then, he released two EPs – Ecouri Paralele at Other Thoughts Records and the track Fragmente on the VA03 released by Vivus Records. 

Sorin aims to give the public the same lovely feeling he has when he encounters quality music and his mesmerizing and deep microhouse does just that. His goal was never to be a people pleaser, but to please the right people.

Mindcast 08 : Sorin Simon

Always appreciate the best (minimal music only)

I only listen to good music  ... house obsessed since  86

Since beginning his career in 2011, Watty has instantly become a hidden gem in the House & Techno scene on opposite ends of the world.

A Canadian native now based Singapore, Watty's love for music began in his earlier years and has since grown to become something far more unique than he imagined. When it's his time to create, listeners can sense a deep-seated appreciation for house music that transcends any geographical boundaries.

Having spun grungy after-hours in Toronto to wild street parties in Bangkok, Watty has developed a killer instinct for reading a dance floor. There are plenty of shades to his sound, as he puts instinct before musical genre, but he can always guarantee to throw down a memory no one will ever forget.

Equal parts versatile, dark, energetic, and progressive, his creations encapsulate Watty’s open-minded vision of techno and love for the infinite variety of electronic music.
