Sim Fossil | Releases

Something I've been thinking of for a long time has finally happened, I have launched a new project under alias Sim Fossil. Accordingly, that means new music and mixes !

This one has been recorded quite a while ago with my dear friend @konos-studio a musical journey through our selection of our favourite and quite nostalgic tunes, a fusion of ambient, balearic, experimental genres, downtempo. A kaleidoscopic balade through the things memories are made of. ٩(˘◡˘)۶

8 months after the release of their 3rd EP, spotlight on leftfield italo, Mister T. records are now back with their first official digital release to light up dancefloors with its load of vintage synths and iconic drum machines. 

Fedor aka Sim Fossil is a Russian DJ and producer from Moscow, now based in Paris. He started his journey in the electronic scene 10 years ago, producing under his house alias Cossway with many releases on HedZup, Whoyostro, Hatch, Deepolody, Inter records, etc.. Big fan of labels like Mood Hut, Pacific Rhythm or PPU, this new release is a big step for him, making his debut in the 90’s electronic music.

With the Body Contact EP he mixes his influences, coming from the Belgian, Canadian and US underground scenes, to deliver three tracks, complex blends of saturated samples and vintage drum machines. 

The EP opens with ‘Body Contact’, its most dance-floor friendly track, mixing together the loud and simple rhythms of newbeat jamming with Sim’s distorted house samples. 

MTT is proud to release this EP as a tribute to newbeat & as Fedor’s first move with his new alias.

We are super happy to welcome Sim Fossil (@simfossil)in our podcast series, especially with him releasing his first EP on the label.
Sim Fossil aka Fedor Velyaminov is a DJ, record collector and producer currently based in Paris.

Rec, Whyostro, Inter Records, Deepology and many others.
Now living in Paris, where he works as a graphic designer, he has found inspiration in the rich
cultural heritage of the city leading him to launch his new project as Sim Fossil. With his new
moniker, he’s now focusing on more underground fields, experimenting in genres as newbeat,
downtempo, synthpop or balearic ballads.

Mister T. Records is a Record label and DJ collective founded by a group of friends in Paris & Toulouse. 18 months after the release of their 3rd EP, the label is back with their first official digital release, a new project by Russian-born (Paris-based) producer/DJ Sim Fossil.

Sim isn’t new to the production game, in fact, he started his journey in electronic music 10 years ago, producing under his house alias Cossway and releasing with labels like HedZup, Whoyostro, Hatch, Deepolody, and Inter records. Sim considers this project a big step up for him, citing labels like Mood Hut, Pacific Rhythm, and PPU as influences for this newly minted sound.

The Body Contact EP is truly a blast from the past. Each tune is filled with vintage synths and iconic drum machine sounds paying homage to the sounds of the Belgian, Canadian, and US underground scenes.

The EP opens with ‘Body Contact’, its most dance-floor friendly track, mixing together the loud and simple rhythms of newbeat jamming with Sim’s distorted house samples. The journey continues with ‘Baseline Traffic’, another powerful tune, diving in the very essence of late 80’s electronic music. Its hypnotic bassline guides us all along, between aerial melodies and filtered synths. Rounding out the release is ‘Programmed Cruise’, a groovy tribute to proto-house and synth-pop, a step back from the new beat influences of the two first tracks. With its ethnic flutes and chugging percussion, Sim evokes a light and carefree atmosphere that’d be perfect for daytime festie sets. A song like this is versatile and could easily make its way into a house, Italo, or even tech-house set. If you’re a fan of DJ City, Jexopolis, or anything from Eden Burns, this EP will be right up your alley.

Sim Fossil’s Body Contact EP drops on February 2nd. Smash that pre-order via the label’s Bandcamp.

This week, we're excited to present a synth-laden, 80s-inspired mix by special guest @simfossil:

“The theme of this mix is a certain new age sound and flavor from 80s recordings. I traced this sound through the work of many Japanese artists (hence the Shibas on the cover) and I would say this became the backbone of the mix: music by the legendary Haruomi Hosono, Yuji Toriyama and many more. The vibe is unique and experimental, a new age-y, jazz-rock-y type of deal. I’ve been quite inspired for a long time by the character and creativity of this era; something about the guitar and instrumentation gives it that special touch. Personally, as a producer, I’m a big fan of Yamaha instruments, in particular the DX7, which I’ve come to associate with this time in music. Though Japanese artists are the central thread, I’ve made a kind of fusion of many different things that to me capture this special flavor.”

Sim Fossil - Marimba Desert

Since his debut on Mister T. Records, Sim Fossil has emerged as a driving force within the label.
After his impressive first EP with MTT, he has actively engaged in deejaying alongside the crew and contributed a track to the label's compilation project. Breaking new ground with this 10th EP, Sim Fossil presents the label's first 4-track mini-album, providing a deeper dive into his diverse range of influences beyond disco, newbeat and ambient. The release features a fusion of styles, but states a true definition of Sim Fossil's sound between saturated samples and percussive melodies.

On the first tracks "Marimba Desert" and "Course d’Amour," Sim Fossil continues to build upon the foundation laid by his previous "Body Contact" EP.
Infusing a funkier touch, he ventures beyond the confines of the newbeat realm, showcasing a dynamic exploration of sound. The mini-album takes a detour into ambient vibes with "Montezuma," allowing Sim Fossil to delve into a more...  more
