A brilliantly tune gathered session. It's fantastic from beginning to end.

Amazing set!! Candy for my ears!! Big ups!! TA 👏❤️

This sounds exactly like (Plump Djs featuring Gary Numan....Pray for you)

Just discovered ya. Amazing nice melodic vibe. Greetings from Belgium

This set is pure 🧨! It just doesn’t get boring, no matter how many times you listen. Soooo many intricate details, super job Simon!

A section of an early morning set we played at 'Loveburn' a regional Burningman party on an island off Miami. Played an entirely different type of set which fitted the early morning beach vibes of a special celebration of art, love and fire! 

Hope you enjoy! X

Stanton Warriors - Loveburn Sunrise DJ Set

An incredible day was had by all in Budapest in late May on the Cruisin / Be Massive 20th Anniversary Boat Party on the Danube. 

My great friend (and amazing DJ/Producer) Metha invited me to celebrate Be Massive's anniversary and the brief was ... 'please play some classics from across the years as well as some new stuff - and we'd love to hear a little Zodiac Cartel too'.

This is the result. 
900 people. 
Nothing but the best vibes.

Much love,

Elite Force (aka Simon Shackleton) - Budapest 2023 - Be Massive 20 Party

This is my set from the Beats 4 Love Festival which took place at Dolní Vítkovice in Ostrava, Czech Republic, in the summer of 2023.

Since I returned to the fray in 2023, I've been using Ableton and a number of controllers to create my sets and am loving the flexibility it gives me to do deeper dives into edits, overdubs, mashups and mixes. It wasn't uncommon during this set to have four or five audio channels running simultaneously. I hope you enjoy the ride!

Elite Force (aka Simon Shackleton) - Beats For Love Festival 2023

A RE:CONSTRUCTED set is a *long* way removed from a standard DJ set. Here's how it works.

Simon takes hundreds of tracks from his huge library, painstakingly deconstructs them (using Ai if needed to separate elements from the original tracks), and then pieces everything back together to create a hugely emotive and immersive musical story.

He uses Ableton Live and multiple controllers to trigger up to 16 individual channels of audio at any one time during the performance, and also performs live keyboard overdubs. The end result is a hugely addictive, compulsive and compelling blend of music that's often new, often familiar but always utterly unique.

This is storytelling on a giant canvas, and in 2024 we will be adding visuals and further live instrumentation to these RE:CONSTRUCTED sets.

Stanton Warriors - Stanton Sessions Vol.3 Promo Mix 2008

Featuring interviews with the Plump DJ's & Freestylers.
This is the music that really took me around the globe and people associate Krafty Kuts with. For me some, of the most exciting and fresh sounding music has been with the breakbeat scene over the years. Playing to 40,000 people at the Exit Festival, headlining shows across Australia & New Zealand to big Festivals in the UK & Europe, USA & Canada. So many great artists have been a part of the Breaks scene ie. Freq Nasty, Plump DJ's, Stanton Warriors, Adam Freeland, Evil 9, DJ Icey, Deekline, Prodigy, Meat Katie, Chemical Brothers, Fatboy Slim, Rennie Pilgrem, Soul Of Man, Squarepusher, Pendulum, DJ Zinc & many more are all featured in this podcast. This was a trip down memory lane and I remember watching people lose there mind to so many of these tunes over the years and it's really good to see the Breakbeat scene still flourishing once again.
