finally got to see him in action last night.

been a fan of his records & style for a long time now & he delivered last night.

bit pissed at Shine in belfast advertising a 3 hour set that was from 1am to 3am.. not the first time theyve done this either.

but aside from that (and the dullest warm up set i have ever heard) twas a good night.

sims is the most skilled :rambo:

[rotten]

what's he doing by the way? no records since "years"?

[gunjack]

dude simsy is f ucking good! i always have fun when he plays!

[module]

no idea where sims is production wise. stopped buying vinyl over a year ago cos its overpriced & generally shit lol

but his dj set was good (if 33% missing)

[Conan]

He's had a few remixes out and that record with liebing but he has been fairly quiet. I'm not really into the new path he's taking in his production but I have started buying his records from a few years back. His old symbolism stuff is hot as is his hardgroove work but I 'm not sure what to expect from him production wise at the moment.

Great Dj though.

Hardgroove is f**kin killer man. specially some of the limited stuf

[eyeswithoutaface]

his older stuff is certainly better but it's all classic Sim's at the end of the day, big loops, party tracks, solid grooves. Always been the way with Sim's ive found, and he's one of a handful of Dj's who are technically flawless

[gunjack]

yea i still play that old hardgroove double, it is really gunjack set material!!!!

[The Overfiend]

Sims is and always has been quality.
Not an unuseful track from him.

[BloodStar]

rocking DJ for me. heared him play several times and he never failed to impress. one of the best i've ever heard..

[rotten]

ok the thing on this 4kosovo lp was not really his shining star but the rest is all cool yeah

[Split-Personality]

rocking DJ for me. heared him play several times and he never failed to impress. one of the best i've ever heard..

Im 100% feeling that, here is the link 2 a recent interview with him & Mr Finke:-

Not too happy about him not playing the main room @ the last Split or the next one though :cool:

[gunjack]

[djshiva]

his set at the tronic party in detroit last year was rockin! i could have done without the twelve or so backspins, but yeah...techically great dj.

[Frank Dogshit]

cant fault sims at all. absolutely embarrassed mills in glasgow the other week (which isnt hard thesedays really) absolutely spot on with the 3 decks,2 cdjs malarky.

I was there as well - Sims showed what a real techno dj can do - he had that back arch stomping away by 11.15 - mills was just dull in comparison.

[djshiva]

sims does have some great energy! and i love how he keeps the jack in with the funk. i love me some jackin' techno!

[billalcatraz]

sugeon and sims this wed at alcatraz was fantastic
4 hours!

[mattboyslim]

lastnight was immense. 3 decks, 2 cdjs. 4 channel mixer, so hes got 2 tracks playing, 2 loops on the cdjs, and flicking the line switch between cdj and deck 3 as he crabs the crossfader. pretty ****in special
