Providing Europe and South America with a solid international selection, ranging from techno and trance to breakz and dirty electro.

With 15 years mixing experience either in-studio or on stage, Simon Loewen has performed under three other stage names: Simon Van Loewen Simon Childs and DJK.

He has a love for pumping belly aching basslines and a friendly yet agressive techno vibe. Techno, tribal trance and Breakz, London born Simon Loewen rapes the speakers to provide a techno mash-up on the dance floor. Expect tunes from Adam Beyer, Dave Angel, Umek Meat Katie, Joel Mull, and Patrick Skoog.

Simon Loewen plays the dance floor using grooves from the lands of Techno, Breakz, Electro and tribal-Trance. He started playing in 1989, working with free dance party organisers in the London/M25 area. During 1994/5 he played at The Arches, Vauxhall in London run by the former Boom Shanka promoter Matt Dunning, and at Universe's second club The Final Frontier at The Complex in London in 1995. Resurfacing in Brussels in 1999 with techno and house firmly under his belt he ran his weekly Thursday night primetime show het gaat 'm om de plaatjes on Brussels' capital radio station FM BRUSSELS showcasing the latest cutting edge dance music.

His influences delve deep from his childhood days devouring early Break-Dance and original electro (i.e. Pac-Man and others on the Crucial Electro LP collections), to the Goth and Thrash Metal eras (Bauhaus, TSOM, Siouxsie and the Banshees, Alien Sex Fiend, The Cult and The Damned and Napalm Death and Suicidal Tendencies to The Wedding Present) through the early British Acid House raves to his current style now the depths of darkness and attitude. “I know the music will start hard and end hard; what happens in between is always a riot,” chuckles Simon Loewen.

Simon Loewen uses Technics SL 1210s, and anything else he can get his hands on, and RANE reigns. He eats shredded wheat.

Previous highlights include TV work with MEGA TV on a Chilean reality TV show based in a bar on a beach, a weekly Thursday night live radio slot on one of Belgium's capital radio staions called FM BRUSSEL.
