Simon Doty’s origins from deep in Canada’s Western wilderness to a college basketball shooting guard are unlikely beginnings for the development of a finely tuned electronic artist. After years mastering his sound and ascending the ranks of the underground circuit, Doty’s evolution continues. His breakthrough album ‘Universal Language’ now in the rearview; Simon is pushing further into more minimal, groove-based club music with his own imprint Recess. Marquee performances at electronic music’s top venues including Brooklyn Mirage, Red Rocks Amphitheatre, The Gorge Amphitheatre, Savaya Bali and Fabric London highlight a year of live milestones for the Canadian talent. This sound selector and creator is a self-taught gear master ‘whiz kid’ with a profound understanding of musical composition and engineering that has earned the ear of his peers and heroes alike.
