Viva Music Signs on 'Confused' by Simon Baker
'If its good, play
it', the sign of a good DJ. That’s
just what Simon Baker is. Plying his trade for
the past 15 years, as DJ, producer and now label boss
(Infant Records), it is 2007 that is really seeing Simon
come into his own.
It was 2004 that his debut production under his 'Liptrick'
alias brought him a whole host of big name fans. It found
its way into the bags, and compilations of Tiefschwarz,
Damian Lazarus, and Dan Ghenacia amonst others, and was
signed to Ralph Lawson's highly respected 2020 Vision
label as part of an album deal.
As well as signing
and producing new material for 'Infant', This
year and in particularly the next few months, you will
see a host of his productions coming thick and fast on
a variety of labels. His awesome 'Plastik' which is already
being rinsed by the likes of Richie Hawtin, Sven Vath,
Ewan Pearson, Carl Craig and more has been signed up
to the mighty Playhouse Records.
This year Simon
has been supporting Steve Lawler on a number of dates,
and it was Steve who snapped up the release we bring
to you today. After witnessing
the damage it causes he swiftly signed 'CONFUSED' to
Viva Music.
Not only that, but he
has managed to get one of our favourite producers on
board to provide the remix. David K is without doubt
one of the finest talents to make his mark on this scene
over the last few years, and with recent releases on
Cocoon and Tsuba, is riding higher than ever. Viva Music
are proud to have him on remix duty!
