Simon mugshot

Mugshot rumoured to have been taken in Siberia around 1935.

Bassist extraordinaire and synth master, like his fellow bandmembers.

Technique[]

Like all musicians composing 65daysofstatic, Simon has a very dynamic style that will vary to best support the core of the song. Here are notable examples:

  • Unmake The Wild Light: it features a walking bass line in 7/8, followed by a tiered approach to the song's crescendo.
  • Taipei: an impressive use of bass chords in the bridge maximizes the song's impact.
  • The Fall Of Math: a chaotic cascade of notes on the bass builds the song's main hook.
  • The Conspiracy Of Seeds: the crystal clear timbre of bass harmonics.
  • White Peak/Dark Peak: it would appear that this song was played with a bowed upright bass.

Solo project[]

In 2020, he did an electronic solo liveshow in Japan.[1]

His solo work can be found under the pseudonym NVLL[2].

Equipment[]

Simon plays two models of the Fender Precision Bass.[3][4]
