His style can only be described as Cutting edge, dark, driving, pulsating. In the past five years Simon has really clocked up the air miles, rocking some of the biggest parties on offer. Recently he has plied his trade in Rotterdam for crowds of up to 500,000; he has performed at the sun-drenched dance Mecca that is Ibiza year in, year out; and he has completed a huge tour of the far-east and an indoor festival in Russia where he gave 20,000 Muscovites a musical masterclass.
Last summer Patterson graced the world stage at Dance Valley, Sunrise, HI-FI, Planet Love, Mexico Stadium, plus various dates in Ibiza, Dubai, Malta, Netherlands, Canada, Germany and Cyprus and countless UK performances.
His production debut track in 2006, entitled ‘F-16’, was massive; ‘Strip Search’/’Panic Attack’ is the scheduled follow up.
Simon’s alter ego is one half of the massive Dogzilla with Richard Kayvan, most famous for recording the ever-popular ‘Without You’, which spawned the new rock trance movement. It went down as one of the precious few trance records in recent years that claimed anthem status. Countless remixes followed.
Northern Lights
Simon Patterson Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
As the sun came out, it was warm across our shoulders
As it went back down, all the lights were all around us
But we won't look down, 'cause all we know has fallen
Yeah we won't look back, 'cause that's not where we're going
Let me go
As the sun came out, it was warm across our shoulders
As it went back down, all the lights were all around us
But we won't look down, 'cause all we know has fallen
Yeah we won't look back, 'cause that's not where we're going
Let me go As the sun
