Biography

"Elite Force" is a performance and production alias for Simon Shackleton, also known as one-half of Lunatic Calm.

The first Elite Force output in 1997 appeared on Simon's own Fused & Bruised label and was an eclectic mix of visceral break beat and experimental down-tempo electronica. Over the years, the Elite Force sound became consolidated as a heavy, groove-laden dance-floor-focused beast, picking up multiple licenses to movies, TV and video games along the way.

In 2010 Elite Force released the first 'Revamped' album, coining the term referring to a glorified mash-up using elements from multiple tracks to create something brand new. The project was a huge success and led to total dominance of various global music charts for well over a month. That year, Simon won several Breakspoll Awards, including Best Producer and Best Label, as well as a Beatport Award for the best-selling track of the year.
