There's no other producer on JOOF that has made such an impact in such a short period of time as Simon Templar. He's touched a nerve in the Trance world (in a good way), bringing back the true ethos of what Trance music should be about. The reaction and support he's been given from all across the world has been outstanding, his music simply does the talking.

Dimitri Kechagias review: The seminal and highly respected trance label JOOF presents two exceptional tracks from Simon Templar that will stand out. 2nd Shade of The Sun is the title and is divided in 2 parts. The 1st part is a wonderful dark moody haunting tribal progressive trancer with cinematic melodies and exceptional sound design. There are multiple layers of sounds added in this beauty that your mind will be occupied for long and your imagination will run free bringing to your mind subconscious thoughts and hidden mental images that we suppress and we are afraid to look face to face, deal with them and move forward. If trance is all about hypnotic state of mind this track is exactly your ticket to a state of trance. 2nd part is equally mesmerising with spacey sound effects, ethnic voices, cinematic strings and airy pads upon the techy mechanical beats and the pulsating deep haunting bassline. Of course the psy trance influences are evident as well but this track is all about the mysterious atmosphere and the outstanding sounddesign. Pure Trance! Love iT
