Simon Aussel, known professionally as Simo Cell, is a French DJ and producer whose kinetic sets and continually evolving productions have made him one of the most distinctive voices in the European electronic music scene. Based in Nantes, Simo Cell has developed a sound that fuses the energy of UK bass, dubstep, techno, electro, and percussive club rhythms, marked by intricate sound design and an intuitive understanding of dancefloor dynamics. Emerging in the mid-2010s, Simo Cell’s breakthrough came with a series of 12-inch releases on labels like Livity Sound, Wisdom Teeth, and Timedance, signaling his affinity for forward-thinking club music drawn from both UK influences and the experimental fringes of French electronic culture.

His 2019 EP 'Yes.DJ' and distinctive collaborations—most notably as part of the duo Simo Cell & Abdullah Miniawy—showcase his willingness to bend genre boundaries and incorporate diverse global reference points. As a DJ, Simo Cell is celebrated for his adventurous selections and infectious energy, captivating crowds at clubs and festivals across Europe and beyond, from Berghain and fabric to Dekmantel and Unsound.

His work as a curator and mentor through SLAP, an event and educational project in Nantes, demonstrates his commitment to nurturing emerging talent and fostering community in electronic music. Simo Cell’s productions and performances fuse immediacy with depth, channeling bass-heavy rhythms and glitchy textures into tracks that are as cerebral as they are physical. With each release and appearance, he continues to refine his singular vision, pushing at the edges of contemporary club music.
