always traveling and promoting the scene and music he loves so much, as well as
pushing his limits by working in Television and Radio. Spyder is the feature voice

industry professionals on his own sound leading to his joining of the group “Spark”.
The first single they dropped, “I Dream Of You Baby” was a huge success in the UK
and Netherlands dance scenes, finding its way in to almost every DJ’s bag of tricks
for some time.
Simon as Mc Spyder came back in 05 working with Olav Basoski on a track called
“Waterman”, this appropriate title echoed the flood gate of success the track would
go on to achieving. Eventually ending up with the coveted Gold Record status in the
EU, released in over 25 countries and toping the dance charts in many hotspots
around the world. Following up the success of WaterMan, Olav and Spyder hit off
“Like dis” featuring a remix by Fedde Le Grand. Hitting the decks in 06 it found a
strong hold on many DJ’s ears and was another strong showing of the unique vibe
Spyder flows with.
