Simon Shackleton’s Elite Force project began way back in 1996, debuting on his own newly founded Fused and Bruised label with a series of peerless 12s and remixes. After a successful five years,he put Fused and Bruised on the
backburner to concentrate on production work, and following several years with Whole9Yards and Moonshine he became a mainstay recording artist for Adrift Recordings (formally known as Kingsize Records) before moving on to set up hisown hugely successful U&A imprint.
In addition to these solo singles, Meat Katie has been a regular collaborator with Elite Force, a relationship that had begun in 2003 with the massive-selling 'Toba', and that will see their creative relationship come to fruition in 2009 with the launch of their new joint project under the name ‘Dustbowl’, as well as a series of singles under the ‘Meat Katie & Elite Force’ banner.
On the decks, Elite Force has been a prime mover since 1990 when he cut his teeth playing huge student nights and self-promoted acid house nights in the South West of England, before moving up to ....London.... and ultimately
gravitating towards his tech-funk style, with which he now has a full diary of global bookings. He has become known as one of the top technicians on a circuit that has included massive shows in Belarus, Hungary, Australia, Italy, USA, Czech Republic, India, Turkey, Spain, Japan, Georgia, Ukraine, Kazakhstan, and China, amongst others, as well as numerous festival slots including Glastonbury, Coachella, Bloom, Wickerman and the Glade.

INTERNATIONAL BREAKBEAT AWARDS得主。国际百大销量BREAKS制作人。
Elite Force发迹于96年时的自创舞曲厂牌Fused and Bruised并同时以一张12吋黑胶EP〈Mainframe Wrekka〉震撼当时的舞曲界。在历经五年的努力钻研后，他决定将所有心力都贯注于创作上。
03年投身于Meat Katie的Whole9yards厂牌并推出首张个人专辑《No Turning Back》，从此更加奠定了他于音乐上的实力。紧接着更化身为Double Black、Killer 。 Elite发表多首单曲作品，并且凭借着过人的创作与混音实力一举夺得03年International Breakbeat Awards的殊荣。其后在TCR厂牌底下发行的〈Driving Me Crazy〉一曲成为04年Breakbeat界的舞池国歌；而Kingsize厂牌底下与Meat Katie、Roland Clark携手合作的〈The Answer〉更递加了广大的销售量与好口碑。之后也再度与Meat Katie打造出〈The Fabulous Mint 400〉这首大热之作。
