Allan Holdsworth, guitar legend (2006)
“An irresistibly powerful groove! A great rocking debut for one of the UK’s up and coming producers/musicians. The Assessment’s verite account of Robert Dean’s intelligence revelations offers us a glimpse of the reality which inpired TV shows like the X-files. And it’s an inspired meeting of electronica and rock music besides - make way for Simeon Harris’ brand of future groove…

“U.K. guitarist Simeon Harris follows in the footsteps of guitar innovators like David Torn and Robert Fripp in his approach to the way technology can be subverted to his six-string needs. Loops and electronics form the bed on which his lyrical, effects-heavy guitar tosses, turns and rolls. Buoyed by samples of UFO researcher Robert Dean (the record is sort of a concept piece about U.S. alien research), Harris combines his love for his explorative idols with his background in U.K. funk bands to produce accessible, often mesmerizing instrumentals like “Intron” and “Thirty Metres Across.” Creative and thought-provoking, The Assessment is above all a pleasure to hear.

“A great album for fans of postmodern guitar - The production quality of Mechanoia is top notch. Really, you couldn't ask for a better sounding record. I really like it and have listened to it repeatedly. All in all, Simeon Harris offers up a pleasant and substantial contribution to the genre of postmodern guitar. A terrific outing worthy of an "A". ”

Mark Worrel - Kronosonic (2004)
“I just received a copy of <captured>, the new album of London based guitarist and fellow looper Simeon Harris. This is the most beautiful soundscape album I've heard in quite a while, maybe since Leander Reininghaus's incredible Starscapes space music album.
Most tracks feature broad orchestral sweeps of heavily Eventide treated guitar, some of them over minimalist patterns or drum/bass rhythms. An album of delicate and beautiful sounds and dense haunting and uplifting atmospheres. Definitely recommended!

“By turns gritty, smooth, beaty and melodic, "eScape" is relentlessly atmospheric. Simeon Harris projects a detailed sonic landscape and invites the audience to explore it fully. Great work!

“Fans of ambient textures will find plenty to dive into here, but there's much more than that at work. Guitarists with exploratory ears will find just as much substance in Simeon Harris's compositions and techniques. His smooth solos and spiderweb arpeggios work perfectly in the electronic settings which are always musical and tuneful. After Night Falls is a prime example, with chilled out dubby tempos. A winning example of how guitars can work with electronica genres.
