After portraying Ned East in the 1971 BBC TV adaptation of Tom Brown’s Schooldays and roles in films such as The Big Sleep (with Robert Mitchum) (1978), Turner rose to fame as a teenage star in Britain when his eponymous first LP was released on UK Records in 1973.
For a period of two years Turner was a member of The Gadgets (with Matt Johnson) and also joined The The - He has used several names as a recording artist, including Simon Fisher Turner, The King of Luxembourg, Deux Filles and Simon Turner.
Turner also recorded several film soundtracks for Derek Jarman including Caravaggio (1986), The Last of England (1988), The Garden (1990), and Jarman's final film Blue (1993) - He also composed the complete score for William Eggleston in the Real World (2005) and the David Lynch produced film, Nadja (1994), as well as Mike Hodges' last two films, Croupier (1998) and I’ll Sleep When I’m Dead 2003).
During 2013, Turner provided the score for The Epic of Everest, a film made in 1924 by Captain John Noel, restored by The British Film Institute and released on Blu-ray - A soundtrack album released on Mute Records won him an Ivor Novello Award.
“STUFF is a collection of old and new recording complied by SFT in New York September 2025 for Glass Modern, The oldest recording is of Mrs Oyler who lived next to Derek in Dungeness, so he suggested we go and visit her one morning which we did, and so began prospect cottage recordings - The latest is from New York in July 2025 - There is no conventional instrumentation on this stuff - for instance, the pianos on band 8 are from a hotel lobby in Amsterdam and are deliciously out of tune and then royally tampered with in the Mac - I’m fairly certain nothing was recorded in a studio.
Song titles chosen randomly from The Thief’s Journal by Jean Genet All musical aspects were recorded by myself and loaded into the mac using a Roland Edirol R07 and the Keystation mini 32mk3 and etc.
Nothing would have been recorded without the help from film makers Cynthia Beatt, Kamal Aljafari and Derek Jarman.
