Simon Mark Thornton (born 17 March 1970, Brighton, England) is an English recording engineer, mix engineer, remixer, producer and musician.

Thornton first worked at Esselle Beat studios in late 1980s, but later became the resident engineer for Norman Cook in all his various guises as Fatboy Slim, Freakpower, Pizzaman, and Mighty Dub Katz. Healso mastered and edited many other releases for the Skint Records label. In recent years, Thornton has been the co-remixer on tracks for The Mock Turtles and also has remixed on his own for Tears for Fears.

He is currently performing and co-producing the new Brighton Port Authority album, according to his blog, A Mutual Misunderstanding.

His solo electronica album under the name Login Joshua is due for release through iTunes in 2009. The project was documented through his blog, with the aim of choosing a name, setting up a website and recording each track in less than an evening.[1] The project was partly a comment on the record industry's failure to change with the times.
