Artist Details
Gorgon City

Having established themselves as one of the most in-demand acts in the industry, Gorgon City have enjoyed stellar success over the past 5-years thanks to their unique blend of bass-driven house music and addictive vocals. The UK duo, consisting of Kye Gibbon and Matt Robson-Scott, have developed a huge international presence, garnering over 676 million combined streams to date, and playing to enormous crowds of dedicated fans around the world.

Following their debut single releases on Black Butter Records in 2012, things went into overdrive in 2014 with the release of their debut album ‘Sirens’ (70,000 UK copies sold) which also birthed their huge single ‘Ready For Your Love,’ ft. MNEK (64 million Spotify streams), peaking at #4 on the UK chart. The album marked a pivotal moment in the duo’s career and spawned 5 more UK hit singles through tracks like ‘Here For You’, ‘Unmissable’ and ‘Go All Night’ (feat Jennifer Hudson), which all achieved Top #20 positions in the UK Singles Chart.

The pair have continued to thrive in recent times with their recent Duke Dumont & NAATIONS collaboration ‘Real Life’, providing the soundtrack of summer 2017 from the UK to Ibiza and beyond. Equally adept at catering to the underground scene, Gorgon City have showcased their prowess for more rugged, minimalistic beats, through their own club-focused REALM imprint, which also housed releases such as ‘Grooves On The Vinyl’, ‘Motorola’ and BBC Radio 1 specialist anthem ‘Primal Call.’

Recently delivering their brand-new ‘Escape’ album – featuring singles such as ‘One Last Song’ with Yungen & JP Cooper, ‘Go Deep’ with Kamille and Ghosted, and D Double E collaboration, ‘Hear That’ – The release followed Gorgon City’s recent sold out UK and Europe ‘Kingdom’ tour and accompanied two sell-out album launch parties (Brooklyn and London) on both sides of the Atlantic; a testament to the huge worldwide following the duo have amassed. Performing at various iconic venues globally, the pair have sold out headline shows at the likes of Brixton Academy, Amnesia, Ushuaia, Sziget Festival, Splash House in Palm Springs, and CRSSD Festival.

With Gorgon City’s well established Kingdom Radio show broadcast to over 14 million live listeners, the pair also recently announced a wealth of dates across the UK and US during their ‘Escape’ Tour, with Matt and Kye embark on a huge run of performances at the likes of London’s iconic Printworks venue, Las Vegas, Philadelphia, Los Angeles, Brooklyn, and many more.

Undoubtedly one of dance music’s most popular, and fastest growing, acts in the world, Gorgon City continue their meteoric rise heading into 2019 and beyond.

Haylee Wood

Maybe you discovered Haylee Wood during her DJ set at Skyline Music Festival 2021 or Global Dance Festival in 2022. Maybe you discovered her this year at Electric Daisy Carnival in Las Vegas when DJs played her latest unreleased track. But if you haven’t discovered Haylee Wood yet, what are you waiting for?

A lifetime love of music informs this up-and-coming Miami-based house DJ, producer, and vocalist who has been playing piano and guitar, singing, and writing songs since the age of twelve.

But there’s “music is my life,” and then there’s the kind of “music is my life” that only ravers understand

Haylee discovered dance music and the festival scene just in time to have COVID take it all away. Bored in quarantine, she realized she still needed the music that meant so much to her – and so decided to try her hand at mixing house.

Wood soon discovered she was a natural, and what started with playing at home soon gave way to playing for friends. Playing for friends soon gave way to playing at clubs in downtown Orlando like Elixir and Celine. And as it so often does, DJing soon gave way to producing.

Now residing in Miami, Wood looks to expand her empire, not only singing on her own tracks but also contributing to other producers’ works a powerfully emotive alto voice that recalls Alicia Keys in some moments and Beth Orton in others.

As for her beats, Haylee’s sounds would feel equally at home at a Dirtybird Campout or in the Neon Garden. Served well by influences like VNSSA, Green Velvet, John Summit, and Eli Brown, her DJ sets combine an ear for hooks and an eye for groove.

Too Heavy Crew

Too Heavy Crew, a DJ and Producer duo featuring Frankie and Carlos, combines their Cuban and Puerto Rican heritage with House and Tech House music. Their distinctive sound sets them apart in the music scene and has led to their growing popularity.

The duo heads the “official use only" record label and has played at major festivals like Imagine Music Festival, Okeechobee, EDC Orlando, and Skyline. With releases on Sticker Music, House Keepers Records, Rawsome, and Prime Society, Too Heavy Crew continues to make their mark in the global house music community.

Ed Alexander

28-year old DJ & producer Ed Alexander is a Washington D.C. native and started spinning house at the age of 19 at his alma matter University of Maryland, College Park.

Music has always been a part of his life/ his roots stem from hip-hop, latin & beat-driven music. Being the youngest kid out of 4, he was always shown music from an older-age group/demographic. “I remember I couldn’t understand what the lyrics fully meant or how the rappers/artists twisted vocabulary. All I remember is the beat being catchy—now I can it was the rhythm and grooves that kept those songs stuck in my head.”

In 2019, he traveled to Barcelona & Ibiza by himself in search of inspiration, “I had pretty much given up on the American house scene and I think that trip changed my life for the better... It gave me a wake up call to the other side of the world and how the underground house/techno scene dominates mega-clubs and is the highlight every night.”

Coming back from ibiza, his appreciation for underground artists grew for the likes of: Loco Dice, Luciano, Nic Fanciulli. His current inspirations are: Joshua Puerta, Latmun, Jamie Jones. His current house style is focused heavily on minimal drums with conga, bongo, and tom based grooves.
