Gorgon City are electronic duo consisting of Kye "Foamo" Gibbon and Matt "RackNRuin" Robson-Scott from London, UK who formed in 2011 and produced the smash hit "Ready For Your Love".
Taking inspiration for the name from the dancehall legend Don "Niryaman" Gorgon and their passion for Greek Mythology, Gibbon and Robson-Scott were influenced by their love of everything jungle, house, grime, hip-hop and garage. Early collaborations from the pair stemmed from working on "The Crypt" EP. In 2012 they released the "Real EP" via digital download featuring singer Yasmin on the title track, with the single peaking at number 44 on the UK Charts.
The duo signed with Black Butter records in 2012, home to Rudimental, Bipolar Sunshine and Clean Bandit. High demand set in for the pair as they began collaborating with the Klaxons on the track "Here For You", produced Jess Glynne's "Right Here" and it wasn't long before the dynamic duo caught the attention of likes of Diplo, Annie Mac and Mistagram.
Following a string on singles, the duo released the incredible "Ready For Your Love" in January 2014 featuring neo-soul British singer MNEK on vocal duties which stormed the UK charts at number four becoming an infectious club anthem across the country.
Their highly anticipated full length debut "Sirens" came out later that year, full of energetic electro-pop tunes featuring a host of global artists including Maverick Sabre, Katy B and Jennifer Hudson on the single “Go All Night” fully immersed in their definitive uplifting soul infused sound. The mainstream radio response which the album received was unprecedented as the album also produced the singles “Unmissable” and a re-release of early hit “Real”.
The duo have taken their riveting and electric performances on the road playing major festivals such as: Glastonbury, Great Escape, Bestival, Reading and Leeds and SW4 building upon their incredible live reputation.
