About the artist
Hong Kong native gyrofield is becoming a distinctive force on the global club circuit, with widespread praise accelerating their growing influence within dance music. Since discovering electronic music via online communities as a teenager, gyrofield has followed curiosity and inspiration into disparate musical territory, exploring the realms of drum and bass, techno, ambient, pop and free jazz, bending recognised genres into bold new forms. Fuelled by an unrelenting drive to push boundaries, their digital productions become moody and introspective through IDM experimentation, jungle breakbeats, melodic synths and chopped vocal samples – as showcased on recent releases with XL and FABRICLIVE.
Simo Cell is a genre explorer, redefining club music through relentless curiosity and a rare ability to bridge sonic territories. One of the few French artists to break into the UK's closed scene (Livity Sound, BFDM, Wisdom Teeth), his 2021 YES.DJ became a dancefloor classic. His 2023, Cuspide des Sirènes, slows rhythms into hypnotic reverie, complete with its own Game Boy game. His DJ sets are already passing into lore: his 2021 Dekmantel Selectors performance, his 9-hour back-to-back with Skee Mask. Beyond the dancefloor, he composes for contemporary dance and immersive installations.
