This electronic music duo of Kye “Foamo” Gibbon and Matt “RackNRuin” Robson-Scott hail from North London and when they joined forces in 2012 their fame, quickly snowballed into something more legendary. Their first album ‘Sirens’ marked their entry into the UK dance music world and it was this album that led them to collaborations with the likes of Basement Jaxx and Underworld as well as a co-curated album with Pete Tong, amongst other things.

In 2013, their single, ‘Real’ rose to number 44 on the UK singles chart and in 2014, ‘Ready for Your Love’ peaked at number 4. By 2015, their star was rising and they rocketed through the UK dance charts with their track ‘Go All Night’ featuring Jennifer Hudson. Last year they announced the release of their second studio album ‘The Kingdom’.

It’s worth noting that before they teamed up both Kye and Matt had put in hours behind the decks as well as in this studio. Even though today they perform as a band, their individual experience lends diversity to the act and ensures that their musical abilities are constantly evolving. We got them to put together a little #HGSession for us that promises to take you on a more intimate journey than the ones you’re likely to experience if you catch them live.
