Minimal techno and house DJ/producer duo, X & Ivy, began under a different alias, PARTY SHIRT, and amassed 20M followers as the world went into lockdown. The duo decided to start a completely new project as X & Ivy, which began in 2023, but has quickly gained noise, including sets for Book Club Radio, and gigs in US, UK, and Australia.

Their tracks have received support from the likes of FISHER, Jamie Jones, Marco Carola, and more. Their upcoming release with frequent Daft Punk collaborator, Todd Edwards, and an album worth of unreleased IDs has positioned them perfectly for an exciting 2024.
