NYX

(UK/NZ)

NYX is a London-based collective of artists working at the intersection of choral music and electronic music performance. Led by music director Sian O’Gorman, their work explores connections between the body, architecture, and nature to create music that bridges the ancient and the futuristic.

A self-managed collective, NYX has performed at London Design Festival, the Pompidou Centre, Rewire Festival, Roundhouse, Queen Elizabeth Hall, and Dark Mofo. Their 2020 collaborative album Deep England with Gazelle Twin was named one of The Guardian’s top ten contemporary albums, and they received Film London’s Breakthrough Talent Award in 2021. They also contributed to the Diablo IV Official Soundtrack and will debut their first TV score for the BBC and Bad Wolf’s Dope Girls in 2025.

Sian O’Gorman’s background informs much of NYX’s work. A former member of the New Zealand Opera Chorus and National Youth Choirs, she holds a Bachelor of Music in Performance Voice and a Bachelor of Applied Sciences in Design. Her compositions combine precise vocal direction with electronic tools, shaping NYX’s operatic, psychedelic, and deeply human sound.
