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, ICA, 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 debuted their first TV score for the BBC and Bad Wolf’s Dope Girls in 2025. In Greek mythology, NYX is the primordial goddess of the night, born from chaos giving birth to light and day. Inspired by this duality, NYX’s music harnesses the voice as a limitless medium for profound emotion, capturing the vast spectrum of human experience with power and authenticity. They invite audiences to engage on their own terms, finding personal meaning in the sound, and envisioning a world where music connects, transforms, and redefines belonging.

For this years’ ALTER NYX will be guide the audience through our re-occurring Opening Ritual, with a special one off performance made specifically for the festival.
