They’re both from the same area in Canada, called Scarborough, which is located just outside of Toronto.

News | Gryffin Announces His “Heading Home” Live Tour
Posted by Tay on February 22, 2016
There’s no denying that what Gryffin has accomplished in the last year is impressive. The NYC-based multi-instrumentalist was the man behind some of the year’s biggest remixes with his uplifting and anthemic takes on Tove Lo, Maroon 5, BANKS, and more, before he capped the year with the release of his “Heading Home,” his debut original production. Gryffin was even able to parlay the success of “Heading Home” into two sell-out shows in Los Angeles and New York for his inaugural live performances. Now, with his live show complete and some serious wind in his sails, Gryffin is ready to set off on his “Heading Home” live tour, which will send the talented house maestro to major cities across the US and Canada like San Francisco, Toronto, Washington D.C., and more. Gryffin’s “Heading Home” live tour promises to bring the musicianship and artistry that has come to define his music to a larger-than-life club setting, while still maintaining the energy of a dance set.

Electronic | Discover Bliss with Chet Porter’s Remix of “Where Are Ü Now”
Posted by Juicebox on June 29, 2015
Nowadays, “Where Are U Now” remixes are like jelly bean flavors – there are so many of them, there are a couple of bad ones, but nearly everyone has their own opinion of their favorite one. The latest remix of Jack U’s hit with the Biebs comes from Chet Porter, a Toronto native who has delivered stunning future flips of Ryan Hemwsworth, Zedd, and Porter Robinson. Porter’s remix is unique because he didn’t take on the original track, rather he chose to re-work Ember Island’s ethereal cover – to great success. Ember Island’s heavenly croons provide the perfect partner for Porter’s beautiful synth melodies and jaw-dropping production.
