Flight Facilities is an electronic producer duo made up of Hugo Gruzman and James Lyell, who also perform as Hugo and Jimmy. They come from Sydney, Australia.
The duo have been active on the music scene since 2009 but have only started achieving mainstream fame recently, around 2014. They mix songs by other artists, including a string of highly popular singers such as Kylie Minogue, and craft them in to their own original mix. They began mixing in 2009 and during this time predominantly played for the nightlife scene in their hometown of Sydney, at various elite clubs. Their first original song was called ‘Crave You’ and was a big hit in Australia, so much so that they took their act to Tokyo, Japan to play at clubs there. Their first studio album, with Future Classic Label, was called ‘Down to Earth’ and was released 14 October 2014. It peaked at the number three spot in the Australian charts, becoming an instant hit. Their biggest single to date is ‘Clair de Lune’.
The duo have gained some mainstream attention outside of Australia recently after their single ‘Shine A Light’ (a remix) was featured in the fifth Grand Theft Auto game, earning the pair some well-deserved recognition. They have also won some awards for their mixes, most notably a J-Award for the music video for their single ‘Foreign Language’.
