These Two brothers inspired by EDM giants such as Daft punk Swedish House Mafia, Hardwell, Dimitri Vegas and Like Mike set out to chase their dream on September 2011. They have been around but they decided to stay underground for a while before they started making a name for themselves in the underground scene at house parties, graduation parties and pool parties paying their dues for about 1 and a half years, gaining confidence, eventually deciding to shoot for the Kenyan EDM scene. In this period of time they have opened sets for three international acts such as Craig Connelly(U.K), Richard the Third (S.A) and Saint Peak (Switzerland). They have also graced a stage with Mafikizolo, Mi casa, Sauti sol, Just a band, Jack Rooster, Cortege and Protégé at Blankets and Wine and Played along local respected acts such as Ken roots, Factory Djs, Chucky, Labman, Kumi, AOK, Joe Mfalme, DJ U.V and many more. 
They have also played in Rwanda at the K club and ABC club, as well as played on Air at Hot 96 as guests of Coco Di Rasta, and the much coveted BLANKETS AND WINE festival that took place for a whole weekend on the first weekend of January in 2013. 
Away from the decks and events, Lovekey and Riyo spend their time enhancing their music production, skills as they aim towards producing music under Big EDM record label signings. They are working to expand their territory on a local scale with companies like IMAGINE-NATION where they currently work under, 6am, Kenya Nights and so on and on an international scale working to break ground in different countries.
With also the release of the new track ‘Natives’, this saw them get a large number of following on their socials and great comments from big artists around Kenya and also abroad. Their earlier releases debuted in early 2014 to much acclaim. Music enthusiasts and club-goers alike started to gravitate to their blast-worthy beats and huge deejays and producers began to support their music. Their recent podcast show debuted in late 2014 and already has been getting a lot of attention. Their latest release Natives is already looking like a third big hit from LOVEKEY & RIYO. Be sure to keep up with LOVEKEY & RIYO' music and upcoming events. With the hard work these boys are putting in, we can’t stop them because they are a time bomb waiting to explode anytime. So you better watch them out whenever they’re in town.
