Paris & Simo are a Canadian electronic dance music duo, consisting of producers and deejays Paris Fotis-Zoubris and Simone Teti. Both born and raised in Montreal, they grew up liking the same music and both had been investing in studio and DJ gear since the age of 15, winning several DJ competitions. After meeting up at a sweet sixteen party they decided to collaborate.^[1] In their early years, they worked under the Paris FZ & Simo T moniker, but changed to Paris & Simo in 2011.^[2]

Their first official release was "Aura" with Mark Mendes, on Starter Records,^[3] but what really put them on the international map was winning the remix contest^[4] for Tiësto’s "Work Hard Play Hard" single in 2011.^[5] Their remix attracted the 2013 & 2014 #1 DJ in the DJ Mag Top 100,^[6] Hardwell, to sign them to his Revealed Recordings label. Paris & Simo released "Monk",^[7] "Nova",^[8] "Seasons",^[9] "Escape"^[10] ft 3LAU & Bright Lights and "Not Alone" ft. Mako^[11] on the label.

"Escape" was featured on Hardwell’s Hardwell Presents Revealed, Vol. 4^[12] compilation and reached the Top 3 of Beatport’s overall chart.^[13] The follow-up tracks were released on Ned Sheperd’s Harem Records,^[14] Ministry of Sound,^[15] Fedde le Grand’s Flamingo Recordings,^[16] Spinnin’ Records,^[17] Nicky Romero's Protocol Recordings^[18] and Armada Music.^[19]

Paris & Simo have performed DJ sets at Electric Daisy Carnival,^[20] Life in Color Ecuador,^[21] as well as Pier 94,^[22] Guvernment^[23] and Las Vegas Marquee.^[24] In 2014, Paris & Simo toured Canada^[25] with David Guetta.
