TDJ

From melancholy to bittersweet euphoria, TDJ's vaporous and acidulous universe is an incongruous amalgam between her first emo guitar ballads, under the alter-ego RYAN Playground, and her first kicks arranged on a pirated version of Fruity Loops.

 TDJ is therefore the materialization of the first loves of the young suburbaner, now Montrealer, Geneviève Ryan-Martel, for techno, trance and eurodance; especially for the classics signed by Tiestö, Gamemaster, Signum or ATB, but also for her overly-listened to CDs by Blink-182, From First To Last, and Taking Back Sunday. Surrounding herself with collaborators such as X-Coast, Panteros666, Paul Seul or Krampf, TDJ takes a malicious pleasure in making dance floors sweat, as to smear with neon, but always with a little touch of mascara, to the great delight of her joyful audience.

 From her debuts in 2019, TDJ conquered the old continent with the track "Can't Stop Ravin", followed up by "Nana" in 2020, then "All I Want For Christmas Is An Acoustic Guitar" in 2021. Influenced by gabber and trance, but still glossed with finesse, her music caught the attention of the iconic Parisian label and collective Casual Gabberz Records, who subsequently featured her track “Nana” on their "Meilleurs Vœux" compilation.

 Her first trance EP "TDJ001", which includes a video clip for the track "Quest for Glory" directed by Martin C. Pariseau, releases September 2020. Then it’s the turn of the explosive eurodance "TDJ002" to cement her universe: a sweet memory of a partially forgotten party. A particularly catchy and touching nostalgia ensues while watching the video clip for the track "Lalala (Want Somebody)", directed by Kevin Elamrani-Lince and released in July 2021.

 As a direct follow up to her two EPs, and by surrounding herself with artists dear to her heart, she produces her first concept compilation "SPF INFINI"; the soundtrack to a new genre 38-minutes music video signed by the unmatched director Laurence 'Baz' Morais, released in September 2021.

 Seemingly unstoppable, with all eyes (and ears) on her, a tangible and permeable excitement gravitates around Geneviève. "Addictive/Predictive” and “Sway (The Places She Goes), released in the beginning of 2022, heralds the culmination of TDJ in all her resplendent bitterness.
