Canadian producer Daijo is emerging as one of the country’s most distinctive voices in electronic music. Blending melodic techno and house, his tracks go beyond the dancefloor; each one is a story, a feeling, a journey that moves both body and soul.
Born to an Iranian refugee mother and raised in Hamburg, Germany, Daijo’s childhood was shaped by resilience, sacrifice, and the pursuit of a better life. Today, living in Vancouver, Canada, he channels these experiences into music that feels deeply personal yet universally relatable. Across his catalogue, he explores love, loss, and the human experience, alongside lush melodies with driving rhythms that invite listeners into his world.
Live, Daijo’s music comes alive in ways that few artists can match. He has sold out venues across North America, moving effortlessly between intimate club sets and festival stages. His performances are immersive, pairing energetic beats with emotive soundscapes that leave audiences feeling both exhilarated and touched.
Daijo has released music on some of the world’s most respected electronic labels, building international recognition while staying true to his artistic vision. His latest single, “Goodbye”, out on Hardwell’s Revealed Recordings, marks a significant moment in his journey. “Goodbye is a story about love and loss, about that moment when you realize letting go is the only way forward,” he explains. The track blends his signature melodic sensibilities with rich, emotive textures, creating a reflective and compelling listening experience.
With a growing catalogue of emotionally resonant tracks and plans for a full-length album, Daijo is doing more than shaping the sound of melodic techno; he’s proving that electronic music can be heartfelt, honest, and deeply human.
Stay tuned for his upcoming releases as he continues to take over the music industry one heartfelt beat at a time.
