Joined by Dublin-based DJ and producer Cody Wong, this episode explores the rise of an artist making serious noise across the international electronic scene. With over 15 million streams and a rapidly growing fanbase, Cody’s breakout track ‘N13’ and his evolving sound — blending progressive house, techno, and euphoric trance — have earned him praise from the likes of BBC Radio 1, Ben Hemsley, Sim0ne, Hannah Laing, and many more.

Cody shares his experience of arriving in Australia for gigs and reflects on his Irish heritage, family background, and the cousin who first introduced him to DJing. He opens up about his early days, learning to produce music on his own, and the long process of developing a sound that felt truly his. From first gigs with barely anyone in the crowd to the moment ‘N13’ gained major traction, Cody breaks down the milestones that shaped his path.

He offers honest insight into the current DJ landscape — the pressures, the hype, and the need to adapt. Cody speaks to the importance of mental health, self-care, and staying passionate in a scene that can often feel overwhelming. He also highlights the value of setting goals, having strong support systems like a good manager, and how networking continues to play a crucial role in opening doors, getting gigs, and growing as an artist.

This is an inspiring and down-to-earth chat for anyone navigating the music world — or just curious about what really goes on behind the decks.

Thanks for coming on Cody, I can't wait to see what stage you'll be on next time you visit us in Aus.
