Two years ago, Treydey wasn’t commanding dance floors—he was executing military orders with ice-cold precision. Mornings began in the thick silence before dawn, his world dictated by rigid routines and the unyielding weight of discipline. But now? He commands a different battlefield, winding up the tension with deep, rolling basslines before detonating into seismic, pulse-pounding drops that send shockwaves through the crowd.
Treydey electrifies the air, charging every room with an energy that crackles like a storm on the horizon. In less than two years, the Dallas-based DJ and producer has carved out his place in a scene where the bass never sleeps. He’s opened for titans like SVDDEN DEATH and set dance floors ablaze at some of the city’s most legendary venues. From sweat-soaked underground raves to the unrelenting heartbeat of Dallas’ nightlife, the city shaped him. Now, he’s feeding that energy back into Breakaway Dallas. Fueled by a relentless love for tech house, big room, and techno, his rise has been an inferno. And he’s only getting started.
Every beat Treydey crafts pulses with the soul of Dallas. The city’s underground scene was his proving ground, putting him in the correct rooms at the right moments. “The electronic dance music scene has brought me in touch with some of the best people I’ve known—and also the right people!” he shares.
From the glowing arcade basslines of Deep Ellum’s Select Start to the rooftop euphoria of Green Light Social, Dallas is the lifeblood of Treydey’s sound. “Dallas never truly gets the recognition and love that other cities do in the electronic dance music community,” he says. But instead of waiting for the spotlight, he’s taking it. His upcoming tribute track, “Dallas,” dropping April 3rd, is a manifesto. It will be a hypnotic fusion of tech house grooves and bass trap’s raw, unfiltered intensity, bridging two sonic worlds under one electric Texas sky.
Whether behind the decks or carving the pavement on his skateboard, Treydey moves with a rhythm all his own. That control—the seamless transitions, the precisely timed drops—was ingrained in him long before he ever laid hands on a mixer. “My time in the military gave me a mindset of professionalism and punctuality that I still carry to this day as a DJ,” he says. Six years in the Air Force forged his unshakable discipline and his ability to execute under pressure. The same focus that once had him executing high-stakes missions now keeps his sets razor-sharp, his beats hitting with military precision.
For Treydey, Breakaway Dallas is more than just another festival slot— a return to the city that built him. “Being a part of Breakaway Dallas is special to me because I have deep roots here. So during my set, I hope to display who I am as an artist and bring great energy for those supporting me,” he says. The massive Breakaway stage isn’t just a platform—it’s a launchpad. It is a space for him to tell his story, not through words, but through earth-shaking bass, hypnotic synths, and transitions so smooth they feel like gravity shifting.
From Air Force regimentation to festival-stage domination, Treydey’s journey is still unfolding—each bass drop a battle cry, each set a new mission. “Dallas built me,” he says. But now, he’s not just a product of the city—he’s shaping its future. When he steps onto the Breakaway stage, it’ll be a homecoming, a declaration, and a sonic explosion that cements his place in the pulse of Dallas’ electronic legacy.
