Dzeko

About

The artist

Dzeko is the solo recording name of Toronto DJ and producer Julian Dzeko. After developing his career as one half of the Canadian duo Dzeko & Torres, he began a distinct solo catalog in 2016 with Liberty. The solo project moved through progressive house, future house, dance-pop, and festival-oriented electronic production on records including In Too Deep, Heart Speak, Heaven, Halfway There, and California. His largest crossover collaboration is Jackie Chan with Tiësto, Preme, and Post Malone, which earned a 2019 JUNO nomination for Dance Recording of the Year and a Billboard Music Awards nomination for Top Dance/Electronic Song. Other collaborators include Steve Aoki, Ummet Ozcan, Lil Yachty, Keith Urban, Aspyer, Matluck, and F4ST. Recent releases include Wutang with Lil Yachty, Never Us, and Country Roads, Take Me Home (2024 Mix). The exact solo Spotify and MusicBrainz identifiers resolve to 29 principal release groups beginning with Liberty and are kept separate from the retired Dzeko & Torres identity. Current location evidence is consistent: Spotify identifies Dzeko as a DJ from Toronto, current industry references call him a Toronto-based artist, and a 2024 Toronto production collaborator independently describes him as Toronto-based. The 2019 JUNO hometown record also identifies Toronto, Ontario.
