TDJ LAUNCHES NEW SPF INFINI RECORD LABEL, FIRST RELEASE LED BY TORONTO ARTIST ZORZA 

22-TRACK MIX AND COMPANION VIDEO SPF INFINI: ZORZA OUT TODAY via SPF INFINI

Montreal-based artist, producer, and trance visionary TDJ officially launches her new record label SPF INFINI, a bold new chapter expanding the world of her acclaimed audio-visual project of the same name. The label’s debut release, SPF INFINI: ZORZA, arrives today as a 22-track mix and companion video led by Toronto DJ and producer Zorza, available now on all platforms.

Listen: SPF INFINI: ZORZA (Compilation)

Marking the first of five new SPF INFINI releases, TDJ now passes the torch on to the artists who were essential in shaping the sound and energy of the Pitchfork-acclaimed series. 

“SPF INFINI has always been about creating a family around a common vision,” says TDJ. “A vision of a modern Trance, rooted in its origins but transcending its limitations. Euphoric, deeply emotional, blissful... Having artists I invited in previous editions now stepping into the SPF sunlight feels like giving wings to this vision. I have always wanted SPF to push the next generation forward, and this is exactly what SPF INFINI will do as a label.”

The release is accompanied by a new video, featuring Zorza DJing in what appears to be a spaceship full of ravers, including a recurring cast of characters from the series’ visual universe.  Zorza, who has contributed to previous SPF INFINI compilations, takes the lead on this release, bringing her own style and perspective to the project. 

“Having released tracks on SPF INFINI in past editions, it was really special for me to have the opportunity to curate my own edition,” she says. “For this mix, I leaned into the harder and hyperpop side of trance. I was lucky to have so many friends and artists I admire contribute to the project and put my own touch into the SPF INFINI universe.”

SPF INFINI: ZORZA fuses high-energy, soaring melodies with nostalgic glimmers of peak 2015-era EDM. Featuring new tracks from Zorza, Isla Den, UVCORE, and many more, it’s a journey that hits both the heart and the dance floor.

SPECTRUM AND ÎLESONIQ PRESENTS LAYTON GIORDANI | FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 14, 2025 | MTELUS

Special guests:
LINSKA, KEV SUNSHINE and SHIRLEE


Friday, November 14, 2025 from 10:30 p.m. to late!
MTELUS, Montreal 

AND TURN MTELUS INTO A "RAVE" EVENT
WITH FULL BAR SERVICE ALL NIGHT LONG!

 

MTELUS, known for offering an exceptional environment for festive and cultural events in Montréal, will once again transform itself on Friday, November 14, 2025, into a late-night celebration running from 10:30 p.m. until the early hours of the morning! To complete the experience, a full bar service will be available throughout the entire event.

Just six months after installing a cutting-edge giant video wall at MTELUS, a new locally designed production—created by promoters NEON and evenko in collaboration with CR34TE—joins the arsenal of this iconic concert venue for a dance party not to be missed.

To mark the occasion, none other than New York DJ and producer LAYTON GIORDANI—protégé of Adam Beyer and collaborator of Green Velvet, with both feet firmly planted in high-intensity techno and house—will perform a two-hour set (or longer, if the vibe is right!) Alongside him, the magnetic LINSKA will bring her sharp-edged blend of techno and house infused with UK sounds, following opening sets by Montréal’s own KEV SUNSHINE and SHIRLEE, who are sure to ignite the dance floor.

The partnership between îLESONIQ and SPECTRUM represents a growing commitment to underground electronic music within the festival’s programming, infused with SPECTRUM’s signature atmosphere and artistic direction. The concept has already taken over Montréal’s Grand Quai du Vieux-Port multiple times, showcasing headliners such as Nicole Moudaber, ANNA, Space 92, Kevin de Vries, Cloonee, and Adriatique.

WHEN: Friday, November 14, 2025

TIME: 10:30 p.m. – late!

WHERE: MTELUS (18+)

FISH56OCTAGON AND ISSEY CROSS COMBINE FOR NEW SINGLE “DREAMING (FEELINGS)”

One of the most loved & recognisable names in dance music, Fish56Octagon joins forces with breakout vocalist Issey Cross on 'Dreaming (Feelings)', a standout, high-octane record already teased on socials with 4M+ views across their 1.3M combined following. 

Stream/download: Dreaming (Feelings) Fish56Octagon x Issey Cross

Behind the now iconic dressing gown and dry Weetabix breakfasts is Fish56Octagon, one of dance music’s most distinctive voices. Known for his encyclopedic sets and viral content, Fish has built a global following thanks to his endless passion for electronic music new and old. His “School of Fish” project supports grassroots talent though his own Octagon Discs label, and 2025 has been another huge year already. 

Issey Cross is a singer-songwriter from Kent, England, who has had collaborative hits with artists like Wilkinson and Nathan Dawe in the past, and also had UK Top 40 success with her tracks “Bittersweet Goodbye” and "Used To This".

Says Fish56Octagon, 'Dreaming (Feelings)' is my remake of an Ibiza classic, a 90's house anthem by Ruff Driverz. I wanted to bring it to a new audience and also respectfully jog the memory of people who like the original. It was so important to me to preserve that sun-kissed Balearic feel, but also pound out a more driving drumtrack and a punchy bass, so we've got something that maintains that emotive ethereal quality of the original but slaps on the dancefloor in 2025 " 

'Dreaming (Feelings)' is an emotive and uplifting anthem with the pure, soaring vocals of Issey Cross and powerful breakbeats all working to get hands in the air and dance floors going off, especially once the vast bassline drops. 

This new single comes ahead of Fish56Octagon's landmark O2 Academy Brixton headline set and extensive UK and US tour and marks another defining moment for Fish’s rapid ascent through the underground to the wider dance scene.
