Playback Shows + Wicked Good Time JayKode is an LA based artist fusing
bass music with elements of classical music. Los Angeles-based
producer Joey Khodanian, better known as JayKode, started his musical
journey at age 7 when he began playing classical piano. By age 15, he
had immersed himself with guitar while experimenting heavily with
metal and hardcore, demonstrating his commitment to developing a
well-rounded knowledge of music composition. Building on this
foundation, he started to explore both hip-hop and electronic
productions and fused his knowledge of both traditional and
experimental music genres. JayKode’s passion for strong compositions
and melodies stems from his classical training, a rarity among
today’s electronic music producers. Armed with an eclectic
repertoire of originals, remixes, and bootlegs, JayKode has cultivated
a rapidly growing fan base in dance music. Pioneering the genre he
calls “Classical Bass,” a tribute to his musical roots, he
effortlessly blends melody-driven compositions with aggressive
basslines and production techniques to push the tonal boundaries of
electronic music. Now with characteristic sounds rooted in future
bass, trap, and hip-hop, JayKode readily brings a unique set to every
stage, spinning a wide variety of genres, from bass music to
electro-house, twerk, moombahton, and even oldies, ensuring no two
JayKode sets tell the same story. JayKode’s originals and remixes
are consistently supported by A-Trak, Borgore, Diplo, DJ Snake, Jack
U, RL Grime, The Chainsmokers, and many more – but his most
significant exposure came from Skrillex, who featured his remix of
Beyonce’s “Drunk In Love” during his iconic set at Coachella
2014. Since then, he has released tracks on labels including Ultra
Records, Big Beat Records, Atlantic Records, Fool’s Gold Records,
Buygore Records, Bassrush Records and Lowly Palace. He’s also seen
his remix of Galantis’ “Runaway (U&I)” soar up Hype Machine,
claiming the #1 spot on the overall charts. Some of his most recent
successes comes from his collaboration with Party Thieves on
“Origin” which debuted at the top of the Beatport charts, his
remix of “Closer” by the Chainsmokers and Halsey, and his official
remix of “Cut Me Out” by Flux Pavilion. The beginning of 2017 saw
JayKode embark on his 20 date Break It Down tour supporting the song
of the same name released in January on Bassrush Records. While
touring the country with acts such as Yellow Clay and Valentino Khan,
he also released an official remix of “Angel” by Lido and released
his original “Roll Out,” returning to Buygore after the success of
“Beehive” and “Origin” in prior years. His next original
releases would be on Lowly Palace, first teaming up again with Party
Thieves and Neon Hitch on “Poppy Seeds” and subsequently featuring
the talented Marco Foster on “Wasted.” During the Summer, he
returned to touring first by supporting Flux Pavilion on his “Around
the World in 80 Raves Tour” and then taking the stage ats festival
such as Summer Camp Festival, Dancefestopia, Das Energi, and Electric
Zoo. The year closed supporting Jauz on New Years Eve, capping over 50
shows and leading into an electrifying 2018 which will see new music
and touring from JayKode.
