SHVDZ, pronounced “Shades,” are a Glasgow-born DJ and production duo reshaping modern rave culture with a powerful blend of techno, trance, and old-school rave energy. Reece and John met at 16 while studying music production, quickly bonding over a shared love for electronic music. After building their skills as solo DJs in Glasgow’s local club circuit, they officially teamed up to form SHVDZ and dove headfirst into serious music production.

​

Their high-impact, bouncy sound has made waves across the global scene. Their viral track Eurodancer earned over 15 million views on TikTok, while releases like Do My Thing (on Maddix’s EXTATIC Records), XTC, and The Creator (with The Rocketman) climbed Beatport charts and received widespread support.

​

Backed by some of the biggest names in the scene, including Amelie Lens, I Hate Models, Lilly Palmer, Armin van Buuren, and Hardwell, SHVDZ are becoming a force in underground electronic music. From a sold-out debut at Techno Prisonerz in Glasgow to delivering explosive sets at PRTY’s SWG3 events and District Belfast, their live performances are energetic and unforgettable.

​

Fueled by relentless drive and a bold global vision, SHVDZ aren’t just a duo — they are the pulse of a new rave generation, uniting dancefloors worldwide through energy and uncompromising sound.
