TRISTAN JAMES: TJ

Australia’s Original Party Mashup Machine

With over two decades behind the decks, TJ has been tearing up dance floors across Australia with his high-energy, genre-defying sets. A true veteran of the scene, he’s brought the party to iconic festivals like Future Music Festival, Stereosonic, Summerfieldayze, Creamfields, Winter Sound System and Good Vibrations Festival, and toured the nation’s best clubs — from The Family and The Met in Brisbane to Chinese Laundry and Ivy in Sydney, plus a hundred late nights everywhere in between.

TJ is an open-format mashup master — spinning everything from hip hop to house, throwbacks to techno, pop bangers to dirty basslines — often all in the same set. Long before mashups were trendy, he was chopping up classics with reckless abandon, earning comparisons to genre-blending legends like Girl Talk and Hot Dub Time Machine. Add in his skills as a video DJ, and you’ve got a full-blown sensory assault that keeps crowds hyped all night long.

No genre is off limits. No two sets are the same. If it’s a party you want, TJ delivers — loud, loose, and full of joy.

Perfect for festivals, clubs, corporate entertainment, weddings or anywhere the dance floor needs to go off.
