But who is the man behind the beats? We caught up with Jaden to delve into his rise to fame, his deep connection with fans, and what’s next for this exciting artist.
Hi Jaden! Thanks for joining us today. Your rise in the EDM scene has been quite remarkable. What’s been the most surprising part of this journey for you?
“Hi! It’s great to be here. The most surprising part was how quickly everything happened. I always dreamed of this, but seeing it all unfold so rapidly has been incredible. What truly surprises me is the way fans have embraced my music so warmly. The support on TikTok and Shazam has been incredible—more than I ever expected.”
What moment in your career stands out the most to you, and why?
“Performing for the first time at Ushuaïa during David Guetta’s night was a defining moment for me. David is a legend in the industry, and Ushuaïa is one of the best clubs in the world. Standing on that stage, feeling the energy of the crowd, and knowing that I was part of something so iconic—it was surreal. It made me realise just how far I’ve come and fuelled my desire to keep pushing forward.”
How has your relationship with your team evolved over the past year, and how does that impact your creative process?
“My team is actually the core of my success. Over the past year, our bond has only grown stronger. They have my back, no matter what, and that gives me the confidence to explore new creative avenues. Knowing I have a team that believes in me and my vision allows me to take risks and push boundaries in my music.”
Can you talk about a specific instance where you felt the energy of your team truly transformed a project or performance?
“Honestly, everything we do is a collective effort. After realising that no one else was going to help us the way we needed, we decided to take matters into our own hands. We handle everything ourselves—label, PR, bookings, you name it. This DIY approach has been incredibly empowering, and it’s brought us closer together. Every project we undertake feels like a testament to our resilience and determination.”
You’ve emphasised the importance of loyalty and trust in your team. Can you share a story that illustrates how these values have been crucial to your success?
“My career wouldn’t exist without the loyalty and trust of my team. We’ve faced countless challenges, and the only reason we’ve made it through is because we stand by each other. There’s not one specific story, because it’s an ongoing narrative—every day, we rely on these values to move forward.”
How did collaborating with Sasha influence your approach to music and performance?
“Sasha is more than just a collaborator; he’s a mentor, partner, producer, and even my trainer. Our relationship is built on 100% trust and loyalty, which is rare in this industry. Working with him has not only refined my approach to music and performance but has also reinforced the importance of having someone in your corner who truly understands your vision.”
What do you think has contributed to the significant shift in your professional journey recently?
“Consistency and believing in myself have been key. I’ve learned that doing what I love—music—without compromise is what drives me. The shift in my career is the result of staying true to myself and never losing sight of my passion.”
What challenges have you faced over the past year, and how did you and your team overcome them?
“We’ve faced many challenges, mostly because not everyone believed in me. But the one person who always understood my vision is Sasha. Together, we’ve faced the world head-on. That sense of ‘us against the world’ has made us stronger, and it’s a mentality that’s carried us through the toughest times.”
You’ve described your recent work as remarkable. What do you think makes this period in your career so special?
“This period is special because I have a strong team that allows me to focus solely on my music. Without the distractions, I can channel all my energy into creating and performing, which has led to some of the best work of my career.”
How do you balance the demands of fame with maintaining genuine connections with your fans and team?
“My life has been a journey with fame for the last 14 years, ever since I started with ‘Tarzan.’ I’ve learned to handle fame by staying grounded and remembering where I came from. Maintaining genuine connections with my fans and team is crucial because they’re the ones who’ve supported me through everything.”
What role does energy play in your creative process, and how do you cultivate it within your team?
“Energy is everything. If you believe in yourself and approach everything with positivity, good things will happen. My team and I feed off each other’s energy—when one of us is feeling low, the others lift them up. It’s that collective positivity that keeps us moving forward.”
How does working in different environments impact your music and creative output?
“Working in different environments has a huge impact on my music. Every country has its own culture, and that always inspires me. I try to incorporate those cultural influences into my music, making each project unique and reflective of my experiences.”
How do you see yourself shaping the future of music with the new generation?
“I hope to bring back real music with strong lyrics and melodies. Music is a universal language, and I want to create songs that resonate with people on a deep level and bring them happiness.”
What was the turning point in your career that made you realise you were ready for the next big step?
“Being invited to the Grammys was a major turning point. It made me realise that I was on the right path and that music is my true passion. That moment solidified my commitment to my career and my dream.”
How do you handle moments of doubt or uncertainty, especially when working on major projects?
“When I’m feeling doubtful, I talk to Sasha. He always gives me the motivation and confidence to push through. His belief in me is what keeps me going, and it’s made me come back stronger every time.”
In what ways have your personal experiences and growth influenced your music and performances?
“My personal experiences influence me every day. They push me to get better, to refine my craft, and to put everything I have into my performances. It’s a continuous cycle of growth and self-improvement.”
Can you discuss a specific performance or project that you feel captures the essence of your recent work?
“My performance at Ushuaïa definitely captures the essence of my recent work. It was the moment where I truly felt ready for the big stages, and it showed in my performance. Everything came together that night.”
How does your definition of success now compare to when you first started your career?
“I’ve always dreamed big, and I’ve always had just one plan—Plan A. There was never a Plan B. My definition of success hasn’t changed; it’s always been about pursuing my passion and giving it everything I’ve got.”
How do you maintain your creative vision while collaborating with others?
“I never go into the studio to produce music just because I have to. I do it because it’s what feels right in the moment. Whether it’s a solo project or a collaboration, the music always comes from the heart.”
How do you foster a collaborative spirit within your team on a daily basis?
“It never feels like work with my team. We’re just doing what we love, and consistency is key. That shared passion is what makes our collaboration so seamless and enjoyable.”
What are you most excited about for the future, both personally and professionally?
“I’m excited about so many things, but one of the biggest is buying my first house in the Hollywood Hills. And of course, winning a Grammy—that’s the ultimate dream.”
