Get to know riordan.uk ✨

Riordan grew up surrounded by dance music, with his parents introducing him to House and UK Garage from an early age. He began DJing at 15, playing house parties and local venues, but it wasn’t until lockdown in 2020—at age 17—that he started learning music production. Around the same time, he left school and took a 9-to-5 job at a music marketing agency focused on TikTok, where he gained valuable insights into the platform. With no industry connections, he saw social media as his best path forward. Using what he learned, he began posting consistently on TikTok and Instagram, quickly gaining traction. In early 2022, he quit his job to pursue music full-time—before even telling his parents.

Since then, he has developed his own signature sound, blending UK Garage, modern tech house, and ’90s house music. His tracks have earned support from major DJs like Michael Bibi, Enzo Siragusa, and Dom Dolla. In 2024, he played multiple sold-out headline shows in the U.S. and UK and took the stage at some of the world’s biggest dance music festivals.

We look forward to his arrival at the #CRSSDPalms in a couple of weeks 🌿
