Dzeko and Torres

The production and DJ duo Dzeko & Torres first formed in Toronto, Canada around 2006. Members Luis Torres and Julian Dzeko had first met as teenagers on an online forum for all-age club events in Toronto. Torres at the time was working as a graphic designer and photographer, while Dzeko was promoting events. Stated Dzeko, "we both loved house music and I had just gone and saw Tiesto play for 8,000 people in Toronto, and decided to buy DJ equipment and learn how to DJ. Luis was starting to learn production at the time and we decided to team up and learn from each other." Through 2007 and 2008 they continued to attend all-ages parties in Toronto, getting acclimated to the club scene and focusing their interest in house and its subgenre. They soon started DJing together and co-producing original material. Around 2008 they released their single "Confronted" on DJ Chuckie’s Dirty Dutch Digital Vol. 4.


Their style is a combination of progressive house and electro, with influences as diverse as Avicii, Lazy Rich, Umek, and Alesso. About their style, Torres stated "What we play and produce is a combination of Big Room electro and progressive house. But apart from what we play and produce,...we love tech, deep house, indie rock, and everything in between."

Both members learned to mix using FL Studio, with Torres, who taught piano before leaning to produce, also handling keyboards. The group was listed in the Top 100-200 DJs by V-Moda, a headphone design company based in California.
