House … Read Full Bio ↴Shane Codd is a 24 year old DJ/Producer from Dublin, Ireland.
House music runs through his veins. His love for it can be traced back to when he was a child; he'd listen to club-classics at home, in the car with his mother, with mates at school, anywhere. Its effect is fully felt on his breakout single โGet Out My Headโ, which nods to the late 90s/early 2000s dance sound, albeit with his own unique twist.
Created in his bedroom at his family home as a form of escape when life paused due to Covid, the track became inescapable itself, resulting in a Top 10 hit on the Official UK Singles Chart as well as Top 10 in his native Ireland, racking up over 20 million streams across both territories.
While he is an entirely self-taught producer it wasnโt always easy. He remembers dropping out of college for a year, moving into a damp apartment in Dublin with no heating and struggling to pay rent, all so he could focus solely on making music. 5 years on, he admits: โI still have loads to learn, its the exciting bit for me. Iโm learning piano at the moment โ itโs a life goal to get good at it.โ His ultimate goal is a simple but ambitious one. Like his heroes of the genre - Avicii, Gigi D'Agostino & Alice Deejay, he wants โto go down as a legendary dance producer, someone who is respected, brought out good music & put on a great live show.
Iโd love it if my music was remembered in 20 years, like Robin Sโ โShow Me Loveโ, one that people still love & doesnโt get old, truly classic tunes."

One minute you want me
At times, you express a desire for my presence and company
Then you're turning cold
However, your affection quickly fades and you become distant
If you need me
In the moments when you require my support and assistance
Gotta take a hold of me, baby
You must firmly grasp onto me, my dear
All I know
From my perspective and understanding
You gotta love me or let me go
You must either genuinely love and embrace me or release me completely
You gotta love me or let me go
You must either genuinely love and embrace me or release me completely
Let me go
Allow me to depart or move on from this situation
Let me go
Allow me to depart or move on from this situation
