SYNESTHESIA X SELECTECH \\ FIRST OPEN AIR OF 26'

Cody Wong measures progress in full circles. Originally from Donegal and now based in Dublin, he first encountered dance music through his cousin's decks as a teenager, later hosting weekly house parties in Sligo and earning a residency in Letterkenny. The pivotal moment came at Life Festival in 2019, where he stood in the crowd and resolved to play that stage. After the disruption of the pandemic, he returned to the same festival in 2022 — this time as an artist, invited up by Ben Hemsley after signing one of his early tracks.

Since then, his work has gathered sustained support — more than 15 million streams, airplay on BBC Radio 1, and releases on OBSCUUR, AC1D and RCA via his remix of The All Seeing I’s ‘Beat Goes On’. His 2025 Drifting in Motion EP and debut Australian tour marked a clear step forward in both craft and reach.

With CLUB 808, released 1 May on CAROUSE, Wong consolidates that development. The two-track EP — paired with ‘OUSADIA’ — is not presented as a fleeting peak-time tool, but as a considered statement on groove, space and intention. It reflects his long-standing interest in progressive house and euphoric trance, informed by recent time spent within the European bouncy trance community, while retaining the clarity of production that has become his signature.

In conversation, Wong speaks less about algorithms and more about patience: allowing a track to breathe beyond three minutes, designing sounds that translate on large systems, and honouring the dancefloor as a place of collective memory. CLUB 808 is the result of that patience — a record shaped by years of small rooms, a major festival promise kept, and a producer now confident in his own voice.

Teletech isn't making merch anymore. They're making a national team for the rave. The World Cup Drop looks like the moment the brand fully steps into that 360° vision — music, fashion, football, all stitched with the same double-T. If you want in, set the alarm for Friday. These won't sit.
