TRXD


TRXD is a Norwegian production duo made up of Truls Dyrstad and David Atarodiyan, respectively from Mandal and Oslo. The name ”TRXD” came from the idea ”Truls x David”, and is supposed to represent both of their given names.

Career

Truls Dyrstad showed an early interest in music, and started playing the guitar at a young age before he started to produce music later on. David Atarodiyan didn't start playing or making music until his teens, but quit his job and went on a habitus abroad to learn as much as possible as quick as possible. Even though they both studied at UiA in Norway, it was a series of coincidences and mutual friends that brought them together.

2015–

TRXD was signed to Warner Music Norway after creating a buzz around their remixes, mainly through American music magazine Billboard. They released their first single "Wherever You Go" in April 2016, and the song sold to double platinum by the end of the year. The song also got listed on the official Norwegian chart VG-lista for more than seven weeks, which gave them an opportunity to perform at their official tour 2016. The duo makes vocal EMD-music, but usually don’t sing on their own releases. This has led them to work with other artist, songwriters and vocalists on most of their projects.
TRXD was booked to perform at the Norwegian industry festival 2017.
