In a heartfelt and surprising announcement, Australian DJ and producer Timmy Trumpet revealed he is stepping away from the stage for the first time in his career.

“This has been the toughest year of my life” – Timmy Trumpet

Taking to Facebook to address his fans directly, Timmy Trumpet (born Timothy Smith) opened up about his struggles. While he didn’t go into specific details about the personal challenges he has faced, the message was clear: he needs time to heal. Perhaps the most shocking part of the update for long-time followers is the news regarding his popular weekly show, SINPHONY Radio. The show has been a staple for EDM fans, showcasing the best in mainstage and hardstyle music. Timmy confirmed that the upcoming broadcast will mark a significant conclusion: “I’m taking the next few weeks off touring and this week’s 250th episode of my radio show will be my last.”

While “last” could imply a permanent end, his sign-off suggests a temporary pause rather than a retirement. He pleaded for patience from his fanbase, acknowledging the difficulty of stepping back from a life he loves. Fans have already begun flooding social media with messages of support, wishing him a restful break and eagerly awaiting his return. He did mention that his next show would be Neon Countdown in Thailand on December 30-31.
