Daniel Chien, better known as Wax Motif, is widely recognized as a key architect in shaping the modern house music sound across the U.S. Drawing from a rich palette of influences—including R&B, disco, and U.K. bass—the Australian-born, Los Angeles-based producer has carved out a distinct style that continues to make him one of the most in-demand names in the scene.
In late 2019, Wax launched his own label, Divided Souls Records, debuting with the single “Divided Souls” featuring Diddy. The imprint has since become a creative home for his string of solo hits and high-profile collaborations with artists like Diplo, Matroda, AC Slater, 220 Kid, Euro Trash, and more.
Following the success of his 2022 debut album, House of Wax, which has amassed over 33 million streams, Wax showcased his versatility—effortlessly blending electronic euphoria with hip-hop swagger. The album takes listeners on a sonic journey through chilled, meditative moments, summer-ready anthems, and peak-time dancefloor bangers.
His tracks have earned support from some of the biggest names in electronic music, including Lee Foss, Dom Dolla, James Blake, John Summit, Solomun, Meduza, MK, FISHER, Chris Lake, CID, Don Diablo, and Zhu. His remix of Drake’s Honestly, Nevermind gained traction on radio and was co-signed by Gordo himself.
Looking ahead, 2023 is set to be another standout year, with new releases already landing on Repopulate Mars and Nervous Records. Several unreleased IDs are circulating online, fueling anticipation for what Wax Motif has in store next.
