Based out of Adelaide, Australia, EDM artist and producer Motez emigrated from Iraq in 2006, establishing himself in the city's burgeoning electronic scene. Through innovative releases like 2014's Own Up EP and 2015's Vancouver EP, Motez developed a distinctive style that eventually included creative collaborations with artists like Tkay Maidza, Dom Dolla, and Scrufizzer. Also an in-demand producer, he has remixed tracks for high-profile names like Frank Ocean ("Thinking About You") and Mark Morrison ("Return of the Mack"). His solo EP Praise arrived in 2017, along with the single "The Future," a collaboration with Antony & Cleopatra. ~ Timothy Monger
