“ReSet” is Motez’ latest single to release from his forthcoming EP due out this summer via Sweat It Out. Motez grew up in Baghdad, where he learned to play the piano and make his own style of music. In 2000, as unrest in Baghdad intensified, Motez’s father took the treacherous journey by boat to seek asylum in Australia, then moved Motez and his family over six years later.

Since then, Motez has chalked up six Hype Machine #1s, an ARIA Gold single, and remixed acts including Disclosure, Sam Smith, Goldlink and Ellie Goulding. Sitting at the forefront of Australian dance music, Motez is renowned for his dance-floor hit single ‘Down Like This feat. Tkay Maidza’ and the ARIA gold accredited record ‘The Future feat. Antony & Cleopatra’. Motez continues to prove himself as an innovative dance producer with recent singles, ‘Give Your Heart Away’ and ‘Give Me Space featuring The Kite String Tangle’, both of which scored support from triple j, Kiss FM (UK) and KCRW (US).
