Spring and Summer Tour 🌐
Beyond stoked to be heading abroad next week for my first overseas shows in the UK and Canada 🇬🇧 🇨🇦

Recently I also quit my job of 6 years to pursue music full time, so I'm very excited to be starting the next stage of Wax Thief with a bang!

I'll be UK based until October and lots more shows to announce, so promoters in the UK/EU hit me up! 💪

New music dropping soon too 👀 by @waxthief

The day is finally here! 🚨 I am stoked to finally drop probably my most requested ID since Top Killa...

I wrote this track back in late 2024 inspired by the 2000s style of bassline house from the Midlands and the North of the UK. The track was spun by Interplanetary Criminal during his Kindred set B2B with Silva Bumpa and the video received a ton of comments requesting the ID.

I'm sorry it took so long to drop. This one felt special from the start, so I wanted it to sound right, have the right home and release at the right time. So I sat on it for about a year and a half, refining it and building momentum. I even quit my job, packed up my house in Melbourne and started playing shows in the UK, Europe and Canada to get to the place I am now, where I can comfortably self release this on my own imprint WAXTRAX.

I have been blown away by everyone's support already and especially those who have told me they have been hunting for the tune since that Kindred set. 🤯

Self releasing is not easy and I appreciate everyone who can support the tune by buying a copy of the extended mix on either Bandcamp or Beatport.

Thanks again for your patience and let's make this the song of Summer 2026! 🌞

Needed to wait a week to post because I don't have words for how amazing this was. Going over to Canada for 1 sold out club show and one of the best day festivals I've ever experienced, has got to be top 10 moments for me.
Big ups Canada 🇨🇦 @jasonnwon @dropspotvtg and @dialdentertainment for getting me over, all the locals in Hamilton and Toronto who came out to party and especially to @david.macmullen for having the belief in me to make this actually happen.
🥰
Also sneaky lil audio preview... new song July 3rd. Real ones will recognise this 😳

Free download🚨
Just dropped this cheeky free DL of the iconic 2000s anthem 'When I Grow Up'. Seeing as people still seem to love Superstar, I thought I'd run it again with that similar 00's club nostalgia.

As always, free DL on soundcloud but if you want want to jump through the hoops or want to cop the dub mix as well, then head over to my bandcamp for less than the price of a coffee.

Let's hope this version doesn't get taken down.

Love! by @waxthief

And we have rolled in to cause a ruckus this Friday 🫪🥊 ‘Trouble Maker’ is available now. ⁣
⁣
This record was causing trouble for real in the studio since day 1, as it was written to completion on 3 separate occasions in very different ways, and only at the last minute became this speedy organ belter (you might hear the ‘Lowbrain Bumpy Mix’ or ‘Wax Thief Tech Vers’ one day in a live set 😂).⁣
⁣
We are stoked to have this one out today, and a big thank you to our DJ homies who have already been banging this one in clubs across the globe. 🫶🏽🫶🏽🫶🏽⁣

Love to @noinstruction_ for providing a home for this one, @suturemastering for the final sparkle on the master, and @nufabric for murdering the artwork brief. by @waxthief

This one’s been causing a ruckus on the USB’s for a hot minute. It’s been so sick seeing the club go wild to this record. From starting the project in my studio in Perth to finishing it together at @studionelove in Melbourne, it’s been hella fun crafting and testing this one out all over Aus.

Wax Thief is garage project by Melbourne/ Naarm local producer. Wax Thief’s productions are heavily inspired by the original UKG sounds of the mid to late 90s and the infectious club hits of the 2000s bassline house scene.

Wax Thief’s songs have been supported by some of House and Garage’s biggest DJs such as Interplanetary Criminal, Sammy Virji, Job Jobse, Marco Carola and Michael Bibi, Malugi, X-Club, Ollie Lishman, Dj Seinfeld, Yung Singh, Silva Bumpa, Prozak and more..

His 2024 break out track Top Killa took the Europe Festival circuit by storm, gaining nearly half a million streams across platforms and cemented him as a name to watch in the Garage space.

Wax Thief is also making waves as a DJ in the Australian club scene, supporting UKG’s biggest international acts such as Dr Dubplate, Bushbaby, DJ Q and Skeptic and sharing line-ups with local artists such as Osmosis Jones and Isgwan. With headline shows across Australia, Wax Thief is just getting started, so watch this.
