Daniel Wang is a DJ and producer from California, United States, known for disco, space disco, house, electronic and funk. He spends part of his childhood in Taiwan, living there for eight years, then returns to California for high school before continuing his education in New York and Chicago, where he studies psychology and literature.

In 1990, Wang settles in New York City and works in a vintage synthesizer and record shop. He starts his own label, Balihu, in 1993. He also records for Playhouse and Morgan Geist’s Environ, and Balihu is listed among his labels. A member or associated act of Light Fantastic, he works both as a DJ and as a producer.

Wang’s music draws strongly on Italo disco from the 1970s and 1980s, while also incorporating modern touches. He focuses on melody and texture rather than production trends or sampled material, and his style suits Ghostly’s Disco Nouveau compilation, where he contributes the lead track “Pistol Oderso”.

In 2003, Wang moves to Berlin, where he becomes part of the city’s DJ community and is influenced by its political climate, pop culture and gay nightlife. His experiences in clubs including Ostgut and Cookies lead to the 12-inch Berlin Sunrise on Ghostly.
