Drifting into 2018, Ready Mix Records' 179th release comes courtesy of Brazilian drummer, DJ and producer Felippe Camargo, aka Koala. Years spent studying music theory at São Paulo's Villa Lobos conservatory and drumming in live bands before turning his hand to electronic music production have given Felippe's dreamy sound a distinctive polish, more evident than ever before in this trio of original tracks.

The EP opens for business with the ethereal 'Afternoon Waves', a smooth deep house journey which reflects Koala's love of chill-out and lounge music, whilst steadily building a subtle interplay between rhythm and bass. 'Spaceship In Cruise' takes us on a smooth ride through a shimmering musical galaxy, with swirling percussion and chord stabs appearing like shooting stars through the stillness. 'Every Passing Minute' retains an understated aesthetic, but introduces a little more drama thanks to minor chords, resonant synths and a terse, insistent rhythm track.

First up on remix duty, Ready Mix favorites Below Bankok & Spring Reason guide 'Afternoon Waves' into a profoundly meditative deep house trance before delivering a spine-tingling, spiritual breakdown that's powerful enough to move even the most jaded of souls. Hungarian producer Indio completes the package with a more driving, tech-infused take on 'Spaceship In Cruise', pressing the hyper-drive button and sending us spinning off into uncharted new worlds.

Enjoy!
