After highly acclaimed releases from OK EG and Donald’s House, Wax’o Paradiso Recordings proudly welcomes Naarm/Melbourne producer Midnight Tenderness (Ryan Hunter) to the fold. Over four tracks the ‘Hydrosphere EP’ continues the label’s narrative of platforming contemporary antipodean psychedelia with three masterful productions and a remix from Boorloo/Perth’s Hame DJ.

As a producer with influences rooted in dub, street soul, boogie and the DNA of UK club music, Ryan draws down on the Middy T sound with the title track ‘Hydrosphere’, a blend of broken machine funk, glistening synth lines and beautiful crisp drum programming. ‘Rain Vibe’ takes the sound palette further adding a hefty wub for good measure. ‘Catamaran’ transports us back to the golden era on the Balearic isles, with the original evoking Ibizan sunset cruises whilst Hame DJ’s remix brings some Madchester chug to the mix.

'Over the past 10 years, Simon TK and Edd Fisher have built, curated and cultivated the now-institution that is Wax’o Paradiso. Wax’o Paradiso’s holistic approach to music sees the esteemed outfit working as hard behind the scenes as they do behind the decks. Harnessing a harmonious balance between stalwart DJ duo, ever-reliable events series and recently founded record label, Wax’o Paradiso’s offerings have cajoled a passionate and dedicated community predicated on a commitment to creating playful and positive dancefloor experiences. 

Wax’o Paradiso’s once theatrically themed events remain charismatic - roving, leftfield locations, expert production and longform DJ sets from Wax’o Paradiso and like minded guests create place and space to elate. As DJs, the duo presents a sonic frontier with unparalleled synergy. Each rapturous journey, a cosmic concertina of rare groove and psychedelia that illuminates the vast reservoir that is Wax’o Paradiso’s ineffable musical knowledge and technical skill. The resultant long-lasting, high-impact performances almost always unfurl in moments that push exultant crowds to soar together in shared states of dancefloor freedom and energetic ecstasy. It’s with this mantle that the duo have a consistent and far reaching presence, amassing frequent club and festival appearances both near and far. 

Together, the pair also co-run the newly established Wax’o Paradiso Recordings, a label devoted to unearthing contemporary antipodean sounds spanning the soothing and the psychedelic, as well as a collection of spirited mixtapes - an expanding back catalogue that’s sure to keep your heart warm and your body moving.'
