One of the best party starting collectives in Australia, Wax’o Paradiso will this December the 13th be hosting what’s set to be a killer outdoor party at C​oburg Velodrome event. It’ll be headlined by UK producer Floating Points, who this year has dropped potentially the best electric record of the year – Elaenia – if you haven’t heard it yet we recommend you do asap.

It’s all part of the Freedom Time series, an open air dance event celebrating life through music and sound system culture in the spirit of the carnival, the block party, the park jam and the BBQ. Freedom Time is a collaborative series of outdoor dance parties combining heavyweight sound systems from around Australia, with some of the worlds best DJs and local dance music families.

To celebrate potentially one of the best local parties of the summer and Floating Point’s first Aussie headline show in two years, the crew behind Wax’o Paradiso have curated a very special mix to get you in the mood. Check the mixtape and more details on the gig below.
