El Mundo featured on the last Flow Music release when he collaborated on a remix with regular production partner Zazou.

Nōpi is a young Ukrainian producer whose making his debut on Flow Music following outings on scene-leading record labels such as Anjunadeep, Do Not Sit and All Day I Dream.
“Inhale Exhale” is the EP’s original track and it’s got a slow-burning groove with haunting male vocals and poignant chords layered with soaring pads and dance floor focused percussion. Nōpi’s remix of Inhale Exhale strips back the original and layers new tribal percussion plus a sub-heavy bassline to create a techy version full of atmosphere. El Mundo’s remix introduces a new piano riff to create a spine-tingling version that’s full of suspense, while the original’s vocals fill it with emotion.
