Dream Koala - Earth. Home. Destroyed

The past 12 months have been quite favorable for this young talent. His unique blending of his live singing and guitar mixed with electronic beats has been taking the global ambient scene by storm. Today Dream Koala is back with his new 5-track EP called Earth. Home Destroyed.


Watching the progression in his production and overall song quality has been really cool over the past year or so. These 5 songs are his best work to date. I feel like I can turn on his music, turn off my mind and just ride the musical sound waves to a better place. I especially like the song Gold for doing just that. I love the way the track amps up with the beating drums towards the end which keeps me as a listener captivated to the last second.

Earth is another great track from the EP. It is one of the most energetic songs I have heard from Dream Koala. I really like it because of that. All of his music seems to blend together if you play it all back to back, but this one would stand out to any fan of his as having more life than the rest.

The last song I really enjoy is A Cosmic Landscape. There are no vocals, but I love when a song can take your mind to another place without any use of imagery or descriptions in the lyrics and it relies solely on the sounds and whatever emotions or experiences they trigger in your brain. That is true ambient music.


If you like the EP, buy it on his Bandcamp or on iTunes! Throw him a 'Like' on Facebook too while you're at it.

Enjoy! <3
