TEAM UP WITH VANDELUX FOR A HOUSE REMIX OF “FOLLOW THE RIVER”
EMBARKING ON AN EXTENSIVE NORTH AMERICAN TOUR
THIS MONTH – MORE INFO & TICKETS HERE
os Angeles psych-soul duo RIO KOSTA have enlisted Vancouver producer Vandelux for a peak-time house remix of “Follow The River.” Built around percussive, rhythmic foundations and a driving groove, the remix transforms the original into a club-focused cut designed to carry energy across busy dancefloors.
Vandelux is multi-faceted producer Evan White, who is known for a sound that takes from a global perspective, embracing both nostalgic and contemporary electronic production techniques. His remix of “Follow The River” follows his viral edit of “Man I Need” by Olivia Dean, which has surpassed 8.2M Views and 630k likes on TikTok.
RIO KOSTA are embarking on their first live shows of 2026, with sold-out New York & San Diego dates amongst a 16-city North American tour this February – hot off the heels of a sold-out UK/EU tour. Find more information and purchase tickets here.

PRAISE FOR RIO KOSTA:
“Hyper-cool music.”
–The Line of Best Fit
“Swoons and swirls, jazzy and house-tinged, a worldly and decadent collection of cuts that draw you in and chills you out.”
–Wonderland
“A glorious concoction of 70s groove, falsetto vocals, on-point harmonies, and utterly sublime sonics.”
–1883 Magazine
ABOUT RIO KOSTA:
The sound of RIO KOSTA, aka Mike Del Rio & Kosta Galanopoulos, echoes much of their respective heritages – with Kosta’s Greek background further flavoured by time in the Bahamas, and Mike being inspired by his Spanish and Italian roots, his time growing up in New York, and especially revisiting his identity following the passing of his Puerto Rican grandmother. Just as their music breaks free from genre constraints, their journey crosses borders without the need for a metaphorical passport. You could visualise them lost in the moment as day drifts to night at Coachella, like spiritual cousins to Khruangbin, but you could just as equally imagine them amidst the psychedelic haze of the original Woodstock.
