Phase, by Mildlife

Phase

by Mildlife

supported by

Smekermann Spacey and dreamy with a cool, laid-back groove. Reminds me of Air if they were less overtly poppy and more jazzy and complex. Make no mistake, though - this is almost as catchy. It's just less direct. The guitar solo in The Gloves Don't Bite is dope as heck, by the way. Favorite track: The Gloves Don't Bite.

Gravity Feeder Saw these cats play at the Melbourne Zoo last night in support of Stereolab and they were A M A Z I N G! Had to seek them out immediately!

about

Narrowing down Mildlife’s style into a genre is almost impossible, as they bond over the desire to push musical boundaries. No strangers to the Melbourne band scene, the four old friends have been drawing crowds through an epic journey at intimate venues and festivals for the best part of the past 4 years. Developing a tight live show bolstered by wild improvisation, the group have left punters itching for their first full length studio album “Phase” that mines jazz, psych and disco for its irresistible groove.

Capturing the spirit of the band, the 6 track debut LP of kaleidoscope jams is the interplanetary path between jazz, funk and disco with the perfect amalgamation of cosmic electronics and soulful acoustic instrumentation.

“A melting pot of musical sensations, the group combine progressive 1970s sounds with electronic krautrock, backed by a mixture of rhythmic funk, house, and dream-pop, to create an addictive atmosphere that’s illustrated perfectly by their first single ‘The Magnificent Moon’. An introduction to their highly anticipated debut LP due out early next year on Research Records, the nine minute masterpiece is a colossal adventure throughout the group's psyche.” - Dummy Mag
