Composed for 'Ears have Ears' on FBi Radio Sydney. Melbourne drummer Maria Moles exclusive piece focuses on the use of interweaving sustained drones/melodies with scattered rhythms, creating a dense sound world of ambience for the listener. 

Maria Moles has performed extensively as part of a band and solo, supporting such acts as The Internet, Methyl Ethel, Polica, King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizzard, Jaala and Hiatus Kiayote as well as performing at such festivals as Women’s Jazz Festival, Falls Festival, Melbourne International Jazz Festival, Tilde New Music Festival, Sugar Mountain Festival, Mona Foma and Dark Mofo. Beyond this she's also collabarated with the likes of Marcus Mckenzie's Hyperspirit, Hobart Improvisers Collective, MIUC Big Band, Lucas Abela, Francis Plagne and the Josh Kelly Trio. 

Maria's solo project 'Mondo Flockard' explores the use of layering sounds/rhythms played on either drum kit/percussion which are then electronically manipulated through the use of filters and pitch modulators. Her self-titled EP was released in 2016 through Tonelist, and was listed on Avant Music News under Best Albums of the Year 2016. Ian Parsons (PBS Sounds From Beneath the Sound Barrier presenter)  described it as "drumming taken into a new territory, hovering somewhere around sharp-edged electro-acoustics and unsettled ambience".

Our second release and the debut single from Melbourne four piece, Mildlife is finally here! 

Narrowing down the group'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 that mines jazz, psych and disco for its irresistible groove.

"The Magnificent Moon" a 9 minute psychedelic disco journey is the opening track taken from Mildlife’s debut LP "Phase" due for release early 2018. Capturing the spirit of the band, this kaleidoscope jam is the interplanetary path between jazz, funk and disco with the perfect amalgamation of cosmic electronics and soulful acoustic instrumentation. 

Tom Shanahan explains its entrancing grip, “The Magnificent Moon feels like the veteran journeyman to the rest of the album. I’m not sure if that’s because it was written first or because it seems to know what it wants and has a more considered direction. It never really second guesses itself except for maybe just before the outro when he realises he may have journeyed too far and his space suit has a hole in it. But then he just jams some gum in the hole and gets on with it anyway.”
