"Superb view Oriental Edits that echo through the urban jungle.

"Forest Jams goes to the eastern part of the woods for this release, where cratemaster Mori Ra is waiting and ready to pull out the deep forest disco. This 12" will go down a treat on Camp Cosmic!" - Albion

"I'm inside the oriental forest, enjoying the rays of sun shining through the leaves" - Basso

"Take the first airliner to Mori's magical forest. You'll want to stay forever, wrapped in warm pads, getting lost in a labyrinth of MIDI percussion and gleaming synths." - Brandon Hocura (Invisible City)

"Another stellar release from Mori Ra. Oriental Forest is sure to get a tonne of play. Especially the B side! Oriental Gleaming Body is a masterpiece followed by Groovy is sure to make you feel very groovy indeed. Congrats Mori! Best." - Len Leise

"Beautiful musical journey starting with Chinese airlines, to get to Beijing and enjoy an afternoon in the Forbidden City, then moving to Japan, landing in Tokyo and come to an after hour, in a private club in the top floor of a skyscraper, dance with beautiful girls, go out to the club, to the closure, and with them, and fly for arrive in time to enjoy a beautiful sunset on a beach in Bali, after resting, fly to Bangkok to make shopping in the neighborhood of little Italy...then...wake up and realize it was only a dream, a beautiful dream with this great EP, thanks for the journey Mori Ra" - Leo Mas

Mari Kaneko - Get To Paradise

Early in 2018, the world was introduced to Mildlife through their debut album Phase. Few first releases amass praise from Mojo, The Guardian, BBC 6 Music, The Express, and Shindig, then go on to be celebrated by DJ Mag, Resident Advisor, Worldwide FM, Dummy and Indie Shuffle. But it’s precisely this eclectic mix of genres, tastes, and influences that brought Mildlife together, and what they committed to reflecting in their sound. After a surreal start to 2018, the four-piece completed a sold-out national tour of Australia, and recently announced plans to cross the oceans for their debut Europe and UK tours.

With the release of their debut imminent, Mildlife took retreat at Research Records HQ in Melbourne, staying overnight after recording each morning and afternoon. It resulted in the evolution of the title track, newly imagined and re-contextualised at increased tempo with swathes of improvisation throughout. The studio recording was the culmination of the song’s growth in a live setting, evolving on club stages and at festivals throughout 2017.

Mildlife’s knack for locked-in grooves and celestial tones features heavily across ‘Phase II’, a more than 11-minute sonic journey. Kevin McDowell's synth soars while Adam Halliwell’s growing prowess as a flautist is peppered over James Donald’s shimmering percussion. Shortly after, Tom Shanahan's phased bass appears, and the four lock into a groove that gives a subtle nod to 1960s Krautrock band, Can. It’s not long before ‘Phase II’ erupts into a cosmic jazz-funk that urges you to move. It sucks you in, free of worry and consequence; utterly otherworldly. It’s no surprise that the band has been described as “kaleidoscopic”, “irresistible” and “enchanting”. With Mildlife, you’ll always leave wanting more.

A1. By The Light Of The Pyramids
B1. Postcards From Gortupal

In an era of boundless self promotion, anonymity is a rare and precious thing. Listening to Trevor Jackson's NTS show one night we heard a glorious piece of music by something called Elite Beat. A quick search found 10 years worth of recorded material but not a single photo or youtube clip. They had made a record with Niger born guitarist Mdou Moctar but were based in Portland, Oregon. More questions than answers but we knew we had just heard one helluva cosmic link up! 

We still don't know what they look like but we can tell you Elite Beat is a 6 piece ensemble now in their 12th year as a musical collective. Their sound is non prescribed rhythm music with an emphasis on live playing, free form expression and dubbing techniques. Players who have absorbed the plethora of global grooves from dub, Ethiopoques and Tuareg guitar music (probably the odd Dead bootleg too). They aren't retromaniacs or here to revive a genre. Just some cats from Oregon talking that universal language, fueled by laugher and a vision of the eternal.
