Premiere: Mo Kolours 'Mini Culcha'


We've been keeping a close eye on Mo Kolours' EP2: Banana Wine — a project that pairs complex Mauritian sega-inspired rhythms with electronic loops, hip-hop/dub sensibilities and, at times, near-spoken vocals. "Mini Culcha" is a faster-paced concoction featuring intricate acoustic percussion, electronic piano hits and a sampled  female voice speaking of thank you's and reincarnation. Thank you very much, indeed. EP2: Banana Wine is out March 19, you can pre-order it now.
