With Chorus, Mildlife expand on the foundations laid by Automatic, delivering a more ambitious and fully realised exploration of their groove-driven, genre-blurring sound. The albu m pushes further into extended composition, emphasising repetition, evolution and immersive rhythmic flow. The band’s signature interplay is more refined than ever, with bass, drums, synths and guitar working together in tightly controlled yet fluid arrangements. Tracks develop patiently, building layers of texture and momentum over time, rewarding listeners who engage with the album as a complete experience. Drawing from krautrock, jazz fusion and vintage electronic influences, Chorus balances technical precision with an instinctive, groove-first approach. There’s a greater sense of cohesion across the record, giving it a strong narrative arc from start to finish. For fans of Khruangbin, Can and contemporary jazz-funk crossover acts, Chorus stands as a confident and expansive release that further cements Mildlife’s reputation as one of the most compelling instrumental bands of the current era.
