Mo Kolours

Mo Kolours draws on a wide range of musical influences and describes his use of percussion as "investigating rhythm in my own way."[6] DJ Magazine described his sound as "part hip-hop, part funk, part dub, part electronic".[7] The producer has spoken of his desire to unite similarities found amongst "bits of music all over the world",[8] ranging from the traditional sega music of Mauritius (as introduced to him by his father[7]) to modern hip-hop.[9] Such eclecticism has led to comparisons to esteemed beat pioneer Madlib,[10] whilst Resident Advisor claimed that "no-one sounds quite like Mo Kolours".[11] In May 2011, he released the first of a trilogy of EPs for One-Handed Music; entitled EP1: Drum Talking. EP 2:Banana Wine (2012) and EP3:Tusk Dance (2013) followed respectively, and were generally well received by critics.[12] Deenmamode's debut full-length release garnered further interest, with influential radio DJs such as Gilles Peterson and Benji B endorsing the record on their shows. In 2014, digital electronic music magazine Resident Advisor asked Mo Kolours to contribute to their prestigious online podcast stream.[13] Following this, Deenmamode's most recent and fourth EP for One-Handed Music, How I (Rhythm Love Affair), was made available for download in March 2015.[14] Pitchfork stated that while Mo Kolours' music has "a rich, minimalistic approach that grows more contagious as it plays" the record "lacked a strong anchor".[15]
