A superb chill-out, spacey, fusion-psychedelic crossover disco mellow groove reminiscent of Herbie Hancock and Azimuth from the late ’70s. The masterpiece debut album “Phase” by the four-piece Melbourne, Australia group MILDLIFE, originally released in 2018 on Research Records, has been hard to come by in recent years, and has been commanding high prices on the secondhand market. However, after the label’s 2024 limited reissue sold out immediately, a long-awaited re-press (limited edition) has finally been released—for the first time in about two years—on their own label, Mildlife!!
