For this bout, London percussionist and singer Mo Kolours will make his Australian debut, showcasing his mix of soul, dub, hip hop, the ‘Sega music’ of his Mauritian homeland and various “I’ve thought about music for most of my life, contemplating the ins and outs, like, ‘how is this guy making that noise’. But I like to work on instincts and feeling and just see what happens,” says the Gilles Peterson-endorsed producer of his musical inspirations.

Doors for this Red Bull Music Academy showcase open at 8pm, and entry is free for those who RSVP via Dash Tickets. other electronic styles.
