Mo Kolours’ EP1: Drum Talking arrives as a richly textured collection of rhythm-obsessed vignettes, blending street-wise sampling with organic percussion and soulful distortion.

The opener, “Intro”, sets stage with warm nuance and anticipatory hush. “Bakiraq” rolls next with off-beat drums and nods to Sega memory, before the title track “Drum Talking” lanes out straight, percussive and direct. “Biddies” and “Dead of Night” explore voice and atmosphere in shadowed registers, while “8 Hours” pushes into stretched loops before “Outro: I'm The Drum” closes with a reflective echo of ritual.

Across seven tracks, the EP feels like a journey through dusk and dawn - sunlight filtered through fragments, beat-driven and hauntingly human.
