M1LDL1FE

Singapore

M1LDL1FE (pronounced “mild-life”) cuts across the indie-pop grain, weaving together lush electronic textures and eclectic dance grooves into the pop sensibilities of guitar-driven indie music of the early 2000s. Formed in 2012 by bassist David Siow, drummer Jeryl Yeo, guitarist Tan Peng Sing, the band later recruited Paddy Ong to take on lead vocals. First conceived as a university hall cover band, they wrote their first originals in college dorm basements, garnering attention with their brazen indie-rock pop sound and energetic live shows. They debuted their first EP, “PAIRS” in 2015, receiving critical acclaim from the local press and were slated to be “one of the most exhilarating new acts to emerge from Singapore’s burgeoning indie-pop scene”.

Fast forward a couple years, the quartet found themselves opening for venerable acts like Last Dinosaurs, Walk the Moon, Travis and Death Cab for Cutie back in their native Singapore, and even went on a few touring stints in Southeast Asia, China, and Spain. In 2017 the four-piece emerged from the studio with a new sound and material. Armed with a fresh and grittier sonic palette, the quartet released their eponymous EP in July that year. The band has spent the last two years performing both locally and abroad (South Korea, Thailand, Taiwan and Philippines) while grinding their gears in the studio working on their first full-length album due out soon.
