Ali returns with Patterns, a six-track EP that builds on the narrative of their previous album, Malaka. Fusing Middle Eastern musical influences with the vibrant grooves of Funk, Disco, Afrobeat, and the psychedelic hues of Indonesian/Malay soundscapes, Patterns offers a tapestry of moods that feels both dynamic and cohesive.
The EP draws inspiration from the intricate motifs of traded carpets—symbols of cultural exchange and storytelling—while leaning into a more cinematic approach, with tracks that could easily score a film's shifting narrative. Taking the 70s sound as the main reference, yet Ali doesn’t want to get caught in the past and forget to create something new or merely a revivalist. Ali reimagines the references into something distinctly fresh, bridging past and present as they pave the way for their second full-length album.
Featuring members of Kelompok Penerbang Roket, The SIGIT etc.
