Milosh

A classically trained cellist, jazz aficionado, Neil Young fan and devotee of left-field electronica, the Toronto-based Michael Milosh does not fit conventional pop categories - and nor does his music. His first two albums, You Make Me Feel and Meme, earned warm reviews that likened his different musical shadings to Radiohead, Depeche Mode, Cocteau Twins, Jamie Lidell, Brian Eno and even caramel-voiced R&B crooner D'Angelo.Milosh makes music for the mind, body and spirit. Introspective, intimate, sensual electro-folk steeped in perfumed melancholy and luscious romance. Combining beats, samples, guitars, strings and the most silken falsetto voice since prime-time Smokey Robinson, the third Milosh album 'iii' takes the listener on an emotional journey through an exquisitely beautiful musical landscape. But the truth is, Milosh sounds too much like himself for any of these labels to really stick. And 'iii' contains his richest, most luminously seductive music yet. A musical journal of exile and loneliness, sunshine and birdsong, it was written and largely recorded during a year-long stay on the tropical Thai island of Koh Samui. The tracks on 'iii' combine the best of both Milosh's cerebral electronica and soulful singer-songwriter sides, stirring deep emotions with lush arrangements, honeyed vocals and delicately deconstructed beats. From the softly weeping strings of 'Another Day' to the weightless, airy melancholy of 'Gentle Samui', many of these tracks come in various shades of blue. Behind its alluring surface sheen, 'Remember The Good Things' is a ghostly soulman serenade steeped in heartache and confusion.
