Milosh
You Make Me Feel

THE REVIEW

ELECTRONIC FOR THE PEOPLE
When we talk about layering.

The debut of Canadian MIKE MILOSH attempts, successfully, a strange combination of IDM-style electronics and black-ish (but he's white) soul-r'n'b sensibility.
Thus, on a synthetic sound backdrop, built on solid foundations of bleeps, beats & loops, sporadic acoustic instruments and absolutely "organic", warm, human vocal inserts are grafted; the result is an occasionally exhilarating overlap game, two hypothetically distant sensibilities finding a truly "ideal" meeting point where the sidereal and post(but not dis-)human melodies of AROVANE, BOARDS OF CANADA, or early MANITOBA coexist with a Motown soul à la MARVIN GAYE.
Precisely MANITOBA (Canadian like Our Artist) provides with the latest "Up In Flames" the most fitting comparison, if not musically, then conceptually, with his hybrid and mutant musical creations where it's possible to identify (but not isolate) the electronic, acoustic, folk, psychedelic elements and so on contaminating.

There are eleven tracks in "You Make Me Feel," among which stand out: the title track placed at the beginning, immediately revealing its cards with an opening that seems to come from "Music Has The Right To Children" on which a you make me feel so happy sung with soul breaks in; "Your Taste," to listen to when "everything goes but doesn't go" and you need a bit of "peace"; "Something Good" to truly hope that something good is gonna happen; "Your Voice," where unease and "concrete" sounds appear; "Time Steals The Day," the most rhythmically tight, which finally gives way to the concluding "Frozen Pieces," to listen to on a rainy November Sunday, thinking of lost horizons that never return...
