Mylo

So previous to last night I had heard the name Mylo and for whatever reason thought the he was some sort of commercial house producer that was big in Europe, and as a result I completely over looked him. I have heard his remix of No More Conversations, and Sia - Breathe Me, both of which are good, and heard of the Album Rock and Roll.

Anyways last night after seeing laidback luke, a few of us are sitting around at my place and my roommate puts on Destroy Rock and Roll and I was blown away. I had heard not one of these tracks. All of them are such amazing tracks to thick full of layers, and produced so well. I couldn't believe this album had been out for 5 years. I guess I'm wondering, does everyone else think this is a great album because I don't seem to ever remember any topics about Mylo or any of his tracks, or did I just somehow ignore him on the assumption that he was cheese?

yeah i always liked mylo- in my arms which sampled Bette Davis Eyes..havnt heard much from him recently..but a couple years ago his electro sound was pretty big.

Always loved Mylo

He hasn't made an original production since 2006

In My Arms wasn't all that special, Mylo's 'original' that is. But the Tocadisco Mix was superb.

But ye, he's made some hot tracks in his day.

that whole cd = bomb. always in my car at arms length to throw into the cd player.

I was a big fan of Mylo

What happened to him?

Cocaine.

No sure if he's clean yet.

you were under a rock back then i guess. everyone played his tracks, even tiesto. what makes that album even more impressive is he did it completely on a hand me down imac in his bedroom and it was his first crack at making any kind of music whatsoever. freeform five and others did a little bit of post prod but essentially mylo did the whole thing.

btw, he played a sneak peak of his coming album on radio 1 jan 2009 recently, track called "I'm back".

i read somewhere last summer that he got some rare disease in his ears, causing him to be temporarily deaf for a while, so that's prob why no one has heard from him

otto's journey!

Does not fempute.





Either way, if he is getting back on his feet production wise, then happy days.

The ear infection rumor is true (not sure about the timeframe), he was supposed to play Los Angeles but had to cancel because of that..

I think that was in late 2006 early '07.
Made on a hand me down imac in his bedroom, on the isle of skye.

best track!

and i seem to remember something about a new album in the summer

I am a big mylo fan. I always play his CD for people who claim they hate "techno". His new track didn't do much for me though.

+1

That album was great. Lots of great tunes. Would definitely like to hear more from him.

Mylo released his debut album, Destroy Rock & Roll in 2004, on the Breastfed Recordings label, which he co-owns.
Mylo produced the album on a computer in his own bedroom

That's hot.

from wikipedia:

"BBC Radio 1 played a world exclusive of a track by Mylo on 23 January 2009. The title of the track is unconfirmed, however Radio 1 referred to it as 'I'm Back', because, as Annie Mac stated, "he (Mylo) sent it to us with the file titled I'm Back".[4]"

so i was close, its not called im back thats just the file name. i heard them say it when it aired but its hard to understand british accent sometimes.

One of my all-time favorites...

If anyone gets a chance to check out Aeroplane's Disco Balerica mix, the very first track is a new track from Mylo titled "Macrobiotica". I believe his album is coming out later this year? No idea.



But yes, the ear infection happened and rendered him virtually useless dj/studio wise for the better part of a year.

thats the only reason i know him, great track

its got that goofy feel to it, like a cartoon character fumbling around while on a journey

I loved Drop The Pressure and the mash-up with Miami Sound Machine. His album is decent but it was really hyped at the time, and I didn't think it was worth that hype.

Yeah? I don't recall it being overhyped until way after it actually got released. I remember constantly hearing about Drop The Pressure and Destroy Rock & Roll about a year after it came out, that got annoying.

As soon as it hit MTV.

edit: As soon as MTV started hitting it sounds better.

I'm guessing it was considerably bigger in the UK than elsewhere. I remember Mylo being hailed as "the new Daft Punk". The album sold over 100,000 copies and every single went into the charts before it was picked up by a major label.

His album was namedropped in Spin Magazine. Dance music is NEVER namedropped in Spin Magazine. Well, seldom namedropped ever since they gave The Prodigy the cover back in 97.
