    Miloe Releases New Single, “floating”

    Congolese-American singer-songwriter Miloe has released his plush, emotional new single, “floating,” which perfectly embodies the feeling of infatuation. The new song is accompanied by a black and white video directed by Samson Melkamu, which finds Miloe with his guitar and fuzzed-out synths in the Tunnel of Terror caves in St. Paul, providing a fitting soundtrack for the eerie backdrop. Watch the video now below.

    Miloe is the musical project of Bob Kabeya, a 21-year old artist based in Minneapolis. Growing up in the Democratic Republic of Congo, the sonic imprint of Miloe’s days there stayed palpable when his family made the 7000 mile journey to Minneapolis to join their father, who had been granted asylum three years prior. Suddenly dropped into the land of such punk legacies as Husker Dü, The Replacements, and Soul Asylum and Prince, Bobby’s musical destiny had perhaps unwittingly been cut out for him. While working his way through the Twin Cities’ basement show circuit, Kabeya chipped away at Miloe’s debut EP. After a member of Beach Bunny discovered his music, Miloe was asked to open for the skyrocketing Chicago band at a Minneapolis gig. Following a marathon three-day studio session with Hippo Campus’ Jake Luppen transformed a handful of demos Kabeya had stashed away into the Greenhouse EP, which was eventually released in October 2020. The project showcased a sunnier, pop-oriented side to Miloe. He nabbed a hit with lead single “Winona,” which was later gilded with vocals from Jamila Woods and Vagabon on a 2021 remix.
