Singer-songwriter and guitarist Miloe has released the title track off his upcoming EP, gaps, out September 16th via Loma Vista Recordings. The playful song, which touches on music’s abilities to separate us from our anxieties, follows Miloe’s previous singles, “make ur way” ft. 80purppp and “floating”. Listen to it now below.
The upcoming EP is a succinct collection of deftly-produced indie-pop layered with Afrobeats, making Miloe a poetic voice for the young African diaspora.
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, Greenhouse. The project showcased a sunnier, pop-oriented side to Miloe.
