Imagine a flickering arcade in Brighton at 2am: music seeps from the speakers, boxy torn-cone distortion and octave-dropped vocals coalescing with synths that shimmer like neon through fog. Itās a collision of sugar and grit, blown-out pop songs echoing in empty halls. Thatās Milo Korbenski, a figure as enigmatic as his sound, forever masked in white, crowned with a cowboy hat, wrapped in denim.
His third and final single from the upcoming album āSex Angelā - āBedrockā - shifts the pace into indie slacker-ballad territory.
āIt was the last song I recorded for the album, over two consecutive daysā, Korbenski explains. āAfter the first day of recording, I dreamed I was listening to the song, it was really strange, soupy, distorted, the vocals stretched and weirdā.
āI woke up remembering that sound and wanted to get it on the trackā, he goes on, āso I added synths, pushed the distortion, and shifted all the vocals down. I loved it, and it fit the glitchy, dusty feel of the other tracks on the record. The lyrics in the second verse are my favourite on the whole album. Tbh, I think itās probably my favourite trackā.
