After captivating listeners with his heartfelt track “Dead” in September, London-based queer singer-songwriter, producer Be Like Milo returns with another brilliantly authentic release, “CTRL ALT DEL.” This new song enhances the narrative he’s building, showcasing the challenges and complexities he faces in the world of hook-ups. Be Like Milo artfully illustrates the intricate situations that arise when dating, offering listeners an unfiltered glimpse into his experiences. His candid storytelling reveals the highs and lows of his romantic adventures.
While the focus of the recent track “Dead” is on the pain of being manipulated. The follow-up release “CTRL ALT DEL” marks a turning point where Be Like Milo asserts his power, swiftly discerning that a recent hook-up fell short of his hopes.
In fact, Be Like Milo transcends merely referencing a single hook-up. He finds satisfaction in calling out the trash boys who have fallen short of his standards. Think about it: you’re drawn in by someone’s appearance, and they seem to tick all the boxes of an ideal date. But then, as you get in deeper, beneath the sheets, you realize that underneath the attractive facade, this guy is only out for himself. Furthermore, he is oblivious to the need for mutual feelings in what should be a shared experience.
However, Be Like Milo is ready to confront these shortcomings, using his distinctive approach to handle self-important individuals. He envisions a world where you could simply erase those who don’t contribute positively. Thus imagining how effortless it would be to eliminate the toxic people from our lives. Namely, using the CTRL ALT DEL command on a computer keyboard.
In this track, he brilliantly harnesses a dynamic hyper-alt-pop musicality that vividly captures the chaos within. His exuberance and piercing clarity skillfully convey a complex, hyper-emotional landscape. The artistry of Be Like Milo stands out remarkably. If his upcoming tracks can rise to the impressive standard set by “Dead” and “CTRL ALT DEL,” I am confident he will transcend the label of a mere debut EP, one trick pony, and establish a future-forward presence in the music scene.
