Milow

Milow is an act on the Starverb influence map. Their sound grew out of Janis Sahraoui, Pink Floyd, 50 Cent, Justin Timberlake and Timbaland. Those roots explain a lot about how Milow arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as Max Giesinger, Racoon, James Blunt, Admiral Freebee and James Morrison, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into dEUS, The Black Box Revelation, Absynthe Minded, Novastar and Arid, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 34 connections around Milow, reaching back through Janis Sahraoui and forward to dEUS. Follow any of those threads to keep travelling the influence between bands and genres on Starverb.
