Milosh, from Toronto, Canada, debuted his first album, You Make Me Feel ("Top 10 Electronic Albums," iTunes 2004), as a work reveling in the joys of new love. It celebrated everything from his girlfriend's taste to her positive presence in his life. But then they broke up. Recorded in the 12 months after his relationship's collapse, Meme explores all facets of the newly-single male experience: heartache, loneliness, lust, guilt, soul searching, and eventually, romantic rebirth.
Says Milosh, "It begins with 'It's Over,' a song about my breakup with the girl 'You Make Me Feel' was about, and ends with 'Run Away,' about that need to get away from pain, from the dull routine of life, to be in a new place with my new girlfriend." The truly fascinating and voyeuristic moments, however, happen in-between these two big life changes.
On "You Fill Me," Milosh explores a casual sex experience, providing erotic imagery that is at turns sensual, violent, and spiritual. While much of the song delights in this orgasmic revelry, one can hear in Milosh's voice a desire for something more, a penetration of not just skin, but soul.
On "The City," Milosh reflects on his life so far with a hint of nostalgia. "The City was born out of a walk in old Montréal with one of my best friends from when I was young," says Milosh. "It was really hot outside, the air was thick, the streets were poorly lit, and there was no one around us. The city felt almost empty. You get a really clear sense of the history of the city on nights like that for some reason. It got me thinking about my history, my life up til then, and whether or not I had achieved the goals that I had set out for myself."
These candid tales would only be half-victories without a worthy backdrop, though, and the music here never fails to impress. Milosh's nuanced production subtly shades the emotional content of his lyrics, adeptly capturing every fluctuation in mood. Gliding on shuffling beats and post-Blade Runner keyboards, Meme fits comfortably alongside Junior Boys and Boards of Canada, using a broad electronic palette to frame experiences charged with raw feeling.
By album's end, Milosh has come full circle, back in love with a new woman, the pain of his previous breakup seemingly erased. He puts it best himself when he sings, "These scars from lovers look like scratches from strangers." These are deeply personal tales meant for discovery by present and future generations- generations bound to make the same mistakes and learn the same lessons in love.

Hold me
Milosh Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Don't stop giving me that space
It's a kick in the ribs I have to hide this side
Oh, I love the way you let it hit you
Oh, I love the way you let me kiss
Oh, I love the way I fit you
Oh, I love the way you kiss
So come on hold me in this space
Before I lose this feeling
So come on hold me in this space
We're going all the way
Nothing can divert us
Love that we're each other with each other
No faces to hide, no faulty sides
Peeling off the layers, eating each other hearts
I feel it all, hmm I feel it all
Ignore that pace and make that face
You make when no one's watching
Ignore that pace and make that face
You make when no one's watching
Ignore that pace and make that face
You make when no one's watching
Ignore that pace and make that face
You make when no one's watching
So come on hold me in this space
Before I lose this feeling
So come on hold me in this space
So come on hold me in this space
Before I lose this feeling
So come on hold me in this space
Oh I love our way, there's nothing wrong
Oh, I'll find a way it's growing strong
Oh it's coming near it's already fated, as if we were bated
It's ringing in our ears
But someone will hate it, someone will hate it
So baby don't stop loving that pain away
Your lips taste like that place I belong, this room in you
So baby don't stop loving that pain away
Your lips taste like that place I belong, this room in you
So baby don't stop loving that pain away
Your lips taste like that place I belong, this room in you
So baby don't stop loving that pain away
Your lips taste like that place I belong, this room in you

Not everyone will approve of our relationship
So baby don't stop loving that pain away
Let's comfort each other through the hard times
Your lips taste like that place I belong, this room in you
Being with you feels like home, like I belong here
