1. Myles MacInne… Read Full Bio ↴There are two artists that are referred to as Mylo:
1. Myles MacInnes, born 1978 on the Isle of Skye, Scotland, has a trajectory that takes in a childhood on the Isle of Skye, low life in London and Paris and academia in Oxford and Los Angeles. In 2001, he returned to Scotland with one purpose – to submerge himself in music. In 2006, with his debut album unleashed on the world and numerous hit singles and sell-out tours under his belt, he has been hailed 'the saviour of dance music'.
The startling debut album, Destroy Rock & Roll demonstrates that MacInnes is equally happy warming the soul as he is rocking the dancefloor. "I'm just having fun in the studio," he begins. "It's got to have impact, otherwise I just don't see the point". Listening to his debut album, 'Destroy Rock & Roll' it's obvious that impact isn't his only weapon. The high-octane guitar chords, heavy-duty beats and raucous vocals of Destroy Rock & Roll, Muscle Car and Drop The Pressure are backed by the sun-kissed chords and Bay Area beats of tracks like Sunworshipper and Need You Tonight. While In My Arms harks back to his soft rock radio days.
Growing up on Skye, one of the furthest flung corners of Europe, MacInnes couldn't be too choosy about his sources of music. "Basically we had Atlantic 252," he explains. "It was this kind-of soft rock station on long-wave. We all believed it to be transmitted from a boat floating out in the mid-Atlantic."
Music continued to be part of his life when he left the island to go to Oxford University. "I think I was listening mainly to charity shop records at that point", he recalls. "What else? A real mixture – anything from Squarepusher to Serge Gainsburg. A couple of years later, he found himself taking up a scholarship to do a Philosophy PhD at UCLA, California. "It was a great time," he says, wistfully. "I had this old VW Scirocco, and a lot of time to just drive around with the radio on. There's this vibe to West Coast music, they're really living in paradise but they're still completely fucked-up, and you can hear that in everything from Randy Newman to Dr. Dre."
After a year inspired by his experiences travelling along the west coast, Myles deferred from UCLA and returned to Skye to start making records of his own. With influences ranging from seventies intellectuals Steely Dan and eighties soft-rockers Toto to current artists such as Zongamin and Franz Ferdinand, it's no wonder the results are so startling. "I don't know much about genres," he confesses. "To me, a good record is a good record, and that's it."
Tinkering around in his home studio In 2001 everything began falling into place. "I sent my first demos off and, straight away, got a couple of offers." After considering the deals, he decided to go it alone, and with the backing of a couple of friends Breastfed Music was born.
Following the release of his debut, Destroy Rock and Roll in May 2003, the response to Mylo has been overwhelming, with The Face describing him as "Scotland's answer to Royksopp". He has since signed a major record deal with Sony BMG who are also releasing the album in the US and Canada.
Mylo may operate alone in the studio but for his live performances he's joined by a quartet of sonic pioneers. With Mylo himself on keys, William Threlfall - synths and guitar, Lewis Harley - bass, Hector Macinnes – drums, and stunning visuals by The Phantom, who also accompanies Mylo on the larger DJ dates. The live shows have taken Myles and his band around the world, completing numerous sell-out headline tours and playing all the major festivals. More recently Mylo's DJ sets have taken him even further, including playing LA's Coachella Festival in 2006 immediately after Madonna. Mylo is now considered one of the heavyweight DJs of the world.
Destroy Rock & Roll is a refreshing and startling debut - a long-player that rivals the likes of Air's Moon Safari, Daft Punk's Homework and Royksopp's Melody AM. Now almost platinum in the UK and spawning several massive radio and club hits (4 top 20 singles), it has been cited by many, including Sir Elton John, as their 'album of the year'. And Mylo's remixes for the likes of The Scissor Sisters, The Killers, Kylie Minogue, and The Knife have defined clubland, confirming Mylo as one of the hottest remixers around.
The rest of 2006 sees Mylo working on the long awaited follow-up album to ‘Destroy Rock & Roll', as well as continuing his domination of the international club scene, with numerous DJ sets planned at venues and festivals around the world.

Guilty Of Love
Mylo Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Look straight in my eyes, tell me what you see?
Is it that same nigga that you fell for from the door
Ain't I that same nigga
We was both on the train goin' hard and then your shit surfaced
Takin' the phone in the bathroom, whisperin' with your girlfriends
Try to play me on some jerk shit
Numbers underneath the sole of your lady Timb's
Kid, I kept it tight for you
Turned nigga's down, didn't go out all them nights for you
And I ain't even that type'a bitch
I heard about Jones Beach and Luke's Freak Fest
Nevertheless I still put my faith in you
You was my dog, so I stayed faithful
But I'll be god damned if I be some nigga dumb bitch
It's fucked up it gotta go down like this
Yo, have you ever had a bitch that'll pop guns for you?
Type of nigga you'll do anything he ask to?
Snake bitch turn around and backstab you?
Crab nigga found out he fucked around too?
Threw her cash, threw in the smash, that's boo
Rockin' your 4 wheel drive and tattoo
Talk sweet thinkin' that he rockin' you to sleep?
Who me? Fall for that bullshit, you got it twist
You was once my bunny, now you want to act funny
I'm that same nigga from the first day who dress bummy
Same grimy style nigga, I'm still hungry
I never lost my thirst for takin' that money
I never lost my lust for chicks lovely
You met me on those terms, so that's how I'm runnin'
I still walk up in the crib 5 in the mornin'
And still count my cash before I crash
What you thought, you had a dunny? I ain't the one honey
You skim 20's out of my stacks of Benny's
You done found yourself a street life love, to death do us
Remember that shit, now everything's ass-backwards
We was more like Mickie and Mallory
You fouled out on me, found another man math in your belly bag, damn
I wish you luck though, you sneaky bum hoe
Catch you on the corner while I pass in my truck though
Yeah aight
First of all fuck you, and everything you own nigga
You got a lotta nerve, nigga
I should throw a brick through your shit, fuck your whips
It ain't about that, it's about you givin' out my dick
Or so it seems, I can only call it how I see it
Got hoes callin' the crib, hangin' up not speakin'
Come on, what type of shit is that?
What, I'm supposed to sit back, stay up all night for you to get back?
Like the world revolves around P
So while you strolled in at 5, I was comin' in at 3 3: 30
Niggas wanna play dirty
Fuck it, that's how you wanna rock let's get dirty
Yeah, condom wrappers in the back of the Azure
Talkin' 'bout you let your mans get off, your G ain't strong
I'm gone, you ain't worth the tears
You lost the best thing you ever had in your life, a waste of my years
Yo, have you ever had a bitch that'll pop guns for you?
Type of nigga you'll do anything he ask to?
Snake bitch turn around and backstab you?
Crab nigga found out he fucked around too?
Threw her cash, threw in the smash, that's boo
Rockin' your 4 wheel drive and tattoo
Talk sweet thinkin' that he rockin' you to sleep?
Who me? Fall for that bullshit, you got it twist
I might give out, but I'll never give in
We might as well, be friends, yes we have

Line by Line Meaning
Yo, come here darlin', have a seat, we need to speak
Let's have a conversation, sit down and talk with me
Look straight in my eyes, tell me what you see?
Be honest with me and tell me what you think of me
Is it that same nigga that you fell for from the door
Do you still see the same person you fell in love with from the beginning?
Ain't I that same nigga
I am still the same person
We was both on the train goin' hard and then your shit surfaced
We were both working hard on our relationship, but then I found out about your infidelity
Takin' the phone in the bathroom, whisperin' with your girlfriends
You were sneaking around, talking with your friends about me behind my back
Try to play me on some jerk shit
You were trying to deceive me and act like a jerk
Numbers underneath the sole of your lady Timb's
You were hiding something, possibly another man's number, in your shoe
Kid, I kept it tight for you
I was loyal and committed to you
Turned nigga's down, didn't go out all them nights for you
I rejected advances from other men and didn't go out partying without you
And I ain't even that type'a bitch
I'm not the kind of person who would cheat or lie
I heard about Jones Beach and Luke's Freak Fest
I heard rumors about you cheating at Jones Beach and a festival called Luke's Freak Fest
Nevertheless I still put my faith in you
Despite the rumors, I still trusted and believed in you
You was my dog, so I stayed faithful
I remained loyal to you because our relationship was important to me
But I'll be god damned if I be some nigga dumb bitch
I refuse to be deceived and treated like a fool
It's fucked up it gotta go down like this
I'm disappointed and upset that our relationship has come to this
First of all fuck you, and everything you own nigga
I'm angry and frustrated with you and wish you nothing but ill will
You got a lotta nerve, nigga
I can't believe you had the audacity to treat me this way
It ain't about that, it's about you givin' out my dick
It's not about material things, it's about your infidelity with other men
Niggas wanna play dirty
You and other men were playing unfair and dishonest
Fuck it, that's how you wanna rock let's get dirty
If you want to be deceitful, I'll treat you the same way
Talkin' 'bout you let your mans get off, your G ain't strong
You were bragging about letting other men sleep with you, which shows your lack of self-respect
You lost the best thing you ever had in your life, a waste of my years
You lost me, the best thing that ever happened to you, and now I feel like I wasted my time on you
I might give out, but I'll never give in
I may become weary and tired, but I will never compromise my values
We might as well, be friends, yes we have
Perhaps we should just be friends, considering what has happened between us

@Ash_G
Not sure if he was a one-hit wonder type of musician. Bought the album because I heard this one track during a BBC Radio 1 Breezeblock mix. Wasn't such a good purchase with hindsight.
