It has been said there is no greater bond than the one between a boy (or girl) and his dog … and I wholeheartedly agree. I can’t imagine life without my sweet little guy Louie and his puppy kisses. So it bums me to know that this latest track “Misha” from ilo ilo is a love story about a dog. Looks like one of the young producers in this electronic indie dance duo recently went though a break-up … and she took the dog, Misha. This is the 3rd and final single from their Dream Tapes EP. It’s full of smooth whispering vocals with swirly synths over indie electro beats, slick as hell! Stay strong ilo ilo - missing her is hard but hopefully it will get better. SMOOCH!

ILO ILO - ROLL W/ CARA BISHOP
Music, Original MixCommentTaking the entire music industry by storm with an allusive swagger, ilo ilo returns from the shadows with their latest single, “roll” boasting the crisp, feminine vocals of Cara Bishop- lead vocalist of Austin’s sibling trio The Bishops. After receiving a cryptic message from the mysterious electronic ensemble, and embarking on a 48 hour scavenger hunt around New York City, Instagram user cjohnson1992 documented his exploration around the Big Apple as he discovered clues that would apparently lead him to a final resting place of artistic revelation. After 2 days running around New York City in a Black Mirror-esque fashion, the handsome Instagram user stumbled upon a USB that held ilo ilo’s digitally suave, robust single, “roll.” Leaving the pressure of the offical release on the NYC resident, the intentionally leaked track is a cosmic fusion of digital sounds and feminine prowess. Rising tides of algorithmic production dive into a bass-centric atmosphere radiating a uniqueness defined only by ilo ilo. These pioneers of electronic music leave us with one daunting question- who is ilo ilo? Join us as we become moving parts in their continuous riddle, bound by the mystic creation of music.
