Alon Mylo isn’t afraid to explore the unknown, and that’s often expressed in his music. The singer does wonders by fusing indie/alternative pop elements with a melting pot of experimental sounds. His artistic style is reminiscent of musicians like Tame Impala, Toro y Moi, or Mac DeMarco.
While the production exudes a sense of calmness, Alon Mylo takes a moment to speak about the tough stuff. Between the lines, he digs deep into self-analyzing and progression. At the same time, he encourages others to appreciate the finer things in life, a la “Sundance.”
His newest intergalactic-styled offering, “Space Donuts” elaborates on a lost phase every young adult faces at some point in life. Dark organ chords and 808 eventually follow the beat.
Comparing the song’s title to how we sometimes “float by,” the musician assures others that every cloud has a silver lining. In like manner, he stresses how important it is to live life to the fullest. No one should let doubt or fear hold them back from loving hard and making irreplaceable memories. Throughout “Space Donuts,” he crosses over between a smooth and resounding vocal range. Given the lyrical context, this new record is prone to move a listener to do some shadow work of their own.

There are so many things I love, it can change every day from classical music to Japanese music to classics like Pink Floyd and the Beatles, and more of an alternative stuff like Radiohead, Tame Impala, Air and Bjork to hip hop and trap like Wu Tang and Travis Scott, but I really like a lot.
