Mylo

Destroy Rock and Roll

[RCA; 2006]

Rating: 8.4

Isn't this fun: Destroy Rock and Roll, the first full-length album from Scotland's Myles Macinnes, is just now available in the United States, along with a trio of inessential bonuses. Those of you who are already familiar with Mylo-- dance-music enthusiasts, British people-- are probably over it already: The singles from this LP have been commercial staples since their original vinyl releases, absolute sure shots for making people happy. Plenty of folks have already completed the process of loving them, getting tired of hearing them all the time, and then filing them away as classics. Lucky for those of you who haven't had that experience yet, there are reasons for the rush: This music packs the same exuberant gut-level joy as Daft Punk's "One More Time", Basement Jaxx's "Romeo", and Outkast's "Hey Ya". Only, well, even easier than that. Mylo is like a dance-music Ramones: What he does isn't very complicated. Technically, he's not even very good at it. But that's all just part of the treat.

    • Wait, Burning Man is going online-only? What does that even look like?
      You could have been forgiven for missing the announcement that actual physical Burning Man has been canceled for this year, if not next. Firstly, the nonprofit Burning Man organization, known affectionately to insiders as the Borg, posted it after 5 p.m. PT Friday. That, even in the COVID-19 era, is the traditional time to push out news when you don't want much media attention. 
      But secondly, you may have missed its cancellation because the Borg is being careful not to use the C-word. The announcement was neutrally titled "The Burning Man Multiverse in 2020." Even as it offers refunds to early ticket buyers, considers layoffs and other belt-tightening measures, and can't even commit to a physical event in 2021, the Borg is making lemonade by focusing on an online-only version of Black Rock City this coming August.    Read more...
