Sometimes when you need music that understands you, that’s when you need it. Not loud or busy. That which rests still upon you and is true. Intimacy is exactly that kind of song. It locates you wherever you are. That’s what music like this is all about. It has no demands on you. It simply comes, it takes up residence and somehow already knows
MILYAM’s voice is an actual voice that will not be easily forgotten. It is warm and weighty at once, soft and yet quite sure. She doesn’t over-promise one moment. All is measured, thought upon, and the outcome is something very real, not performed. The production is the perfect fit for her. It’s just enough but not too much, electronic details delicately stacked on top of each other, without overpowering her. The whole thing has a late night feel to it, the type of sound that is better with headphones and a dark room. People say cinematic and it’s accurate, but it’s more personal than sometimes the word implies.
It’s a blend of R&B and atmospheric soul and MILYAM navigates that territory with ease. It’s her own design, her own label and it reflects her independence. It has a clarity of vision that you don’t always get. She knows just how she wants the music to be. Intimacy has already been picked up and is playing on Amazing Radio in the UK and the US. That recognition is very fitting. This is what curators and listeners are attracted to, and why. It’s honest, it’s beautiful, and it’s with you. MILYAM is constructing a reality. This is a great song for listening.
