Full Transcription of Mylo’s story:

Hello, I’m Mylo Choy. I live in Brooklyn, New York. Most of my career has been working with youth and making art and music. They seem different, but a lot of them are the same because all of it is about how people feel. *laughs* This E.P “Night is like the Ocean” was recorded upstate in Livingston Manor, New York. A friend of a friend is the engineer and producer on it. I’ve worked with him several times. First, with my old band Small Talk and I just really liked his vibe. And also the recording studio is this house that has windows all the way around and you can see the snow. Winter is such a great time to record because you really can’t do much else. I just always like working with him. It’s really nice to work with someone where you could ask someone their honest opinion and they’ll tell you and they’ll always go with your decision at the end of the day, because I am such a control freak, especially when it comes to art things. I think because it’s so personal. I’d like to get to a point where I’m a little more collaborative.
