Before he began releasing and performing music under the moniker nimino, Milo Evans’ musical journey started in his teenage years growing up in the UK as a way to channel his ADHD. Beginning with simple loop-stitching on an Asus laptop, music quickly became an obsession. By the time he finished studying music technology in Brighton, he had created the equivalent of eight albums’ worth of material. His first release as nimino in 2013—a slo-mo, bass-inflected take on Pixies’ Where Is My Mind—marked the beginning of his career when it amassed hundreds of thousands of plays on SoundCloud and earned him the title of Huffington Post’s “Artist of the Month.” By 2020, nimino had cultivated an engaged community across his social platforms and launched a series called songs for people you may know, where he created custom songs for fans.
