To quote "Milosh":

I try to capture moments of my life in the songs that I create. I take things that, for whatever reason -- be it good, bad or sad, have moved me in some way. I wrap them up in sounds that I think are cool and fit what I am trying to say. I try to ride that thin line of mixing technology with some heart and I try not to cloud the original intention of the song. Basically I like pretty things and in turn I am trying to make pretty things.[5]
