"Do the Lov-o-lution" is the title of Miko´s new album. The German singer and Grimme-TV-Prize winner released her first solo albums in the 80s. Since then she is considered to be one of Germany´s most outstanding world class artists. She spent the 90s in California and finally went back to Berlin. Her new album sounds very universal and charms the listener with a high level entertainment quality: welcome to "Vegas on Venus". In cooperation with the producers "CJ Bomb" (“Club 69†Grammy für Madonna Remixe, Elton John, Depeche Mode uvm.), "Mel Gold" and the ambient Nu-Jazz Duo "Hallo Gen" she created an electronic dance power pop album with uplifting melodies and sensual sound scapes out of this world.
Miko´s voice touches you with tender power and charismatic feelings. She sings about underwater love streams, electrifying dream sex, extraterrestrial groove contacts, the global climate crisis, and how to save the world with a lov-o-lution. Miko & Taco celebrate a remake of the old Fred Astaire classic "Puttin´on the Ritz" with a hot tribal R&B Ritz Party. The whole album seduces you into a world of sensual & soulful sounds, just the right way to dance and fly for true music lovers...
