One More Time: Beat Bakery and MILENA parties on that sensational future island on Feel Alive

Posted on 13 July 2023

With fun energy brewing like a tasty iced tea in the summertime after a long walk, Beat Bakery and MILENA have dropped a sunshine-filled daydream-like single to get those legs feeling ready for a good night on Feel Alive.

Beat Bakery is a London-based dance-pop band who are joined by fellow Londoner and A&R Factory favourite MILENA, the lovable Montenegro-born indie pop singer-songwriter/pianist who kindly took us into the Secret Garden for a picnic in May.

Getting us all flustered and ready for a night to remember, Beat Bakery and MILENA change all moods with a sit-back-and-listen-on-full volume song to remember.

Feel Alive from Beat Bakery and MILENA is a tiger-biting single to tear up the dance floor with. There is a sizzling array of punchy beats and ear-splitting vocals to get enthused about here. Exactly what the doctor ordered some would say.

Soaked with fresh energy that feels like a beach party waiting to happen, we are thrilled to the core by a happy song made for all the right reasons.

Listen up on Spotify.

Be the change you want to see: MILENA synergises our emotions with The Secret Garden

Posted on 2 May 2023

After impressing all with her loving single from 2019 called Summer of Heat & Spice, MILENA guides us to the peaceful resting spot on the heartwarming new track to rejoice with despite the stresses of the world, The Secret Garden.

MILENA is a London, UK-based Montenegro-born indie pop singer-songwriter and piano player who is known for her soothing vocals and affectionate nature.

”Coming from a music and artistic family, her musical journey started at a tender age. She began playing classical guitar and piano, then, later on, studied at the Music Academy in Montenegro. Along the way, she won various prizes, participated in many festivals and appeared on children’s TV programmes, in musical theatre and TV commercials.” ~ MILENA

Silencing the noise and skyrocketing so high into the sky with flowers tucked in her hair, MILENA is a rather stunning soundtrack which is surely exactly the kind of song humanity needs more of.

The Secret Garden from London, UK-based indie pop singer-songwriter MILENA is a rather pacifying song all about teaching us where the better days are. With no shoes on and brushing away the dark thoughts, we are treated to something so sweet and special.

Reminding us of her signature vocals which shall ease the pain of the burning world, this is a rather delightful effort from a musical angel loved all over the world.

MILENA – Everyday Remix: Rapturous EDM

Posted on 27 December 2017

MILENA’s debut single from her second album “Everyday” was a flawless masterpiece, even before Nick Van Gelder got his EDM paws on the track to create the vibrantly shallow new remix.

In the original track the London based singer Milena Lainovic captured that sunset boulevard glow in her sound, by constructing the ultimate anthem to listen to as the sun comes up. Fans of her music are either going to love or hate the remix which sadly detracts away from the resonance in her old school beats which she orchestrates around the poignancy of her vocal ability. The Van Gelder remix doubled the duration of the track by packing in repetitive beats and more loops than you can shake a stick at which will no doubt appeal to EDM Dance fans with a penchant for the contemporary trance sound. Yet, I still can’t help but feel an injustice has befallen this track, as MILENA’S voice is swallowed by the sonic backdrop of the remix.

Milena Releases Uplifting Track “He”

Posted on 26 September 2017

London based singer-songwriter, piano player and all round multi-talented performer has released her second album Everyday featuring “He”, an uplifting track representing a zealous confidence across all musical platforms, and fusing a classical element to the pop genre. Milena is an artist who takes her career seriously. Through every ounce of detail in writing her own songs, the sheer positivity in her performance and not to mention the amount of passion she expresses in her stride. Yet, what stands out in “He”, is the nonchalant attitude she depicts; Milena’s cheery attitude is an obvious natural element of her character, and is what gives her music personal style.

The subject of “He” is traditionally meagre, but the performance of Milena is what increases the song’s prolific competence. Milena passionately sings, “He gives me all that I need/Is it possible to fall in love with him”, it’s not so much the lyrics which draws us into the track, but the devotion Milena shares with music. As the track reaches its close, Milena puts the nail in the coffin with an unexpected solo on the piano, ending the song as it started, with pure elegancy.
