May: six artists you need to check out this month

After being picked up by electro royalty Boys Noize and Tiga, 23-year-old Pilo has emerged as a beacon for the new North American techno scene. With an unabashed rejection of current mainstream US dance trends, he’s turned his attention towards the grittier days of Detroit’s past, crafting an impressive discography of texture-driven, dancefloor-primed productions and playful sonic journeys.

Pilo’s ‘Flourishes’ EP is out now via Boys Noize
