Originally from Edmonton, Alberta, Milano is a longtime DJ in Toronto's ballroom community, and is queer and non-binary.[4] The album was launched in part with a performance at Toronto's Garrison club as an opening act for Cadence Weapon at the venue's first live show since the COVID-19 pandemic shutdown of the live music scene.[5]

Beyond the Uncanny Valley was a longlisted nominee for the 2024 Polaris Music Prize.[7]
