MELT

MELT MELT is improvised electronic music. MELT refuses structure. MELT is what happens when you reject everything you’ve been taught about how music should be made. MELT has no grid. No BPM. No key. NO QUANTIZATION!! MELT focus is to destroy your habits as a producer. MELT is not here to be liked. (let go of control.) WHY MELT Music is trapped. Templates, tutorials, "workflow tips", genre tropes, preset packs, scene expectations are a distraction MELT is confrontation. MELT is born from the boredom of predictability. THE LEXICON We don’t call them songs, we call them Drips Melting: the act of making MELT Drip: a finished result of one melting RULES A Drip should be made in one day, max. No distractions Any software can be used. MELT rejects grid, tempo, harmony, and quantization. When a Drip is done: export to audio, then delete the DAW project forever. There is no such a thing as a MELT live set There are no such things as a MELT remixes, edits or reworks You must move on. Your emotional attachment is irrelevant. The process is the point. THE ETHOS MELT is not just the result, it’s the method. MELT is a rejection of music production: The myths of "professionalism". The cult of “finishing tracks” MELT is creative sabotage. MELT rejects productivity obsession.
