PARODIA 005EP
|
Welcome to the Triangle d'Or by Nathan Melja. The first opus of a series to come out on his label Parodia, this record is an ode to those Parisian nights where the prestige and extravagance are prior. Showing a strong willing to integrate elements from the mainstream world in his creative process, the EP opens with the contemplative and emotive "Stargazing." You're walking down Champs Elysées, looking at the sky. In a fraction of a second, everything starts to move in slow motion. You're passing out, your eyes stuck on moving stars. It was all a dream, they say. As you wake up, you're sitting next to a glossy club. "UnDcided" is blasting out of that neon door. You get lost in its colorful and trippy intro before your head starts to feel the vibrations of its wobbly baseline. You need a cocktail to get your night started. You enter the restaurant next door. "Welcome!" is playing in the background. That's Patrick Holland on the guitars you just tried to Shazam! Like the missing piece is not missing anymore. One too many drinks -- you got lost in the groove of the night. It's time to go home. As you leave the club, the sounds of "Bblluurrryy" are floating in the air, every noise you hear melts into the music. Everything looks hazy. Nothing feels the same anymore.

PARODIA 003LP
|
French producer and DJ Nathan Melja returns with his debut album With Dan!, out via his own imprint Parodia, the follow-up to a series of breakthrough releases on cult labels Mister Saturday Night, Technicolour, Antinote, Kalahari Oyster Cult and more. Produced and recorded over the past two years hand-in-hand with his father Dan, a seasoned guitarist and sound engineer, this album is his most personal project to date and holds a true feeling of spontaneity, juggling between genres and driven by Nathan's characteristic unrestrained creative approach. Over the course of its ten tracks, Nathan gently steps away from his previous dance offerings in favor of exploring new paces and rhythms, while consistently delivering a refreshed take on his trademark hybrid sound palette and textures. On With Dan!, he embarks an array of local and international friends on vocals, which bring yet another dimension to his rich, at times lush, at others challenging music. Also featuring Jon Beige, Edward Reilly, and AnNie .Adaa.
