Hellscape: Deleting Spotify

󰃭 2025-07-08 | #capitalism

Meljoann's Spotify Genre Playlist Cover. Synergy Myers grins, and Meljoann looks incredulous. Cut out bits from the Spotify API include: genre: an empty array, followers 279, popularity 0.

Everyone on Team Meljoann is now on board with the idea that Spotify is a fuckin’ evil cesspit that can — and should — be boycotted. I’ve submitted takedown requests, and my music should be off it within a week.

Meljoann: King of Music

󰃭 2025-05-26 | #boasting

It’s normal to boast about press coverage on Instagram. Should we normalise boasting on one’s own website? Yes. Yes, we should. Press King. Back when I had an Instagram account, I had mastered the art of the #humblebrag.

Album artwork for 'Status' by Meljoann. An antlered person is made of social media video thumbnails, surrounded by a halo of blue checkmarks.

Single artwork for 'Data Ghost' by Meljoann. Against a pink background and corkboard, some nostalgic images of Meljoann as a kid and teenager: holding instruments & with computers.

‘Data Ghost’ is out today! It’s a song about slipping through the cracks in the algorithm. I made a nostalgic collage-style video for this. We are very chuffed to find has been premiered on The Line of Best Fit. Huge thanks to my manager Dwayne, LOBF music editor Sam & writer Camryn for this brilliant writeup. What really so much to me: they shared my Peertube link, supporting the decision to not upload it to YouTube.

Translate Me

󰃭 2025-02-07 | #releases

Single artwork for 'Translate Me' by Meljoann. Against a lilac background, Meljoann (a dreamboat) stares provocatively at ya.

New single out. Translate Me is about the horror of mis-translation: how capital’s mis-translation of art renders it pointless. What if a mis-perception of you can change you? Streaming and buy links are here Music video is here If you subscribed on mustics.com, you may have already seen the video and got yer download nice and early. The full album is out next week!
