Follow-up album to cult-classic debut, Mantra Moderne. 'Melodi' is the second album from captivating duo Kit Sebastian (aka Kit Martin and Merve Erdem). Those familiar with the band's cult classic 2019 debut record 'Mantra Moderne' will instantly recognise their unique sound that blurs boundaries of world music, jazz and psychedelia. Not to be content replicating the same album, sonically the feel of 'Melodi' is a maturation. It is more diverse and provides glimpses into many different worlds from the Italian Riviera to the mountains of the Caucasus, the beaches of Bahia to the city streets of Istanbul and Paris. This joyous merging of soundscapes evokes a borderless planet with music as an international language, belonging everywhere and nowhere. 'Melodi' is imbued with Kit Sebastian's love of vintage records and world cinema, but it is not a retro homage. It celebrates its influences but is very much a modern record, being simultaneously brand new and retro. The music was written during the first UK lockdown and recorded that summer, allowing the band to experiment in the studio. The album's range of instrumentation has expanded from the previous record to introduce additional textures and depths, capturing moments of pure pop and contemplation. This journey is rich in musical vitamins and nourishment.
