Releasenotes:
There are a few occasions when I have used the terms "melodic IDM" and
"emotional electronica". Many have reacted, asking what I mean by those alluded
genres. But when I listen to Melorman's music, the words creep up again, and so
instead I point you to his latest album, titled Waves. Here, gentle synth lines,
swirling pads, and glitchy rhythms float through the endless skies of
frequencies and wavelengths. Music floats on tiny pockets of air, emotion, and
warmth. These are the sounds perfect for the blue skies, still seas, and sunny
light. It's no wonder that Antonis Haniotakis took his Melorman project to Sun
Sea Sky Productions, an Illinois (US) based independent label, which has already
graced us with the albums by Lights Out Asia, Boy Is Fiction, Northcape and many
others. From my past Interview with Melorman I learned that Haniotakis is
inspired by "the afternoon light running through my curtain in my room" and
"long car rides by the sea when the day is nice". These tiny glimpses into the
artist's motivation are reflected in the calm chords, neutral textures and
downtempo beats throughout the album, just like the tiny droplets of water in
Earth's atmosphere reflect visible sunlight, creating a beautiful rainbow.
