hey all. uh.. been a while.

sorry for not being more active, i uh... i just got burned out on being active on social media & it's something i'm trying to combat right now. let's face it, really, whatever's been happening with twitter has burned a ton of people & i don't blame anyone for jumping ship entirely. just sucks to be in this situation, i guess...

doesn't help that i've changed jobs since and the new job is simultaneously better but also way more demanding of my time, i just don't use much of my time for like, browsing twitter anymore? it's different, i suppose, healthier for sure but oddly lonelier all the same. i'm fine, before you ask, i've got a lot of lovely people IRL that i'm glad to know.

well, that aside, while i haven't been active socially, i have been cooking - had a new single come out on streaming platforms, it's called perpetual motion & you should check it out, it celebrates my 10th year as a musican artist. Perpetual Motion i'll upload it here at some point (sooner rather than later, i'm hoping)

i've hosted a compilation called Power! GS, in which we used retro DTM MIDI devices like the SC-55 or the SC-88 PRO to create really cool music and many musicians tuned in to create some really impressive pieces. you can listen to it & download it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wO3KEwceJTs

i've also created & covered songs for some games while i was gone - namely, Mega Man Y+1: Operation X.M.A.S. and Supermarket Spree DX, both made with love, by lovely people you should follow as well!

...and in general just making tracks & even pixel art and other design art, i'll upload some of these things here eventually™.

i think that's all i have for now! really i'm just hoping to post here a bit more often cause this community was always lovely and full of supportive peeps y'all it's just been a bit much and i definitely feel like i've bit more than i could chew in a sense, but i'm working on it.

thanks for sticking around!

just wanna thank everyone once more for y'alls support. i'm super grateful for it and i feel super fortunate to have it, honestly.

there's some obligatory "new year's resolution" stuff that i just want to put out there. not necessarily for anyone but for myself to keep a note on.

resolution 1: 4480x1080

resolution 2: i would honestly just like to focus on music more this year. last year, i felt i had to distance myself after such a long and busy 2021 with projects and whatnot, and also because i genuinely needed a more consistent stream of income, what with the UK Cost of living crisis and whatnot, but i feel i regressed in some fashion. not that i can put it at the forefront of my priorities still, but i'd just like to rekindle my passion for music this year, is all.

i hope everyone's having a good time this season!!!:)

honestly just wanted to thank everyone on here for being unexpectedly but also very supportive of whatever little music (and no art) that I've posted here, it means the world to me to see people enjoy it more than anything

i hope i can add some more to this place becuase it's really a cool hub of creative people altogether !!

that's all, really. i just wanted to express my gratitude 🥺🥺🥺🙏🙏

gonna try to use this more!!! so follow me ill probably be dripfeeding a lot of audio ive done in the past

Hi everyone! I'm MelonadeM, but you can call me Mel!

I mostly work with music stuff, to the point of being quite into the deep end of it. I love listening to all sorts of music and I love making it especially.

However I also quite like working within the drawing realm, particularly when it comes to pixel art. I'm not as experienced in it as I am with music of course, but I also didn't start too long ago so yeah.

Hopefully we'll have a fun time!
