Mel Blue fuse nostalgia and modernity; crafting dance music imbued with a combination
of reflection and forward-thinking creativity. Splitting their lives between Sydney and
London, Oscar Sharah, Jacob Siles, and Luke Gerber have built a solid reputation for
their euphoric hybrid dance music. At its core their sound is melancholy and introspective
yet delicately balanced with wistful textures and filtered through a rose-tinted lens. Their upcoming album nomorejacketsplease is infused with underground bass influences (jungle, dubstep, DnB, UKG, and breakbeat), and captures both the excitement and uncertainty of starting anew in a foreign city. It’s a bold stylistic shift from 2023’s Sanctuary Point and is ultimately a story of redemption, friendship, and growth, narrated through fast tempos, atmospheric synths, and danceable yet contemplative soundscapes.
Soon, Mel Blue are coming home to Sydney to play their upcoming album nomorejacketsplease live at Oxford Art Factory August 22. Tickets on sale now!
