MeLo-X – Light + Space [Video]

MeLo-X takes us into his mind as a producer on his track Light + Space. Featured on his latest EP “GOD: LoFi“, Light + Space incorporates sparse, and ghost like vocals inspired by Laurel Halo’s original by the same name. The vocals lightly shift over a beat that elevates and transitions at very step, moving from a digital lofi sound-scape into a climax of synth sweeps and unique drum patterns. The video shot in Lac-Brome, and Knowlton, Québec, Canada is a different landscape than the city streets of East Flatbush, Brooklyn NY we associate with MeLo-X. The piece shows a woman detaching from the mundane to explore nature and the outdoors. Previously: MeLo-X – Girls Love Rihanna [Audio x Download]
