Mel Denisse – aiming alone

Nashville’s Mel Denisse returns today with a new single called ‘aiming alone’, and it deserves your immediate attention!

Produced by Micah Tawlks (who has also worked with the likes of Paramore and ASHE), this track is instantly arresting. Its dark and mysterious sound blends alternative pop with shoegaze and trip hop. Speaking on the song’s theme, Mel says:

“‘aiming alone’ details wanting to be understood with urgency, while still feeling sealed off behind glass. On the other side, the world watches and speculates, close enough to see you, never close enough to meet you. That distance becomes the point: the two realities can’t be reconciled. The outro carries that into finality – an acceptance of the lone road, and the resolve of aiming alone.”

The track is taken from Mel’s forthcoming debut EP, which is out soon. In the meantime, check out more of this rising artist’s catalogue on Spotify.

New Music: Mel Denisse

One of the most exciting discoveries of the week has been Nashville’s Mel Denisse, whose extraordinary work really caught our attention.

This artist is creating some of the most original shoegaze and indie-rock productions to come out of the US right now, and her new single ‘going nowhere’ shows that. The track invites listeners into a soundscape that feels pensive and melancholic but also gritty and raw.

“Inspired by the fantasy book, The Serpent & the Wings of Night. With themes of survival via invisibility, split loyalties, recurring grief, and forward motion without belonging.”

Mel’s work has already picked up praise from outlets like BBC Radio 1, EARMILK and LADYGUNN. We’re obsessed, and we honestly can’t wait to hear more from this hugely promising talent.
