TMT 103: Melanie Charles
Episode description
Once upon a time vocalist Melanie Charles (a.k.a. D'Flower) had a sartorial period where she'd deftly mix contrasting patterns. Her mother likened her daughter's music to this phase; she couldn't be more apt. Melanie's musical style is a brew of her jazz training, soul influences and operatic dreams and perhaps, a splash of just about everything else, including her Haitian heritage. Last year's Rat Habitat EP (Guns That Shoot Bubbles with Jordan Peters) is the proof, but only a sliver of her electric talent. Melanie plays the flute, self-orchestrates with a SP202 classic sampler and the piano was her first instrument at age five. For this born-and-bred Brooklyn musician, her forthcoming solo album will truly reflect all the facets of her artistry. This episode features two Rat Habitat songs plus a TMT-exclusive live performance of Melanie's unreleased "Without Us" from her TBA solo project.
