INSIDE LOOK INTO "DIGITAL DREAMS"
"Digital Dreams’ is her first single since the release of her Retro-Pop EP Dancing Without You. Melotika sings about our obsessions with the online world making light out of a dark situation since the global pandemic and partaking in the new virtual world.“I wrote this song at the beginning of fall 2020. We were going to add this track as a b-side to my EP Dancing Without You but later decided that this is a stand alone song. It's just so different and needs to be its own thing.” Melotika shares. “With the producer of the track, Twocann, were-visited the piece a year later and made changes. I literally got the chills after hearing the Mixdone by Canadian producer Taabu, and realised that this is the kind of energy the world needs.”
“Press the send button now, no one wants to be alone. Display goes on and on, we’ll never shut it off,’ is a cool relevant line,” she adds. “We are so obsessed with being social through our phones and the need to be loved and connected is greater than ever. We all want validation and we all want to be somebody we ‘want to be seen as’.You can literally be anyone you want online.”The Montreal born artist fuses reminiscent retro sounds that create a new era of retro with a new school take on Pop. ‘Digital Dreams’ combines the 70’s, 80’s dance aesthetic with some early2000’s influences such as Madonna’s Confessions on a Dance Floor and Kylie Minogue’s Fever.“The idea was to create a short and sweet catchy dance-pop track relevant to our world.Something that sounds familiar but not really at the same time. I wanted the lyrics to resonate and make you move going back to the basics a little. We are in a new era now and this generation needs to dance.”
“The making of the music video was spontaneous.” Melotika shares. “With my animation artist Toastermind, we wanted to combine both Melotika’s real world and fictional world.The Olympic stadium in Montreal has so much history and was very futuristic the time the building was made. I couldn’t think of any other spot that looked like it was about to take off to outer space and tell my story!There is just something so compelling about combining the old with the new...”
