Melondrama

by Cale Sexton

neßula ur the kale to my spinach <3 Favorite track: KSS.

Michael Mueller Endlessly playable collection of smooth, mellow beats. Sexton has produced an album of restraint, class and deceptively rich detail.

The use of cross-faded elements is excellen, as is coupled long-drawn, almost subsonic yet smooth bass.

These features complement the deftly organic shifts in style and tempo that occur throughout.

This is music that bubbles and glide. It's the musical equivalent of a massage, or a long drive in the passenger seat.

Lay back and relax.

Favorite track: The Sump.

DJ R Het Bangs all the way Favorite track: KSS.

about

Butter Sessions proudly presents the debut LP from label mainstay Cale Sexton. Last seen on the imprint with his club-minded EP East Link in 2016, Melondrama accumulates over 12 months work in the studio.

Having taken a step back from live performance, the album is a marination of Sexton's musicianship, flexing his abilities as a bass-man, and incorporating live instrumentation and drenched arrangements to tell a vivid story. With the new found freedom of playing for himself, his inspired creations span electro-synth, deep milky way ambience and mutant drum machine funk. Produced as a solo act from the bass up, he's only accompanied on Previous Employee, with drums, synth and fx from Maryouss. His zonked imagination is brought to clarity by Corey Kikos' final mix, further animated via Ben Jones' sleeve design.

Full of emotion and adventure, the nine patiently durational earworms on Melondrama are a welcome antidote to the deluge of modern electronica that's designed for speed listening. Find a comfortable seat and let the mind travel.
