Indonesian-American experimental pop artist Melati Malay a.k.a. Melati ESP unveiled their new single "ENERGI" today.
Malay said this about the new song, which can be heard below:
"I recorded ENERGI with a specific 'uncanny valley' feeling in mind. It’s the last song on the record, so I wanted the mood and storytelling over the previous 45 minutes to culminate together in a kind of nature and tech 'metamorphosis.' The last two lines of the record are 'Becoming a strange machine. Time to reach an agreement.' So the question remains, where do we go from here?"
"ENERGI" stems from Melati ESP’s forthcoming debut album hipernatural, which will be released on April 28 via Carpark Records. Pre-orders for the album can be made here. The 12-track release was co-produced with long-time collaborator Kaazi (100% Silk, Asa Tone).
