Melody’s Echo Chamber has released the vibrant new single “Eyes Closed,” a highlight from her fourth studio album ‘Unclouded’ available now via Domino. This track serves as a bold exploration of psych-soul and krautrock, featuring propulsive breakbeats from British drummer Malcolm Catto. The production reflects a sculptural and avant-garde approach, moving away from previous realism into a brighter, more playful sonic territory. By utilizing intricate rhythms and layered textures, the song captures a feeling of deep devotion and the appreciation of transient beauty. This recording is a stunning achievement in modern psychedelic pop that rewards listeners with every nuanced detail.
The collaborative depth of ‘Unclouded’ is significant, featuring co-production and writing from Swedish musician Sven Wunder. The album also includes contributions from strings expert Josefin Runsteen and the rhythmic foundation of Daniel Ögen and Love Orsan. Additionally, Leon Michels and Reine Fiske add their distinct musical signatures to the record, creating a rich tapestry of sound that spans from delicate pop to dense instrumental grooves. These sessions resulted in twelve tracks that celebrate the present moment through a lens of resilience and harmony. Every performance on the album highlights the synergy between Prochet and her world-class studio ensemble.
Prochet is currently preparing for an extensive international tour across Europe and North America to support the new release. The upcoming dates include stops at major venues such as the Electric Ballroom in London, Webster Hall in New York, and the Belasco in Los Angeles. These live shows provide a physical space for the album’s intricate arrangements to expand into immersive audience experiences. The tour reflects the same positive energy that fueled her previous global run, emphasizing a newfound love for the living experience. Witnessing these compositions live confirms her status as a singular voice in contemporary music.
