Melody’s Enemy are a British electronic music production duo and DJ act comprising of Andy Haeffele and Morgan Jones. A somewhat unorthodox pairing in modern Techno, the duo have been friends and musical allies since the heady jungle days of the mid-nineties, and are well known in Drum & Bass circles for their past work under the names Crystal Clear and Codebreaker.
They channelled their D&B ethos some new forwarding thinking productions, and their ‘Dead 2nite’ track was picked up by Skream in 2017. They make their return in July with ‘Sleep Is The Enemy’ on Skream’s label Of Unsound Mind. “It was great to see the videos of Oli (Skream) dropping Dead 2Nite across the globe and the reaction it was getting, so we decided pretty quickly that we wanted to put together a second EP for him” adds Andy. Vocals reign throughout every track on this release, all incorporated with modulating acid lines, raw and deep beats, to linear darker synth work. “For this release we experimented with merging two opposing flavours: two tracks of what some would call ‘proper’ techno, cleaner but still rocking all our signature motifs – and then two tracks leaning towards a more left field sound, heavy on the lo-fi crunk and vocals.” You can listen to the full premiere of ‘Sleep Is Enemy’ exclusively on When We Dip.
