Melody’s Echo Chamber announces new album with first single "Looking Backward"
Melody's Echo Chamber is back with news of her third album Emotional Eternal, and has unveiled "Looking Backward" as the first outing.
"Looking Backward" is Melody's Echo Chamber's first release of the year, following her appearance on Moodoïd's "Only One Man" track last year, and is teamed with a Hyoyon Paik-directed video.
Melody's Echo Chamber, real name Mélody Prochet, says of the single, ""Looking Backward" is a vivid, nonchalant, poetic march to the Unknown. I wrote the lyrics on my way to Stockholm, in transit at the airport, there was a man creating light reflections with his watch and playing with light on the floors and walls. It felt like an act coming from a source of pure creativity, it made me happy to catch it and inspired me to write the song."
The new single is also accompanied by news of Melody's Echo Chamber's third album Emotional Eternal, which will follow 2018's Bon Voyage.
Melody's Echo Chamber's new album was recorded in the outskirts of Stockholm with Dungen's Reine Fiske and Fredrik Swahn.
"I hope the record has that uplifting quality," Prochet says. "I wanted to be more grounded and mindful through the process. I guided the sessions with simplicity - a contrast with the maximalism of Bon Voyage and the wilderness of my delusions. I made some big and impactful decisions and changes to my life. It took me to where it is peaceful, and I think the record reflects this. It’s more direct."
