Born in South East London, composer, producer and multi –instrumentalist, Melo-Zed is an inherently multi-disciplinary artist. Drawing from an eclectic collage of influences, his music is a blend of textures both alien and familiar, interwoven with intricately to create vivid soundscapes that can easily be recognised as his own. This expansive approach has led him to work with the likes of 180 Strand, Gucci, BBC, Sundance, BFI and Tate Modern to name a few.

In addition to his work with visual, Melo has collaborated with numerous internationally renowned artists, producing records for the likes Yazmin Lacey, Obongjayar, serpentwithfeet and Rayvn Lenae.

Anchored in roots of Caribbean, West African and Black British identities, Melo-Zed continues to explore ideas of self and community, building a world from an array of colours and sounds.
