Hear the title track from Melrose Zee's new 'Palisades' EP

Melrose Zee is a producer with a sound that mixes the old with the new; on his new Palisades EP he takes the bright, pixelated sounds of artists like Rustie and Lone and then filters them back through a more classic hip-hop formula.  While those artists often seemed to be soundtracking some spastic, off-the-wall sugar rush, Melrose Zee keeps things simple, making the Palisades EP equally lethal as an instrumental release or a hypothetical rapper's beat tape.

The EP's title track is a prime example, it's twinkling melodies and Cashmere Cat-esque strut just begging for an emcee to lay some bars on top.  Check out the whole EP over at Melrose Zee's Soundcloud, and keep an eye out for a rumored collaboration with Sir Michael Rocks.

I received my degree in English from Virginia Commonwealth University in Richmond, and Virginia is still home. Apart from my yearly pilgrimage to Moogfest and occasional shows in DC, Detroit, and New York, I like to stick to the fringes, with an eye always open toward music that is forward-thinking and unique, whatever the genre.
