Meljoann

Meljoann, an avant-garde hyperpop producer from Ireland, returned with her highly anticipated third studio album 'Status', which dropped on March 14th, 2025. Known for her genre-bending fusion of soulful vocals, industrial noise, and lush synths, Meljoann has crafted a distinctive hyperjack sound that pushes sonic boundaries. Her live performances are a sensory overload, combining hard-hitting beats with dystopian video projections to explore themes of social media addiction and digital decay.

Status introduces an ambitious new live show, weaving a chilling narrative around social media’s grip on our lives. The show promises an immersive experience with theatrical visuals, disorienting soundscapes, and provocative stage design—providing the perfect soundtrack for your digital detox.

Meljoann's work has been praised internationally, with support from Pitchfork, KEXP, and Beats Per Minute in the US. In the UK, she has been championed by BBC 6 Music’s Deb Grant, Radcliffe and Maconie, and BBC Radio Ulsters Gemma Bradley, as well as receiving airplay on BBC Introducing and BBC 6Music's Breakfast Show. A member of the Spirit of Gravity experimental collective in Brighton, she continues to innovate, using platforms like Mustics®—her satirical social media performance art piece—to explore apolitical manifestation culture.

Having played renowned festivals like Open Ear and Knockanstockan, and supported artists such as Ghostpoet and Mu-Ziq, Meljoann has established herself as a leading force in electronic music. Her work has been recognized by the Irish Times, RTÉ radio, and Nialler9, and she has been commissioned for remixes by NYC hyperpop artist Madge and Irish artist Winter Aid.

Meljoann’s Status tour kicks off in February 2025, with dates in London, Brighton, Dublin, and more TBC. Prepare for a transformative audio-visual journey unlike any other.

This is weird, and I like it …”

"Using avant-pop as a tool for change, projects like this are a reminder that technology can be fun, and sometimes still is, but we are reaching a dangerous threshold with it too. The endless selling of data, nonstop marketing campaigns, and sole ownership of the web by big tech is turning a once limitless haven into a brain-rotting hellscape. Luckily, the world is looking for ways to restore peace"
