Naarm Bass Fiend // SUB:SOLAR 

MELTA’s distinctly bold & gritty selections have quickly earned her a respected place in Naarm’s drum & bass community. A true bass fiend to her core, when she’s not dishing out girthy rollers you’ll find her front row on the dancefloor. 

She’s supported international heavyweights Jappa, Napes, T>I, Pola & Bryson and Annix as well as playing Touch Bass, Esoteric & Sub Terra Festivals in Naarm.

Her style ranges from minimal & liquid to chunky jump up and rollers, with a particular fondness for high energy and dark drum & bass, as well as garage/140. Her unique selections are guaranteed to keep the floor shaking and your body moving.


A vocal advocate for the broader community, she’s buried in bass both in front and behind the scenes, curating immersive local and international events with her own brand SUB:SOLAR and coordinating events with the Twisted Audio team.
