Rising Dutch producer Afroham releases ‘Could Be Elsewhere’, his second single for Melting Pot Music, following ‘About You’ featuring Ginge and Cocabona. The 26-year-old musician from Rotterdam is fusing neo-soul, lofi and hip-hop in his very own style and fashion. ‘Could Be Elsewhere’ features Brooklyn-based multi-instrumentalist Birocratic. The two producers first met in New York City, a week before the pandemic really hit Europe and the US.

Born Nathan Avraham, Afroham's artist name is a playful take on his surname and his hairdo. His superpowers also include creating visual art via video and 3d animation (de-spite being colourblind). Afroham has directed and animated a full-length movie that will accompany the release of his project and its singles. The artwork comes from Parisian artist MC Blue Matter.

Afroham has released a sling of successful singles on labels like Steezyasfuck and Chillhop (where he also works during daytime). His current playlist has music from artists like H.E.R., SiR, J. Dilla, Men I Trust & Mndsgn.

NÃO AO MARCO TEMPORAL!

Celebrating the news that the majority of Brazil's Supreme Court judges voted NO on Marco Temporal! 

Hallelujah!

 ... But, there's still more work to do.  

Members of Brazil's congress have now declared they will work to change Brazil's constitution to justify the heinous principle of "Marco Temporal".

We hope you enjoy and are encouraged by the song.
  And we really hope you will

 ADD YOUR VOICE TO THE CALL
           FOR ALL INVOLVED TO VOTE   "NO TO MARCO TEMPORAL!" 

+ Download the song, play it back from another device, and film yourself singing along.  Post a video of yourself on social media with the # marcotemporalnão.

Here are the lyrics:

DIGA NÃO À VIOLAÇÃO
O QUE É DELA DEIXE-AO CHÃO
DO JEITO QUE ELA JÁ MERECEU
AO TRIBUNAL FEDERAL
NÃO AO MARCO TEMPORAL
NÃO AO MARCO TEMPORAL
NÃO AO MARCO TEMPORAL


For now there's been a "No" vote on this latest heinous attack on Indigenous Rights, and all humanity's planetary survival.
But factions within Brazil's government still are pushing to force "Marco Temporal" through. 

As a person who has deep gratitude and admiration for the land and people of Brazil, and who has benefited deeply from the inspiration and education of the music born from that land, I couldn't sit and watch this vote come-up without adding my voice to the chorus of communities tirelessly advocating to stop this (continued) violation of the land, and Indigenous people & territories of Brazil.

 One late night in Rio De Janeiro, a group of passionate musicians gathered in the studio to pool our talents and energies, and encourage all parties involved to say "NO" to Marco Temporal. 

We created this song with the hope its energy and message would contribute to the advocacy efforts pressuring the Brazilian courts and congress to reject Marco Temporal. 

 We acknowledge we are not on the deadly front lines of this battle. We stand in solidarity, and send prayers for protection and success to all those who are.
 
We hope and pray that this music -and your participation in it!- sends support, added visibility and energy to efforts of Indigenous communities throughout Brazil, and to the sacred and endangered being which is the Amazons herself.

Rising Alt R&B singer KeepVibesNear aka KVN drops first solo single in 2023, ‘Another Casualty’. Produced by Nikhil Beats and releasing via Melting Pot Music.

Blessed with an unmistakable voice, and a natural talent for creating dark & emotive leftfield R&B, Romford-born, London-based artist KeepVibesNear has cut a singular shape in the capital’s musical underbelly. Playing an integral role in the much-heralded Silhouettes Project, as well as racking up collaborations with FloFilz, Ray Lozano, BERWYN & Coops - his dulcet tones have seen him gain support from the likes of BBC Radio 1Xtra, Rinse FM, Worldwide FM, Trench, Notion and New Wave Mag. 

Returning with a matured, yet characteristically melancholic sound, his new single ‘Another Casualty’ tells a tale of lament and redemption, as a wintery guitar motif is joined by crisp drums and winsome saxophones. Shifting shadows and pitched down vocals add to the eerie atmosphere, whilst KVN’s vocals weave effortlessly throughout the track. 

On the track, KVN explains: “'Another Casualty' is a song about misused time. In relationships we have good times and bad. This song is about how we come back from the bad for someone we deeply care about. That reflection you look for inside to try and be better when it’s necessary. I see this song as a conversation with the feeling that comes from a certain type of solitude we only really feel in and out of love. This feeling really inspired me with the image of being lost at shore, another casualty of the sea and the drama of it all.”

Straight to the heart DEMOTAPE(1)

Lyrics written by me vocals and instrumentals produced with ai. This ones a little political 

Shouldn't You be Happy Too?

Echoes Into Air is a journey through sound and spirit — a hip hop soul & deep house fusion that dissolves guilt, rewrites narratives, and celebrates love without weight. Conscious rap verses flow like poetry over hypnotic rhythms, carrying the energy of soulful choruses soaring with the warmth.

The project is about release — letting go of shame, embracing self-awareness, and finding freedom in vulnerability. With live-feel instrumentation, deep grooves, and glowing hooks, Echoes Into Air captures both the intimacy of reflection and the electricity of the dance floor.

This is not just music — it’s a declaration: every burden fades, every story can be rewritten, and love remains when the echoes disappear into air

Echoes into air

Melting Pot Music is a record label from Cologne, Germany. We like beats, rap, jazz, & soul music.
