About the label
Mars Melons is an internet-based music & art label. The idea for the label was conceived during x-mas 2008, when label-head Morten Dilevski Molthe re-discovered the massive amount of fabulous (and some just rather curious) music and art that had been made by him and his friends (mostly his friends) during the years. Due to the sheer quality of some of the material, it would be a downright shame to let it rot on a hard drive somewhere and not to release it to the world, or more importantly; make all of it available to all our friends. The website has been designed in its entirety by Morten Dilevski Molthe, and is being maintained by the same guy (he is actually writing this too).
About the music releases
All the music releases are free for you to download as mp3’s. The bitrate and sound quality of the mp3’s varies, due to the quality of the initial recordings. Some releases are what you could call “curious”, either due to their sound quality, or due to their rather strange nature (or both), these releases will all get the “curious”-stamp (see image to the left), as a warning that it might not be what you would think of as “serious music” (even though it is, obviously, haha). DO NOT use any of the music or art on this site for commercial purposes without asking permission.
About the art gallery
Displayed in the “art gallery” section of the site are selected works from various visual artists, ranging from paintings, via ceramic works and jewlery to glass art. Most of the artworks in the art gallery are for sale, either as original works or as printed copies. Either contact us on contact [at] marsmelons.com or the artists respectively if you are interested in any of the artworks.
About ‘1UP Props’
‘1UP Props’ is a mini-blog dedicated to spreading the word about artists or initiatives we think deserve praise. Everyone and their grandmother already has a blog, so we thought we’d get one too, and make it short, but good.
