🏷️ About: Melo is an audio-based social media app created to connect underground artists with listeners in a guaranteed fashion—think of it as a combination of TikTok and SoundCloud, where musicians post 30-second snippets to a TikTok-like feed, and listeners receive bite-sized chunks of really cool music from artists they've never heard of. If they like the snippet of a released song, they can stream it directly on any streaming plat.

I downloaded Melo to find new music and promote my own. Ive had Melo for two weeks and i have had a video up since the day I downloaded it and i haven’t received a single comment like or even one view. Also when searching for music they would not show the genres i had selected and instead inly showed other ones
I saw it on TikTok and was like aw that’s Wasup. I downloaded it and went to upload a song. It’s hard to choose a snippet of the song you want to post, It bugs and freezes. after finally getting it how I wanted, I posted it, i got a notification saying upload was successful and then a few seconds later it says upload failed. I’ve tried multiple different ways to get it to work but it fails. Melo crashes too. Great concept and gots potential it just isn’t there yet. Hopefully they can fix the bugs. when they do I’m sure it’ll be a five star app. Until then this beta app isn’t any good.
I been trying to get on Melo but it’s still on loading screen
Nothing loads anymore, unfortunate because when it worked it was a good way to share music
Love the idea and concept! It’s a really cool way to find new artists you might enjoy, and it isn’t as much sensory overload as TikTok/IG/etc. That being said, it needs some work from a programming and marketing perspective.
To say Melo is buggy is an understatement. Uploading media to Melo is kind of a nightmare, and notifications register about 20% of the time. Speaking of uploading media, an app that caters to enthusiasts of underground music, but has no option to upload WAV files makes zero sense to me. Connecting to servers takes way longer than it should as well. Needs some fine-tuning.
If you are a bedroom pop/rap/hiphop artist, you’ll find your audience on Melo. If you literally do any other genre of music, there is no market for it. Much of what I find on Melo sounds very similar to each other, and there isn’t so much an audience as there is a bunch of other musicians liking each other’s content. There is no way to reliably track metrics (I.e. who has actually seen what you post, how long they listened to the track), which can be hard to determine if your tracks are getting shown to anyone at all.
Love the idea and would happily endorse if Melo worked better.
It’s a great app.. won’t let me upload a profile pic though.. lol
Conceptually really great for underground artists and it’s been nice to show my past releases to new people while discovering new music as well! App needs some fixes though:
- super long loading time for screens and overall some glitches here and there
- can’t reply to comments on a post
- need to link other social media like Tiktok and Twitter
- sound bite auto reset, once the 30 seconds are up it should reset for me to play the bite again instead of me having to drag the slider
- Spotify button and account integration so I can jump to Spotify to play a new song I found, only goes to Apple Music and at the moment I gotta write stuff down
- dark mode
With the right updates Melo will be the perfect hub for underground artists!!
Melo is extremely clever and is probably the best thing for an underground/up and coming artist to use if they are looking for exposure. The creator is taking songs straight from Melo and pretty much giving them free promo by posting it on his tiktok! You seriously can’t find this anywhere else. If you’re looking for a push to get your music out there, this is a must have app!!!
firstly, i am stoked to begin my journey on this app & what it could lead to with my music career!
super unique & innovative. i’m excited to see where this app goes in the near future!
my only “complaint” would be tiny glitches here & there. my profile would be fully loaded, but the whole page is blank. i’ve only had one instance of it crashing on me.
perhaps an issue on my side?
perhaps little bugs that can be tweaked as time goes on?
regardless, i’ve already found great artists music! Melo gets me excited to connect with underground artist like myself!
looking forward to the future for Melo.
Fun discovering people that you would never be able to find otherwise, also fun to put out your own stuff that people will see even just for fun, I think there is still some small issues but I have faith that this will be very great in the future. 10/10
Great app, just needs continuous improvement and added features until it is pretty much as functionable as SoundCloud respectively , better searching and stations etc , just anything to make it more social and bandcamp soundcloud oriented
I think the approach that this team is taking to helping enhance the music industry is amazing, and if their track continues, will deliver HUGE value to everyone. Keep at it guys!! Looking forward to seeing what this platform becomes :)
I can finally start listening to newer and better music
this app is amazing. Will definitely be the most used app by small artists and music enthusiasts very soon.
I really like the concept of Melo and think it will go far. It’s a great way to expose yourself to music. Great formatting and easy to use!

Love the design, love the idea, so easy to use and such a good resource for finding amazing new music!!
Melo looks great. I especially like it because it’s still smaller so it’ll be easier to grow on it than other larger overcrowded apps. I only have one thing I would reccomend: giving users the ability to upload other music files besides mp3. Honestly, the majority of songs are in mp4 format. That’s my only suggestion! I’m very excited to see where Melo goes :)
this is a great app to get your music out there as well as discover other underground artists. it’s not just an app for artists but an app for music lovers.
As an underground artist, it’s hard to get your music seen or heard by people. As long as Melo is executed the right way I think by the end of the year this can be a great way for normal music listeners to find great music and artists they never would’ve found before the existence of Melo, I also think it can be a great way for anyone in the music industry to make new connections. I’m very very excited for the future of Melo
