After dropping out of studying drama and visual art, Mel Uye-Parker started picking up multi-track recorders, recording vocals in studios, writing songs for other artists and eventually studying recording and composition. Now, she’s an artist with over two decades under her belt and programme leader of ICMP’s Creative Music Production MA.

Inside this episode Isobel gets to hear about all of this as well as how Mel’s identity as a black, gay woman has shaped her experience of the wider white-hetero dominant culture of music production. Mel also shared about the music she’s making today, including a new release under her artist project, OMOTE.
