Revive Music Audio: Melanie Charles- "Gemini"

Lenny Kravitz, Grace Jones, Lauryn Hill, Lion Babe, Thundercat, SZA & More Rock The Afropunk Festival 2015 in Brooklyn, NY.

BK native Melanie Charles dropped the visual treatment for her spacey electric single "Gemini". The enchanting songstress shows off her sound melodic sensibilities over a track that sports some drum programming and synthy sub-bass work that sounds more like Dilla's late electronic efforts or Stevie Wonder's 70's smashes (somewhere between "You've Got It Bad Girl" and Onra's "My Mind Is Gone") The singer/songwriter throws her Haitian roots on the table with some Creole hooks over the Jordan Peters produced track and was sent our way via RevivalistThe video follows the young Brooklynite on a trip through the city as she self-fulfills the prophecy of the song, looking for her astrological better half. Its a promising start for this powerful and controlled jazz-schooled singer, and we can't wait to get some more. Watch Melanie Charles' "Gemini" visual below.
