Melanie Ribbe is an exciting young talent from Germany that has been dazzling dance floors across the world with her music on labels such as Moon Harbour, Saved Records and Little Helpers. She is well known in places like Ibiza and has played B2B DJ sets with Paco Osuna at places like Hï Ibiza, their mutual love and respect for each other's music has led to them collaborating on this stunning three-track EP.

"The Key" opens the release with its pulsating acid bassline, infectious hip hop inspired vocals and fast-paced percussion that gives the track an upbeat energy.
