Formerly of The Narcoleptic Dancers and My Bee’s Garden, Prochet has embraced dream pop with Melody’s Echo Chamber project. The classically-trained Parisian recruited Tame Impala frontman Kevin Parker to produce the self-titled debut album in 2012. The independently-produced album Bon Voyage was released in 2018.
On the debut album, lead single/opener “I Follow You” begins with simple, sun-drenched ’60s melodies and ambling guitars before descending into a psychedelic swirl that recalls Parker’s day job. Consider that spiral a gentle warning to not expect anything straightforward from Melody’s Echo Chamber, especially when things seem to be heading in that direction. On “Endless Shore”, for example, Prochet crafts a densely layered haze complete with ethereal coos signature to the style, yet she does so in a manner that’s less pensive and more authoritative. The rhythm section doesn’t bother with hypnosis, favoring a superliminal approach, a feat developed well into the motorik beats of “Crystallized”. The unabashed prettiness of Prochet’s vocals on “You Won’t Be Missing That Part Of Me” are undercut by sci-fi tinged synth notes that propel the song into the unknown cosmos. “Snowcapped Andes Crash” finds the band swapping their pop leanings for a jazzy feel. The track’s midsection crashes back to earth, only to continue as if the avalanches of the title never happened. Fuzzed guitars take a backseat to Air-like grooves on “Mount Hopeless”, chiming in and out like some kind of warning. This lounge-y vibe is immediately shattered on the glitched-out two minute distortion-fest “Is That What You Said”. It would have been the album’s strangest moment if it weren’t for closer “Be Proud of Your Kids”, during which one cannot help but recall M83′s “Raconte-Moi Une Histoire” thanks to the supporting contribution of an actual French child, curious to know whether "you've already seen a completely naked woman in the street. What colour was her backside?" and other niceties before informing the listener that "the radio is finished, voilà."

You Won't Be Missing That Part of Me
Melody's Echo Chamber Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It caused it's time to change my life
Of course you won't be missing that part of me
It's all you need when telling everyone that you're free
Hold on, you'll see, it won't be that hard to forget me
I hope you won't... I've been told endearing soul
Wish you knew I was too young
Because you cried does it mean you
Can talk to me when you decide
At least you won't be missing that part of me
It's all you need when telling everyone that you're free
Hold on, you'll see, it won't be that hard to forget me
I hope you won't... Will you forgive that I left?
Sure to pretend while you were hate
Erase you, ah, you, erase you, erase you
Erase you, erase you
The song "You Won't Be Missing That Part of Me" by Melody's Echo Chamber appears to be a reflection on a failed relationship. The first line, "Because I lied with all my heart, it caused its time to change my life," suggests that the singer may have been dishonest in the relationship, causing them to reevaluate their life choices. The next line, "Of course you won't be missing that part of me," seems to be acknowledging that the person they were with won't miss the part of them that was deceitful.
The chorus repeats the idea that the person won't miss the singer, and that it won't be difficult to forget them. The line "I've been told endearing soul, wish you knew I was too young" suggests that the singer may have been immature and not yet ready for a serious relationship. The repetition of "erase you" in the final lines of the song may indicate that the singer is trying to move on and forget the relationship entirely.
Overall, the song seems to be a meditation on the end of a relationship and the pain of letting go. The singer is grappling with feelings of regret and hoping to move on, but also acknowledging that the other person may not miss them in the same way.
