In terms of production, Melotron focuses on longevity. Since their debut album Mörderwerk, they have worked with successful indie and techno producer Olaf Wollschläger at the Weltherren-Studios/Buir (Kerpen). In 2006, the band decided to explore new avenues in this area and also worked with successful alternative producer Dirk Riegner.
On February 9th, 2007, Melotron competed in the Bundesvision Song Contest for their state of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern with their song "Das Herz."
Melotron has taken part in various significant electronic and industrial festivals, including the Wave Gotik Treffen festival in 1999, 2003, 2004, 2005, and 2012, as well as the M'era Luna Festival in 2001, 2003, and 2005.
The band has released several albums over the years, starting with "Mörderwerk" in 1999 followed by "Fortschritt" in 2000. Two years later, they released "Weltfrieden" in 2002, followed by "Sternenstaub" in 2003. "Cliché" was released in 2005, and "Propaganda" came out two years later in 2007.

Dein Meister
Melotron Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Jeden Tag das gleiche Spiel
Fest verankert in deinem Gehirn
Wie ein Projektil
Macht durch Disziplin, Macht durch die Tat
Jeden Tag das gleiche Spiel
Fest verankert in deinem Gehirn
Kein Glaube, nur Pflicht
Bist du bereit
Wenn dein Meister spricht
Kein Wille, nur Licht
Bist du bereit
Wenn dein Meister spricht
Macht der Hörigkeit, Macht durch den Plan
Jeden Tag ein neues Spiel
Fest verankert in deinem Gehirn
Wie ein Projektil
Macht der Hörigkeit, Macht durch den Plan
Jeden Tag ein neues Spiel
Festgefressen, wie ein Geschwür
Dein Gehorsam führt zum Ziel
Kein Glaube, nur Pflicht
Bist du bereit
Wenn dein Meister spricht
Kein Wille, nur Licht
Bist du bereit
Wenn dein Meister spricht
The lyrics to Melotron's song "Dein Meister" delve into the themes of power and control, and the means by which they are achieved. The repetition of the phrase "Macht durch Disziplin, Macht durch die Tat" (power through discipline, power through action) emphasizes the idea that power is not simply given, but earned through hard work and obedience. The line "fest verankert in deinem Gehirn wie ein Projektil" (firmly anchored in your brain like a bullet) speaks to the idea that these commands and ideals become ingrained in a person's psyche, shaping who they are and how they perceive the world around them.
The verses highlight the sacrifice and duty that is demanded of the person under the control of a powerful "Meister" (master). The lyrics state "kein Glaube, nur Pflicht" (no faith, only duty) and "kein Wille, nur Licht" (no will, only light), suggesting that personal beliefs and desires are subjugated to the demands of the master. The chorus repeats the question "Bist du bereit?" (Are you ready?), emphasizing the idea of obedience and being prepared to follow the commands of the master.
Overall, the song seems to be a commentary on the nature of power and control, and the often oppressive means by which they are achieved. The lyrics point towards the dangers of blindly following a master or ideology, sacrificing one's own beliefs and desires in the process.
