However, after creating her song "Dollhouse" in September 2013, she decided non to release the aforementioned extended play. She began conceptualizing her debut album, which differed from the sound of the 2013 EP. In May 2014, Melanie put out her Dollhouse EP, and announced that summer that she hoped to have her album out around October. When October came, Melanie released the video for "Carousel" and postponed her release date for her anthology, and stated that she hoped to have information technology out in leap.
