If Music is Haram, then why are Quran recitations done in a melody?

This might be a dumb question, but doesn’t the melody make it music?

Voice, and drums are excluded from the rule if i recall correctly.

The first athan (call to prayer) was done by Bilal, a freed slave that was with the prophet and was chosen because of his beautiful voice.
