Dax formula for temporal measures

Hi, I need to create 2 measures (to be inserted in a table) based on a data "Sales" that I currently have for each single month of the current year:

measure 1 - sales from 1 January current year to today's date
measure 2 - sales of the current month only

How can I do?
thanks to who helps me.

@Morgana_2022 do you have a date dimension table?
If yes, then:
measure 0 = SUM('Table'[Sales])
measure 1 = CALCULATE([measure 0], DATESYTD('Date'[Date'))
measure 2 = 
VAR _current_month = SELECTEDVALUE('Date'[Month-Year])
RETURN
CALCULATE(
     [measure 0],
     REMOVEFILTERS('Date'),
     'Date'[Month-Year] = _current_month
)
