Sylvaine releases new song ‘Mono No Aware’

SYLVAINE has released a brand new song!

The new song, titled Mono No Aware, is taken from the Norwegian multi-instrumentalist’s upcoming new album, Nova, which is scheduled to be released in March this year.

Speaking about the new song, SYLVAINE says, “the moment when you appreciate the beauty of our human existence and what lies within it being completely transient, yet feeling overcome by sadness for the exact same reason, that is Mono No Aware. Every SYLVAINE record holds one song title that can’t be directly translated into English, and this time I felt the melancholy and depth of the Japanese saying “mono no aware” fit perfectly with the emotions that went into creating this record. Existing somewhere between nostalgia, a yearning for things lost and past times and a respect for the ephemeral nature of things, Mono No Aware basically deals with how hard it is to accept that the only constant in our existence is change. Being one of the heaviest tracks I wrote to date, Mono No Aware is filled with intensity in every way, pushing the borders of light and dark even further. This song also holds some of my favorite lyrics of the album; ‘You need to fade away, so I can truly see you. Show me the meaning of being alive – Fading, I see you now’.”
