New Haven-based multi-disciplinary musician, Murinaj, also known as Justin Morano has just released their follow up single Fear of Quiet.
The passionate artist has delivered a refined synth-pop track with euphoric elements and polished vocal production. The song opens with the lyrics “And the snow comes down and waits another hour, the empty cup still hopes it turns into rain, with the fear of quiet, I brace for the encounter, and I wish I’d only get you to stay.”
We love the dimensionality of the story telling as Murinaj takes us on a personal and poetic journey. The use of high technology in the track, primarily synthesizers and vocal production, make the experience vibrant, futuristic, yet nostalgic and spontaneous.
Speaking on the track, Murinaj says “Fear of Quiet focuses on the balance between optimism and irrational hope. With influence from the likes of Bon Iver, Phil Collins and Japanese House, Fear of Quiet focuses on the equilibrium these two polarities. .
“The track relies on a pocket characterised nearly three decades ago with heavy synths and melancholy vocals to convey a sense of nostalgia towards the unknown.”
