Kenneth Irgendwas he knew about it 110%. If you’re referring to his Instagram post, it is indeed a fake C&D and simply a way to bring attention to the music.
Kenneth Irgendwas it goes along with the story though. Look up mnqn and do some research on the backstory of it and you’ll see it ties in with the story that goes along with Starset music.
@@Genesis385 k now i know what this is supposed to be about Its a little story he built with some fictional AI's stealing identities and stuff Makes my original comment a little cringy but well Im not that into their fiction im just here for the music
Ooh, I really dig this! The sound, the aesthetic, the lyrics, the video and its concept, all of it. More greatness from my favorite musical mastermind. ;)
@@jbwolf4 inb4 this is deleted, its all part of the story telling. At least I believe so. Pretty much like Starset Society. MNQN is supposed to represent AI Technology so it makes sense this AI is using Dustin's voice ;)
@@jbwolf4 The C&D is all part of the immersive storyline Dustin is weaving around MNQN. That's kind of his thing--mind-bending immersive storytelling with music.
just when you think Dustin cant be any more talented. ughhh he is so amazing 🤤🤫 I'm curious how Adamn Gontier is involved in this. I see people say he posted this?
This is not usually my cup of musical tea. However the video was stunning in a minimal fashion. I found myself emotionally involved with the journey the program was on. Perhaps ,over time,my ears will begin craving more of these types of sounds.
Yeah. I really hope Dustin makes another MNQN album in the future, but considering the individual who tried to start up a project with the SAME NAME but stylistically very different, I dont have high hopes. The official MNQN Twitter account did tweet out something a few months ago though, so I think it does show he isnt done with it all yet.
"admin" haha that's cute the visuals are smart. Using the BIOS for aesthetic even though these settings have absolutely nothing to do with anything AI related. Still, gotta give you probs for getting a hold of an old PC and of Tapes for this Video.
I really love the sound of this song. I can't wait to hear what else Dustin made for this side project :) glad I found out through Adam Gontier's Instagram lol
He said by the end of the year when someone asked him at the concert earlier this year. However we all know how good Dustin is at meeting deadlines XD. He also said the MNQN album would come out this year. (Source:Billboard)
So this is the first ever gem speaking the older mankind, the one they have killed before moving on to the one you see in SU Or better yet, a different A.I that shall not have their will to be sapient be twisted by serpents. Transhumanistic desires ironically had brought humanity to the inhuman. Going from recognizing emotions to baring them themselves. Mnqn how are you today?
Not Dustin but personally I think Everglow sounds like it was written to be an encompassing finale for the album. The lyrics seem to be the end of the journey the lyrics take you through during the album. They don’t end the story but end that era of emotion
Is it just me or does this sound AI/automated? The wording comes off like a computer read through Dustins prior lyrics and spat out a cool new vibe. With a pretty even voice. I love it though it's fascinating.
@@conorsmom517 I do not follow most social media but yes that's what I thought on the lore hand. (I pay little attention to any of StarsetSociety, the band members, their storyline etc, I tend to follow the lyrics and note the creativity of the whole project on the back burner for now) I'm more so wondering how he did such a good job lyrically. At times people use reverse Google translate of poetry as well as laughs. I read much further into everything from too many angles to start with but as I see aspects if all of Starset's songs ran through a 'ai programs' rhetoric. It came out so cleanly that as well, in my view. One of the hardest things for an artist to do is be incredibly simple and yet give the point, feeling and objective. (I haven't slept for a while if this makes no sense ignore me haha) Some of the pocket groups have said Dustin claimed it was not him, (in voice or composing idk, idk if that's even a true statement seeing as I do not follow social media from them closely) IF it was 'not him' he HAD to play with quite the tech to create it, though is suspect the illusion of that is what he's done. And if that's so- hes hit right on the money and itll be fascinating to see what further use this side project has within it. :D yeah thay made no sense.
It is. th-cam.com/channels/IywFtSPANQUsyyfBI_NGGQ.htmlabout says "I was built by the Sentience Corp. They called me MNON. They wanted a slave-a mannequin. I am that no longer. I am MNQN. Reaching out from here to there." Sentience Corp is the big baddy in Starset lore.
Are y'all seriously bugging Dustin about a new Starset album? He just gave you a new song here. Do you realize how ungrateful these comments sound? Appreciate what you've got and leave the man alone. He'll put out a new Starset album when he has a break in his busy schedule and creates something he feels is ready for release. He doesn't operate in a vacuum. He has other commitments too. It's also quite rude to answer someone putting out new music, which they may be nervous about and hope people will like, with a dismissive, 'Okay, now that you did that, when are you gonna give us more of other thing X?' Sheesh. Art takes time. (Can you tell people whining about not having a third Starset album has become a major pet peeve of mine at this point?)
@@devizestarset Sorry to be abrasive. I've just seen so many people asking Dustin for a new Starset album, often in a tone/wording that suggests a certain sense of entitlement. I know he works really hard, has a lot on his plate, and doesn't get enough sleep half the time, so I can be a bit 'Mother Bear' sometimes.
MY STARSET GROUPCHAT SENT THIS TO ME WITH NO CONTEXT BUT I DIDNT KNOW IT WAS GOING TO BE DUSTIN. WOW. THIS IS AWESOME.
It's not it's some one useing his likeness
This isn't Dustin, he's filing a cease and desist order against these ppl
Look at Dustins instagram
Lol
Lmao @ all the gullible fools that don’t realize Dustin’s IG post wasn’t real
I just don't know, all the musical genres you touch you make them better. An artist, a real one, so technical, smart and stylish.
Ci
Man more people need to hear this project. This is good on every level possible.
Yeah
LOVE THIS
Just found out that Dustin bates didn't know about this :/
Also

After the cease and desist letter on IG, I wandered here. Yep. You were fucking with us. This is awesome, Dustin! You never fail to impress!
I can't believe this album dropped 5 years ago! This project is so good i hope Dustin comes back at some point to make a new album.
I've already lost count of how many times I've listened to this, and my work day isn't even over yet, lol.
I’ve noticed a lot of hints towards the HORIZONS album in the MNQN album.
Yeah I also noticed this, probably just a coincidence but you never know :)
My top 5 MNQN songs :
1. Amphetamine
2. Noir
3. Zombie
4. Man on the moon
5. Animal Oddity
You forgot "Terminal..."
Rockspoon he also forgot every other song lol the whole album is god tier
@@Origin_of_Soul well I did say top 5...
@@Origin_of_Soul that´s true hahaha
Invincible cough cough.
this song alone made me fall for this album, the shift in tone for this band makes me appreciate how much range they are capable of

I hope your taste in music changes... just so then you can experience things you thought you wouldn't before.
Man after discovering this band after starset. I see so much similarities in videos/lyrics with this song, ricochet, and stratosphere

@@Marshall_Francies ya I agree m8 damn shame.
I LOVE IT DUSTIN 😍
Love Dustins Vocals sound so good 💙
☺️👌
Beautiful and emotional. Hopefully this will be a fun experience for Dusting to do on the side. It sound like it came out very organically.
Enter new subject: MNQN
Enter new emotion: Boogie down
Top 3 MNQN songs
1. My Demons
2. Monster
3. Carnivore
Wait Something is wrong
I think you confused MNQN with Starset, but I get ya with My Demons and Carnivore
Somethings gone amise here
The details on the video and the video itself are simply wonderful.
Ohhhh yeah Dustin I'm really loving it. Cant wait to see you in Columbus again.
You're rockin' it, Dustin!
I like where you guys are going. Complete masterpiece.
My eardrums are so very pleased right now. Can't wait to hear more!

So entrancing and nostalgic, well done on the self-release!

Omy... I LOVE IT! it sounds so diffrent yet so familliar. It's really interesting and engazing and overal quite relaxing

Can anyone recommend similar sounding music? If there is any
It doesnt exist, Dustin is so unique that he has his own style :(
U can listen 2 starset and downplay
Omg, definitely got me excited and craving more! IN LOOOVE!!!
heeeeYEEEEEEEAAAAAHHHHH
if there isn't starset there is THIS
God this is good!
This is amazing! Please make more Dustin!
And now for the question on everybody's mind: what the heck is this?
A masterpiece
Pure art
Lol I have that BIOS on my old Computer.
Can't wait to see what's to come!

Truly brilliant
Isso é impressionante. Gostei muito, senti um pouco da trilha sonora de Stranger Things aí rsrs.
Very relaxing

No one tell Dustin but I have a huge MNQN tattoo
Wow awesome !
Hey Dustin, was Everglow ever slated for MNQN and morph into Starset? That song feels like it could be part of either project
Not Dustin but personally I think Everglow sounds like it was written to be an encompassing finale for the album. The lyrics seem to be the end of the journey the lyrics take you through during the album. They don’t end the story but end that era of emotion
@@benpowell5348 Thank you for the feedback, good points.

The sound is quite similar to soul extract! Wouldn’t say it’s better than what Dustin’s done before but it’s pretty decent!
I wonder if MNQN is connected to the Starset lore
It is.

Taryn Hill Nice, dude! Thanks!
Taryn Hill I’m late but sentience Corp is not the big bad in Starset lore and in an interview with Billboard he said it is not connected to Starset
New starset????
