The Midnight

The Japanese term “Mono no aware” refers to the sad beauty of seeing time pass, the aching awareness of the impermenance of that which we experience. Within their synthpop retrowave sound, The Midnight successfully tells the stories of Mono no aware, and captures that nostalgia that we feel even if we have never lived the lives they sing about. The Midnight consists of Tyler Lyle (a songwriter from the Deep South) and Tim McEwan (a producer from Denmark).
