The music video is based on the sensation of synaesthesia, where visual movements are ‘heard’ as sound. Initially, the video was inspired by the narrative of the lyrics, capturing the emotional essence of the story. From there, we created a sonic counterpart to the visuals based on our own perception.

During the creative process, each fragmented image—whether the disappearing characters or the shifting fog—acted as a visual cue for the sound we internally heard and aimed to recreate. The autumn fog, with every swirl and shift in the mist is heard as a dark ambient drone. The elusive movements of the narrator’s ‘ghost from the past’ is entangled with the sound of the echoes.

 

 

Lyrics  

 

Na Cherveno – At Dawn

 

Like dozens of heroin needles

past years pierce my brain

Memories diffuse through the pores of my skin 

in the vacuum of autumn 

The mournful scent of dry leaves

takes me back along the paths I never walked

Echoes of the past remind me

not to awaken the ghosts as they sleep

I quietly step to the dawn
