On September 21st, symphonic death metal collective MaYaN will enlighten your spirit with their epic new album “Dhyana”.
For this prodigious third studio masterpiece, the international 10 piece raised over €40.000 through a crowdfunding campaign to be able to enlist the skills of The City Of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra, known for their work in cinematic features such as the Star Wars saga, Hannibal and many more.
The new full-length release reflects on conceptual themes such as self awareness and relinquishing our ego and self-conceited tendencies to find out who we truly are.
Today, you can finally get a first impression of Dhyana through the band's first single, “The Rhythm of Freedom” that comes with a lyric video. Watch it below.
Mastermind Mark Jansen states:
“"The Rhythm of Freedom" references the sensation of pure freedom you feel when riding your bike or bicycle. This also refers to the album title "Dhyana", which stands for the moment where the mind gets absorbed by the heart and you feel total happiness without worries about the past and future. But the mind, like a predator, is always waiting for the moment to take over control again. We picked this song as our first single as it's the first impression people will get from the new MaYaN album. In it you hear the dynamic sounds in our music, layered with the City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra who we recorded this album with. Expect a song that is heavy, yet melodic. Enjoy!”...
