From noise to silence. From start to finish. It is commemorating the end of the cycle of the debut album “Unreflected Mirror” (2018) that Hamen release the acoustic version of “Chimerical Love” in single and video format. Accompanied only by the piano, vocalist Monica Possel shows her vocal range and technique in one of the most loved songs by fans.
“After a year of pandemic and after achieving public recognition, we want to celebrate this delivery of fans. We wanted to deliver something of value to them and that’s why we tried in every way to make new material that could impact them, in the same way that our fans impacted us during the pandemic. In this way, we started to produce a reinterpretation of this song, one of the most listened to by the public”, says Monica Possel.
The release of the acoustic version of “Chimerical Love” represents the end of a cycle, but it doesn’t mean goodbye. It is the celebration of a milestone, an achievement that deserves to be shared with fans. This is Hamen’s first professional clip and has a script that refers to the idea of the main character of the song, who is in search of love, although she doesn’t know if it exists, living an experience of platonic love.
“We sought to highlight the piano, because it is also a protagonist in this story. An intimate environment was created, which at the same time incorporates energy and vigor, referring to the character’s emotions when not finding her novel.”, evaluates Monica.
