If you go into the wide Blue Yonder, you go somewhere far away that seems exciting because it is not known.

Blue Yonder - Brian Seznec

The Quiet Wars drifts through the battles no one sees—the ones fought behind tired eyes, in late-night reflections, and in the spaces between who we are and who we’re trying to be. It follows a wandering soul moving through city streets and inner shadows, wrestling with blurred truths, fading comforts, and the ghosts of his own making. Yet beneath all the noise, there’s a quiet pulse of hope: a hum of love, a searching spirit, a song that keeps going even when he can’t. It’s a story of losing and rising in the same breath, of fighting without glory, and finding small, steady light in the dark.

The Quiet Wars erzählt von jenen Kämpfen, die keiner sieht – den stillen Schlachten hinter müden Blicken, in nächtlichen Spiegeln und in den Zwischenräumen zwischen dem, was wir sind und dem, was wir sein wollen. Der Song begleitet eine verlorene Seele durch Stadtstraßen und innere Schatten, im Ringen mit verschwommenen Wahrheiten, flüchtigem Trost und selbstgemachten Geistern. Und doch pulsiert unter all dem Lärm ein zarter Funken Hoffnung: ein Summen von Liebe, ein suchender Geist, ein Song, der weiterspielt, selbst wenn man selbst nicht mehr kann. Es ist eine Geschichte vom Verlieren und Aufstehen im selben Atemzug, vom Kämpfen ohne Applaus – und vom Finden kleiner, beständiger Lichter im Dunkeln.

The Quiet Wars

There’s a soldier in the mirror
He’s got my eyes, but not my soul
He’s fighting ghosts that disappear
Every time I lose control

There’s a preacher on the TV
Selling comfort by the pound
And I wonder if he’d know me
If ever all the lights went down

Truth ain’t clean, it’s cut and scarred
Like a mirror in the dark

All the quiet wars I fight
Never make it to the news
Just a battle in the mirror light
Where I win and always lose

So I walk down 9th and Houston
Past the cafe, past the bar
All the voices sound like headlines
And I’m not sure who we are

But love still hums beneath the static
Like a record full of grace
And the song plays on, erratic
Till it finds a resting place

All the quiet wars I fight
Never make it to the news
Just a battle in the mirror light
Where I win and always lose

Still fighting, still losing
Still here

Phantasmagoria Pt. 1

and so the feeling that we had I know
it was a feeling that is fleeting, no?
in my heart, in my dreams, in my eyes
I feel, you know, it was

said in the dreaming hour,
I wasn't feeling quite right

you never had a chance

in the dreaming hours
i feel my heart inside in my heart

here we are at last 
images so strange
they'll take your breathe away
oh yes the midnight hour is fleeting
when lashes start to beating
i take, i dream, i know, i do

you you you never had a chance

"I was lucky to collaborate with friends in the studio when writing Get You High -- Sydney Wayser (of CLARA-NOVA) and Ryan Levine (of Wildling) helped create an atmosphere that I would like to live in forever.  It was a rainy day in LA...I remember having somewhat of a dulled, matte aura taking over my body and mood during the first few weeks of the year.  I've had constant reminders recently that this life we lead is soreal and fleeting, it's sometimes hard to see through it.  "Get You High" is my outlet to see through the haze, it's a vibe filled with analog dreams and organic performance.   It's amazing how a new song can breathe life into a new creative path...this is what gets me high.  A real, natural high." - MONOGEM

MONOGEM blends her own new wave of sultry with ethereal alt-pop. In 2017 she dropped her highly anticipated sophomore EP, "100%," as well as a Remix EP.  Her music video for "Wild" starring Coco Arquette (daughter of Courteney Cox & David Arquette) has been featured internationally by Good Morning America, E!, Daily Mail UK, Alternative Press, NYLON, Perez Hilton and more. MONOGEM has been playing Los Angeles at Soho House Hollywood & Malibu, as well as a sold out EP release show at the Bootleg Theater, a genre-bending event with Red Bull Sound Select at The Echo with LPX, and she closed out 2017 with a show at the Masonic Lodge at Hollywood Forever with UK artist Nilufer Yanya. Both KCRW and KCSN supported multiple tracks from "100%." Refinery 29 has called MONOGEM "a trailblazer of gender fluidity in the entertainment industry."

"Get You High" is the new single from MONOGEM - written with fellow born & raised LA based creatives Sydney Wayser of Clara-Nova and  Ryan Levine of Wildling.

Praise for "Get You High":

“Get You High” is the latest intoxicant from MONOGEM, the vehicle for seductive sounds of singer-songwriter Jen Hirsh. And if this one doesn’t get you in the mood to spoon on a stormy afternoon, you’d better check your pulse." - BuzzBands LA

"MONOGEM has released her best single to date – “Get You High.” Sensual and engrossing, this is one for your ultimate late night playlist." - KCRW DJ Marion Hodges, SXSW 2018 Preview

"In classic pop style, ‘Get You High’ builds slowly before exploding." - The 405

"Los Angeles’ princess of soulful electro-pop, MONOGEM, returns today with the breathtaking new single, “Get You High”. - Skope Magazine

"A slick, sexual anthem that hits all the right spots for the listener in a mere 4 minutes and 20 seconds. The song creates its own form of R&B, infused with a good dose of electro-pop goodness that shimmers and sparkles." - EARMILK

"Smoldering heater Get You High is her first single since her 2017 EP, 100%. Its muggy, steamy electro-soul and sweet vibey R&B pop leaves us flushed and fevered on this cool March morning."
- I Heart Moosiq

"Ever the mood setter, MONOGEM continues to show her mastery over emotion, utilizing a few brisk but enticing lyrical elements and soaking them in atmospheric-pop euphoria." - Grimy Goods
