WEON (MonoNeon x Kriswontwo) is an experimental duo with bassist MonoNeon and producer Kriswontwo. "Neon The Won" is WEON's second project since their first release in 2013. 

On this new release they invited some friends to be part of the sound. The project features David "Fuze" Fiuczynski (guitarist for Hiromi, Screaming Headless Torsos, Jack Dejohnette, Meshell Ndegeocello), Jerome Flood (drummer for August Alsina), Lance Lucas (keyboard wizard has worked with Virgil Donati, Anthony Crawford, etc), Amber Baker (drummer/solo artist) and Mojcksn (singer/lyricist from the family group Jcksn Avenue, has worked with PJ Morton and etc). 

Some of MonoNeon’s inspiration for creating the new music came from his fascination with neon light installations art by Dan Flavin and Peter Kennedy and microtonality/quarter-tone sounds which can be heard on “Neon Eggs & Ham”. 

The sonic side of things is handled by Kriswontwo. Everything from pitching MonoNeon's live-bass to drum programming, synths & arrangements. This is what makes this project one of a kind. It's a collaboration of a bassplayer & a producer/engineer. Both these artists are completely free-minded, which means there are no limits to which frequencies this duo can vibe on.

Lyrics by MonoNeon 

The other night it was a table for two
Tonight it's a table for one
I can't believe all the fun is done
I guess our party wasn't meant to see the sun
I wanted you to stay till sunrise
Holding you tight because I know it will feel right

It shouldn't be that serious
It shouldn't be that sad
But damn I miss you
I wish our party would've last

The world keeps on spinning, spinning (that's what they tell me)
But I'm gonna' pretend that you didn't leave
Saying your name, saying I love you
Over and over again
Hoping that you hear me wherever you are
Thru my heart and to the stars

It shouldn't be that serious
It shouldn't be that sad
But damn I miss you
I wish our party would've last

She told me that I'm gonna' miss her when she's gone
She told me to think of her when I'm alone

Sometimes it's hard to be alone
But I'm gonna' have a party on my own
Finding my own happines, finding my own happiness

"WISH OUR PARTY WOULD'VE LAST" - MonoNeon

He is the type of person who loves music so much that he decided to make music of his own.
