Lyrically inspired by dreams, isolation and death, Aythis aims to be timeless and isolated from human nature.
Aythis' harmonies are created by the alchemy of depressive keyboard atmospheres, haunting and hypnotic melodies, ethereal voice and dark orchestral drums.
In July 2007, Aythis catches the interest of the english label Paradigms Recordings that releases Aythis' debut album Doppelgänger in November 2007.
After the success of DOPPELGÄNGER, Aythis gets in contact with the well-known french label Prikosnovénie that releases the second album Glacia in March 2009, a work that turns out to be more orchestral. GLACIA paints a picture of wintry, icy and desolated landscapes and receives very positive feedbacks from the press and the listeners.
One year later, the composition of the third album begins. Aythis signs with Twilight Records to release the follow-up for GLACIA, called The New Earth. This third album melt many influences and results in an unique blend of ethereal, neoclassical, neofolk rythmed by bombastic drums. THE NEW EARTH is was released in June 2011.
In 2016 fourth album " The Illusion And The Twin" was released by Carline's Label: Orcynia Music Productions .
AYTHIS is back in 2021 with a new album SECRETS FROM BELOW, taking the listener to hidden places, underneath the surface of the earth and into desolated forest, the above, the below. Sonically, the guitars are more present, giving at time a shoegaze/post-rock feeling and a melancholy that would appeal to any fan of dark ethereal music.
The immersive keyboards and dreamy piano melodies are not left out, adding to the overall atmosphere, and to the neo-classical/ambient touch that has always been part of AYTHIS' sound.
Also two videoclips are made, (Ashes and Secrets) both available on Aythis Instagram and Youtube profiles.

Moonlit Path
Aythis Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The rope softens, my hands keep on freezing
I gaze towards the horizon,
Towards the land you promised me
I have no fears even if I feel everything is falling…
for everything that falls is falling with me
I still can hear it like a dead shriek
Could I have wanted more?
Haven't I always dreamt of this?
Oblivion
Each breath is now taking me further
Oblivion
Night's air has become a blanket
Oblivion
covering me more with each move
See, the moonlight has formed her one way path
...Look up the skies... Their realm has never seemed so calm
....never seemed so calm
I close my eyes... Now I can close my eyes...
The lyrics of Aythis's song "Moonlit Path" speak of a journey that goes beyond the material world. The singer is sailing on a boat across sparkling lakes, towards a promised land. The rope softens, and the singer's hands are freezing, but she has no fear, even though everything seems to be falling apart. The falling of everything is a metaphor for how the singer is letting go of her past, and embracing the unknown future.
The singer hears a voice calling her back, possibly a symbolic representation of her past, but she wants to move forward, towards the oblivion. She wonders if she could have wanted more, or if she has always dreamt of this oblivion. Each breath is taking her further towards the oblivion, and the night's air is like a blanket covering her, as she moves along the moonlit path. The path formed by the moonlight is a metaphor for the journey that the singer is taking, and how it is illuminated by the positivity and hope of the moon.
Overall, "Moonlit Path" is a song that speaks of embracing the unknown, and letting go of the past to move towards a better future. The journey may not be easy, but it is illuminated by positivity and hope, represented by the moonlight.

Beyond sparkling lakes my boat keeps on sailing
I am continuing on my journey even though there are obstacles in my way
The rope softens, my hands keep on freezing
Things may become difficult on this journey, but I will persevere
I gaze towards the horizon,
I am looking towards the future and all it holds
Towards the land you promised me
I am hopeful that I will reach my destination and fulfill my dreams
I have no fears even if I feel everything is falling…
I am not afraid even if things seem to be going wrong
for everything that falls is falling with me
I find comfort in the fact that I am not alone in my struggles
Your voice calling me back
I am reminded of the past and the person who motivated me to take this journey
I still can hear it like a dead shriek
Although the memory of that person is fading, I still hold on to their words of encouragement
Could I have wanted more?
I am content with what I have and the journey I am on
Haven't I always dreamt of this?
This journey has always been my dream and I am excited to see it through
Oblivion
I am lost in thought and forgetting about the world around me
Each breath is now taking me further
I am getting closer and closer to my destination with every breath I take
Night's air has become a blanket
The night is comforting me as I continue on my journey
covering me more with each move
As I progress on my journey, I feel more and more at peace with myself
See, the moonlight has formed her one way path
The moon is guiding me on this journey and is showing me the way forward
...Look up the skies... Their realm has never seemed so calm
When I look up at the sky, I see that everything is peaceful and I feel a sense of tranquility
....never seemed so calm
The sky has never looked so still and serene
I close my eyes... Now I can close my eyes...
I am able to relax and let my thoughts drift away as I continue on my journey
