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.

Silvery Night
Aythis Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The cimmerian shades became sole season
The bleak moonscapes can shed a tear
Time went away.
A silvery night, when your embrace becomes dust
The Sienna skies, in a garden of mistrust
While the heavens burn in frame of lie
Silhouettes eluded from my closed eyes,
From my dream, from my dimness.
I've let the wind of clay wear out my eyes,
I've let the solemn air overcome me.
A silvery night, when your embrace becomes dust
The Sienna skies, in a garden of mistrust
While the heavens burn in frame of lie
In the death of your dream, in the dead of night.
We carelessly stay and behold the silvery way
The banks of our dying world, our empty rivers
We could scream, bleed or cry all our sullen tears
This is our last hour,
This is our last time.
The lyrics of Aythis's song "Silvery Night" depict a somber atmosphere of despair and loss. The opening lines, "Mist cloaked dormant rivers / The cimmerian shades became sole season" give a sense of stillness and a lack of movement or progress. The singer is lost in a world that seems unchanging and unrelenting in its bleakness. The following line, "The bleak moonscapes can shed a tear / Time went away," further emphasizes a sense of timelessness, where even the moon - a typical symbol of change - is overcome with sadness and unable to change the stagnant state of the world.
The chorus contains repeated lines that build on these themes. The repetition of "A silvery night, when your embrace becomes dust / The Sienna skies, in a garden of mistrust" gives a sense of inevitability and the passage of time. The heavens burning in a "frame of lie" suggests a lack of truth or honesty in the world, and the death of one's dreams in the dead of night speaks to the loss and hopelessness that the singer feels.
The third stanza contains a sense of resignation and acceptance. The singer has "let the wind of clay wear out [their] eyes" and "let the solemn air overcome [them]." There is a sense of giving up, of being beaten down by the world and unable to fight back. The repetition of the chorus emphasizes the inevitability of the silvery night and the demise of the singer's dreams.
Overall, "Silvery Night" is a haunting and melancholic song that uses imagery and repetition to emphasize a sense of hopelessness and despair.
Line by Line Meaning
Mist cloaked dormant rivers
The still rivers have been shrouded by a thick layer of mist
The cimmerian shades became sole season
The dark shadows have become the only prevailing season
The bleak moonscapes can shed a tear
The desolate landscapes are capable of expressing sadness
Time went away.
Time has vanished
A silvery night, when your embrace becomes dust
The night is illuminated by a soft silver light, while the embrace of a loved one dissipates into nothingness
The Sienna skies, in a garden of mistrust
The skies are a warm, reddish-brown color, but there is an atmosphere of skepticism and doubt
While the heavens burn in frame of lie
Even though the skies are on fire, it feels insincere
In the death of your dream, in the dead of night.
Amidst the darkness of night, one's aspirations have been extinguished
Silhouettes eluded from my closed eyes,
Shapes and figures seem to escape from the artist's closed eyes
From my dream, from my dimness.
These shapes come from the artist's dreams and lack of clarity
I've let the wind of clay wear out my eyes,
The artist has allowed the elements to damage their eyesight
I've let the solemn air overcome me.
The artist is overpowered by a solemn and somber atmosphere
We carelessly stay and behold the silvery way
We remain nonchalant and observe the illuminated path
The banks of our dying world, our empty rivers
Our world is slowly dying and our rivers have lost their vitality
We could scream, bleed or cry all our sullen tears
We could express our anguish and sorrow if we chose to
This is our last hour,
We have reached the end
This is our last time.
This will be the final moment

I absolutely love this song! It makes me cry - not only cause it's sad, but cause it's so incredibly beautiful.... this magic tune, this unearthly pure, calm voice.. it's been haunting me since I heard it first time, so I keep coming back here, again and again :)

Andy Goldsworthy is one of my favorite artists! His documentary "Rivers and Tides" is gorgeous and a perfect accompaniment as a music video for this beautiful and spellbinding song. I have listened to this song sooo many times! Carline Van Roos is a Goddess!
