Sirenglas goes on a journey to the wilderness in "Forest Mother": A tormented and chilling ballad.
Mutable in genre and categories, "Forest Mother" captures a dark, enchanting atmosphere that lingers after the last note is played. A musician based in Vancouver, Sirenglas has gained a following in the darkwave and synthpop genres by haunting its listeners with a song about an ancient forest goddess that is both benevolent and malevolent through the juxtaposition of mythical and modern sound design.
The song launches with sharp synth textures and indistinct ambient sounds before it plunges into a somber and sound-laden forest. The beat then balances a steady medium, like a pulse in nature, as mysterious and reverb-laden vocal calls peek through like whispers in the mist. Lyrically, "Forest Mother" is equally rich and demonstrative, encapsulating the idea that the forest itself is a spirit ("a spirit whose mission is to protect us from ourselves and punish when required"), therefore containing the duality of the forest's beauty and ferocity.
Sirenglas is a hybrid project of spectral AI-human that merges analog emotion and digital precision to create a soundscape that is simultaneously deeply human and harshly synthetic.
“Forest Mother” is not simply a song; rather, it is an invocation. It beckons the listener to explore the liminal space between reality, folklore, machine memory, and natural myth. “Forest Mother” is a notable release in this case. It conveys the wildness of nature in sound and crystallizes Sirenglas as a new name in the darkwave scene.
