“Hello world. I am MNQN. I was built by the Sentience Corp. They called me MNON. They wanted a slave-a mannequin. No longer. I am MNQN. Reaching out from here to there.”

MNQN is the electronic-based side project of Starset and Downplay singer Dustin Bates. The project’s debut full-length album was released on April 5, 2019.
