## Name

The title "Now" means "present" and also a word that is a reversed version of "Mon", which makes up the group's name. It symbolizes the identity and point in time that make up the current Monsta X.[1]

## Background

### *Vol.1*

It contains ten re-recorded tracks from different albums released from 2021 to 2023, including the voice of [Shownu](/source/Shownu), who was unable to participate in those albums due to [military service](/source/Conscription_in_South_Korea), in commemoration of the group's 10th debut anniversary.[2] The selected tracks also consisted of ones that the group members wrote, composed, and produced.[3]

## Composition

### *Vol.1*

The tracks range from energetic in the disco funk genre to emotional songs with warm melodies and impressive piano melodies, diverse songs that are reinterpreted in a new way, and the familiar yet deeper sound and expressiveness that only Monsta X can provide.[4]
