Matreya’s ‘Eagles’ is a Statement From an Artist Who’s Been Through the Fire and Come Out With Something Real to Say.

February 18, 2025

Matreya made his name with slick, confident performances and a bit of controversy to match. But ‘Eagles’ is miles away from all that. It’s introspective, raw, and brimming with the kind of depth that only comes from experience. Right from the opening harmonies, there’s a sense of stillness—like he’s exhaling years of searching in one long, breathy falsetto. The production is cinematic yet restrained, blending soulful R&B, pop, and Afro-world elements into something that feels expansive but never overworked.

Creative Powerhouse Ian Ward Is Giving It ‘One Shot’

February 18, 2025

Ian Ward’s new single, ‘One Shot’, channels the early 2010s style of Jason Mraz, and Bruno Mars. It’s an anthem of hope, love, and living life if it’s all that matters. It focuses on that struggle we all know, of young lovers caught between chasing their dreams, and following their hearts. The song captures a personal moment in Ian’s own life, on a love he once had, where he realised he had no time to wait, and, with a new confidence fuelled by his passion, he decides to pursue that love.
