Song of the Day: Vices – Arash Nejad

A sombre yet compelling drive introduces ARASH NEJAD‘s debut single, ‘Vices’, putting him in very good stead as a serious contender in UK’s alternative R&B/Neo soul scene. The single then flourishes into a fresh, sultry take on slow jam as we know it, with Arash’s perfectly paired vocal performance, vividly narrating his strong addiction on one of his greatest vices – his love interest. As the single unholds, you can feel an intense desperation and raw desire that lingers long after the single ends.

From listening to ‘Vices’, it’s clear that Arash draws inspiration from urban music heavyweights such as Beyoncé, Michael Jackson and Frank Ocean. Fans of these artists are likely to find his sound equally compelling, as he blends familiar influences with a style that feels distinctly his own.

With ‘Vices’ covering themes of love and addiction with such emotional depth, it’s exciting to see what topics he explores next. I got a feeling he’s got so much to say and this debut offering is just a tip of a very large and complex iceburg. His strong sound creates an airy mystery around him with little known beyond the fact that he’s based somewhere in South East England. As his musicial journey unravels, I suspect he will reveal a piece of his world one chapter at a time and in my book that is enough to hang around for his next move…

‘Vices’ is now available now for your pleasure…why not check it out below…

Proudly presenting new single and video ‘In Love With Your Being’ by incredible UK singer/songwriter – Man At Sea

Existential singer-songwriter showcases songwriting craft with eleven new songs

The new studio album ‘Pale Fire Catch Me’ by Man at Sea is a striking first full-length statement that pitches classic songwriting craft within a modern, searching landscape.

The album leans into a classic sensibility not unfamiliar to fans of Rufus Wainwright and Father John Misty: understated arrangements led by strong melodies, and an emphasis on song craft that recalls the enduring legacy of classic songwriters from the sixties and seventies.

‘Pale Fire Catch M’ explores themes of doubt, whether in love or life as well as themes of devotion, or lack of in an increasingly secular world. Across eleven songs, Man at Sea wrestles openly with modern disillusionment and isolation — not offering answers so much as honest questions, held together by rich arrangements and deeply expressive vocals.

11 tracks reveal a songwriter coming into his own, displaying a highly tuned sense of song craft by a songwriter drawn to melody and emotional depth over trend-driven production. ‘Pale Fire Catch Me’ is the sound of an artist standing at the edge of a renewed belief in something— perhaps just in himself. 

Together, these tracks establish ‘Pale Fire Catch Me’ as an album built on classic songwriting values — melody, narrative lyricism, and emotional intelligence — while staying unmistakably rooted in the contemporary.
