Matreya is stepping into a thrilling new era, marking his return with a striking reinvention that reflects both artistic and personal transformation. Previously operating under the name Mason Noise, the Birmingham-based artist has shed his past identity to emerge with a fresh perspective and an exciting new sound. His journey from an X Factor contestant to a forward-thinking solo artist is one of determination, embracing change and bringing to life his own sonic world exactly as he sees it.
His music channels this spirit, crafting a cinematic sound that blend alternative R&B, pop and Afro-world influences into something immersive and truly compelling. With a strong focus on soul, spirituality and personal reflection, his artistic output presents a sensory experience designed to inspire others. “I want my music to bring joy and consciousness. My mission is to inspire people to look inside themselves, face challenges, and embrace transformation,” he shares.
Now crystallising his artistic rebirth, he brings us his brand new debut single with the track titled “Eagles,” an incredible statement of artistic intent that marks his arrival as Matreya in spectacular fashion. The lead single from his upcoming full-length record, Anchor, the track serves up a grooving pop-focused sound cut with alternative R&B aesthetic and wrapped in a mesmerising sonic atmosphere.
Opened by Matreya’s hushed vocalisations, singing “I will soar again like the eagles, I will fly just like the birds,” sentiments that echo his own creative transformation, hazy textures and the rising patter of percussion usher in his soulful lead voice. Stitching elegant melodic leads into the shimmering musical fabric, warm piano chords and airy instrumental twinkles glide into a dazzling chorus of the catchy main hook as woozy synth notes ring out.
Stacking up his vocal layers to cast an enchanting sonic spell, the smooth ebb and flow of the arrangement carries the listener to a hypnotic scene of transportive musical bliss that’s at once infectious and dreamy. With subtly impactful beats injecting a gently danceable sway, the immersive blend of instrumentation is capped by Matreya’s astonishing vocal performance that takes flight to high soar above, conjuring vivid imagery of majestic eagles sweeping across the sky.
Accompanying the single is a stunning music video directed by Melanie Pyne and produced by Kym Musgrove that sees Matreya travelling across breathtaking mountainous landscapes, metaphorically mirroring his own ongoing adventure. It’s an engrossing visual pairing for Matreya’s truly sensational new single, a release that’s sure to see him spread his wings and fly as an artist making a welcome return with an extraordinary new musical vision.
