Diving into Matreya’s notable and cathartic past, we get the impression that he’s been on a journey of growth and transformation all along. First gaining fame through The X Factor in 2015, the Birmingham-based creative slowly evolved from his early moniker, Mason Noise, into a more spiritually conscious being, an enlightened human willing to accept a brighter, more grounded future.
In that sense, ‘I Saw The Light’ is a rather crucial record, a wonderful and evocative piece that further expands Matreya’s artistic arc, following up from the project’s debut single ‘Eagles’. In it, we find a mature artistic figure and a world-infused production flair, the perfect backdrop for the British talent’s intimate and nuanced storytelling. Delving into his fight with depression, Matreya finds a way out thanks to spirituality and Reiki, a discovery that motivates him to share his experience with any like-minded listener out there.
Matreya has a lot in store for the future, and not just music. Alongside ‘I Saw The Light’, the artist is also launching “#FromDarknessToLight, a heartfelt video series where Matreya sits down with some of the world’s most inspiring healers, yoga teachers, and spiritual leaders to talk openly about anxiety, depression, and alternative paths to wellness.”
