Taking centre stage today is 21-year-old prodigy Arden, also known as Elliott Meldrum, as he unveils the highly anticipated single ‘I Don’t Sleep.’ Following the success of his 2023 debut project ‘Meraki,’ which amassed over 50,000 streams, Arden collaborates with BROOKFIELD (recognised for their work with Anne-Marie and Charlie XCX) to present a soul-stirring track.
‘I Don’t Sleep’ delves into the poignant theme of losing someone who truly understands, skillfully blending elements of hip-hop, electronic, and orchestral influences. Arden’s unique fusion transforms a ballad into an alt-pop masterpiece.
For those who appreciate The Feeling, Owl City and Imagine Dragons this track is perfect! And, for me, Arden’s vocals resonate with the spirit of Daniel Bedingfield, to deliver a standout chorus. The production also includes intricate synth work, creating a multi-layered experience.
The release of this track marks the start of what promises to be a monumental year for Arden. As fans anticipate more musical gems, Elliott expresses gratitude for any coverage or feedback, hoping listeners find joy in the culmination of his hard work and passion. ‘I Don’t Sleep’ isn’t just a song; it’s a testament to Arden’s undeniable talent and a preview of the musical brilliance anticipated in 2024.
