The debut single, Masterpiece, by Swedish-American musician and composer Asy Saavedra, is a scintillating Pop-Esque anthem. A magnificent fusion of energetic melodic sounds that are empowering and captivating. The lyrics, which center around the theme of not feeling like a masterpiece, are raw and honest with feelings of vulnerability. The song highlights Asy’s ability to turn personal struggles into a work of art.
“‘Masterpiece’ is about not being a masterpiece at all.
At the time of writing this song, I was going through a difficult phase, but every time I put on my headphones, and my producer hat, I felt like God. God energy emerges from the rubble of flaws, heartbreak and difficulty.” – Asy Saavedra
The accompanying music video, directed by Louise de Nexon, is visually stunning and incorporates fashion designer Sho Konishi’s avant-garde designs to good effect. The android look is striking and adds a futuristic edge to the video. The use of the piece that Sho had designed for Paris Hilton but never worn adds an extra layer of interest and intrigue to the video.
Masterpiece is a well-crafted and thought-provoking song that is sure to resonate with listeners.
