New single Towards a Remedy

Out now!

Short pitch:

Towards a Remedy is ARSADI’s widescreen Swedish indie-rock anthem—shimmering synths, driving guitars and a soaring, resolute hook. Lyrically, it’s a cinematic road-north on the E4, where resilience meets release: “Sometimes down is the way to the top.” Produced by the band with Christoffer Parning Finnson, mixed by Finnson and mastered by Jacob Alberts, the track fuses reflective poetry with arena-ready lift. It continues ARSADI’s waterfall rollout with debut single Closer, with the third single Neon Moonlight on the horizon.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

ARSADI – Towards a Remedy

Out now via Rexius Records - Waterfall release with Closer


Uppsala’s ARSADI return with Towards a Remedy, a widescreen slice of Swedish indie rock that marries lyrical introspection with an anthemic, open-road rush. Built on shimmering synths, luminous guitars and a pulsing rhythm section, the track captures a late-night drive up the E4—searching, steady, and ultimately cathartic.


Frontman Anthony Bachtiar and Nils Oberg sketch the scene in vivid detail: violet skies over spruce forests, gravel roads that slow time, and a quiet conviction that resilience is learned, not given. The refrain—“Sometimes down is the way to the top”—lands like a mantra, turning private doubt into a communal sing-along.


Produced by ARSADI alongside Christoffer Parning Finnson, mixed by Finnson and mastered by Jacob Alberts, Towards a Remedy channels the band’s signature blend: literate, emotionally honest songwriting framed by textured, arena-leaning sonics. Malkolm Bonander’s drums drive the song’s forward motion while Ida Bachtiar’s harmonies add warmth to the widescreen chorus.


Towards a Remedy continues ARSADI’s waterfall rollout following the first single Closer, with the next chapter Neon Moonlight on the horizon. It’s a statement of intent from a band that balances thoughtfulness with play—the sage’s eye for detail, the crowd’s love for release.


For fans of Deportees, Shout Out Louds, Parcels, Karakou and the melodic expansiveness of modern indie pop/rock, ARSADI offer a generous, big-hearted anthem built for late-night highways and festival fields alike.

ARSADI Bio

Indie Rock with a Grand Pop Heart


ARSADI crafts emotionally rich indie rock shaped by shimmering synths, rhythmic guitar work, and sweeping vocals. Based in Uppsala, Sweden, their sound blends alt-leaning rock with the infectious energy of arena pop—perfect for euphoric playlists and emotionally charged road trip soundtracks. Fans of kent, Deportees, Shout Out Louds, and Coldplay will feel right at home in ARSADI’s lyrically rich world full of high emotion and captivating anthems.


Formed after frontman Anthony Bachtiar returned from music studies in London, ARSADI grew from solo demos into a full band driven by artistic exploration and playful energy. The group—Anthony, Nils Öberg, Feria Hikmet, and Malkolm Bonander—earned early acclaim through groove-tinged, eclectic pop that evolved into a bold, unified sound: Indie rock with soaring melodies, textured production, anthemic pop hooks, and emotional resonance.


Their 2023 EP Introspections marked a turning point, praised for its polished production and lyrical depth. Tracks like Overcome the Night and Fade In Fade Out explore anxiety, resilience, and the pursuit of happiness through poetic allegories and references to literature and visual art.


After winning regional competitions and repeatedly playing the biggest stage at Uppsala's Kulturnatten Festival, ARSADI enters a new chapter with Rexius Records. A fresh wave of releases will continue channeling their emotionally driven, high-energy sound toward the big stage.


"I don’t get it how they manage to succeed time after time. I’m still blown away of how good, professional and magnificent their music is. […] So extremely many people deserve to hear it because it is truly, sincerely, genuinely good. I really hope that more people will find ARSADI!"
– Drefvet.se
"They always succeed with the art of outperforming themselves, to develop the band, tweak some knobs here and there so that the soundscape becomes more grandiose and magnificent for every release. ‘If You Were Mine’ is no exception. Upbeat. Contagious. Soaring. Majestic. All ingredients that (I hope) will take ARSADI out to the greater mass."
– Drefvet.se
"ARSADI unleashes a musical daydream with, ‘If You Were Mine’, a track detailing the vivid imagination of a future based upon nothing more than the sight of a complete stranger. [...] The vocal style fits that dreamy vibe and the melody is soft and engaging. There is a definite Coldplay aura to this single, and the energy builds as the track progresses to keep you immersed in the lyrics and performance"
