Arrow Santi, a rapper from Long Island, NY, brings an amazing blend of energy-filled choruses and melodic, carefree verses to his music. Despite personal issues and trials, Arrow’s songs frequently radiate a cheerful and optimistic vibe. His songs convey an array of moods and emotions, demonstrating his versatility as an artist. He has a devoted fan base that enjoys his ability to portray diverse musical styles in his work.
Arrow Santi has released a new album, “Sanctuary of Serenity” featuring 12 songs.
The album opens with “Angelic,” a laidback yet addictive track. Gentle synths nestle among a bouncing bassline, conjuring a hazy yet buoyant atmosphere. Arrow’s velvety vocals smooth over the infectious instrumentation.
“Too Far Gone (Hardly)” opens with a wistful synth introduction that transports the listener to a more serene plane. Though brief at just over two minutes, the track packs an emotive punch through Arrow’s heartfelt rap delivery and the evocative instrumentation underneath. His vocal performance conveys sadness and vulnerability, baring sincere feelings. Gentle piano notes float amid a melancholy bassline and beats, the keys and bass providing atmospheric support for Arrow’s words.

“Said & Done” shows off Arrow’s sweet, tender vocal tone. Though vulnerability emerges in his voice, the delivery stands apart from a traditional rap style and is pleasantly soft-spoken in nature. Melancholic guitar riffs provide a consistent backdrop against which the bassline ebbs and flows, crafting an engaging rhythm. Atmospheric synth patches also enhance the track.
“Make Me Feel Like” by Arrow Santi changes the mood of the album. From the start, it feels odd and unnerving. The bassline plays slowly and quietly in the background. Dark, creepy synths hang over everything. Arrow’s vocals are processed to sound distant and machine-like. Whispery female vocals briefly come in and fade away like ghosts. They add to the eerie feeling.
“Tattered” maintains a moody sonic atmosphere. He has threaded nimble melodies throughout with artistic grace, his rapping style coming to the fore against the track’s subdued instrumental blend. The guitars strike delicate chords that nonetheless sustain brooding undertones, pairing well with beats that punctuate the rhythm without overpowering Arrow’s lyrical delivery.
You can find Arrow at his most reflective self in “No Harm.” Over a moody instrumental landscape of swirling guitars and understated beats, he wrestles with worries and fears on the periphery of his mind. His vocals are both haunting and comforting, floating above the music yet grounding the whole composition.
“Lifetime” has really nice melodies. The female voice at the intro caught me off guard. As the song goes on, things get better and better with the music, emotions, and singing. The beat is really catchy. The electronic sounds and keys change in different ways but keep a beautiful melody. Arrow’s vocals on this piece truly dazzle with talent and charisma, brilliantly conveying a heartfelt feeling. It must be stated without hesitation that as of now, for me, this song work stands out as my favorite so far.

“If You Never Died” pulls you in with an emotional depth and melodic intrigue that’s hard to escape. The atmospheric synths offer lush textures, swirling gently around upbeat beats that propel the slowly swaying vibe forward. As the track envelops you, you feel yourself being carried along – almost floating – lost in the song’s poignant and soothing soundscape.
“Time Passed” showcases Arrow’s impressive artistic skills over enthralling production. His rap delivery is top-notch, flowing with conviction over dynamic, keys-driven beats. The instrumental is truly next-level, lacing sweeping synth work and pounding beats into an infectious groove sure to have heads nodding.
“Unforgiving Father Time” by Arrow Santi instantly transports you back in time from the first delicate notes. I loved the saxophone incorporation that ushers in this journey. A vintage vibe envelops you, yet the seamless blending of retro instrumentation with a modern edge keeps things refreshingly novel. The pulsating rhythm and atmospheric vocals create an entrancing spell that’s difficult to escape. Subtle keys shimmer beneath a swinging beat to carry the listener along effortlessly. Layered sounds swirl together to form hypnotic textures that feel crisp yet lush.
“Fade Away” proves that brevity need not diminish the impact. It sets a dreamy, atmospheric scene for the mind. Occasional moments of stripped-back vulnerability in the main vocal are complemented perfectly by wisps of feminine voices emerging from the ether.
“Pain & Fame” brings the album to a poignant close. Beautiful ambient female vocals open the track, her melodic voice painting a thoughtful scene before the pulsing beats and bass join. The juxtaposition of contemplative keys alongside an uplifting rhythm is extremely well executed. As always, Arrow’s vocals are a highlight, shining through with emotion and skill. The saxophone work also deserves recognition for adding artistic flair. Just past the halfway point, a rap segment is inserted that will truly give your mind a workout. The delivery is impressive. This song expertly brings together diverse sounds and talents into a cohesive and memorable ending for the album.
