Nervous City Nervous Self Shares New Single ‘Act V’
Nervous City Nervous Self is the artistic moniker of Swedish singer-songwriter David Josephson, who has unveiled his latest single ‘Act V’.
The captivating track merges genres of pop, singer-songwriter, and folktronica. The sonic masterpiece is a romantic ballad with melancholy undertones over a dreamy production featuring bass, bells, strings, guitar, drum machine, synthesizer, and chilling vocals.
‘Act V’ is a collaboration between Nervous City Nervous Self and producer Diamond Heist. They sent files back and forth between Uppsala and south of Sweden, the latter where Nervous City Nervous Self is currently located, and the result is a blend between an electronic dream-pop world and the equally other-worldly lyrics. The song was written a while back by Nervous City Nervous Self but has only now found its definitive shape.
‘Act V’ reveals a moment of bliss and birth under a vast honey-dripping sky. Although it is the final act, the fact is that it is a moment for re-birth. The next day, a new play, a new chance – for the lover and the clown, whose frown is just a smile upside down. And for Hedda Gabler, (the main character in Henrik Ibsen´s theatre play) only she knows, and the words that she whispers are spreading like wings of birds once kept inside but now released to the world, like drops of honey falling through the stratosphere.

Naud Takes Flight with ‘Un Gars Bian’: A Wild Ride of Music & Madness
Photo credit: Isis Mecheraf

After ten years of musical mischief, Naud has finally dropped anchor, or rather taken flight, with Un Gars Bian, an album that feels like a hug from an old friend and an impromptu dance party all at once. This high-energy, genre-mashing adventure blends alternative pop, electro, funk, and whatever else Naud felt like throwing into the mix. Think Marseille’s “joyous chaos” bottled up into soundwaves, bursting with playful unpredictability.
Leading things off is “Déjà Vu,” a sweet-and-sour love song about a romance that spanned across Europe but never quite took off, kind of like booking a first-class ticket to heartbreak. It’s got just the right mix of experimental vibes and catchy pop magic to make you groove while overthinking your past relationships.
The album title, Un Gars Bian, is a cheeky play on words, merging Marseille (city in France) slang for “seagull” (gabian) with “un gars bien” (a nice guy). It’s basically Naud in a nutshell: a free-spirited, big-hearted artist who wants to spread good vibes, reckless creativity, and a touch of joyful madness. And if that wasn’t enough, he’s also launched an Un Gars Bian t-shirt line, because what’s better than wearing your philosophy on your sleeve, literally? Grab yours here!
So, are you ready to embrace the joyful chaos? Un Gars Bian is the perfect excuse to dance like nobody’s watching and live life with a little more mischief. Let’s gooo!
