(September 29, 2026) Sometimes you just want the world and its concerns to disappear and for everything to center on one location and one person. We all know that’s a temporary situation, but if we’re in the presence of the right person, we will gladly accept being the only two people who exist.
Patrice Isley speaks to those sentiments in her new single “Take Me In Your Arms.” “Take Me In Your Arms” is a contemporary ballad with a classic, old-school sound. The tune is conversationally sensual and seductive without being needlessly explicit. Isley, with her five-octave voice, outlines a passion-filled encounter between two people on an audible canvas and allows her listeners to fill that outline with their own imaginations.
“Take Me In Your Arms” is a mid-tempo cut that is propelled by smooth bass line that grounds airy keyboards, tight backing vocals, and percussion accents. Isley is a veteran vocalist who has worked with everyone from Teddy Pendergrass to Coolio. The song is everything that fans of soul music have come to expect from Expansion Records, the UK based independent label that has been releasing quality music for years.
