Is it normal that the e in mannen and vatten sounds like a letter a or is it the recording?
No, but it sounds correct here. I think you may be expecting the wrong sound - Swedish vowels can be long or short, and the e is short in both of those cases. These videos on Swedish vowels are really helpful: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCUb87YTKOTgnGcAM4toC-6A
