Earlier today I introduced you LA-based collective wst cmplx and their single "FLOWERS TO THE FALLEN", but I feel a single track isn't enough to grasp the talent of these artists, so it's time to explore their latest release, "MOVING FORWARD".
The song kicks with a gospel piano, jazzy saxophone and downtempo-like vocal ambiance before it belts out into a gorgeous syncopated beat-driven symphony. Originally conceived in 2022 from an idea that wst cmplx's keyboardist Alex had tucked away, "MOVING FORWARD" resurfaced in 2024, rooted in themes of self-forgiveness and personal growth. With its signature West Coast r&b vibe, the track serves as a gentle reminder that transformation is always within reach, even when life feels uncertain.
If you vibe with the art of SAULT, I feel this will feel like home.
