Alex Beck “Wishful Thinking”

Alex Beck Wishful Thinking

“Wishful Thinking” feels like a prolonged nostalgia, echoing in the sultry summertime dizziness, where romance and heartache intertwined at high-speed towards a destined ending. The Los Angeles artist Alex Beck opens the track with a sun-gazed drone-like soundscape, brewing the story about pain and a new beginning with lightheartedness and rich melancholy.

Beck has a voice that reminds you of the calm ocean wave on a mid-summer afternoon when the wind is soft and the sands are warm. Her vocals evoke a contemporary vintage-filtered revival that navigates storytelling and anthemic hooks with grace.

“Wishful Thinking” is about leaving something behind. At the end of the road, when you look back at the worst and the best before sailing out on a new adventure, the feeling is a complicated mix. Alex Beck captures that moment between heaviness and light so perfectly with a blend of her lush, laid-back vocal and elevated dance beats. Saying goodbye is a celebration on its own.

Introspection and euphoric catharsis, Beck manages to execute both ideas perfectly into one single song. Like a kaleidoscope that varies every time you look into it, the multi-faceted track explores a broad range of palettes under different circumstances. It’s the perfect soundtrack for late-night contemplation, and it also makes a good choice for a breakup dance party.
