Imagine, if you will, a carousel spinning wildly in the dusk; horses painted with myriad hues of emotions, up and down they go—joy interlaced with trepidations. This is “Welcome” by VOST, a maelstrom of melody concocted deep within the reverberating walls of a Stuttgart rehearsal room where each echo seems to whisper life’s profound complexities. From the very first chord struck by Ben and Manu on their guitars—a feverish blend of melancholy twangs resonating with 80s prog rock spirits—you’re escorted into an arena where Pink Floyd meets Dream Theater for an introspective dialogue over coffee.

VOST's 'Welcome': A Symphony of Emotions Imagine, if you will, a carousel spinning wildly in the dusk; horses painted with myriad hues of emotions, up and down they go—joy interlaced with trepidations. This is "Welcome" by VOST, a maelstrom of melody concocted deep within the reverberating walls of a Stuttgart rehearsal room where each echo seems to whisper life’s profound complexities. https://open.spotify.com/track/1qIrNgKm5uA9Na0htuYGFc From the very first chord struck by Ben and Manu on their guitars—a feverish blend of melancholy twangs resonating with 80s prog rock spirits—you're escorted into an arena where Pink Floyd meets Dream Theater for an introspective dialogue over coffee. And there stands Alex, his drums not merely instruments but thick books slamming open one after another; chapters filled with pulsing beats telling stories of expectancy and apprehension surrounding new fatherhood—the pounding heartbeats as Manu awaited his daughter's first breath. Mike anchors this vertiginous experience not just with strings tightly wound on his bass but also infuses soul-stirring background harmonies that breathe undertones of bittersweet joy, much like sunlight seeping hesitantly through storm clouds. Herein lies the duality - each note carries weight yet levitates like leaves dancing around a wild autumnal gust. [caption id="attachment_55737" align="alignnone" width="872"] VOST's 'Welcome': A Symphony of Emotions[/caption] You’re immersed in their audio cosmos that ferries you from elation to sorrow without odd transitions—it flows seamlessly as rivers meet oceans undeniably super catchy but equally gut-tugging because here's music made not simply to be heard but felt threadbare—one beat at a time. To sit back after such enthralling waves wash over you is akin to stepping out dazzle-eyed post-midnight cinema: An urgent need grips your core—to restart “Welcome” all over again or perhaps never leave its embrace? Simple it may seem now; love embodied through chords—a magical ode echoing endlessly in hearts touched. Follow VOST on Website, Facebook, YouTube and Instagram.
