ARCHANGEL carries similar themes but now reflects his journey toward healing from past emotions and experiences. He states, “It’s a representation of the change and evolution I’ve undergone over the past few years. The music here addresses my struggles with mental health, my relationships, and my family. It encompasses a mix of pain and growth, illustrating the significance of healing and progress.”

Through ARCHANGEL, midwxst engages in a creative exploration of his sound evolution. In his own words, “With this release, I have combined elements from my earlier works, like SUMMER03, Secrets, and E3, into a more sophisticated and precise depiction of my current self.” Despite the album’s brevity, running just under 35 minutes, midwxst’s music evokes deep emotions. For those seeking emotional and mental solace, the 22-year-old artist offers himself as your ARCHANGEL.
