Every so often, an artist emerges who doesn’t just make music but crafts an experience—one that pulls you in, makes you feel, and leaves you wanting more. Brisbane-based singer, songwriter, producer, and sound engineer FELIXX MOSES is exactly that kind of artist. He isn’t just performing his songs; he’s shaping every note, every beat, and every emotion into something personal. His recent single, “Falling,” released on January 29, is an evidence to his evolution from a folk artist to a polished Afropop sensation, capturing the magic of love with a groove that stays with you long after the song ends.
From the get-go, “Falling” wastes no time in setting the mood. The track opens with a warm, inviting atmosphere that feels like a gentle sunrise, soft yet full of promise. A subtle percussive rhythm sneaks in, laying the groundwork for something special, while deep, resonant bass notes anchor in the progression. And just when you’re fully immersed in this sonic embrace, FELIXX’s voice enters—smooth, velvety, and effortlessly magnetic.
He doesn’t just sing—he glides through melodies like a storyteller unraveling a romance. His vocal delivery is rich with emotion, effortlessly shifting between warm lower tones and airy falsettos that dance over the instrumental like a soft breeze. There’s an undeniable sincerity in his voice, a rawness that makes every lyric personal. His performance is intimate yet expansive, drawing you into the very moment of falling in love.
At its heart, “Falling” is about that exhilarating, almost dreamlike phase of love—the butterflies, the uncertainty, the undeniable pull toward someone special. Inspired by a real-life encounter with his girlfriend, FELIXX turns a personal moment into a universally relatable experience. The chorus is infectious, effortlessly weaving itself into your memory, making you want to sing along before the song even ends. I’m definitely going to keep coming back to this song to play it for a number of times.
Musically, “Falling” is a masterclass in Afropop elegance. Drawing inspiration from the rhythmic brilliance of Davido’s “Fall” and Adekunle Gold’s “Okay,” FELIXX builds a vibrant and soothing soundscape. The percussion carries an irresistible bounce, driven by crisp drum patterns that blend traditional afrobeat influences with modern pop polish. The bassline is deep and hypnotic, pulsing with a groove that keeps the energy alive, while the electric piano chords add warmth and nostalgia. It’s the kind of track that feels tailor-made for sunsets, long drives, and stolen glances between lovers.
With “Falling,” FELIXX MOSES cements himself as more than just an emerging talent—he is a force in the making, blending heartfelt storytelling with masterful production. If this track is any indication of what’s to come, then the world should prepare to witness the rise of an artist who doesn’t just create music; he creates moments. I urge you to give this track a spin; it’s one of those rare Afropop songs wrapped in beautiful composition and production. Your playlist needs this one.
