Review: Fehrplay – Phantom (House)

This review covers the progressive house track Fehrplay – Phantom.

This track was released in 2013 as a single.

The track starts off interesting with a sub-melody and bassline. A major melody then gradually starts to fade in before fading out. After that, there is a chord melody that plays out which was pretty nice to listen to.

Once the drop hits, the main melody returns which is backed by a nice bassline-like pad. Eventually, the main portion of this track takes over which is a nice combination of chord melody and the main melody of this track. It’s a little difficult to describe, but it is a rather nice overall sound.

There’s really very little to criticize about this track. While it does use that big rise sound, this track uses a softer sound that has a sort of filtered white noise being a dominant sound in it. So, it wasn’t as cliche as other tracks I’ve heard.

Generally speaking, this was a rather pleasant listening experience. It has upbeat, yet calming melodies throughout. The way it was constructed was nice. An overall pretty good track.

Score
7.5/10
