Early reviews of the remix include:
“Felix Jaehn looks to keep his fire ablaze in 2015 with his first remix of the year: a melodic/tropical rework of Alina Baraz and Galimatias’ ‘Fantasy.’ Baraz’s delicate vocals present an open opportunity for Jaehn to do what he does best and apply his effervescent production skills to her spry chorus lines. The German talent strips Galimatias’ emotive instrumental to paint the perfect summer day with wispy xylophone treads and resilient chord sweeps inanother impressive remix from the upcoming producer.” – Austin Evenson, Dancing Astronaut (4/7/15)
“The team of Alina Baraz & Galimatias has seen an insurmountable amount of success, and it’s no secret as to why. They’ve created simply astounding material together, and now the official remixes are beginning to roll in with a new contribution from Felix Jaehn. The tone is completely shifted from slow and sultry to upbeat and radiant as the future house influence charges full steam ahead. There’s something very Gryffin-esque about this tune, and if you aren’t familiar with Gryffin, that’s certainly a positive thing.” – Mitch Marzuola, The Music Ninja (4/7/15)
“The master of beachside beats, Felix Jaehn, is back and better than ever with a remix of Alina Baraz and Galimatias’ ‘Fantasy.’ Despite the original’s more seductive nature, the German producer brings out the adolescent tendencies deep within us as he layers a buoyant percussion arrangement and spirited xylophone line that only make you want to smile.” – Shaun, KickKickSnare(4/7/15)
“If there was any question about Felix Jaehn’s talent, it should be answered with this track. As a teenager, he’s already had a track, his remix of
‘Cheerleader’ by OMI, chart in over 18 countries, turning him into an international sensation. Armed with his signature style of melodic house music, Jaehn gave Alina Baraz and Galimatias’ indie-dance track, ‘Fantasy,’ a sunny, house makeover. Baraz’s airy vocals serve as the perfect complement as Jaehn works his magic on the track, weaving together catchy xylophone riffs with radiant piano progressions and a playful bassline that bring back memories of
lazy summer days by the pool sipping on a cool drink.” – Gmoney, Fresh New Tracks (4/7/15)
“The German don of all vibes tropical and melodic, Felix Jaehn, is back at it again with his latest remix of Alina Baraz & Galimatias’ ‘Fantasy.’ Splashing beach-ready xylophone taps and pitter-patter percussion atop of Baraz’s vocals, Felix Jaehn is already in summer mode and we aremore than ok with that.” — EDM Sauce (4/7/15)
“Coming from a classically trained background, Felix Jaehn expertly crafts his unique compositions with lively melodies, and a variety of sun-soaked instruments that give his tracks an instantly recognizable touch. On his remix of ‘Fantasy,’ his immense musical ability shines through as he takes Baraz’s angelic vocals and Galimatias’ silky smooth production head-on, giving the track his signature tropical flair. By layering a shimmering xylophone melody with subtle hi-hats, and radiant piano chord progressions that perfectly complement Baraz’s vocals, Felix Jaehn has delivered yet another stunning, yet playful, remix to add to his swiftly growing catalog of hits.” – Chubby Beavers (4/7/15)
