‘Moon’ by Freyr is a chill EDM/House instrumental that takes you on a haunting journey. The song attempts to capture the emotion one would feel while basking in the glow of the full moon.
Its production uses a looped piano, soft percussion and wavy synths to evoke the tranquil beauty of the moon on a full-moon night. These elements give the song a fleeting, ephemeral mood, reminiscent of that feeling when you catch a glimpse of the moon at its brightest.

‘Moon’ and its Production
The vocals on ‘Moon’ serve to fill the spaces in between. They act as transition points from one section of the song to the other, guiding the listener through the song’s mood. The song’s muddy piano is reverbed and low in the mix, utilising space to expand the song’s soundscape.
The song’s light syncopated rhythm keeps it moving through variation. It doesn’t take away from the song’s ephemeral mood but keeps the listener engaged throughout. The beat isn’t loud or invasive, rather, it stays in line with the subdued nature of the song’s production. It doesn’t push out or try to grab the listener’s attention, it’s only present to keep the listener listening.
Ultimately, Freyr’s ‘Moon’ is an easy listen, keeping its listeners engaged while it takes them on a tranquil journey. One could almost picture listening to the song while on a late-night drive on a bright full-moon night.
