“Automatic” by PantherWolfe is a captivating fusion of genres that establishes a unique soundscape PantherWolfe aptly names “phonkrun.” Combining the driving rhythms of EDM, the nostalgic allure of synthwave, and the gritty edge of phonk, this track is a bold statement of artistic innovation. The determined and resolute mood resonates throughout, creating an atmosphere that feels both futuristic and grounded, a sonic journey that pulls you into its pulsating core.
The track opens with crisp, retro-futuristic stabbing broken chord synths that immediately set the tone, evoking imagery of neon-lit streets and high-speed chases. Glitched synths and gritty distorted vocals follow, with soon-to-be-more broken chord additional synths introducing layer after layer under a controlled sense of navigation that PantherWolfe manages to creatively hold together. Continuing on, a rise and then a drop at around the one-plus minute mark expands the range with multiple vocal layers in a distorted and glitchy intensity that contrasts beautifully with the smooth, melodic elements of synthwave. The EDM undertones drive the energy forward with a positive vibe throughout, making “Automatic” both an immersive listening experience and a perfect backdrop for late-night drives or intense workouts.
PantherWolfe, a synthwave/electro artist hailing from Las Vegas, showcases a keen ability to blend genres seamlessly. His “phonkrun” style not only distinguishes him in the electronic music scene but also highlights his versatility and commitment to pushing boundaries. “Automatic” stands as a testament to PantherWolfe’s artistry, reflecting the dynamic and ever-evolving nature of modern electronic music. Whether you’re a fan of synthwave, EDM, or phonk, this track is a must-listen, offering something refreshingly different with every play. – Review by 44faced
