Music video

The music video was directed by Dalton Campbell. It featured footage of Galantis on tour and fan testimonials. Natalie Rao of This Song Is Sick described the video as "equally fun-loving" as the song. [2] [4]

Critical reception

David Rishty of Billboard magazine wrote: "In true Galantis fashion, their latest output embraces warm pads, bright percussion and soaring vocals that confidently skate between dance and pop." Natalie Rao of This Song Is Sick wrote: "'True Feeling' draws you in from the first note with a subdued, tropical-style lead-in. The lyrics pair well with the steady build of the production, breaking into a lighthearted drop that ties together tropical notes, upbeat percussion and smooth vocals." [4] Matthew Meadow of YourEDM regarded the song as "a bouncy and vocal-driven melody" and is "EDM pop at its purest". [2] Steph Evans of Earmilk described the song as "infectious". [5] Lisa-sun Nguyen of EDM Identity wrote: "The track captures the essence of Galantis with crisp vocals and a fun-loving sound." [6] Rajrishi Murthi of the Bangin Beats wrote: "Mesmerizing male vocals take over the proceedings before being joined by airy chords which dominate the breaks. With a subtle percussive work on offer, the buildup leaves us to the climax with a playful, bouncy lead fit for the ongoing summer season." [7]
