From Piano to Pulse: Accio Balances Mood and Movement on “Like A Ghost”

Accio, the new alias of classically trained pianist and producer Chris Costello, continues his artistic evolution with the evocative single “Like A Ghost.” Departing from his earlier festival-ready progressive house sound, Accio leans into a more atmospheric and emotionally rich terrain, crafting music that feels both personal and immersive.

“Like A Ghost” opens gently with a delicate piano motif that feels like a whispered invitation, gradually enveloped by lush synth textures and understated percussion. The vocal lines hover with a wistful tenderness, weaving a narrative of longing that resonates deeply without ever feeling overbearing. As the track builds, it maintains a careful balance — eschewing explosive drops in favour of nuanced shifts in mood and dynamics.

When the drop lands, it brings a grounded warmth through its steady bassline and subtle rhythmic drive, anchoring the ethereal soundscape with a pulse that moves the listener both physically and emotionally. This track exemplifies Accio’s talent for blending introspection with dancefloor sensibility, making “Like A Ghost” a standout piece for late-night sets or focused listening sessions.

With “Like A Ghost,” Accio asserts himself as a producer capable of marrying classical sensibility with contemporary electronic storytelling, inviting listeners into a space where mood and melody reign supreme.
