British-Norwegian singer-songwriter Emilie Adams shares electrifying new single ‘Play God’.

Reminiscent of dark pop powerhouse Banks, ‘Play God’ is nothing less than addictive. With a magnetic intensity and deeply resonant vocals, Emilie explores power dynamics to a perfect storm of broody electronica. "There's so much injustice in the world and I feel powerless towards that as well as things in my own life," Emilie explains. "There's a sense of frustration that there's something outside of ourselves that makes us feel small and insignificant. Playing with us, robbing us of our autonomy, making us feel out of control and helpless. I am proud of the lyrics and melody but what I love the most is that you can remove both and still feel the energy. It permeates everything - even the production."

Bold and hypnotic, ‘Play God’ is the beginning of a new chapter for Emilie Adams. Crafting irresistible soundscapes that seem infused with lightning and the essence of wild, grey oceans, she puts herself on the map as a force to be reckoned with and fuels excitement for all that is yet to come.
