Monolink Releases “Powerful Play”

Out now via Embassy One, the new single drops alongside a poignant music video, produced by acclaimed Copenhagen-based filmmakers FRANZI.

Marking the latest chapter in his prolific musical journey, Berlin-based record producer, singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Monolink unveils his stunning new single, “Powerful Play” out now via Embassy One. Following the success of “Mesmerized” in January and its stripped-back acoustic counterpart in February, “Powerful Play” further demonstrates Monolink’s ability to craft immersive sonic experiences that resonate deeply with global audiences, as he fuses evocative storytelling with his signature blend of organic instrumentation and electronic treatment, to explore themes of impermanence, presence and the unstoppable rhythm of life.

With a deeply introspective and poetic essence built upon Monolink’s layered vocals, spirited rhythms and poignant storytelling, “Powerful Play” invites listeners to embrace the fleeting nature of existence and immerse themselves in the beauty of the moment; his distinctive blend of electronic beats and raw acoustic elements serving as a perfect backdrop to the song’s profound lyrical depth.

The single is accompanied by a visually arresting official music video, produced by the Copenhagen-based film production company FRANZI. Directed by acclaimed filmmaker Vasco Alexandre, the video delves into the intimate and complex dynamics of siblinghood, portraying the bond between two brothers as a fragile yet indestructible connection shaped by shared history and unspoken emotions. A ghostly presence—a spectral embodiment of their relationship—shadows their journey, symbolizing the silent struggles and triumphs that intertwine their lives.

Blending surreal imagery with stark reality, the film captures the brothers in a dreamlike, psychedelic odyssey where the boundary between consciousness and sub-consciousness blurs. The mysterious figure that follows them intensifies the eerie, chaotic undertone of their story, culminating in a cathartic release. In the video’s final sequence, the brothers break free in a sprint of pure, raw energy, shedding the weight of their past and embracing an unshackled future. This moment of liberation underscores the song’s central theme: no matter what trials we face, the powerful play goes on.

With “Powerful Play,” Monolink once again showcases his ability to create music that resonates on both an emotional and philosophical level. This new single serves as an anthem for embracing the present, allowing the rhythm of life to unfold naturally, and recognizing the power of resilience and renewal.
