Emily Mulenga makes her debut with ‘Oliver’. Written about desiring the attention of this almighty individual, Emily showcases her tastes and talent in this catchy introduction. Whoever this Oliver is, they must be a stand up guy.
Recorded and written entirely by Emily, this DIY project dabbles between the genres of Pop and Dance to create a sound that feels familiar and immediately engaging. Its intro takes its time, with ominous synthesisers setting the tone, before it snaps into a groove with the drums. Emily’s vocals dance atop this throwback instrumental, delivering a monologue of adoration for this Oliver lad. Even going so far as to admit “simping” over him.
It feels like a modern take on love and crushes, and the song reflects that with a performance that feels playful but also quite emotional. ‘Oliver’ is a great way to introduce yourself, Emily Mulenga has certainly put herself on the map here.
