Monolink Showcases His Storytelling Mastery In New Single, “Mesmerized”

by Michael Ryan · Published January 24, 2025

Monolink has an uncanny ability to fuse raw emotion with irresistible rhythm, and his new single, "Mesmerized," speaks to that introspective yet danceable balance.

Out now on Embassy One, "Mesmerized" is a poetic track with a magnetic pull, inviting us to surrender to its haunting soundscapes. Entwine vulnerable depths with soulful grooves, the song acts as the perfect backdrop for moments of reflection, either alone or on the dancefloor.

"'Mesmerized' is a song about the gravity of human connection," Monolink explained in a press release. "It's about vulnerability, surrender, and the fear of stepping into the unknown. It was the first song I wrote when we started working on my new album and it somehow turned into the sonic journey that it is now."

In the song's striking music video, directed by Nicola von Leffern and starring Jana McKinnon and Simon Frühwirth, we watch a couple's passionate relationship become fractured by a fear of abandonment. Filmed on a volcanic island in Italy called Stromboli, the video expertly pairs with Monolink's powerful storytelling.
