Monolink Unveils First Single Of 2025 With ‘Mesmerized’

Inaugurating 2025 with his first original production of the year, internationally celebrated German record producer and live act Monolink returns with his brand new single, Mesmerized. Famed for his inimitable song-writing skills and unique ability to blend his own soulful vocals with infectious, electronic soundscapes, Monolink once again delivers a record that captivates both body and mind as he paves the way for another landmark year of new original music. Out now via Berlin-based record label Embassy One, Mesmerized offers a rich tapestry of emotion, rhythm and storytelling that further solidifies Monolink’s place as one of the most innovative voices in music today.

From the very first note, Mesmerized draws listeners into a world of contrasts. Deep longing is intertwined with stirring instrumentation, as Steffen Linck’s pensive lyrics glide over layers of pulsating percussion and moody synths, creating a track that’s equally suited for moonlit dancefloors and reflective moments. It’s a journey that balances vulnerability and groove, inviting listeners to get lost in its hypnotic embrace.

Speaking about the new single Monolink commented:

““Mesmerized” is a song about the gravity of human connection. 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.”

Accompanying Mesmerized is a visually stunning music video that unfolds as a surreal and dark love story. Directed by Nicola von Leffern and starring Jana McKinnon and Simon Frühwirth, it follows Ava and August, a couple whose passionate relationship is strained by fear of abandonment, deep emotional wounds and toxic fights. Despite moments of vulnerability, tenderness and devotion, their connection is still shadowed by a simmering darkness. The narrative plays out against the striking backdrop of Stromboli, a volcanic island in Italy known for its recent eruptions — a powerful metaphor for their tumultuous relationship. Dream-like sequences add an ethereal quality that blurs the lines between reality and emotion, mirroring the fragile, volatile nature of their love.

A master of weaving narratives through sound, Monolink continues to break boundaries between electronic production and live performance. His music resonates on a deeply human level, inviting listeners into a sonic world that is as personal as it is universal. With Mesmerized, he reaffirms his talent for creating music that doesn’t just move your feet, but also stirs your soul.
