“AUSTRALIA HAS A NEW RNB PRINCESS ON THE RISE, AND HER NAME IS EMALIA.” –THOMAS BLEACH
“EMALIA IS AUSTRALIA’S NEXT RNB QUEEN.” – THE AU REVIEW
“THIS IS AN ARTIST WHO REALLY HAS IT ALL – THE SOUND, THE VOICE, THE CHARISMA – IT IS NOT A STRETCH TO SAY EMALIA CAN EASILY STAND SHOULDER TO SHOULDER WITH SOME OF THE WORLD’S TOP TIER ARTISTS.” – WOMEN IN POP
“POP SENSATION EMALIA HAS QUICKLY GARNERED A REPUTATION ACROSS THE AUS SCENE.” – AUDOLLARS

With tongue in cheek metaphors and playful lyricism, ‘SUPREME’ is all about self-confidence and individual empowerment.
“I was able to reconnect with my love of music in the process of making it with a group of wonderful collaborators. I wrote these songs as a means of uplifting myself during a dark period and reflecting on the positive lessons I’ve learnt out of negative situations. I only hope it can do the same for others. It’s the type of project I hope you can use as a mood or confidence booster and connect with your higher self.” Said, EMALIA.
Many of these songs were written with Nardean and Chelsea Warner (who also acted as executive producer on most of the tracks). Other collaborators include Beso Palma, Thom Crawford and Hugh Lake. Emalia shows off her vocal engineering and vocal production chops on this project, having recorded and comped most of the vocals in her bedroom home studio. It is her first independently released project.

TRACK BY TRACK
Stacks
Stacks is the ultimate manifestation song on the EP, setting the tone for the whole project right from the get-go. Believing in yourself and the vision you have for your life makes all the difference to your success and the way you experience the world.
Written by Emalia, Chelsea Warner, Nardean
Produced by Chelsea Warner
Mix & Master by Thom Crawford
Sofa
A seductive homage to a past flame sprawled with the classic soulful sounds of R&B. This is the perfect song to listen to when you want to feel sexy and powerful.
Written by Emalia, Chelsea Warner, Nardean
Produced by Chelsea Warner
Mix/Master by Thom Crawford
U.F.O.
Over the course of my life I’ve often felt misunderstood, like a bit of an alien who strayed from my home planet. ‘U.F.O.’ is all about owning your differences and finding belonging in the process. Alignment with your truest self, despite feeling like an outsider, is what attracts the right people into your life in the first place.
Written by Emalia, Thom Crawford, Hugh Lake

Angels All Gucci
The sultry ‘Angels All Gucci’ is a reclamation of one’s voice. It’s a 90’s R&B inspired anthem that celebrates femininity and speaking one’s mind. The concept challenges the idea of what a ‘good girl’ is expected to be in society and rejects the notion it puts forward.
Written by Emalia, Chelsea Warner, Nardean
Produced by Chelsea Warner
Mix & Master by Thom Crawford
Supreme
The titular lead single, ‘Supreme’ acknowledges the power of independence. Written after a confronting experience in a nightclub, it is a bold commentary on the sexualisation of women, while championing self-love and the revival of personal power.
Written by Emalia, Pat Byrne
Produced by Beso Palma, Chelsea Warner
Mix & Master by Thom Crawford

AMNPLIFY – DB
My nickname is “The Amnplifier”. Why? Because around here my focus is on being a conduit for providing greater outcomes that people come here for. My day to day “work” is living in the moment, and I love helping others concentrate on finding their connection to themselves through their experiences.
Why start a music environment? The truth is I love music, I love writing, and I love life. I work with musicians every day, and I feel certain that I will be until they put me in the ground. I have been managing people in businesses of some sort for over thirty five years so along the way I have developed some “wisdom” from my regular and constant “observations”.
Amnplify your experience. That is what we want you to do here, and if you want to let me know why you do, or don’t, shoot me a message on Facebook.
Hope you enjoy yourself here and find something that hits you somewhere.
