Nordic Playlist and interview of Emiliana

Emiliana made a playlist for Nordicplaylist.com of her favorite Scandinavian songs.

You released your fourth album Tookah last year, an album which you described as an exploratory album, to truly find your own sound. Can you tell us a little more about what you had in mind when creating the album, and what some of the most meaningful tracks for you are?

There were two things - I had to jump into the cold pool to wash a few old spirits, to let them go and then to just dance. We were working on a side project that then ended up being my record. I needed that approach to not question everything we were doing. The most fun part of it was the soundscape to have two stories going on - a lyrical visual and a sound visual. I love listening to some of the tracks like a song called "Elísabet", an ode to my aunty Elísabet, just instrumentally. It has raged mountain images for me. The most meaningful songs, one that keeps coming with me and has a kind of magical effect on me is "Blood Red". It takes me to somewhere ancient, I can't really explain it. The whole record is meaningful to me, I have got some really proud moments on there.
