WATCH: Roller Derby – ‘Emily’s Dance’

Hamburg-based dream pop duo Roller Derby have released their latest single, ‘Emily’s Dance’. This is the fourth single from their much-anticipated debut album, which is set for release early next year. Following performances at Reeperbahn Festival, SXSW, and opening for German band Madsen, the duo have cemented their reputation as a consistent and distinct force in the dream pop genre, earning airplay from Radio X’s John Kennedy and Amazing Radio’s Charlie Ashcroft.

Accompanied by a vibrant and engaging masterpiece of an animated video crafted by Johannes Walenta, ‘Emily’s Dance’ reflects the duo’s signature style: blending dreamy, contemporary influences with nostalgic ’80s vibes. The song opens with luscious synth-driven melodies supported with softly delivered vocals, adding a layer of melancholia and vulnerability; complemented by delicately dreamy guitar riffs. Subtle changes in dynamics and texture keep the song engaging, with swirling melodies, funk-fuelled basslines, and floating guitar licks that dance over the track’s rich layers.

Produced by Moses Schneider, the production feels polished and satisfying, balancing stripped-back verses with expansive choruses, which are marked by thick vocal harmonies, enveloping the listener in a lush warmth.

Lyrically, ‘Emily’s Dance’ is an introspective exploration of time, space, and human connection. The track delves into themes of insignificance and loneliness in this vast universe. Yet it offers a glimmer of hope — that “one day the planets will align” to bring harmony. It reflects a common human struggle, of existentialism and our yearning for meaning and companionship.

With their signature nostalgic sound, Roller Derby continue to captivate and I look forward to what their album has to offer.



When The Night Comes, the upcoming debut album from Roller Derby, is due for release on 28th February 2025. And you can catch the duo live when they’re over in the UK for a small run of live dates in May, including at The Lexington in London on 9th May – tickets and info here.
