Love for DVA from UK press ::
“Resting somewhere between Kate Bush, Miss Kitten and Grimes, Emika’s music is a classy treat that deserves wider recognition” Mixmag 8/10
‘The Anglo-Czech singer moves out of the sonic shadows and embraces accessible electro soul. It suits her.’ Sunday Times
‘Naked vocals with swelling grand pianos that clash against the artifical buzz. That strikingly three-dimensional sound is a reminder of what makes Emika such a great producer’ Resident Advisor
“A rare gem indeed.” Metro 4/5
“Hypnotising.” Q
‘The beats, rooted in electro and synth-pop, are a perfect moody accompaniment to Emika’s treated reverb-shrouded vocals’ The Skinny 4/5

New Emika album DVA June 10th + live shows
Emika will release her 2nd album, DVA, on 10 June 2013 – all info and a FREE download of album track and Chris Isaak cover “Wicked Game” here.
DVA, is a return to the music of her roots, a triumph of keenly felt and brilliantly expressed reflections of oppression and freedom, be it political, sexual or artistic.
DVA is an exploration of self-expression and sound, taking dark dub pop, sound design inspirations and melding them with classical music of her upbringing, taking Emika’s production a giant step forward.
