Sydney, Australia-based singer/songwriter ElementxL (pronounced Elemental) brings a refreshing take on R&B/hiphop music in his latest release "Playing Games." The self-produced jam explores the dynamic of a one-sided relationship and the emotional tug and pull that comes with trying to connect with someone who is emotionally absent. The instrumentation has a summery and warm feel and comprises bright guitar riffs and lush pads with a smooth head-nodding drum groove all underpinned by ElementxL's rich vocals.
The song also comes with a music video that captures ElementxL in his element. The simple shots are punctuated by a stop-motion effect with retro textures reminiscent of the 90s and early 2000s.
