Background
The title track 'Emperor' was written and produced for inclusion on Indigo Peak's sixth studio album 'Never Really Gone'. Five additional tracks were written and co-produced with Alesha for inclusion on the EP. The release was described as "an expansion of the NRG universe" by Yannik Cassenove via his official Twitter account following its announcement.

August 22nd saw the trio release the 1986 mix of Emperor to streaming platforms alongside their cover of Peter Gabriel/Kate Bush classic 'Don't Give Up' which also provided the sample for the aforementioned mix.

Music Video
An accompanying video directed by frequent Indigo Peak collaborator Øystein Aspelund was released via YouTube on May 17th, 2021. The video was filmed in and around Pinewood Studios and makes heavy use of CGI to give the impression that the Indigo Peak and Alesha are in a desert. The video features surreal landscapes, culminating in a black and white outro featuring the trio tarting about with water.

Reception
The video was met with critical acclaim, obviously.
