Swedish electro-pop artist GINAxC has returned with a slithering, sultry banger that sinks deep into the skin and doesn’t let go. ''Like a Snake,'' released on March 27, 2025, is a masterclass in slow-burn seduction, a hypnotic dance-pop track that coils around you with every beat. Known for blending emotional depth with slick, dancefloor-ready production, GINAxC shows once again why she’s become a force in the electro-pop scene, with over 250,000 streams and growing global airplay to prove it. This time, she’s pulling listeners into the space between lust and danger, and it’s thrilling.
From the opening notes, ''Like a Snake'' sets a mood, dark, dreamlike, and dripping with tension. A pulsing bass line flickers beneath sensual, whispery vocals, as GINAxC crafts a sonic atmosphere where every breath feels intimate, and every pause says more than the lyrics. The production is minimal but intentional, each layer added like a brushstroke on silk. When the chorus hits — smooth, infectious, and wicked — it doesn't explode; it unwinds, wrapping itself around you with a slow, deliberate rhythm made for midnight.
Lyrically, GINAxC explores that charged, electric moment before touch, the tension that crackles between two people when everything is unsaid, yet understood. There’s a danger to it, a playfulness, a challenge. Her voice slinks through the verses like velvet, only to shimmer with power in the chorus. Critics have praised this contrast, and rightly so — the hushed vulnerability of her tone gives the track its allure, while her vocal control gives it strength. As Analogue Trash put it: "the hushed sensuality of the vocals brings an air of mystery and danger", and that’s precisely the magic.
While GINAxC has roots in ballads, her transition into dance-pop has been seamless. With Like a Snake, she strikes the balance between club-ready energy and lyrical depth, offering something more than just a beat; she gives us a story. And this one is as much about power as it is about passion. It’s the dance before the kiss, the moment of eye contact across a crowded room, the adrenaline of giving in. It’s a song designed to be felt in the bones, not just heard in the ears.
As GINAxC continues to evolve, ''Like a Snake'' feels a pivotal moment, where her signature sound has crystallised into something haunting and addictive. Whether you're drawn in by the production, the vocals, or the intoxicating mood, one thing is clear: this track slithers its way into your bloodstream and stays there. So dim the lights, turn the volume up, and let yourself get caught — ''Like a Snake'' was made to mesmerise.
