EMMS player for mpv already exists, even 2 players!:

  https://github.com/dochang/emms-player-mpv
  https://github.com/momomo5717/emms-player-simple-mpv

Note: 'emms-player-simple-mpv' is much more powerful; it allows you to
send commands to mpv on the fly through a socket file (via JSON IPC
protocol).
