Röyksopp detail forthcoming album featuring Fever Ray collaboration, "What Else Is There?"

Following the surprise release of Röyksopp’s ambient album Nebulous Nights (An Ambient Excursion into Profound Mysteries), the acclaimed electronic duo of Svein Berge and Torbjørn Bruntland have returned with a forthcoming new album, True Electric.

The single is a new version of the classic Röyksopp track from their 2005 album, The Understanding. The accompanying visualiser for the single, directed by regular Röyksopp collaborator Stian Andersen, was recorded on location at the band’s 2023 True Electric show in Athens.

True Electric gathers together 19 studio versions of the music from Röyksopp’s True Electric tour in 2023, featuring previously unreleased track The “R” as well as newly-reworked versions of originals and remixes taken from their acclaimed catalogue. These include the celebrated Robyn collaboration "Do It Again" featuring Robyn, and "Running To The Sea", featuring Susanne Sundfør, as well as several tracks from their Profound Mysteries creative universe that resulted in three albums released throughout 2022.

Speaking about the album, Svein and Torbjørn explain: “«True Electric» consists of recordings and renditions, meant to capture the essence of our live shows bearing the same name. The idea was to put an emphasis on the clubbier aspects of our music, as well as returning to our roots within the realms of electronic music.”
