Röyksopp has announced the release of their highly anticipated album, True Electric, set to drop on April 11, 2025. This album is a follow-up to their surprise ambient record, Nebulous Nights (An Ambient Excursion Into Profound Mysteries), which released in late 2024. The duo describes True Electric as a collection of updated recordings designed to capture the energy of their 2023 live shows, with a focus on their club-oriented sound and electronic roots.
The lead single, “What Else Is There? (True Electric),” features Fever Ray and Trentemøller. This reimagining of their 2005 track from The Understanding elevates the intensity, reflecting the vibe of their live performances. The album also includes updates of older classics like “The Girl and the Robot” and “Monument,” both featuring Robyn.
In a press release, the Norwegian duo—Svein Berge and Torbjørn Bruntland—shared:
“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.”
In addition to the album, Röyksopp is embarking on a global DJ tour starting January 24 in Milan, Italy. The tour spans Europe, Australia, and North America, including stops in London, Toronto, Los Angeles, and New York. A special triple vinyl and double CD edition of the album will also be available on May 9, featuring bonus content such as a fold-out poster and an eight-page booklet.
