Home Featured Röyksopp surprise drops new album ‘Nebulous Nights’: Listen

Röyksopp has surprised the world with a beautiful new album, ‘Nebulous Nights – An Ambient Excursion Into Profound Mysterious,’ that explores new sounds as well as the old. 

If you have never taken the opportunity to listen to the Norwegian duo Röyksopp, do yourself a favor and open their catalog immediately. The two have created some of the most mesmerizing tracks over the last two decades. Now, they return for the first time this year as they have officially surprised dropped their newest album, Nebulous Nights – An Ambient Excursion Into Profound Mysterious.

According to Röyksopp, this album is a re-interpretation of their 2022 album series,Profound Mysteries.’ Recorded live in a late-night session, Nebulous Nights is a nearly two-and-a-half-hour journey that will completely take over your senses and captivate you as it drops you into this ambient world that Röyksopp has beautifully built. What might be the most amazing part of the project is that you can hear the use of analog throughout this album, which gives it a sense of warmth and vastness that you can’t replicate from digital production. 

Outside the pure listening pleasure, Nebulous Nights seeks to underline the importance of critical thinking and curious pondering. To foster a mindset that allows for exploration and personal growth, by not limiting one’s imagination and inquiry to a particular worldview or framework.
