Röyksopp have shared their new single ‘Impossible’ and announced details of their “expanded creative universe and prodigious conceptual project”, ‘Profound Mysteries’.The Norwegian duo previously said “goodbye to the traditional album format” following the release of their fifth LP ‘The Inevitable End’ in 2014, but vowed to continue making music together.Following on from the recent releases of their singles ‘(Nothing But) Ashes…’ and ‘The Ladder’, Röyksopp have today (February 2) announced more details about ‘Profound Mysteries’.“As human beings, what we don’t know vastly overshadows what we do know,” Röyksopp’s Svein Berge and Torbjørn Brundtland said in a statement. “As teenagers, we would discuss our own fascination and preoccupation with the infinite and the impossible – the most profound mysteries of life.”The pair’s cryptic audio-visual project, which can be accessed online here, is being accompanied by a 10-track record which is set for release on April 29.
