The album trilogy is a result of their new way of releasing music as they big goodbye to "the traditional album format" after releasing "The Inevitable End" in 2014, but they clarified that they will continue making music as a duo.
Röyksopp's 'Profound Mysteries II'
In a previous interview, Svein Berge reveals how they came up with collaborating with Norwegian chartreuse Susanne Sundfør again after working with her in the past.
"I just find that when I write a certain kind of song - perhaps erring more on the more melancholic side - I tend to write them with Susanne's voice in my head," he added.
Berge also noted that Sundfør has "that vibe" so he tends to do it most of the time.
Ahead of the release of the second installment of their three-part project, the musician said the album will have reoccuring themes of "love and loss, despair and reconciliation" and at the same time, they're paying homage to the artists who inspired them during their early years as a band.
For fans who have a "keen ear," many will notice that the second album has heavy references that they always incorporate into their music as a tribute, not a "rip-off."
"Profound Mysteries II" has hints of Kraftwerk and Depeche Mode as well as Italo Disco and 90s UK Rave.
