By most metrics, Röyksopp's Profound Mysteries project is everything longtime fans could want: sleek Nordic synth pop, a grand return to the album format, and collaborations with left-field mavericks like Alison Goldfrapp, Jamie Irrepressible, Susanne Sundfør, and Astrid S, among others.

Röyksopp’s ‘Profound Mysteries III’ is sonically similar to its predecessors, but this is the most introspective release of the trilogy.

Weyes Blood despairs over climate change, Jimi Hendrix is the whirling dervish of rock, Dermot Kennedy probes his own narcissism
