Description
Whirlpool
Life moves in cycles. The tides rise and fall. Seasons change. Feelings return. With Whirlpool, FRUM dives deep into the ever-spinning motions of life and the universe, capturing them in sound. The album is an immersive and visionary piece that blends experimental electro-pop with raw emotion, inviting listeners on a journey through transformation, connection, and renewal.
The Faroese artist, Jenný Kragesteen, has spent years crafting Whirlpool, wanting to have female producers represented on the album—a conscious decision to support and amplify female voices in music production.a conscious decision to support and amplify female voices in music production.a conscious decision to support and amplify female voices in music production., shaping it through personal experiences and creative exploration. Across eight songs, framed by an intro and an outro, she balances delicate introspection with pulsating rhythms, mirroring the push and pull of existence. The result is an album that feels both deeply intimate and expansively universal.
Earlier this year, FRUM introduced the world to the sonic universe of Whirlpool through the singles Rise, Whirlpool, and Cycle. More music is on the horizon in 2025, as she continues to evolve and push boundaries within her distinct musical realm.
The past four years have taken FRUM from the dramatic landscapes of Iceland (Akureyri) to the creative pulse of Norway (Bergen), where she has written and produced new music. These surroundings have infused her sound with a cinematic quality—layered, atmospheric, and deeply connected to nature and movement.
Since the start of her career in 2016, FRUM has always sought to reach beyond borders. In 2017, she toured China, performing for audiences far from home. She has since taken the stage at Reeperbahn Festival, opened for Morcheeba, and had her music featured in Netflix productions and H&M stores worldwide. Each of these experiences has shaped her artistic voice, fueling the creation of Whirlpool.
With this release, FRUM steps into a new era—one that is boundless and reflective, spinning forward while remaining rooted in emotion and storytelling. Whirlpool is more than an album; it’s an experience, an invitation to drift, dance, and dive deep into the cycles that shape us all.
The digital album will be released on May 23rd, with physical formats to follow, ensuring that its world reaches listeners wherever they are.
