Afenginn - Movements I
Album artwork & design of cover and labels
MOVEMENTS I is the eighth album by Afenginn - a cinematic, rhythm-driven work in six parts.
The album is part of a trilogy unfolding over three years.
The first volume - Movements I - drops on September 19th, 2025.
Ahead of Movements I, four singles have been released. Each single will be followed by a Close-Up Version - a reimagined version of the tracks.
The first single is AELVA. The single edit opens with a 11/8 flow, followed up by a heartbeat-like pulse and layered cello and violin, before moving into a choral-like theme.
Along the single artwork, there’s also an accompanying canvas for Spotify.

Taktstok is the second single from the upcoming Movements I. It has muscle, dance, pathos, and bombast, with Nordic flair - a bit like salmiak-infused salty liquorice on a bed of raspberry ice cream.

Third single from Movements I is Undertryk.
Built on a hypnotic pizzicato groove, it slowly gathers its layers: Greek-style clarinet, African percussion, and wordless vocals. Sitting in the final spot on the A-side, it’s intimate, textured, and - hopefully - quietly addictive.

Emberlin is the fourth and final single. A glowing electronic pattern sets the foundation, a slow-building instrumental led by an aching violin melody and wrapped in swelling, textured layers.
