Trentemøller will release a new album on In My Room in September. Featuring 10 tracks, Dreamweaver combines elements of shoegaze, dark wave, rock, and somber, introspective takes on electronic dream pop, but “in a considerably more psychedelic manner” than the Danisn producer’s previous albums, we’re told.
