Now she’s back with “Dream Q”, a gorgeous new track that finds her exploring the more delicate side of electronic music. Her unmistakable voice floats over shimmering synths and ethereal melodies, punctuated by delicate harpsichord notes, while the restless, almost mechanical percussion brings a welcome contrast. The whole thing gradually unfolds, blossoming into something even more beautiful in its second half. Roby wrote and recorded most of the song during a 2024 residency at Canada’s National Music Centre, where she also began working on her third album.

The single comes with an equally elegant video directed by Tess Roby herself, filmed alongside Hugo Bernier and edited by Trevor Blumas of E-Prime. Shot along the striking white cliffs of southern England, the cinematic clip follows her wandering through an almost otherworldly landscape. Watch and support below.

The track is a gorgeous, slow-moving piece that seems to drift in and out of focus. Acoustic guitars, delicate strings and soft drums come together around vocals that almost blend into the instrumentation. Rather than sticking to a traditional song structure, Yvy Veins let the different layers unfold naturally, creating something that feels intimate yet slightly out of reach. These are definitely not songs or melodies that reveal all their charms straight away, but each listen brings something new to discover.

Lyrically, “Observer” deals with emotional distance and that strange point when words and feelings begin to lose their meaning. What we feel and what others say eventually seem to blur into the same thing, leaving us questioning whether there’s any point in trying to make sense of it all. There’s a certain resignation in the lyrics, but also something strangely comforting about accepting that not everything needs an explanation.

The song’s blurry, almost weightless atmosphere should appeal to fans of the Copenhagen experimental pop scene, as well as anyone with a soft spot for Dean Blunt‘s more elusive indie pop moments. The upcoming album was actually mastered by Emil Thomsen, who has previously worked with artists including Smerz, ML Buch, Fine, The Crying Nudes and Mica Levi.

Yvy Veins‘s “Observer” also somes with a self-made video, that you watch below.

“end scene” goes straight for the Y2K melodrama. Layered harmonies, emo pop melodies, dramatic strings and video game inspired textures give the track the feeling of a closing sequence from some lost early 2000s movie or console game. DJ Suzy has specifically pointed to Super Mario Galaxy as part of its sonic DNA, while the lyrics imagine a failed relationship as a film whose script has gone off course. “In ‘end scene’, I’m looking back on a relationship as if it were a movie. I wrote a script for how I wanted the relationship to unfold, but my lover didn’t follow it the way I had imagined,” she explains. By the outro, she is watching the credits roll on the life they shared, with all the drama pushed right to the surface. “I love how the dramatic chords and strings play together with the emo-pop melodies, i’m really happy how it turned out.”
