FRUM’s album ‘Whirlpool’ opens with “Intro”, setting a calm and immersive tone that feels like dipping into a quiet, swirling current. It prepares you for the mix of electro-pop and raw emotion that follows. “Orbit With You” moves with a gentle push and pull, its looping rhythms and soft vocals giving a sense of connection and closeness. “Sun Aura” brightens the mood with shimmering synths and a steady beat that feels warm but restrained. The transition into “Wave” introduces a hint of tension beneath the smooth surface, reflecting the restless moments within the album’s themes. “Ride” deepens this feeling, carrying a darker, hypnotic rhythm that invites you to lose yourself in its steady pulse.
The heart of the album lies in the title track, “Whirlpool”, where swirling sounds and layered production capture the feeling of being pulled into something larger and uncontrollable. It’s both powerful and intimate, perfectly expressing the push and pull of life’s cycles. “Rise” then lifts the mood with brighter tones and a more upbeat rhythm, offering a sense of breakthrough and hope. “Choir” stands out with its layered voices, creating an emotional atmosphere that’s less structured and more about feeling, echoing the album’s deeper reflections on transformation and connection. “Cycle” continues this introspective mood, its soft and thoughtful sound tying back to the album’s recurring themes of renewal and change before the “Outro” gently closes the experience.
Throughout ‘Whirlpool’, FRUM blends experimental electro-pop with deeply personal emotion, reflecting her journey across Iceland and Norway and her dedication to featuring female producers. The album flows like its namesake—sometimes calm and steady, sometimes wild and swirling—mirroring the ups and downs of life itself. It’s an intimate listen that invites you to reflect, move, and lose yourself in its layers. With this album, FRUM shows a fresh, confident voice in the world of electronic music, offering something both personal and universal.
