‘Berlin Nightmare’, the second single from SOPHIE’s upcoming posthumous album, has been released.

Last month, it was announced that the final album by the late experimental pop artist will be released on September 27th. The self-titled album was “close to completion when [SOPHIE] tragically died” in 2021, according to the press announcement, and has been “lovingly finalised by those who hold her closest.”

Now, a second single, ‘Berlin Nightmare,’ featuring Athens-based musician and vocalist Evita Manji, has been released.

“This album has always told the story of SOPHIE’s musical journey, a cacophony of skill and creative vision eclipsing time and genre,” SOPHIE’s family said in a press statement last month. “Her unique sound world moves at an emotional level, encouraging the listener to intuitively embrace the ever-evolving landscape of light and dark, soft and hard, to the end of self-love and joyful self-acceptance.”

The statement continued: “Emphasizing contradictions of sound and material, SOPHIE’s work supersedes the pure aural to create the dimension she dreamed of. Now, it holds another poignant meaning; it tells a life story, from mysterious unknown, through wild clublands, to euphoric immateriality.”

SOPHIE died in January 2021 in a tragic accident in Athens, Greece. Last year, the International Astronomical Union (IAU) officially named an asteroid after her.

The follow-up to her critically acclaimed 2018 debut ‘OIL OF EVERY PEARL’S UN-INSIDES,’ ‘SOPHIE’ was co-produced by her brother and long-time collaborator Benny Long. Released via Transgressive and Future Classic, you can pre-order it now in standard vinyl, CD, and digital versions, as well as “special exclusive” clear and black double-LP editions.
