Nordvargr Announces the Release of Resignation 4, the Fourth Installment in the Resignation Series

Swedish dark ambient and experimental artist Nordvargr (Henrik Nordvargr Björkk) is set to release the highly anticipated Resignation 4, continuing his sonic journey through rhythmic, atmospheric, and melancholic soundscapes. Building on the foundation laid by the Resignation trilogy, Resignation 4 expands the project’s signature blend of techno-inspired beats, dark ambient textures, and hypnotic soundscapes.

A Continuation of Sonic Exploration

Resignation 4 picks up where the acclaimed 2022 Resignation box set left off, offering a deeper dive into Nordvargr’s evolving sound. The album maintains one foot firmly in the techno scene, while also embracing moments of eerie calm and reflective melancholy. It is an album where rhythmic pulses and deep atmospherics converge, presenting a sound that is at once mesmerizing and abrasive, pushing the boundaries of electronic music.
This latest chapter sees Nordvargr taking his unique grasp of genre fusion even further, blending ambient melancholia with hard-edged, rhythmic elements. Fans of both experimental electronics and the fringes of techno will find Resignation 4 to be a captivating continuation of his visionary work.

Origins and Evolution of the Resignation Series

The Resignation project began in 2008 as an exploration of rhythmic, repetitive music paired with dark ambient soundscapes. It was born from a collaboration between Nordvargr and Nils Ekholm, merging techno-inspired beats with samples from old 78 RPM records. The first album in the series was described as “techno, if invented in the late 1800s,” drawing inspiration from the ill-fated 1897 North Pole expedition by S.A. Andrée.
Over the years, the project has grown, with each album taking a distinct direction—ranging from dubby techno atmospheres to harsher, noisier electronic soundscapes—culminating in the haunting, cinematic experience that is Resignation 4. Along the way, the project has evolved from its early experimental roots into a genre-defying force, standing at the crossroads of ambient, techno, and industrial music.

A Look Back at the Trilogy

The Resignation trilogy was re-released in 2022 as a deluxe box set, remastered with unique and exclusive material, including previously unheard demo recordings and bonus tracks. This set offered listeners a complete exploration of the project’s evolution, from the early rhythmic ambient experiments to the harder, more distorted sounds of later volumes. Note that the quickly sold out 3CD has now been repressed.
Tracks like Totem Visitations, originally composed for a Polish film soundtrack, showcased Nordvargr’s ability to craft immersive sonic environments that complement the darker edges of film and narrative.

Looking Forward: Resignation 4

With Resignation 4, Nordvargr continues to refine his signature style, exploring new territories of sound and emotion. This album promises to be a highlight of his prolific career, offering a bold and dynamic listening experience for fans of experimental and rhythmic electronic music.

Release Formats and Artwork

The album will be available in multiple formats:

• Vinyl: Edition of 300 copies. 100 Special Edition on Marbled Brown & Black vinyl and 200 copies on Black vinyl. Printed Innersleeve and matte lamination. 9 Tracks. Running Time 39:57 EAN: 3770033798171

• CD: Edition of 300 copies in 4 panel Digipak, matte lamination. 9 Tracks. Running Time 39:57 EAN: 770033798164

The stunning album artwork and photography are created by Sandrine Pelletier, capturing the stark, otherworldly aesthetic of the Resignation series.

Resignation 4 continues Nordvargr’s exploration of the balance between beauty and brutality, inviting listeners to immerse themselves in a world where atmospheric depth meets rhythmic intensity.

Nordvargr - Silent Command Echo - Excerpt

Nordvargr - Our Lord Of The Abyss (Part One) - Excerpt

(Verse 1 – Slow, echoing synths with glitchy distortions, like a broken music box unraveling)
Have you ever found your favorite toy,
Broken, old, cracked in the dim light's ploy?
Just got it handed in a waking dream,
Bleeding over memories, tearing at the seam.
Fractured, spilling inks in chaotic swirl,
Mixing madness in my brain, deleting the girl.
A mirror reflective, shattered on the ground,
Who was I supposed to be? Lost, never found.
(Chorus – Building to a haunting whisper-scream, layered vocals fading into static)
I loved me, but I can't remember the start,
A me I even began with, torn apart.
Traumacore rip-up, dolls on the floor,
Needles and knives in play-fake gore.
Play-Doh house, basement door locked tight,
Rusted bolts to depths unknown, endless night.
Halls never walked, cries of a million screams,
Rush out when time breaks, light stands still in dreams.
We are the children of fractured mirrors,
Salvia spirits in the dark, paying with fears.
(Verse 2 – Pulsing bass with reversed audio samples, evoking buried memories)
Will I ever be, feel alive again?
Smile like before, or is this the end?
Will I spring to life today, become someone new,
I thought I could never be, breaking through?
Traumacore, trauma scorn, blood runs cold,
Wish I was never born, never got this old.
Even though shadows push to devour the light,
I need your heart to keep fighting the night.
(Bridge – Minimalist piano with rising tension, glitch effects cracking like glass)
In the darkness we pay, while light appears so bright,
Children of the fracture, lost in endless fight.
Memories bleed, inks mix in the void,
Who am I now? Self destroyed.
(Outro – Fading into ambient noise, whispers overlapping)
Traumacore echoes, dolls and toys strewn,
Mirrors reflective, under a blood moon.
Will I ever be... alive... smile... spring to life...
Traumacore, devour the strife.
