Today KÁRYYN shares the follow-up track to “COLLAPSE PHASE” with “END TO KNOWING YOU,” taken from her forthcoming 10-track album PHYSICS UNIVERSAL LOVE LANGUAGE (PULL), out May 29 via Mute. The track is paired with the official video directed by Jenna Marsh, and produced by Black Dog Films.

The latest single “END TO KNOWING YOU” is a sensual elegy straddling the edge between toxic and unrelenting love. It exists in the space between desire and detachment, where bodies ache to merge but timelines fracture on impact. This is not a love song, but a spiritual confession, a map of magnetism, gravitational obsession, telepathy, and spiritual polarity. The track reflects psychic recursion, ecstatic polarity and erotic grief, exploring love that cannot be lived but will not dissolve. As the laws of energetics go, nothing truly ends, it only transforms. Like a mantra, she sings: “I can let it go, I can let it go… but there is no end to knowing you.” The video was conceived by KÁRYYN and directed by Jenna Marsh - whose work includes collaborations with Charli XCX and Eartheater - and was produced by Black Dog Films, part of Ridley Scott’s production company. Choreography is by Supple Nam and the video features dancer Danni Spooner, resulting in a bold, immersive and highly expressive performance. PHYSICS UNIVERSAL LOVE LANGUAGE (PULL) is the latest from Syrian-Armenian-American singer and producer, KÁRYYN. The new album is a body of work distilled from years of lived exploration into existence, intimacy, and time, where sound becomes the structure through which truth is communicated. KÁRYYN’s voice is the gravitational center, carrying both weight and fragility as it shapes the record’s sonic world. Describing her new album “not as inquiry but as conclusion rendered in sound,” PHYSICS UNIVERSAL LOVE LANGUAGE (PULL) maps collapse and reformation through the narrative themes and structural truths of compassion, clarity, and courage. Grounded in physics as the universal language shaping time and space, she asserts that this same language governs inner spiritual coherence, love, and connection. “PHYSICS UNIVERSAL LOVE LANGUAGE (PULL) is about the forces that hold us, rearrange us, and pull us back together,” she says. “It’s a framework for understanding my relationship with Self. This record is the sound of my human revolution.” The first single, “COLLAPSE PHASE,” drew widespread acclaim across the media, with KÁRYYN appearing on the cover of MusicTech Magazine and being highlighted by Women Moving The Needle alongside Lola Young, as well as receiving support from Pitchfork, The Line of Best Fit and others. Built on the tension between sustain and decay, the track unfolds like energy held far beyond its limit, no longer seeking release, but asserting it. It captures the moment the final illusion collapses, revealing clarity rather than chaos. As KÁRYYN explains, “COLLAPSE PHASE is the sonic threshold of confrontation and acceptance. It’s the sound of outdated systems breaking down—relational, emotional, foundational—no longer serving the universal truth that has arrived. It’s the moment I become the force itself, drawing everything obsolete to its end so something true can exist.” Driven by gravitational rhythms, suspended vocal lines, and a sense of sovereign, deliberate rupture, the single introduces the album’s emotional stakes as a point of arrival, where agency is fully claimed and transformation is no longer a process, but a fact. PHYSICS UNIVERSAL LOVE LANGUAGE (PULL) was executive produced by KÁRYYN and James Ford and co-produced by Hudson Mohawke, with additional production by Jacques Greene, Steve Nalepa, Luca Perry, and Duncan Fuller. String arrangement & performances by Raven Bush, alongside qanun performances by the internationally acclaimed Syrian qanun player, Maya Youssef. The album was mixed by Marta Salogni and mastered by Joker. Built from voice, strings, modular synths and gravitational beats tuned to 432Hz, the record incorporates string arrangements informed by Armenian and Middle Eastern musical traditions, woven quietly into rhythm and melody as the record spans the intimate and the expansive. At its heart, PHYSICS UNIVERSAL LOVE LANGUAGE (PULL) is a declaration of courage, connection and renewal; the willingness to confront, collapse, feel and rise. “I went hunting for dark matter”, KÁRYYN says, “and instead I found brilliance, light, and potential.”
