Isogenic depicts the man as an object of desire on new single and video 'You Enjoy'

The Danish art electro-pop band ISOGENIC announced their debut album Libertine last month, set for release on September 19, 2025. Alongside the announcement came the album’s first single Age, followed by an intimate live session version of the track. Today, ISOGENIC follows up with the album’s second single, the catchy and clubby You Enjoy, which—alongside a music video—dives head-on into a less commonly explored theme: the man as an object of desire.

Behind ISOGENIC is singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, and producer Emil Lundbak. While Lundbak’s starting point for Libertine is personal, it also contains reflections on how structural expectations help shape sexuality—not least in relation to masculine ideals. The man as a passively desired object remains so taboo that, for a heterosexual man, embracing a non-aggressive yet expressive sexual role can feel almost impossible. The fascination with this role drives many of the songs on the album, including You Enjoy.

Lundbak elaborates on ‘You Enjoy’:

"'You Enjoy' is a very special song to me, as it marks a big leap into a more explicit and honest lyrical universe. It’s been a significant and boundary-pushing liberation to dare write so directly about a desire and a longing to be desired—and, perhaps even more importantly, to have that desire communicated. Allowing myself to step into that vulnerable position, where there's room for others to desire me—undressing, both literally and emotionally—has been an unexpectedly powerful release."

After an EP and a series of singles, the Danish art electro-pop ensemble ISOGENIC can now announce their debut album Libertine, set for release this September. The album unites the synthetic and the analogue in an intimate, eclectic pop sound that thematically circles around especially sexual liberation and the journey toward it, from self-repression to self-recognition.

ISOGENIC took shape at the start of 2021 and released its debut EP Diffraction in the fall of 2021, followed by a string of concerts that made it clear to all present that the band was on the right path. Over the past couple of years, Lundbak and his two bandmates, Jonas Klintstrøm and Andreas Larsen, have produced a wealth of new material, now distilled into ISOGENIC’s debut album Libertine. The album’s ten tracks include the two 2024 singles Complex Pleasures and Iris, which heralded the more direct sound that defines the record, though still keeping the band's grandiose synth sound intact.

The album title Libertine refers to a person who lives without regard for society’s sexual norms and moral principles, seeking sexual pleasure free from guilt or constraint. With this figure as a kind of idealized archetype, the album revolves at its core around liberation—liberation from shame, guilt, and in particular, sexual shame. Lundbak explains:

“The album is an exploration of sexual roles, attraction, seduction, desire, and fear. For me personally, the songs reflect my own journey in understanding and expressing my sexuality: how it feels, how it looks, and how I can give it space in my life.”
