The song combines Nordic folk music, metal and cinematic sound and showcases a\u2002changing artistic direction for Amalie Bruun. Selected by Danish broadcaster DR, the\u2002entry makes Myrkur one of the more unique offerings round this year\u2019s national selection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A press release from Myrkur&#8217;s management revealed that &#8220;Touch My Love And Die&#8221; was recorded in Dolby Atmos with real musicians\u2014from cello, a girls\u2019 choir, and ancient folk instruments to drums captured with more than 40 microphones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With \u201c<strong>Touch My Love And Die<\/strong>,\u201d&nbsp;<strong>Myrkur<\/strong>&nbsp;presents an entry for Dansk Melodi Grand Prix that feels more like a ritual than a song. A piece that draws threads from Nordic mythology, human vulnerability, and cinematic grandeur, gathering them into a moment where darkness is not hidden, but allowed to speak.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cTouch My Love And Die\u201d is a dark, cinematic ballad in which Myrkur\u2019s various musical expressions merge into a new whole.

With \u201cTouch My Love And Die,\u201d Myrkur presents an entry for Dansk Melodi Grand Prix that feels more like a ritual than a song. A piece that draws threads from Nordic mythology, human vulnerability, and cinematic grandeur, gathering them into a moment where darkness is not hidden, but allowed to speak. \u201cTouch My Love And Die\u201d is a dark, cinematic ballad in which Myrkur\u2019s various musical expressions merge into a new whole. The sound incorporates elements from metal, Nordic folk music, and film scores, recorded in Dolby Atmos with real musicians\u2014from cello, a girls\u2019 choir, and ancient folk instruments to drums captured with more than 40 microphones. A physical, human soundscape in a time marked by speed, artificiality, and distance. Lyrically, the song moves within the supernatural and the gothic. A romance with multiple layers: a kiss of death, a warning, a spell. Love as both release and danger. For Myrkur, it is essential that the lyrics remain open and can be freely interpreted by the listener. The past year has been marked by major personal and artistic changes, and the song stands as a culmination of this movement. Recorded in Winter 2025 with Christopher Juul (Heilung), Myrkur describes \u201cTouch My Love And Die\u201d as a work into which \u201cheart, soul, blood, and tears\u201d have been poured\u2014both in song and performance\u2014something she hopes can exist as an antidote to a world dominated by AI and a throwaway culture. A reminder of humanity\u2019s roots, spirit, and resilience. With \u201cTouch My Love And Die,\u201d commissioned via Danish broadcaster DR, Myrkur enters Dansk Melodi Grand Prix 2026 with a contribution that does not seek to fit in, but to open the space. A song in which darkness is not concealed, but allowed to cast light. The winner of the Dansk Melodi Grand Prix will represent Denmark at Eurovision 2026 in Vienna, Austria in May.

From the emotionally charged metal expressions of&nbsp;<em>M<\/em>&nbsp;(2015) and&nbsp;<em>Mareridt&nbsp;<\/em>(2017) to&nbsp;<em>Folkesange<\/em>&nbsp;(2020) and&nbsp;<em>Spine<\/em>&nbsp;(2023), where she found grounding in ancient ballads, mythology, and shared narratives, Myrkur has consistently moved between the familiar and the untested\u2014between darkness and light, the brutal and the beautiful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In parallel, Myrkur has worked extensively with music for film, television, and theatre, including as a composer for&nbsp;Vikings: Valhalla&nbsp;on Netflix and as the creator of the soundtrack for&nbsp;Ragnarok&nbsp;at The Royal Danish Theatre. The cinematic and narrative dimensions have long been an integral part of her artistic language, and this is precisely what she now brings into Dansk Melodi Grand Prix.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity is-style-wide\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-keep-up-with-myrkur\">Keep Up With Myrkur<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/anotherside.cmail20.com\/t\/y-l-awukjy-drkihtllky-h\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">MYRKUR<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/anotherside.cmail20.com\/t\/y-l-awukjy-drkihtllky-k\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">INSTAGRAM<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/anotherside.cmail20.com\/t\/y-l-awukjy-drkihtllky-u\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">FACEBOOK<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":668,"featured_media":278419,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"single-two-column.php","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_kad_blocks_custom_css":"","_kad_blocks_head_custom_js":"","_kad_blocks_body_custom_js":"","_kad_blocks_footer_custom_js":"","_kad_post_transparent":"","_kad_post_title":"","_kad_post_layout":"","_kad_post_sidebar_id":"","_kad_post_content_style":"","_kad_post_vertical_padding":"","_kad_post_feature":"","_kad_post_feature_position":"","_kad_post_header":false,"_kad_post_footer":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[14262],"tags":[],"department":[13830],"class_list":["post-278418","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-doom-metal","department-metal"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v26.1 (Yoast SEO v26.8) -
