About
After the Knife released 2013's Shaking the Habitual and went on an extensive tour captured by 2014's Shaken-Up Versions, the duo disbanded. Along with working on Fever Ray material, in 2016 Dreijer composed and produced the music for the play Vahák. In 2017, they issued the Fever Ray single "To the Moon and Back" shortly before the surprise release of October's full-length Plunge (the album received a physical release in February 2018). With a creative team including producers Johannes Berglund, Peder Mannerfelt, and Nídia, and violinist Sara Parkman, the album reflected on sexuality, sensuality, and what it means to be part of a family on its ambitious tracks. At that year's Swedish Grammys, Dreijer and the rest of the production team behind Plunge won the Producer of the Year award. The 2019 concert album Live at Troxy documented Plunge's elaborate live show, which featured Dreijer working with female and non-binary artists over the age of 40. That year, Fever Ray and Björk remixed each others' tracks, with Björk taking on Plunge's "This Country" and Fever Ray reworking Utopia's "Features Creatures" (the Knife also contributed a different remix of "Features Creatures" to the project). That December, Plunge Remix collected versions of the album's songs from artists such as Glasser, Paula Temple, Olof Dreijer, and Tami T.
