Maple Leaves

Jens Lekman

Dusty vinyl samples and a rich baritone voice collide in this autumn-hued collection of witty, sample-heavy indie pop stories.

It is like a 1960s orchestral pop record found in a thrift store and lovingly reconstructed in a Swedish bedroom.

A charmingly awkward and nostalgic embrace of romantic misunderstandings set against lush, dusty samples.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The way the title track builds from a simple, crackling loop into a lush, string-laden pop epiphany.
The deadpan delivery of the lyric about mistaking 'make believe' for 'maple leaves' that anchors the EP's emotional core.
The sudden, warm swell of orchestral samples that makes a bedroom recording feel like a lost 1960s studio session.
