He emerged from relative obscurity and ░▐ ▌░ circulating homespun demos to international critical acclaim ░▐ ▌░ with his albums on the Secretly Canadian label throughout the ░▐ ▌░ mid-2000s. ░▐ ▌░ ░▐ ▌░ In addition to his more traditional records, Lekman explored ░▐ ▌░ a variety of conceptual releases, including his 2015 ░▐ ▌░ Postcards series, which found him writing and releasing a new ░▐ ▌░ song each week for a year, and 2019's Correspondence, a ░▐ ▌░ musical back-and-forth between Lekman and longtime friend and ░▐ ▌░ collaborator Annika Norlin. ░▐ ▌░ ░▐ ▌░ Oh YouÆre So Silent Jens enigmatically disappeared in 2011; ░▐ ▌░ Night Falls Over Kortedala followed suit in early 2022. ░▐ ▌░ LekmanÆs impulse for giving old music fresh life and context ░▐ ▌░ has led him to remake the records under new names, each ░▐ ▌░ delicately positioned in dialogue with the past û the same ░▐ ▌░ albums, just different. The Cherry Trees Are Still In Blossom ░▐ ▌░ and The Linden Trees Are Still In Blossom are a pair of ░▐ ▌░ lovingly and painstakingly assembled reduxes each keeping the ░▐ ▌░ same core tracklisting, spirit and source material as the ░▐ ▌░ originals, but blending brand new versions of some tracks, in ░▐ ▌░ part or in whole, together with many tracks left largely as ░▐ ▌░ they were. ░▐ ▌░ ░▐ ▌░ Both records are fleshed out with rare, previously ░▐ ▌░ unreleased, and even previously unfinished old songs, as well ░▐ ▌░ as other contemporaneous material such as cassette diaries. ░▐ ▌░ On The Cherry Trees, two of LekmanÆs best-loved early ░▐ ▌░ breakout singles are completely reimagined û æMaple LeavesÆ ░▐ ▌░ as a tender ballad burnished with warm strings; tragi-comic ░▐ ▌░ illegal taxi ride to oblivion æBlack CabÆ in two different ░▐ ▌░ versions, a handsome full band pop song and a gentle acoustic ░▐ ▌░ lullaby. The Linden Trees repackages all the true-life tales, ░▐ ▌░ magic, and mystery of Night Falls for a new age, yet in ░▐ ▌░ wholly familiar form, from the joyous æThe Opposite of ░▐ ▌░ HallelujahÆ to hilariously uplifting missive æA Postcard to ░▐ ▌░ NinaÆ and open-hearted love-song æYour Arms Around MeÆ. ░▐ ▌░ ░▐ ▌░ Taken together, the new albums form a sort of belated ░▐ ▌░ farewell to LekmanÆs formative days as a bedroom Scott ░▐ ▌░ Walker, panning for sample gold in stacks of vintage vinyl. ░▐ ▌░ Albeit not a farewell to the original albums themselves, ░▐ ▌░ which will live on in fansÆ record collections, and perhaps ░▐ ▌░ illicit corners of the internet. Spread to the wind. ░▐ ▌░ ░▐ ▌░ ░▐ ▌░ ▄▄▄┌─────────────┐▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄ ░▐ ▌░ ▒▒▒│ marr │▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒ ░▐ ▌░ └─────────────┘ ░▐ ▌░ ░▐ ▌░ indie . pop . rock . shoegaze . dream . jangle . twee ░▐ ▌░ chamber . noise . c-86 . college . goth . post rock ░▐ ▌░ kraut . post punk . darkwave . alternative . lo-fi ░▐ ▌░ country . americana . folk . folk/rock . progressive rock ░▐ ▌░ psychedelic rock . stoner . doom . sludge . desert . fuzz ░▐ ▌░ grunge . metal . heavy metal . hair metal . hard rock ░▐ ▌░ drone . aor . classic rock . southern rock . west coast ░▐ ▌░ hardcore . punk rock . garage . library . soundtrack ░▐ ▌░ avantgarde . classical . electronic . ambient . new wave ░▐ ▌░ synthpop . leftfield . experimental ░▐ ▌░ ░▐ ▌░ ░▐ ░▌░ ░ █ █ ░ ░▐░ ▌░ ▓▓█ █▓▓ ░▐ ▌░ ░█ █░ ░▐ ▌░ █ ░ ▒ ░ ░ ▒ ░ █ ░▐ ░ ▌░██ ░ ▒█████░ ░█████▒ ░ ██░▐ ░ ▒ ░ ▌░█ ░ ███▓ ▓██ ▒ ▒ ██▓ ▓███ ░ █░▐ ░ ▒ ░██ ▌█▓ ████ █▒ ▒█ ████ ▓░▐ ██░ ░██████░ ███ █ █ ███ ░██████░ ██████ ███ █ █ ███ ██████ ▒███ ███▒ ██ █ █ ██ ▒███ ███▒ ████ ████████ ▒ █ █ ▒ ████████ ████ ████░ ███████░ ░░ █ █ ░░ ░███████ ░████ █████░ ████▒ ▒ ▓█ █▒ ▒█ █▓ ▒ ▒████ ░█████ █████░ ██████████ ███ █ █ ███ ██████████ ░█████ ▒██████ ░ ███████▒ ████▒▒█ █▒▒████ ▒███████ ░ ██████▒ ░ ███░ ███ ░ * █▓▓ ▓▓ ▓▓█ * ░ ███ ░███ ░ █░ ███ █░ *** * * █▒█▒▒██████▒▒█▒█ * * *** ░█ ███ ░█ ████ ██ * ████████ ████████ * ██ ████ ████████ * *** ░ ░██████ ██████░ ░ *** * ████████ █████ ** ░ ████ ▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓ ████ ░ ** █████ ▒█████████████▒▒ ░░ ░░ ▒▒█████████████▒ ░▓██████████▒ ░░ ░░ ▒██████████▓░ ▒█████ ░░ ░░ █████▒ ███ ███ ██ ██ ▒█ █▒ https://www.deezer.com/us/album/300442327
