WORK BITCH (AZEALIA BANKS REMIX)

Esta Noche

September 2, 2014

While travelling through midwest America some time ago I stopped at a gasstation and bought a WWJD bracelet for $1.99 and insisted that it stood for ‘What Would Jens Do?’. I would look at it when I felt indecisive, think about what Jens really would do and then do the opposite of that. I thought that would be a good way to find some new paths in life, and to get away from the paths I kept taking that didn’t lead me anywhere good.

WWJD is a song about regrets, learning from your mistakes, and bettering yourself. I wrote it last year, recorded it quickly and felt it didn’t fit in with most of the other songs I was writing. Together with ‘What’s That Perfume That You Wear?’ and ‘I Remember’ they weren’t adhering to the rules I had set up for my next album but they were also too good to forget. So I weaved them in exclusively on this mixtape where they are stations on a longer journey, where loops and smaller fragments, ideas for songs and favourite songs by others swoosh by outside the window. Feel free to open that window and feel the breeze in your hair.

Yours truly
Jens Lekman

Girl Of My Dreams

Echoes Into Air is a journey through sound and spirit — a hip hop soul & deep house fusion that dissolves guilt, rewrites narratives, and celebrates love without weight. Conscious rap verses flow like poetry over hypnotic rhythms, carrying the energy of soulful choruses soaring with the warmth.

The project is about release — letting go of shame, embracing self-awareness, and finding freedom in vulnerability. With live-feel instrumentation, deep grooves, and glowing hooks, Echoes Into Air captures both the intimacy of reflection and the electricity of the dance floor.

This is not just music — it’s a declaration: every burden fades, every story can be rewritten, and love remains when the echoes disappear into air
