In the autumn of 2021, it is time for Magnus Josefsson to present his debut album. After a number of self-released singles and a mixtape for Anette Records, a path has been pointed out and Magnus has taken a big step forward. The first single 'The Map' is the album's starting point and key track. “The song flowed out of me beyond thoughts and understanding. With guitar, amplifier, pedals and a computer. It became a method to move forward. It started as a journey of discovery inside me but developed into a compass for the rest of the album. ”
The music is meditative and hypnotic with a guitar that, like driftwood, moves forward to a simple rhythm while it occasionally collects notes from other instruments that flow with it. With him, Magnus has several famous friends and acquaintances he met along the way. Guests on ‘The Map’ are none other than Magnus Olsson (Melissa Horn) on drums, Craig Gannon (The Smiths!) On mellotron and Christoffer Gunrup (The Amazing) on bass. The track was mastered by Simon Scott (Slowdive).
‘The Map’ is the first release from Magnus’ new label The Mirror Factory, which revolves around a disused mirror factory in Fröseke that has become home to Magnus and his friends' music recordings.
