" data-original-title="" title="">Magnus Granberg's first album on Another Timbre, Ist Gefallen In Den Schnee, was released in 2012, it was credited to Skogen, the nine-(or seven-or ten-) member ensemble in which he played piano (prepared or not) and/or clarinet. It was not until his fifth release on the label, How Deep is the Ocean, How High is the Sky (2015) that Granberg was credited by name. As those album titles suggest, Granberg has often been inspired by other composers' works, although he has never plagiarized others' work.

In recent years, Granberg has increasingly developed the habit of recording his compositions with different ensembles often playing completely different instruments. So, in April and November 2019, in Connecticut and Tokyo respectively, for two separate albums on the Japanese Mmeena label, he recorded two versions of his composition "Come Down to Earth Where Sorrow Dwelleth," the first played by the American violin-cello-guitar-vibes quartet Ordinary Affects plus Granberg himself on prepared piano, the second by a Japanese trio playing sho, 20-string koto and no-input mixing board again plus Granberg on prepared piano. Both versions were highly praised on release. In October 2020 in Stockholm, Granberg recorded a quartet version of "How Lonely Sits the City," played on cello, harp, prepared piano and violin, for Mmeena and, in June 2021, also in Stockholm, he recorded a version of the same piece played by a seven-member Skogen, for Another Timbre.

All of that is relevant to the album Holde Tr?me, kehret wieder! (sweet dreams return), a double CD with the first disc featuring a quartet version of the title piece played by the quartet Nattens inbrott, including violin, double bass, percussion, and Granberg on prepared piano, the second disc a septet version played by a seven-member Skogen including Granberg; both versions were recorded at Atlantis in Stockholm in November 2021.
