The EP Series, Volume 1: Acoustic Covers

In 2011–2013, Christensen recorded himself singing and playing guitar, using the built-in microphone and webcam of his laptop. These are known as the "Low Key/Late Night-sessions",[3] referring to the low audio and video quality of the videos, and the time of recording, which was usually in the small hours of the night. The recordings were predominantly of Christensen's own material (released and unreleased), but also included a few cover versions, including "How Am I Supposed to Live Without You".[4]

Inspired by these performances, Christensen recorded six cover songs in a very minimalistic and intimate way, featuring only Christensen singing and playing acoustic guitar.[3] The last song is a duet with Irish singer-songwriter Gemma Hayes.[3]

The EP received few reviews, but the reviews that were written were moderately positive. One reviewer puts it as, "There is truly a 'campfire-deluxe' atmosphere over these takes on songs, that don't whip the carpet out from under the listener, but that surely do not irritate."[1] Another review concludes with the words: "This EP is not a major release, but it is exactly what the title suggests. A nice little interlude, recorded without the heavy pressure of expectations that usually surrounds a Tim Christensen release."[5]
