Solo work

Jensen’s debut album For This From That Will Be Filled was released in 2018. Pitchfork named it one of the best experimental albums of 2018.[1] Writing about this album, Self-Titled characterized Jensen's music as “incredibly powerful neo-classical pieces that seem to come straight from another astral plane."[2]

Her second album, The experience of repetition as death, was released on FatCat Records in April 2020. Naming it among the top 50 albums of 2020, NPR remarked "This collection of requiems for a dying mother ranks among the great ambient albums of the 21st century."[3] The New Yorker described it as an album of 'near-supernatural potency.'[4]

In October 2022, Jensen released her third album, Esthesis, which NPR ranked among the Best Experimental Albums of the Year.[5]

Jensen's fourth and most recent album is In holiday clothing, out of the great darkness. Released in October 2025, the album made NPR's best albums of 2025 list.[6] Tom Huizenga described the album as a "blanket of string sound that caresses, mesmerizes, sings and swirls with subtle help from loops, delays and octave shifters."[6] Jensen, who is featured on My Chemical Romance's 2025 and 2026 tours[7], plays pieces from this album during the emo band's concerts at stadiums throughout North America, South America, Asia and Europe.[8]

Film work

Jensen has scored a number of film and television projects including Amber Sealey's No Man of God starring Elijah Wood, which premiered at the 2021 Tribeca Film Festival and Takeshi Fukunaga's Ainu Mosir, which premiered at the 2020 Tribeca Film Festival.

Jensen was nominated for an Ariel Award for Best Original Music by the Mexican Academy of Cinematographic Arts and Science for her score for the Fernanda Valadez film Sin Señas Particulares (Identifying Features), which won an award at the 2020 Sundance Film Festival.[9] Jensen also scored Caught in the Web: The Murders Behind Zona Divas (2024), a four-part Netflix documentary on femicide in Mexico and A Want in Her, a documentary film by Myrid Carten which premiered at International Documentary Film Festival Amsterdam (IDFA) in 2024 and won the British Independent Film Award Best Feature Documentary.[10]
