The songs are rounded out with live drums and minimal synthesisers with all the mistakes kept in for maximum human feel and emotion. The album title is derived from the sultry heat in Texas which causes everything and everyone to slow down. While writing \u003ci\u003eSlow Air,\u003c\/i\u003e Still Corners found inspiration in the change of leaving England for the States and traveling around the massive expanse that is North America from the deserts of Texas and Arizona to the beaches of California and mountainous regions of the north east New York. Recorded in a new studio designed by Greg Hughes in Austin, TX, Still Corners focused on a recording process that was as fluid and minimal as possible. Using a variety of microphones both old and new the band recorded and mixed this new set of songs in three months. Keeping everything fresh and not over-thinking moved the album to the finish line faster than any album Still Corners had written and recorded before. Joe Laporta put the finishing touches on at Sterling Sound in NYC. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Wrecking Light Records","offers":[{"title":"LP","offer_id":50421296202059,"sku":"1040461","price":24.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"CD","offer_id":50421296628043,"sku":"1040460","price":12.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/f124afaa-07a9-437a-a367-e6311e40b225_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1726756786"},{"product_id":"creatures-of-an-hour","title":"Creatures Of An Hour","description":"\u003cp\u003e'creatures of an hour', the debut full-length by still corners, glows with the delicate vocals of singer tessa murray and the atmospheric, cinematic influences of songwriter greg hughes. still corners capture both the youthful tone of french new wave and the unease of italian horror, from the projections (created by band member leon dufficy) that feature heavily in their live performances, to the free-floating grace of 'creatures of an hour'. \"there're just certain things in certain movies, like older horror movies and other foreign films, that you see sometimes. they just have a certain vibe and atmosphere,\" says hughes. \"all these little bits, these tiny moments. that's what i was trying to go back to. to bottle that up and put it into a song.\" recorded at hughes' own studio in greenwich, the devil is truly in the details of 'creatures of an hour'. fusing whispered intimacy to the emotional expansiveness of composer ennio morricone, hughes crafts deceptively simple songs that linger like half-remembered dreams. lead single 'cuckoo' shines in its simplicity, a single drumbeat, ghostly guitar, and distant organ highlighting murray's haunting soprano as she asks, \"i'd like to read your mind \/ can you read mine?\" \"it's about confusion,\" explains hughes. \"it's about being confused. am i going crazy? does this person like me? what's happening? that's the vibe of the whole record really.\" for the time being, hughes is happy to maintain still corners' musical mystery. \"i don't like to talk too much on decoding the songs. it takes the mystery away,\" he says. reviewers like gorilla vs. bear, pitchfork and drowned in sound however have proven more than happy to sing the praises of the pop beauty of still corners. so grab some popcorn and stick around - for still corners this is just act one.\n\nrough trade east in-store - still corners - tuesday 11th october, 7pm\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"No Label","offers":[{"title":"LP","offer_id":50448476537163,"sku":"343462","price":24.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"CD","offer_id":50448477356363,"sku":"343461","price":9.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/72d4ce06-818d-480c-a4bc-0514ff4e3aec_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1727092240"},{"product_id":"strange-pleasures-3","title":"Strange Pleasures","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn celebration of \u003ci\u003eStrange Pleasures\u003c\/i\u003e turning 10, Still Corners release a very special remastered 10-year anniversary edition.
