{"product_id":"cindy-standard-candle-demos-signed-customised-copies","title":"Cindy - Standard Candle Demos (Signed, customised copies)","description":"\u003cp\u003eAching, beautifully rendered slow n doleful music from Karina Gill aka songwriter in Cindy. Each copy signed \u0026amp; customised by Karina.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBy now, if you’re not thoroughly, bodily enchanted by the songs and craft of Karina Gill I’m not sure there’s much hope left for you. Ah but don’t fret, there’s still time and Karina Gill is a true master of time. Gill’s songs open up time in the listener’s head, stretching out, unfurling, uncurling and unravelling slowly and at their own pace.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn these Standard Candle Demos, Gill gingerly strums her single coil axe with her voice, close to the mic as if trying not to disturb the universe, dancing a slow waltz on top of the music. It’s kind of crazy how music this minimal, played simply and without ornament is so full of character and ache: even the strumming patterns, the lightest of pressure on each string feels completely owned by Gill. The chords ring out, gently following each other dutifully and with charm, folding in on themselves coaxed forth by the songs. As Karina mentions on some of her hand-written notes on each copy on the back of the sleeves, these songs were written ad hoc on a Tascam 4-track, with borrowed instruments and a hell of a lot of implicit, in-built magic. Oh god damn it, you know this stuff is special. It was special the first time you heard it, the last time you heard it. The songs eaked out onto the ferric here sound very much like the first time you heard them. Almost apologetic in existence but defiantly beautiful. Special, special stuff.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sloth Mate","offers":[{"title":"LP - Signed and customised","offer_id":54020215734614,"sku":"MRM-05640","price":20.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1000\/6088\/9430\/files\/Screenshot-2026-05-28-at-11.54.13.png?v=1779965772","url":"https:\/\/monorailmusic.com\/products\/cindy-standard-candle-demos-signed-customised-copies","provider":"Monorail Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
