It’s his second studio album for \u003cstrong\u003eSonic Cathedral\u003c\/strong\u003e and a sequel of sorts to 2022’s acclaimed \u003cem\u003eLet’s Emerge!\u003c\/em\u003e. The title is a light-hearted acknowledgment that the album picks up exactly where the last one ended with ‘\u003cem\u003eWarmth Of The Sun\u003c\/em\u003e’, with opener ‘\u003cem\u003eEuphoria\u003c\/em\u003e’ mixing blissed-out Balearica with guitars by labelmate (and \u003cstrong\u003eRide\u003c\/strong\u003e \/ \u003cstrong\u003eOasis\u003c\/strong\u003e member) \u003cstrong\u003eAndy Bell\u003c\/strong\u003e. “I definitely wanted it to feel like a direct continuation from the previous one,” explains Pye Corner Audio, aka \u003cstrong\u003eMartin Jenkins\u003c\/strong\u003e. “I wanted the whole record to be awash with distortion and saturation, but not in a blown-out guitar amp kind of way.” He’s right: everything here feels a lot bigger, bolder and acid bright. “The musical influences are all the usual suspects – Stereolab, Spacemen 3, Harmonia, Cluster, Suicide,” he reveals. “But I think that this album wears them in a much more direct way.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSeveral songs feature vocals, and not all by Martin himself – ‘\u003cem\u003eThe Breath Of Now\u003c\/em\u003e’ has a stunning, spoken word monologue by Scottish crime writer \u003cstrong\u003eIan Rankin\u003c\/strong\u003e. The resulting dystopian nightmare is the first time that clouds of darkness obscure the sunshine, but, as Martin says, “you need the shade to appreciate the sun”. “If there’s a theme that runs throughout then it’s optimism, even in these darkened days. The sun will continue to rise… even if there’s no one around to see it.”\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sonic Cathedral","offers":[{"title":"CD","offer_id":57661428138329,"sku":"SDZ-28794","price":13.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0588\/3455\/0945\/files\/Pye_Corner_Audio_-_More_Songs_About_The_Sun_-_CD_-_2026.jpg?v=1774524857","url":"https:\/\/spindizzyrecords.com\/products\/pye-corner-audio-more-songs-about-the-sun-cd","provider":"Spindizzy Dublin","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
