about

Stationary Travels - "Euan Alexander Millar-McMeeken who makes music under the moniker of Glacis has been involved in numerous collaborations seeing release this year. All deserve to be shared, but for this modern classical foray, I highly recommend this album that just came out last month on the Oscarson label. His partner on Distances is musician & mixed-media artist Adrian Lane whose expressive, baroque-tinged bowed instruments prove an ideal complement for Glacis’ starkly melancholic piano lines."

De Subjectivisten (Netherlands) - "With the album Distances, released on the tasteful Oscarson label, two beautiful neoclassical worlds come together, namely those of Glacis and Adrian Lane. Glacis is the project of Scottish pianist/composer Euan Alexander Millar-McMeeken, who can also be heard in the indie rock band The Kays Lavelle and the dark, experimental pop duo Graveyard Tapes (along with Matthew Collings). His music is often characterized by an extremely melancholy mix of ambient, piano music and neoclassical. This is also in line with the works of the British painter, visual artist and multi-instrumentalist Adrian Lane, who often makes piano-driven neoclassical with ambient, interspersed with drones, folk and all kinds of experiments. Once he played in art rock, noise and punk band Breakneck Static and is nowadays also part of the duo That Faint Light (with Guido Lusetti). He has already released about 10 albums, which, in addition to electronics, often works with violin, guitar, psaltery and sampled instruments to shape his melancholy creations. All this flows together on this new album, resulting in wonderfully melancholic and imaginative compositions. In 9 pieces of over 47 minutes long, they manage to grip you firmly with their truly paralyzing splendour. Lovers of both artists, but also those of Richard Skelton, William Ryan Fritch, Library Tapes, From The Mouth Of The Sun and A Winged Victory For The Sullen can indulge themselves. What an incredibly beautiful masterpiece."

Clouds, Not Clocks / Rara Pluma

The delicate string playing, electronic coloring, and Kidd's piano are superb. In this moment I'm drawn towards thinking society as a whole is an epistemic mess. Gary Figueroa

Slow Meadow's S/T LP debut is a deftly layered recording. It presents a melancholic yet serene tonality. The tracks and their languid flow are wrapped in classical ambient colors. Of note is the gorgeous cello of Aimee Norris and the violin accompaniment of Andy Shelton, Joshua Ello, and Alia Gonzales. Nice introduction. Brilliant debut. Gary Figueroa

Costero

Slow Meadow's music feels like it captures the essence of a soul. Since the first time I came across the self titled debut some time in 2016, I've been repeatedly amazed at how many spacious layers of beauty and pain can be woven into a single song. Love this release and am happy to support such inspiring composition. 𝔅𝔩𝔦𝔰𝔰 ॐ 𝔄𝔟𝔶𝔰𝔰
