Perfume Genius has broken down ‘Slip Away’, taken from most recent album ‘No Shape’.
Appearing on the Song Exploder podcast, Mike Hadreas played the original demo version of the track, while producer Blake Mills and engineer Shawn Everett explained how they added different layers.
“This song could easily have gone full-on band rock and roll,” Hadreas explains. “I wanted all of it to be prepared in a more subversive way.”
