Yes, it's Wednesday, time for a special edition of Swimming In Sound with Malka & Colin.
This week as we are busy we have a 2025 special featuring tracks released this year that we have played. Not a chart or a “best of” and by no means exhaustive but each one giving a lie to the idea that all the best music was released in the distant past!
As a consequence no Andy this week but we do, as always, manage to include tracks by Wire (well Wir this week), Minimal Compact and “something from us”. And we not only continue working our way through the new Immersion album WTF?? but also we reprise a track from Immersion & SUSS’s Nanocluster Vol.3.
