Pickup available at Dawson Street
Usually ready within 24-48 hours - Pre-order items available on day of release.
'Learn To Swim' takes shape around 10 individually characterised tracks, from the whirring beat and gospel undertones of “Don’t You Give Up On Me”, to the playful, percussion-layered offering of “Best Kind Of Lost”, the project displays the innate musicality and natural versatility of Joshua Idehen. Remaining consistent throughout, is Idehen’s distinct spoken-word delivery, affirmative, yet reassuring, his vocality invoking sincerity and trust in his narrative.
Speaking on the mixtape, Idehen explains:
“Learn to Swim' is collection of songs written and recorded in the middle months of 2021, around the same time, I started learning to swim. I’d convinced myself my bones were too dense to float, and actually, they are, so I'd given up for decades, until an old Swedish teacher told me, “So you’re not a jellyfish, you're a shark, keep moving or die". Still can't float, but I'm still learning.”
'Learn To Swim' Mixtape was released digitally in April 2023.
100 vinyl were pressed and are now incredibly rare to find.
