Remaining consistent throughout, is Idehen’s distinct spoken-word delivery, affirmative, yet reassuring, his vocality invoking sincerity and trust in his narrative.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSpeaking 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.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e“Honest and celebratory, compassionate and full of goodwill... A beautiful selection of songs. And a selection of songs everyone should find time in their lives for.” - Louder Than War\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e“‘Learn To Swim’ offers a captivating soundscape that blends Idehens distinctive spoken word poetry, soulful singing, and electronic beats” - Gigwise\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTracklisting\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDon’t You Give Up On Me\n\u003cbr\u003eThis World’s A Madness\n\u003cbr\u003eBest King Of Lost\n\u003cbr\u003eWhat We’re Doing Tonight\n\u003cbr\u003eLearn To Swim, Pt. 2\n\u003cbr\u003eLast Time\n\u003cbr\u003eUnfold\n\u003cbr\u003eEnd Of The Line\n\u003cbr\u003eI Got You Every Step Of\n\u003cbr\u003eThe Way (For Leone Ross)\n\u003cbr\u003eAll The Same\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Capsule Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58862689386877,"sku":"HVNLP236","price":23.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0660\/3826\/8152\/files\/6aba6626965223afed74c528.jpg?v=1791459086","url":"https:\/\/capsulerecords.co.uk\/products\/release-date-30-10-26-learn-to-swim-a-mixtape","provider":"Capsule Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
