Immersion

Immersion are Malka Spigel and Colin Newman best known for their work with Minimal Compact and Wire. The project emerged in the early 1990s and has always prided itself on a diversity in approach and an ability to be both self-contained and a vehicle for collaboration. 1999’s 'Low Impact'  & 2018’s 'Sleepless'  cover very different aesthetics.

“Immersion manages to achieve a strong sense of human connection between these inseparable post-punk legends and other creative beings… head-on collision of experimental technique and poppist euphoria” The Quietus

“One of our records of the year. Total Swooner” Monorail Music

“They’ve created an extreme, something to be spoken of alongside the great albums of the century, and something that utterly holds its own with the sui generis work of Post Punk’s purest and most quality-minded act, Wire.”  Rock N Roll Globe
