NTS Radio: Underwater Special
London’s been so hot and sweaty lately all we wanna do is chill in a pool. Playing underwater songs on the radio is the next best thing, so Sam helped me assemble an unfathomable wave of the splooshiest sounds out there, from Jürgen Müller’s tidally hypnotic Science of the Sea to Koji Kondo’s midi-rendered ocean caverns, before wading through the fjords of Swim Platførm and the chlorinated rhetoric of Sebastian Palomar, and finally soaring high like a seabird.
