As far as I know, Immersion is Colin Newman's (ex-Wire) techno project. In a way similar to all the "Drill" versions from a few years back, Newman seems to be interested-in/obsessed-by the process of what happens to a piece of music when you repeatedly re-do it, hand it off to different remixers, etc. Good stuff, anyway. -- CiM said:

It was probably the line "you don't have to be fake and phony" which would make it the 2nd track on Green Velvet's _Portamento Tracks_ EP on Relief. -- Paul Rafanello asked -

Um, I've got it and... ehh... "Renegade Snares" is, of course, brilliant, and "Living For The Future" was pretty good, too (that middle breakdown is fantastic), but for the most part I couldn't hack all the happy wailing divas and simplistic plinking piano melodies -- after about 3 tracks the disc starts repeating itself and gets pretty tedious. -- - d.w. storage company access code : 8089909 (I'm not making that up)
