Composer Anna Meredith has shared "Calion", a brand new single for the Adult Swim Singles Series.
Meredith - who released acclaimed and award-winning debut Varmints in 2016 - was fairly quiet last year, but she's back now with a stunning steel pan-laced offering that sits somewhere between Jamie xx and Jon Hopkins.
Exciting news TWO! I’m totally chuffed to have written a bordering on cool new track ‘Calion’ for the amazing @adultswim singles! Out today! https://t.co/sF02KZaiBK pic.twitter.com/rEpwYby2aw

Although 2017 wasn't super busy for the Scottish artist, 2018 could be a lot busier...
Ha! Not quite yet.... watch this space! Xx
