Jim Noir - Programmes For Cools

Mint and Sealed Verified independent store

Jim Noir's last LP AM Jazz was critically acclaimed, orbiting the top 10 of many best albums of the year lists. In the intervening years, Noir has managed to release a criminally u nderrated masterpiece, 2023's Rotate LP, under the ‘Co-Pilot’ moniker, with long time collaborator Leonore Wheatley (International Teachers of POP/Soundcarriers), along with 18 E.P.'s released direct to fans via Patreon. Programmes for Cools draws from the best cuts from these E.P.'s, bookended with instrumental intermissions which evoke Noir's excursions into computer game music (Little Big Planet), with an orchestrated focus, as if scored by John Barry with Mort Garson waving the conductor's baton at a vintage synth ensemble.
