A Really Quite Excellent Tune From Jim Noir.
JIM NOIR, I WANT TO MARRY THE FACE OFF OF YOU.*
This is a tune that’s giving me instant RSI from repeatedly and promptly hitting the play button as soon as it finishes. This tune has it all: Dreamy vocals that have too much reverb (too much reverb is never enough reverb), acoustic guitars that are happy but not so jaunty as to be annoying, random spoken bits that sound like they were taped off an improperly-tuned-AM-radio, and… and….and! Ladies and gentlemen, IT HAS A SQUIBBLY SYNTHY MOOGY BIT. And then more reverb!
BEHOLD, and then DOWNLOAD:
Jim Noir – One Note World by hells-belles
Jim Noir has also started a club called “The Noir Club”. For just £2.99 of your British pounds, you will get monthly Jim Noir Stuff – music, videos, maybe even a cake (the last one is my suggestion). NOIR CLUB HERE!
Some other clubs you may want to join, because, well, everyone likes to belong somewhere, don’t they?
Moshi Moshi Club – £30 gets you digital versions of every single release Moshi Moshi puts out for a whole year. That is a very good deal.
Too Pure Singles Club – £35 gets you a 7″ single every month for 12 months. Old school.
Paper Garden Lovely Hearts Club – Not a strictly a club, because you don’t really join, you just go to their website and download the MP3s for free, but I thought they deserve a plug because they put out Little Tybee‘s records, who are a band who sound lovely and are kind of twee, but not in a barftastic way.
*Boyfriend, I’m just kidding. I don’t really want to marry the face off Jim. Just his song.
