Mike Cooper - Reluctant Swimmer Virtu - [Vinyl]

The 'icon of post-everything', Mike Cooper, returns to Discrepant with a recording of a live set recorded at the Controindicazioni Festival of Improvised Music in Rome in 2003 .The music moves very slowly through four movements: Reluctant Swimmer , Movies is Magic , Virtual Swimmer and Dolphins . 'Floating in out of the exotic ether and disappearing like smoke, engulfed in the alien hugeness of nature... a very elegant set by a visionary artist.' Mike Cooper says 'the first half is played on my old 1920s National tri-plate lapsteel guitar and the second half on my vietnamese electric lap steel. I also sing two songs along the way. Movies is Magic by Van Dyke Parks and Dolphins by Freid Neil. It was the first time I had ever sung the last song.' Tracklisting A:Reluctant Swimmer / Movies is Magic B:Virtual Surfer / Dolphins File under: Electronic / RIYL: Mike Cooper, Exotica, Andrew Pekler, Dolphins into the future
