Psychedelic northern songsmith Jim Noir is back with single “One Note World”,  his latest blast of retro pop from the future.

Over the past few years Jim’s inimitable stylings have crept into the lives of the people of the UK and beyond, his tracks permeating popular culture, gracing the likes of Adidas adverts, episodes of Grey’s Anatomy and even games such as Little Big Planet. As a prolific writer and artist, Jim has now found a unique way to release his new material. It goes like this: fans join the Noir Club for a mere £2.99 a month and gain access to a wealth of new exclusive material and tracks not available to anyone else.

The past six months have proved that this is no gimmick or flash in the pan with the Noir Club growing as whole EPs of otherworldly Noiry goodness are handed over at a time. With much more promised in the upcoming months,this month is no exception and sees the five track EP “Rainbuns and Blank Ends” (including single “One Note World”) being given away in its entirety to Noir Club members. This latest EP is a delicious departure from reality, a timeless glimpse into the world as Noir sees it and is essential listening.

Ever the generous soul, Jim is giving  “One Note World” to be downloaded for free, here’s the Wav and MP3 link so you can hear it for yourself.
