Legendary innovator Mike Cooper brings his expansive sonic vision to life with Reluctant Swimmer / Virtual Surfer, a striking fusion of electronic, folk, world, and country influences. Recorded live at the Controindicazioni Festival of Improvised Music in Rome in 2003, the album captures the restless energy and boundary-defying spirit that have defined Cooper’s career across decades.
This singular performance unfolds in four movements, blending original improvisations with evocative covers of Van Dyke Parks and Fred Neil. With atmospheric lap steel guitar work and haunting vocals, Reluctant Swimmer / Virtual Surfer offers a mesmerizing listening experience, making it a standout addition for admirers of genre-blurring music and unique live recordings alike.
