Anyone heard of Cinematic Orchestra?

Hi all

Don't know if any of you have heard of Cinematic Orchestra, I came across them with their second album "Every Day" back in 2002 and have been an avid fan ever since.

Genre wise, the only thing I can best think of is a Nu Jazz kind of vibe.

Their latest album though is really something else, it's been out for a couple of years now, but every time I stick it on, it's like the first time I've heard it.

Latest album is "To Believe" and I'm thinking @Stephen M may appreciate it, stick it on loud and let it wash over you! All their albums are superb.

It's such a work of art, this album. Not to everyone's taste.

I just love that it's a beautiful mix between an electronic repetitive base, built up with strings and drums and it's all about builds and crescendos, I really love it.

I do think this is their best album to date, took 7 years in production!

I’ll definitely give the rest of it a listen. I got a little bit of a Godspeed You Black Emperor vibe from the layered, heavy on the reverb soundscape.

Thanks for bringing them to my attention 👍

Only a quick listen but will certainly be having a good listen to it when I have time. Thanks.

Hope you don't mind me jumping in here but I just wanted to say wow. I hadn't heard of them until now. I've only listened to the first 20mins but I'll be listening to the rest later for sure. Definitely something I'd chill out to.

Thank you!! :love:

Really pleased you like it!

I'm a bit of a music pusher, like a drug dealer with beats and strings. Can't help it, hear something I love and have to get other people to at least listen!

You did ask :)
Also Sprach Zarathustra by Richard Strauss is well known from the opening of the classic film 2001, but rarely heard played on kazoos.
