No one makes music like The Cinematic Orchestra. Their blend of soul, jazz, beats & widescreen arrangements is beloved the world over.
TCO return with their first full-length since 2002′s “Everyday”. “Ma Fleur” was written as the soundtrack to a specially commissioned screenplay for an imagined film, which may or may not yet be made. Dealing with themes of loss and love, “Ma Fleur” is fertile ground for Jason Swinscoe’s brand of raw-emotion music making. If the mood is melancholy, Swinscoe and company manage to make it an ultimately uplifting experience, perhaps in the end more about the love you find than the love you lose.
The photographs you find here have been chosen to accompany each of the songs contained on “Ma Fleur”. Inspired by but not tied specifically to any of them, these largely unpeopled studies in light are meant as an aid to the listener in reconstructing or creating the narrative contained at the heart of this suite of music.
