To Believe

Description

12 years after the worldwide success of Ma Fleur, The Cinematic Orchestra makes its grand return with the album To Believe! The Cinematic Orchestra is back with a new album that explores a timeless question that has become vital in 2019: what to believe? Jason Swinscoe, the band's founder, and long-time collaborator Dominic Smith, have surrounded themselves with a panel of artists, mixing old acquaintances with new contributors: Moses Sumney, Roots Manuva, Heidi Vogel, Grey Reverend (Bonobo's vocalist on "First Fires"), Dorian Concept and Tawiah (Mark Ronson, Kindness) and Miguel Atwood-Ferguson (Flying Lotus, Anderson Paak, Thundercat, Hiatus Kaiyote) on strings. Artist and photographer Brian "B+" Cross worked with Swinscoe and Smith on the very concept of this album, mixed by Tom Elmhirst (David Bowie, Frank Ocean, Adele) at Jimi Hendrix's legendary Electric Lady Studios. The artwork is by The Designers Republic™ (Aphex Twin).
