In both live and studio context, the Cinematic Orchestra employ a live band which improvises along with a turntablist and electronic elements such as samples provided by Swinscoe. In their studio releases Swinscoe will often remix the live source material to produce a finished product that is a seamless combination of live jazz improvisation with electronics, such that it is difficult to tell where the improvisation ends and the production begins. It is worth mentioning that in the sound of the Cinematic Orchestra the role of traditional solo instruments, such as piano or wind instruments, is not the same as in traditional jazz; instead of performing intricate solos they provide a mature accompaniment environment and quite often there is more space for the drums and the double bass to have a lead role.
The Cinematic Orchestra have been noted for their new score to the classic 1929 Dziga Vertov's Ukrainian film "Man with a Movie Camera". They have worked on two other scores: they recorded some tracks for "Ils se marièrent et eurent beaucoup d'enfants" (2004) and made the music for the Disney Nature movie "The Crimson Wing" (2009).
The Cinematic Orchestra released their latest album "Ma Fleur" on 7th May 2007. The album features vocals from Patrick Watson, Fontella Bass and Lou Rhodes. In 2010 their compilation Late Night Tales followed.
They have started their own record label: Motion Audio Records. One record has been released by Lou Rhodes. More releases will follow, including Grey Reverend.

To Build a Home
by The Cinematic Orchestra
There is a house built out of stone
Wooden floors, walls and window sills
Tables and chairs worn by all of the dust
This is a place where I don't feel alone
This is a place where I feel at home
'Cause, I built a home
For you
For me
Until it disappeared
From me
From you
And now, it's time to leave and turn to dust
Out in the garden where we planted the seeds
There is a tree as old as me
Branches were sewn by the color of green
Ground had arose and passed it's knees
By the cracks of the skin I climbed to the top
I climbed the tree to see the world
When the gusts came around to blow me down
I held on as tightly as you held onto me
I held on as tightly as you held onto me
And, I built a home
For you
For me
Until it disappeared
From me
From you
And now, it's time to leave and turn to dust

Yes I am crying like a baby. This takes me back 21 years ago when I sat with my wife in the hospital. it was her last night on this earth.
The song is the most beautiful piece of music I have ever listened to. All our memories are rushing over me right now.

My ex girlfriend dedicated this music to me, well to us, the first time i listen to it we were using watch2gether, because we were far away, I'm from Italy and she was from Germany, we had a long distance relationship, but a the end, it didn't work, we broke up after 1 year, and in april we split up. We argued the last time we talk, and since then I don't have any news from her.. but man, I still love her, I can't really get over, it's december and if i think about her I have feelings and start to cry. I'm sure she is my person, my soulmate, because i've never feel nothing like this, and before i had a 6 years relationship, but God, she made me feel things things i've never felt.. This is her favorite song, and maybe sometimes she still listen to it, so maybe one day she will scroll the comment and read this: "Debora, I really loved you and still I do, you are my soulmate, you are my person, please take care of yourself, from Joel". Please guys, blow up this comment, maybe she will read it one day, thanks all, God bless you

I’m also kinda in a similar situation, I’m from South Africa and my girlfriend is from Germany. I was with her in February but she was forced to fly back to Germany because this Covid-19 nonsense and babysit her sisters since her mom is Doctor 😞🌻
