just wondered if anyone had heard of the cinematic orchestra and what u thought of them? i think they're really good, especially to chill out to!

I have heard of them. but I am not a huge fan. their songs are too relaxing for me.

i've got 2 cds... i'd call them jazz more than alternative but that's besides the point hehehe...

and they are great to chill out too after a little smoke hehehe... i'm still looking to find their first album (motion) whenever i check out cd stores but i haven't had any luck yet... i REALLY like their instrumental stuff but can't really stand their songs with vocals... the music is top notch but the way they implemented the voice sounded kind of pretentious to my ears...

just a side note for people thinking about getting some of their music... the last 2 albums they released are almost the same... 'man with a movie camera' was a soundtrack they did in 99 and released this year (all instrumental)... 'every day' came out in 2002 and 4 of its 7 tracks were on the soundtrack album... although vocals were added on 2 of the songs...

I dld some songs some time ago. I didn't dislike it, I even liked some parts, but most of the songs were too relaxed for me too.
Maybe because I'm not really into jazz...

I kinda like them. Unlike evilmatik I like them because they are so relaxing.

Well I got to know them because Panbient recommended them to me! I've only heard some instrumental stuff but it was pretty good...the type of music I'd put on while I was doing work. It wasn't the best music I've heard but it's still easy on the ears an enjoyable to listen to.

its good to space out to...............

just like a majority of the Ninja tune family, the CO are great!

are they Ninja Tune 2????

And the drummer is good too....He's really good. The whole band is talanted, but sometimes they are a little too soft for me.
