Cinematic Orchestra
The
Cinematic Orchestra is a
British-based
jazz and
electronic outfit created in the late
1990s by Jason Swinscoe which records on the
Ninja Tune record label. In both live and studio context, the Cinematic Orchestra employ a live band which improvises along with a
turntabilist 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 seamless combination of live jazz improvisation with electronica, such that it is difficult to tell where the improvisation ends and the production begins. Cinematic Orchestra have been noted for their new soundtrack to the classic
1929 Dziga Vertov Russian film Man with the Movie Camera.
