It's been far too long since we've heard anything from The Cinematic Orchestra. Almost five years have passed since the last Cinematic Orchestra album – the blissful, ethereal Every Day – came out, so you can understand our anticipation for any new stuff.
And here comes the new stuff. Out of nowhere comes news that a new album by The Cinematic Orchestra – entitled Ma Fleur – is just weeks away from release, which would normally be enough to send us into frenzy of salivation. But if that wasn't enough, the gods have gifted us all a free taster of the new Cinematic Orchestra album in the form of a download. According to people who know these things, the download - Ma Fleur opener To Build A Home – is "a sparse and achingly beautiful piece of music". And who are we to argue with that?
