Stuart McCallum - Distilled - out on Naim Jazz

Friday 28 October 2011, 18:08

Stuart McCallum - Distilled
(CD/Digital) Naim Jazz/Harmonia Mundi NAIMCD169, 2011-11-10

Manchester guitarist and composer Stuart McCallum is best known for his work with The Cinematic Orchestra. The distinctive, ethereal and atmospheric sound of his guitar has been at the heart of their sound since 2004, including on the albums Ma Fleur and Live At The Royal Albert Hall and the award winning soundtrack The Crimson Wing. His own music influenced by jazz and DJ Culture is a distillation of many influences, creating a sound that is concentrated and distinctive. McCallum who admits to influences from Wes Montgomery to Bjork, Flying Lotus to Bon Iver and James Blake to Bill Frisell, as well as modern art, eschews over complicated harmonic and rhythmical structures in favour of a rich mix of electronica and improvisation enriched by elegant orchestral writing. Distilled, McCallum's brilliant third album, and first for new label Naim, is a culmination of the music he has written over the last few year and the idea of ‘distillation' is right at the heart of how the record was written…

LateNightTales compiled by The Cinematic Orchestra

Various - LateNightTales compiled by The Cinematic Orchestra
(CD) Azuli ALNCD22, 2010-04-05

The Cinematic Orchestra have mixed the next edition of LateNightTales. Following recent compilations by Snow Patrol and Matt Helders of Arctic Monkeys, TCO's LateNightTales marks a return to the sultry, laid back sounds of the series' earlier editions by artists like Four Tet, Lindstrom and Air. Mixing electronic acts such as Burial, Flying Lotus and St Germain with the likes of Nick Drake and Imogen Heap, the mix promises to be as eclectic as it is smooth. And given TCO's heavy involvement with film culture (the group's frontman, Jason Swinscoe, also scores major motion pictures), it should be no surprise to see soundtrack selections like Burt Bacharach's South American Getaway" included as well?
