"The Cinematic Orchestra" are nu jazz/downtempo group based out of London, formed in 1999 by producer and band-leader Jason Swinscoe. As their name would suggest, the group's sound is a combination of emotive cinematic strings mixed with samples, live jazz breaks and other live instrumentation. Their releases contain a lot of instrumentals, but they have also been joined on tracks by some amazing vocalists, including legendary jazz artist Fontella Bass, and British rapper Roots Manuva. Join us as we delve further into the music and the beginnings of "The Cinematic Orchestra".

Ducky and Funkiman's tale begins with a casual chat with Seattle lyricist Cory Tate fka Ripynt.  After catching up Cory discusses collaborating with French producers like Arom, and we parley down la ruelle de musique française.  Pivoting into an initial dive about the innovative growth of Seattle hip-hop, and Cory's favorite up & coming local artist.  A benign observation leads to the discovery of the unintended 90's feel of "A Tale of Two Towers" (Tate's 2nd EP under that moniker) leading us to memories of Space Mountain, and a multiverse of Marvel madness.

Tune in next episode for Part 2 of Cory Tate - A Tale of Two Interviews.  In the meantime be sure to check out Cory Tate, Arom, and their new album on Spotify.
