Default Robin Guthrie Event @ Belmont Cinema

Robin Guthrie
(Cocteau Twins)
presents
Lumiere Live

Picturehouse Summer Tour 2006

Fri 2 June - The Belmont Picturehouse
49 Belmont Street
Aberdeen AB10 1JS
01224 343536

Lumiere is an hour-long animated film created as a backdrop to a sublime collection of stunningly atmospheric guitar-based instrumentals of truly hypnotic beauty.

It has been exhaustively assembled with the same craft which Robin has used in the sonic world for years, an interweaving and layering of images, creating distinct moods which are reflected by the music being played - "improvised within the framework; dictated by the visuals", relying on layers of treated guitars, textures and sumptuously cyclic melodies…

As the founder member of the seminal Cocteau Twins, Robin Guthrie has created some of the most beautiful music of the past two decades and is widely regarded as a musical visionary. The distinctive sonic landscapes that have become his trademark are on display throughout Lumiere and his many admirers will find much that they recognise and love.

The performance draws musically from Imperial, the acclaimed instrumental album he released in 2004, as well his recent soundtrack to Gregg Araki's award-winning film Mysterious Skin. The performance will also include some new material from his forthcoming LP Continental.

This sounds like a cool event. Found this online today.
