Legendary group The Cinematic Orchestra have been merging electronic music and cinematic soundscapes for decades. Their timeless albums are rich, lush, immersive fusions of a wide array of styles and when they perform they bring all that to the stage and more. Expect plenty off their latest Ninja Tune album, too.

The latest names come on top of another tasteful and all encasing mix of funk, soul, disco, jazz, r&b and house stars that range from brand new and red hot to enduring and legendary. These include the likes of disco queens Sister Sledge, hip hip giant Madlib, funk great Norman Jay MBE, eclectic maestro Gilles Peterson, desert blues icons Tinariwen, disco selector Sadar Bahar, the rousing London African Gospel Choir, new school hip hop from Coops, a strong modern jazz continent in the form of Neue Grafik Ensemble, SEED Ensemble, Hypnotic Brass Ensemble, Theon Cross and plenty of cutting edge neo-soul trendsetters such as Sudan Archives, Greentea Peng and plenty more.
