Review: Long influenced by the relationship between music and film, Ninja Tune's TCO fulfill a long-term goal with "In Motion #1" - namely soundtracking new, avant-garde films with the help of like-minded contemporaries. It works a treat on this first outing, with the Orchestra's "Necrology" riding a sense interplay between live and stuttering jazz snares and a tense piano motif, that slowly shifts chords in the manner of a Steve Reich piece. Elsewhere, Austin Peralta's classically-scored "Lapis" features violins climbing a scale toward a swooping and tear-stained conclusion, while Dorian Concept and Tom Chant create a jaw-dropping 9 minutes of ambient synth gurgles, skronking sax and hypnotic, frozen atmospheres.
