With “Chasing Slow,” Cinephile blends reflection, hope, and craftsmanship

For many artists, a long absence is something to worry about, but for Cinephile, it became an opportunity for reinvention. With an atmospheric electronic track that is familiar and refreshingly new, “Chasing Slow” sees the return of the Scottish duo after a decade since their last project, the “Skin” EP.

Cinephile, the project of writer & producer Kenny Inglis and vocalist Susan Wallace, has always been about making music that resonates on a deeper level. The duo embraces both the experiences and struggles of a changing world, leaving a sense of hope and renewal in “Chasing Slow.”

The song’s electronic downtempo basis sets up an immersive atmosphere that compels you to slow down and drink in every detail. The song was recorded remotely between two studios in Scotland, and although reflective of the reality of modern music-making, it still has the feel of an intimate song.

Susan Wallace’s vocals add a little warmth and emotion, drifting effortlessly through the finely tuned soundscape of the track. Kenny Inglis’ production, on the other hand, is cinematic and forward-thinking. “Chasing Slow“ is a song of resilience, growth, and artistic evolution. It’s a reminder that great music can go far and inspire reflection and comfort in uncertain times.

GHOST FUNK ORCHESTRA harnesses the power of stillness with latest release “Ocotillo”

GHOST FUNK ORCHESTRA takes you on a journey with “Ocotillo,” a cinematic meditation on resilience, renewal, and the moments of peace that follow life’s greatest challenges. The song is named for the hardy desert plant that thrives in the harshest environments, and was inspired by a revitalizing walk through Silver City, New Mexico, after an especially grueling Southwestern tour. That symbolism is the emotional core of a richly textured musical experience.

Centered around hypnotic grooves, lush orchestration, and the band’s signature blend of psychedelic soul, jazz, cinematic funk, and experimental rock, “Ocotillo” plays out like a vivid landscape on the move. Each layer of music adds to the meditative mood, as the tiredness gradually shifts into clarity and the feelings of travel become optimistic and healing. The composition reflects nature’s quiet ability to heal, without ever losing its cinematic sweep.

“Ocotillo” is more than a song; it’s an invitation to stop, think, and find balance in the midst of life’s constant movement. GHOST FUNK ORCHESTRA represents the restorative power of nature, a lesson in how perseverance can produce unexpected loveliness. It’s a meditative, transporting piece that sticks in the mind long after its final notes, rewarding each attentive listen with new emotional depth.
