"Lumire is a 40 minute long animated film created as a
backdrop to a sublime collection of sensual and atmospheric,
guitar only, instrumentals of truly hypnotic beauty performed
live by Robin Guthrie

As the founder member of the seminal Cocteau Twins, Robin
Guthrie has created some of the most beautiful music of recent
times and is widely regarded as a musical visionary. The
distinctive sonic landscapes that have become his trademark
are again on display throughout the Lumire performance and
at time touches upon his, thus far, only instrumental album
Imperial and his legions of admirers will find much that they
recognise and love.

Yet what marks this performance out from his recorded work is
the spaciousness of the music. Robin employs an
astonishingly down-tempo pace throughout the performance to
mesmerising effect. This is music to drift away to music in
which you can lose yourself

The film itself has been made with the same craft and
techniques which Robin has used in the sonic world for years,
an interweaving and layering of images, creating distinct
moods which are reflected my the music being played. The
music is improvised within the framework dictated by the
visuals and used no fixed rhythm or beats but more relies on
layers of treated guitars and cyclic melodies. "
