“Music is opium for free. Try a little, try to consume me.”
(Hooverphonic)
Cinematique was found in the beginning of 2010 by Robin de Lange also known by some of his friends as the ‘Manual Driver’ for driving Manual Music artists around the country to their gigs. The label started initially as a Manual distribution label first and has become an official and proud sister label of Manual Music since 1 January 2012.
Cinematique presents itselves as the widescreen of electronic music. It explores the boundaries from electronica to techno and everything in between. The label offers a platform for open minded artists, both known and unknown, who want to spread their music into this universe. The label is a hangout of the more edgy, leftfield, experimental and melodic side of electronic music.
It’s also a nice and cosy home for artists like Lanny May * Nadia Struiwigh * Aiden * Trinity & Beyond * Daniel Zuur * Koen Schepens * 10dens * Matthys * Irene Radice * Teho * Anders. * Ina Becker * Fractal Architect * Foot * Woodblock * Ambrela & more.
Furthermore we’ve welcomed people like Estroe * Jamie Stevens * Darko Esser * Applescal * Groj * Mondkrater & N’to on remix duties. Releases have been supported by the likes of James Holden * Hernan Cattaneo * Sasha * Nick Warren * Max Cooper * Eelke Kleijn * Laurent Garnier * Anthony Pappa * Groj * Paul Hazendonk * Jamie Stevens & many more.
