Our Take

Matthew Herbert and the London Contemporary Orchestra's collaboration on "The Horse" is a musical journey like no other. This album is a rollercoaster of emotions, with tracks that range from hauntingly beautiful to wildly experimental.

From the moment the first notes hit your ears, you know you're in for something special. The combination of Herbert's unique production style and the LCO's impeccable orchestration creates a sound that is truly one-of-a-kind. It's like nothing you've ever heard before, in the best possible way.

The standout track on the album has to be "Gallop." This song is a whirlwind of energy, with thunderous percussion and soaring strings that will have you on the edge of your seat. It's impossible not to feel the adrenaline pumping through your veins as you listen to this track.

But it's not all high-energy bangers on "The Horse." Tracks like "Trot" and "Stride" show a more introspective side to the album, with delicate melodies and intricate arrangements that will tug at your heartstrings.

Overall, Matthew Herbert and the London Contemporary Orchestra have created a masterpiece with "The Horse." This album is a must-listen for anyone who appreciates boundary-pushing music that pushes the limits of what is possible in the world of sound. Trust us, you won't regret taking this musical ride.
