Famous for singing Gollum’s Song on the soundtrack of The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers (2002), the Italian-born Icelandic singer Emiliana Torrini has since pursued a high-profile solo career. In 2016, she began a collaboration with Aarich Jespers and Kobe Proesmans, two Belgians better known as The Colorist Orchestra. Having enjoyed considerable success together, they’re doing it again six years later, with Racing The Storm. With Jesper and Proesmans multi-instrumentalism on display, it is the orchestral quality of the album that appeals above all. This is characterised by an abundance of original sound combinations which are ideally suited to Torrini's pure and youthful tone. Hilton’s tribal electro, You Left Me in Bloom’s varied bell sounds and Right Here’s minimalist marimba are all appropriately subtle backdrops for the singer’s voice. The Wedding Song is an impressionistic music box full of touches of sound as delicate as they are meticulously placed. In other tracks like “A Scene From a Movie”, the cinematic aspect of Torrini's style comes to the forefront, where she leaves her voice behind to concentrate solely on her compositional skills. With Racing The Storm, Emiliana Torrini has created an experience as soothing and mysterious as an Icelandic sunrise. ©Nicolas Magenham/Qobuz
