A visual jazz sound where silence and sensuality intersect.
This film score, co-written by Miles Davis and Marcus Miller, combines delicate trumpet and sophisticated synth sounds to create a fantastical soundscape.
"Music From Siesta" captures the tranquil charm of Miles Davis's later years. Marcus Miller's meticulous arrangements and programming create a visually charged, sensual soundscape. The trumpet resonates like a deep breath, and powerful emotion drifts through the silence. This experimental attempt transcends the boundaries of jazz, portraying cinematic emotion through sound, and is the culmination of an artistic collaboration born from the mutual understanding between Davis and Miller.
