Picnic is a gorgeous Spanish-language record of beautiful harmonies and lush instrumentation similar to Belle & Sebastian a la The Boy with the Arab Strap, the swaying rhythms of Gilberto Gil and tender 60s rock reminiscent of Love and the Zombies.Picnic is a rare treat of a perfect pop record with revelatory songs underneath the album's fuzzy, echoed wash. With important contributions from Duglas Stewart (BMX Bandits), Norman Blake (teenage Fanclub), Jad Fair (Half Japanese), Federico Aubele, Sebastian Kramer, Leumann, Earzumba & other friends.

ABOUT CINEPLEXX
Cineplexx is the brainchild of Sebastian Litmanovich - 1973, Argentinean born- Graphic Artist and musician that currently lives in London. Growing up at a time when the sounds of punk clashed with the short-lived wave of disco and the singer-songwriter was contrasted by the album-centric epics of bands like Pink Floyd, Sebastian found himself somewhere in the middle. "The Velvet Underground were the first band that really blew my mind… and I've been a fan of ABBA ever since I was four," he admits. For Sebastian, his life and career have been as varied and exciting as his musical influences.
Last year Cineplexx began work on Picnic, enlisting the help of friends Duglas Stewart (BMX Bandits), Norman Blake (Teenage Fanclub), Jad Fair and Federico Aubele to flesh out the 13 song record. The outcome is truly beautiful - with a throng of strings, wall-of-sound-like arrangements and Spanish language vocals, Cineplexx has delivered to our shores an instant classic.
He also made some albums under diverse alias such as Amarena Incident (a post rock band from 1997), Readme & Anthony, Portatile Room Mobile (a cover band together with Leumann.net), and Cacahuetes Inc. (a fake documentary producer with aBe) and also have some collaborations with Jad Fair, Daniel Melero, Glaznost, Leumann, Sebastian Kramer, Wevie Stonder, Jaime sin Tierra, Giradioses, jackson souvenirs, aBe (bcn), Federico Aubele, Natalia Clavier, Duglas Stewart (Bmx Bandits) & Norman Blake (Teenage Fanclub).

QUOTING & PRESS CLIPS.
Picnic debuted at 108 on the CMJ Top 200
“The album is a real unexpected treat, and Cineplexx are the kind of crush that might just bloom into a full on love affair.” / All Music Blog
- 4 stars, AMG Album Pick - / All Music Guide
Picnic (review) “Perfect for that surreal Sunday in the park” / Newsday
Picnic (review) "7.5… Litmanovich’s closest musical comrade might be Cornelius. The two share fascinations with exotica, soundfields and meticulous rhythmic organization." /Paperthinwalls.com
Picnic (review) “easy-going, soft pop…sprinkling in elements of Spanish folk and bossa nova” / IndiePages
Picnic (review) .It would have been nice if the length was longer, but I suppose it was intentional in that it serves as a nice referesher by sitting in between the self-titled track and the outstanding “Droga Paliativa”. “A Mi Lado” works with a simplistic drum loop and the subdued backing of an acoustic and electric guitar. Litmanovich’s vocals are in full force here, constructing a haunting melody that complements the placid guitar arrangements nicely. Boasting plenty of memorable material with 15 tracks, Picnic may very well go down as one of the most uniquely engaging releases of the year. / Obscure sound

Picnic (review) .Based off of the songs that appear on the Myspace page, I am so far most enamored with the title track, a dreamy, yet slightly off kilter song whose vocals kind of make it sound as if it were recorded on an island inhabited by friendly ghosts. The carefree employment of xylophone helps this effect nicely. Also helping the beautiful oddness of this track is the presence of Jad Fair. All of the tracks make smart use of electronic elements as well as human elements (i.e. you can dance to most of them!) All maintain a sweet breezy pace. Most of the songs are sung in Spanish, the notable exception on the Myspace page being "Tiger Trap" (oh so deliciously twee in both the story detailed in the song, AND the likely reference to the band of the same name, um, and the fact that Duglas Stewart is singing it.) I simply can't wait until I am able to hear the entire thing. Until then, I will most likely be finding my way here, a lot. / Square Girls

Picnic (review) .warm and friendly pop for a springtime picnic. If you like Belle and Sebastian, The Radio dept, BMX Bandits, Camera Obscura, Little Name, Jens Lekman, Flaming Lips, Teenage Fanclub or the Beach Boys, you’ll love Cineplexx. It’s a wonderful album, and a perfect companion to the coming days of Spring. “Picnic” is a wonderful collection of pop songs, with Sebastian’s warm and almost whispered Spanish vocals in front, full of pretty melodies, lush strings and harmonies, but far underneath all the niceness, you’ll discover more noisy, fuzzy and strange elements, - sometimes also darker - , which makes the album more interesting in the long run. The title track, where Jad Fair is involved, is almost psychedelic in its playful and dreamy arrangement. Wonderful!?This is one of the album’s really strong sides: The more you listen to it, the more you’ll discover. / EARDRUMSMUSIC.com



Picnic (review) .Una colección de pequeñas composiciones pop. "A mi lado" se trata de un tema precioso, pegadizo y realmente cautivador. /Palabelia.com



CONCERT Cineplexx & The Odeons .Experimental music, suggestive sounds, dreamlike melodies and a lot of savoir faire that leaves a sweet after-taste. / Laura Bo Lecool.com



CONCERT Cineplexx & The Odeons .pop lo-fi flotante y orquestado teñido de psicodelia. /popmadrid.com



CONCERT Cineplexx & The Odeons .Is an elegant and compact melodic pop band, filled with good vibes, sensibility and delicateness, with an air of humour and passion. Their concerts are an enjoyable, emotional voyage who leave you feeling good inside. / Alex Brahim, Lecool.com
