Cyril Morin a commencé très jeune sur scène comme guitariste et comme compositeur pour la télévision. Il a ensuite collaboré avec de nombreux réalisateurs, renforçant son style en un langage éclectique et universel.
Ses premiers longs métrages, Samsâra, La vallée des fleurs (Pan Nalin), La Fiancée Syrienne (Eran Riklis), et Automne (Ra’up Mcgee) le font voyager musicalement à travers le monde, de l’Inde aux États-Unis.
Très vite ses compositions sont remarquées et il reçoit deux prix au festival international de la musique de film d’Auxerre pour La Fiancée Syrienne puis pour Zaina (Bourlem Guerdjou). Il est également nommé aux European Film Awards et aux World Soundtrack Awards. Il reçoit aussi deux prix pour la musique de La Petite Jérusalem (Karin albou), film sélectionné à la Semaine de la Critique à Cannes.
Rapidement il se rapproche d’un univers plus urbain et plus sombre avec les films Shamelove (Mattew Mcusic), Pleure en silence (John Gabriel Biggs) et Une journée (Jacob Berger). Il compose aussi les musiques de 20 Nuits et un jour de pluie (Lam Le), Les feux de Mansare (Mansour Sora wade) et Un cœur simple (Marion Laine).
Cyril Morin collabore aussi avec la télévision pour des films engagés comme Nuit noire 17 octobre 1961 (Alain Tasma) qui remporte l’Emmy Award du meilleur film, ou Capitaines des ténèbres (Serge Moati). La musique de la série Mafiosa, le clan (Louis Choquette), un thriller pour Canal+, sera largement remarquée par la critique.
Il a également orchestré des chansons pour Madonna (Music), Mirwais (Production), Mankato (Safe as houses). Il a été récemment samplé par le rappeur Kery James et sa musique est maintenant remixée par des DJ. Il a aussi produit et composé les récents albums des chanteuses Vidya Rao (Song for Shunyata) et de Zera Vaughan (The new seed)…
Parallèlement aux bandes originales, il enregistre aussi des musiques d’inspiration contemporaine (4 string quartet) et plusieurs albums solo associant habilement orchestre symphonique et électronique (dont Western Pansori, salué par la critique).
À ce jour, Cyril Morin a composé la musique d’environ soixante films et d’une dizaine d’albums mélangeant toujours les styles, les formats et ses multiples sources d’inspiration…
Depuis 2012 il poursuit également une carrière de réalisateur, avec le court métrage The application Cafe en 2012, et les longs métrages The activist en 2014, Hacker's game en 2015, et NY84 en 2016.
