Atmospheric electronic track. A dark pulse topped with fleeting electronic beats, delicate glassy synth motif and more percussion. Arpeggiated synth then the quiet pulse of a heartbeat. Dark and sombre with broad synth chords and a bubbling synth motif, similar to Fever Ray. Technology coupled with human weakness – danger could be close at hand. Suitable for a cold Nordic drama or a crime documentary.

Carrousel
Bleepy electronic synth track with orchestral strings and a vocal chorus. Bright glockenspiel-like synth notes ring out as the vocals and strings build to a dynamic section with more attitude. Charming with a glamorous edge, perfect for a corporate campaign video or advert for luxury goods.
Uku Girl
Happy-go-lucky ukulele track with bell-like synth, electric guitar with hand clap style drums and tambourine. Drums and guitar double up with a fuller sound as the track progresses, adding to the sense of momentum and excitement. A guitar solo breaks out before returning to the original ukulele riff. Warm and fuzzy, happy and carefree, sounds like Maroon 5 on a wholesome holiday in Hawaii. Suitable for an advert for a product or service aiming to improve your family’s wellbeing.
Friends or Nah
A breezy R ‘n’ B instrumental. Upbeat but chill with jazz piano flourishes, wah synth lines, sunny West Coast delay-heavy samples and trap beats. Euphoric in a low key way, this track feels like driving around LA, smoking out the window, sun high in the sky, enjoying life. Perfect for young brands and blissed out TV/Film scenes.
A Poor Crisis
Romantic piano and string track. Lush orchestral strings, a slow-paced piano melody, descending. The strings swell and overwhelm the piano. Becomes more dramatic and hopeful, literally ending on a high note. Melodramatic, wistful and nostalgic, like Bach’s ‘Air on the G String’ crossed with a less eerie Twin Peaks theme tune, would suit a heartfelt TV/Film moment or advert playing on saccharine retro melodrama.
Beatitude
An upbeat, Two Door Cinema Club-style instrumental indie track. Guitar, bass,drums and electronics play a jerky intro followed by a brighter, fuller, more positive, sound for the ‘chorus’ section. A synth break then back to the build and chorus. A dramatic stop before an all-out indie groove kicks in. Jerky and precise but upbeat and hopeful. Perfect for an interlude on a Made In Chelsea-style TV show; on an ad for a fun and young product or service; or as an energetic backdrop to TV sports coverage.
Glass Lip
An atmospheric soundscape of extended strings and electronic drones. Synth and strings drones undulate while a sparse, heavily processed guitar punctuates. The pace quickens with more prominent synth before a fade out. Atmospheric, ambient, silvery and cold- ideal for a tense TV scene, a moment of reflection and introspection for our character as he gazes out on a cold, barren landscape.
Secret Agent 2
A short burst of swinging jazz with walking bass, horn blasts and shuffling jazz drums. Fizzing with energy and hedonism, this Pink Panther-esque vintage track harks back to the jazz age but those rumbling drums would not be out of place on the Flintstones. Perfect for a short energetic advert or a goofy retro TV sequence.
Underwater Dream
A mysterious, orchestral journey of wonder under the sea, past schools of multi-hued fish and shimmering oyster shells with their iridescent pearls, through a fog of pastel bubbles. Beginning with a slightly threatening drone, this track soon gives way to ethereal beauty. Bells tinkle and bubbling piano emerges to take us on a magical Disney-style journey. Strings and woodwind keep us enthralled as the piano ebbs and flows. Slightly spooky but full of wonder and joy, this is classic fantasy film sequence. Perfect for a brief, enchanting interlude on TV or for an advert conjuring a sparkling submersion in a new world.
Eivissa
Laid back lounge track. Shimmering synths, horns samples, shuffling drums and a breezy acoustic guitar riff. Vibraphone adds a touch of jazz and a tinkling brightness. Balearic vibes, sunshine and sparkling turquoise waters. Cool, easy-going and calming. Perfect background music for a holiday advert: sipping on a refreshing cocktail, watching the burning orange sunset in a dream destination. Or suitable as relaxing background music for factual TV.
