Cinematic track with Japanese elements. Sustained synth strings and a plucked Japanese-style melody on a hammer-dulcimer. Effects-laden, quacking synth break before returning to the regal, traditional-style melodic idea over anticipatory percussion. Reserved, expectant, hopeful and adventurous, perfect for a game soundtrack or for a fantasy-movie sequence featuring a noble, brave character setting off on an important, magical quest.

Taiko Melody
Percussive build. Growing layers of drums and rattling percussion, creating a wide-reaching rhythmic picture. Woodblocks cut through the blanket of drums momentarily before the uniform pounding resumes. Atmospheric, determined and full of anticipation, perfect music for a ceremonial event, a soundtrack to an epic, other-wordly ritual or tribal gathering onscreen.

Medicine Goes Down
Frenetic electro pop, 8 bit madness with a fast skipping beat. Sounds a bit euro.
Luzhin
Fractured and bouncy electro pop. Begins with slow harpsichord then changes abruptly to glitchy topsy-turvy rhythms. Fun, bit-crushed and slightly trippy, imagine that bit in The Beach where Leonardo DiCaprio becomes a computer game.
Enter Atari
Quirky 80s synth track with 8 bit video game vibes and bouncy beats. Fast, fun and fizzling with energy, suitable for a playful, upbeat advert or kids TV interlude.
