Illusions
Delicate, soft harmonies from vintage synthesisers and glockenspiels. Dreamy atmosphere, inspiration from a melody by Edvard Grieg. Mysterious fantasy, sounds like something from Zelda.

Flea Circus & Ice Cream Man
Flea Circus is a drunken comic waltz, with high cartoon singing and cracking whips. I’m including this as the entire website’s most ludicrously specific track. If someone uses this, it can only be for a scene with a circus of very small creatures singing drunkenly together. With whips.
Then (in Ice Cream Man) they all go off and get ice creams in opera mode. Of course.

Fairground for a Mucus Dress
Music for a synthesised, circus party. Rhythmic, upbeat orchestral. Chaotic and crazy.

Dog Sled
Melodicas, Mandolin, strings, whistling and – get this – dog-like Inuit singing combine to create a rhythmic, snowy landscape atmosphere. Melancholy, otherworldly and humorous.

CERN Fulcanelli at the LHC
A quirky, charming theme with bell-like zithers, light percussion, with held sections with brooding percussion and lilting high electronic voices. A happy, bumbling and disjointed procession.

My Garden
Lush warm fantasy with pizzicato and orchestral synth strings, female choral vocals and distant electric guitar. Ever so slightly kitsch.

Floating
Sad ambient deep tones with organic tinkles, joined by evolving synth strings. Emotional with a quiet, powerful urgency.
Floating-JPM
Eternity
Somber orchestral synths with chatter in the background at first, but then just orchestral synth and tinkling fx. Becomes grand and sensual, includes what sounds like throat singing in the background. Sci-Fi, fantasy, “Lara Croft discovers a new wondrous cavern” probably sums it up.
Eternity-JPM
Atlantis
Cool otherworldly / sci-fi synth, simple, warm calm, comforting and strong. With piano and mystical voice developing gently with added synth strings.
