Uplifting piano track with orchestral strings and hints of shoegaze. Simple piano intro, building anticipation, orchestral strings swell in the background, plodding bass guitar percussion then soaring strings and quickening percussion build to a retro, shoegaze, slacker grunge section with orchestral strings. Elbow meets The Jesus and Mary Chain. Powerful yet chilled, romantic and hopeful, a dreamy, inspirational build to suit a closing scene on screen or a heartwarming advert.

Eclectic Movements

Posted on July 19, 2018 by Music Supervisor

Atmospheric electronic track. Synth drones with metallic electronics, fleeting sound effects and glassy beats with snatches of retro 60s keyboard melodies on top. Ends with Broadcast-like crackly, pulsating synth drone. Psychedelic, chilled and immersive, slightly serious and introspective, would suit a mind-bending scene in a Film/Doc/TV show.

Piano and orchestral string build. Orchestral strings undulate under soaring strings building to a powerful percussive section with vocal-like electronic samples and continuing epic strings. Quiet section with vocals then percussion rejoins building anticipation and tension to a multi-layered textural soundscape. Contrasting soft piano section to finish. Strange, dark and intriguing, pagan sounds reminiscent of singular Scandinavian pop like the Knife. Perfect for an onscreen threat or a bold, epic and uncanny film or TV scene.

Experimental pop with vocals. Breathy, reverb-laden vocals over Dirty Projectors-style noodling electric guitar, unpredictable rhythms and rattling percussion.

Eclipse

Breezy electronic track. Fat 90s synths ring out over a steady dance beat. Tinkling electronic effects create texture, the pitch moves up and discords ring out. Counter melody on synth and bouncier beats bring a laid back energy. Fun, chilled and happy, a stress-free 90s throwback, kind of cheesy but fun, a sophisticated Vengaboys meets Pet Shop Boys.
