Atmospheric electronic track with accordion. Broken underwater synth chords, bloopy, deep and mellow, build a beguiling atmosphere. Soon joined by freely melodic, meandering accordion giving it a French flair as watery chords and deep sea synths lay down calming chords and mermaid choruses. Magical, vast and deep, a hopeful, experimental track perfect as documentary background music or for a Gallic product or film, or to accompany a frightened mermaid morphing back to human form.

Atmospheric strings track. Duelling raspy string effects, subtle ambient noise, subtle electronic drone imitating string overtones. Tense, suspended, unmoving, claustrophobia on a loop, would suit an uncertain situation that shows no sign of being resolved.

Piano version lighter, with more movement from the intermittent piano. For more hopeful onscreen situations.

Gamelan version lighter, more soothing and meditative.

Downbeat trip/hip hop track. Starts with a moody electric guitar riff, heavy with reverb and delay, dark and brooding. Electronic samples and complex beats are added, before single piano notes add to the sombre mood. Melancholy, serious, slightly dark with flashes of futuristic silver, reminiscent of Massive Attack and downbeat, emotional 90s films.

Cinematic orchestral track. Rumbling percussion, horn blasts, soaring orchestral strings and disruptive glitches, play out over a futuristic battlefield. Dramatic and threatening but hopeful, would suit a wartime thriller set in a dystopian future or an advert evoking a challenge of epic proportions.

Tense, percussive electronic track. High-tension, high-pitched, high-speed cowbell beats over sparse pounding drums and fleeting percussive and electronic effects. A trance synth beat takes things down before piano chords introduce a hyperactive finale. Nerve-wracking, exciting and full of anticipation, a nail-biting percussive race with Balearic House vibes, suitable for a any TV/Film/Advert scene where the heat is on and the clock is ticking.

Dark, foreboding electronic track. Synth blasts, sirens sounds, screeching string samples and electronic glitches. Tense, threatening music for a post-apocalyptic world, where technology has surpassed human intelligence and machines are our unforgiving masters. Uh oh! Also suitable for sleek and powerful car adverts or an intense sports competition.
