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.

It’s Just What I Think
Nostalgic soundtrack to kids playtime. Naive intro on warm, retro keys. Joined by sound effects, tinkling cans and crunching paper. Vocal ‘Ooohs’ enter with uplifting drums, interrupted by spoken word samples. A steady drum beat, keys and percussive tin can groove settles in, sounding like a microscopic recording of ants in work in the backyard. A new synth-led section brings fantasy, twinkling lights and gurgling sound effects, before a return to the melody with added percussive effects. Innocent, hopeful and nostalgic, suitable for a heartwarming advert looking at families, kids and the joys of childhood.

Come Through

Cool, clear synth like water droplets takes on the chord progression before a full ending. Romantic, nostalgic and hopeful, like if the Drive soundtrack was a bit more RnB. A subtly determined soundscape, perfect for pensive and decisive TV/Film/Doc moments, ultimately leaving the past behind.

Threatening, exotic and suspenseful, perfect track to accompany global espionage or a worrying high-tension situation on screen.
