Jolly orchestral caper. Plucky, percussive strings intro joined by dynamic woodwind with playful glockenspiel interludes. Call and answer section between strings and glockenspiel with insistent pizzicato percussion. Fun, quirky and cute, a spritely orchestral cat ‘n’ mouse chase, perfect for an advert for a pesky household problem with an ingenious solution.

Lust for Groove

Upbeat, jangly rock n roll track. Solid indie drums and bass introduce blues rock guitar and keys with some guitar soloing. Brazen, confident and fun, cleaned-up shambolic indie rock, a lite version of Artic Monkeys, Babyshambles and Jet.

Road To Somewhere

Bouncy electronic track. Arpeggiated synth, soft beats, washes of warm synth chords and an effects-laden wistful synth melody. Settles into a cheesy 80s groove, dynamic undulating synths underneath the hopeful melody line. Positive, romantic and nostalgic, Dire Straits does synthpop, perfect for a retro, optimistic, aspirational TV/Film soundtrack or advert.

Orchestral action-film music. Fast pulse of orchestral strings, guitar and drums builds anticipation. Electronic elements introduced to the pulse, creating tension. Orchestral strings begin a repeated motif with electric guitar crying out on top. A sudden break before creepy meandering strings are introduced before a return to a suspenseful orchestral whole. Nerve-wracking, threatening and relentless, driving soundtrack to a high-stakes TV/Film scene, or a humourous advert referencing this genre.

Epic orchestral track with electric guitar and piano. Single atmospheric piano notes ring out over an ambient wash of noise. Orchestral strings introduced with a chorus effect building sense of serenity and calm. Brazen electric guitar cuts through the atmosphere with bombastic chord bursts. Sparse but rhythmic piano chords add a pulse then drop out. Quiet section of meandering piano and gentle strings to finish. Calm and peaceful, then surprisingly powerful, a psychedelic adventure, like if The Who made a meditation album, perfect for a documentary about the natural world or an inspiring, motivating advert.

Naive hyperpop. Catchy synth melody over sweet synths and a serious beat build. Beat drops, wobbly synths, whooshing samples and warm, enveloping, pretty chords. Another build, squeaky synths and a beat break. Happy, sincere, cute and sparkly, like the bonkers kawaii of PC Music, or computer game music, perfect for Reality TV montages/interludes, or adverts for young and fun summer festivals, or rainbow computer game fantasy worlds.

Reflective solo piano track. Melancholy piano melody with undulating broken piano chords beneath. Emotional movement and expressive phrasing. Sad, yearning and romantic, a cry to a long-lost love or bygone time of happiness and gaiety, perfect for a desolate, dramatic TV/Film scene.

A Body Up Against Itself

Folk rock instrumental. Short ambient intro, then main intro of mandolin with strummed guitar chords, solid drums a strong bass line join, adding punch and depth. Arpeggiated synth then an electronic break with synth strings, muted, faraway drums and atmospheric synth before the drums, bass and guitar kick in again. Confident and strident, yet thoughtful, folky with a harsh rock edge, perfect TV theme music to suit a terrestrial drama, or for an adventure/travel advert for the British outdoors.

No Drums, Stems and Ad length versions available

Futuristic and heartfelt tech-house / commercial techno. Female rhythmic but tonal vocals guide us in a dreamlike way, reminiscent of the orb “It’s a Fine Day” – Halycon Remix which we totally recommend. Sweet vox combined with sampled music box chimes and deep synth pads create a retro theme but with an ultra modern, clean and emotional twist. Suitable for high class sequences, fashion, technology showcases, anything that is future facing with feeling.

Full bodied laid back hip hop, I can see California lens flare, sunny cruising past beautiful people, feels urban but crisp with bold beats, lush synth chords and intricate DJ scratching. Clean, fresh and cool, with a sense of power and style. Would work in promos, car related programmes, or any stylish showcase segment. Like Summertime by Jazzy Jeff and the Fresh Prince, but without Will Smith trying to rap and much much cooler. Highlight is the massive chorus section at 1:16 – full of sweet synth impact.
