Golden Now

Upbeat indie pop/rock instrumental. Driving drums, insistent guitars, solid bass guitar and celebratory horns. Anticipatory drum break, guitars re-enter lightly with a tropical vibe, back to all out groove. Bright, fun and happy,slick but heart-warming commercial pop/rock for sun-soaked travel adverts or good-natured reality TV.

You Got the Sun

Laid back country rock track. Funky electric guitar riff with solid bass guitar, steady drums and bright piano chords. Slightly psychedelic, slightly brit-pop but mostly country pop/rock instrumental, Oasis’ long-lost country album. Upbeat and happy-go-lucky like a cheeky cowboy, would suit relaxed adverts for American-style foodstuffs or an easy, breezy TV/Realty TV scene.

Mitochondria

Epic electronic build with orchestral strings. Crackly intro, muted electronic build, powerful beats and glassy synths. Sustained, dramatic orchestral strings build to a pummelling electronic beat with glittering arpeggiated synth and a serious, choppy string section. A break before a fresh build. Solemn and driven yet hopeful, all out epic 90s vibes like Fatboy Slim’s ‘Right Here, Right Now’, would suit tense sports coverage, a dramatic advert, or sincere documentary TV.

Mumuration

Melodic orchestral string and drum build. Choppy orchestral strings play a bright melodic motif. Syncopated beats join, growing in volume and complexity. Break before lively orchestral strings and anticipatory beats kick off again. Builds to a summery climax. Positive, hopeful, happy and sincere, like an orchestral version of Dario G’s ‘Sunchyme’, euphoric and fun, perfect for emotional reality TV moments or excitable documentary TV scenes.

Special Delivery

No nonsense rock ‘n’ roll. Powerful electric guitar intro riff, joined by drums and intense soloing guitar. Straight up drums with noodling electric guitar soloing in bursts. Lighter, more 60s vibe to the next section. Brash, bold and self-assured. Reminiscent of Neil Young’s more rock ‘n’ roll moments, or of a 1970s hyper-masculine rock band or Mick Jagger throwing shapes. A School of Rock-style solid jam for TV or Doc moments where strutting and playing air guitar are required and encouraged.

Wish You Weren’t Here

Sunny funk track. Funky Prince-like funk guitar intro, electric guitar funk riff with melodic bass guitar and consistent drums. Bright, whistling organ joins on top for the chorus. New section with warm 60s keyboard solo over a slower funk. Moved to a smooth, slightly Spanish guitar solo. A quiet guitar break then back to full chorus. Upbeat, joyful and positive, perfect for a TV montage or holiday advert, sunshine and holidays, playful abandon and laughs with friends.

2009 AD

Electronic trip hop instrumental track. Water sounds, electronic lasers, organ-like drone snatches. Naive riff on cutesy synth turns is joined by trip hop beats, shuffling drums and synthesised string interludes. Fleeting sitar samples and scratchy electronics punctuate the beat. Electronic/drone break before the riff and frantic electronics, like vinyl-scratching, rejoin until the end. Cool, laid-back and urban, a throwback to the baggy trouser days of the 90s, with a hint of Morcheeba. Would suit adverts for clothing or lifestyle products, or as background music for an urban drama or documentary.

Underworld

Smooth electronica. Cold synth chords with heavy delay, bubbling bass synth notes, 90s trip hop-style drums, glitchy beats, fuzzy electronics and icy synths. Steady groove throughout. New section to finish: effects-laden piano and spacey synths take over. Fade out. Laid-back, cool, calm and detached, perfect for a TV Documentary in a clinical setting…Nurses on Call, Daredevil Doctors, or a smooth corporate video.

Wild Horses

Uplifting acoustic guitar instrumental. Fast-paced strummed acoustic guitar riff. Drums and additional guitar lines added, sounding like light humming, building a sense of anticipation and joy. Hand claps, bass guitar and extra percussion add depth. Ends of quietly triumphant cymbal crash. Happy, carefree and optimistic, clothes hanging out to dry on a fresh summer’s day, a yappy dog frolicking in the grass, suitable for an easy-going, hopeful montage on TV/Film, or on an advert for a friendly kids product or service.
