Minimal piano track. Polyrhythmic piano lines interweave creating a continuous, flowing waterfall effect. Sweet yet dissonant, atmospheric and turbulent. A dreamlike cacophony in the mid-section, before an expressive, virtuosic, yet disturbed, finish. Suited to an unsettling Film/TV scene, a psychological horror reflecting the characters tumultuous experiences.

Sparse, western acoustic guitar track. Desolate Americana with touches of harsh slide guitar, like something out of a tense, Ry Cooder-scored Western. Atmospheric, strange and nostalgic, would suit a cowboy parody or Western-style advert or TV scene/documentary.
Tower 42
Emotional, cinematic orchestral string track. Swells of romantic strings, slow and sparse, create an ambient, melancholy soundscape. Sad, desolate and full of longing, perfect for a reflective TV/Film scene during heartbreak or grief.
Tobinesque
Subtle, ambient intro of sparse percussion and synth melody, foreboding and dark, building to a harder sound with pizzicato orchestral strings and 90s trip hop beats. Slightly glamourous, exotic and classy, like a modern James Bond film, perfect for an action/thriller or exciting, potentially dangerous TV scene.
NBA
Pulsating rhythmic track with synths and beats. Swooshing synths ebb and flow like the ocean throughout above a relentless beat like a news intro. New age, floaty but with a hard nervous edge, this track is perfect tension-building background music for adverts, corporate videos, gameshows or a high stakes film scene.
Mercury Rhythm (Intro & Outro)
Piano track with echoing delay effects and electronic beats. Pulsating, muted beats follow from the piano intro, growing more distorted throughout the track. Haunting, strange and futuristic, would suit a TV crime documentary, a tense film or moody car advert.
Outro features scary electronic whooshing effect at beginning, more frenetic piano at first and more beat-driven echoing section which lasts throughout.
Mercury Piano
Solo piano track. Quiet, chordal beginning develops into an elaborate repetitive motif into a more percussive section with polyphonic rhythms. Tentative then dramatic, this piece would suit an advert for a life-saving service or a tense Film/TV soundtrack.
Inner City
Industrial hip hop track with effects-laden electric guitar. Chiming, forlorn guitar rings out over a sparse landscape before it is joined by heavy hip hop beats and bass, adding a more upbeat edge to the track. Desolate, thoughtful and slightly angry, bringing to mind the empty streets of a neglected city suburb in the U.S.
Hoodstar (Instrumental)
Brooding, intense instrumental with electronic samples, synth and hip hop drums. Tense, minimal at times, mysterious and foreboding, leaves us without any answers. Suitable for a tense inner-city investigation on a crime series or film.
High
Intense, emotional female vocal with tense orchestral strings, acoustic guitar and beats. Dreamy vocals, gentle plucked acoustic guitar and reverb-laden beats create a woozy atmosphere with a 90s feel. Orchestral strings and bass guitar underpin the breathy melody. Romantic, nostalgic and intoxicating, would suit a 90s throwback teen drama.
