Simple acoustic guitar picking is joined by bells and pulsing strings, developing into a charged track with feelings of darkness, struggle and glints of hope. Different sections bring in instruments like harp and xylophone for a short period of light relief, then the track races to its end with dramatic string crescendo.

Un Frere et la Mer
Simple melodic guitar and percussion with feelings of fantasy, magic and a hint of oriental. Beautiful arpeggios layer upon each other in positive waves, accompanied by echoing vibraphone/glockenspiel, threatening to launch into the stratosphere. However the organic instrumentation keeps one foot steadfastly in reality, and what a nice lush reality it is 🙂 Perfect for a brand doc about something delicate and refined, feels a bit like you are flying above green pastures.
Medley: The Drink, The Sound, The Sea Elephas
Acoustic guitar medley of styles. Bright acoustic guitar, bobbing along with growing intensity and heavier chords. After 3 mins, new section, more improvisatory with hints of tension, ending on waves of strummed guitar. Hopeful, nostalgic and sincere, sounding like the movement of water, still then stormy, would suit a journey, personal or physical, in Documentary or Film/TV.
Piñata (Suite)
Fun brass and guitar romp. Drums and energetically strummed acoustic guitar intro with piano chords. Brass enters, playing a punchy, upbeat repeated phrase. Track builds, instruments doubled to an abrupt, triumphant finish. Fun, happy, energetic and celebratory, would suit a fun TV montage, our characters plotting a hilarious surprise, or the Bananas in Pyjamas planning a secret birthday party. Also suitable for feel-good family summer adverts.

Breathe
Ambient, minimal piano, slightly stilted, is joined by gentle but clear acoustic guitar, creating feelings of tension and release. Builds with light percussion and minimal kick drum to a tense crescendo. Relief in the second half, with an open and “breathable” ending. Serious but also hopeful, and ultimately serene.
Pile Dans les tCnabres
Bright guitar strumming joined by upright bass and glockenspiel. Develops with fluttering arpeggios and more active glockenspiel lines, breaking down at 2:08 to a more pensive section with long cello notes and stately horns. Builds slowly in harmony, dynamic and layers to a controlled ending. Warm, delicate, complex and beautiful.
Morceau D'Amour
Beautiful glockenspiel sequences with classical guitar arpeggios. Joined by sighing deep cello lines. At 1:11 a simple pulse is introduced, progressing to full organic sounding beat with guitar strums. Searching, nostalgic, positive and dreamy.
Diane et Ido
Soft emotive classical guitar is joined by sad cello, soft glockenspiel, bass and melodica. Crescendo’s to a melancholy finish on solo classical guitar. Sad, magical, sensory, with a sense of loss and grieving.
A l'Ctoile figCe
