Le Vent

Beautiful glockenspiel sequences with glassy synth in background. Joined by plucked classical guitar – very anticipatory. Stays on a soft dreamy tip until 2:30, where it breaks down with quick percussive glockenspiel. Finally breaks into a light beat at 3:53 with harmonising arpeggios, then builds slightly with synth pads. Simple guitar arpeggio outro.

Ex Tempate

Soft emotive classical guitar is joined by soft glockenspiel, and low cello. Neutral, sweet and passive at first but gets more intense by degrees til it ends full of longing. Feels like unrequited love.

Lounging House (Suite)

I’m imagining a rich boutique, a decadent tropical showcase, a sumptuous playground for the rich and opulent. You’re not coming in here mate, them shoes is casual. Laid back beats, rich textures, a chilled mood.

Voices in My Head (Suite)

Dramatic anticipatory undertones, rich synth landscapes. Uneasy and dark. Excellent for underscore in tv / documentary dramas.

Sarah’s Ambience

Uneasy tones, starting with radio static and joined by metallic morphing harmonies. Perfect backdrop for suspense and drama. Expansive and desolate.

Move Your Feet

Quality disco with a laid back feel. Intro builds on a hi-hat drum riff with a funky bassline, joined by cool piano, jangling guitars. Cool, funky and earnest. Reminiscent of “We’re Lost in Music” by Sister Sledge.

Vocal version has words “move your feet, step up to the beat, got the urge to move your body”.

Frisco Disco

High energy disco with a club feel. Intro builds in timbre crashing into sophisticated high energy disco arrangement with funky bass, bongos, string riffs, piano and the occasional sexy voice saying “yes”.

Making Jack a Dull Boy

Dark atmospheric piano elements with tambourine and other percussion. Grooving and dissonant, building with tense octave notes. Sounds like: Tom Waits’ soundtrack to Down By Law.
