Spanish guitar intro with samples of motorbike sounds, along with uplifting Beirut-like horns and string samples and finger snap percussion. Anticipatory, atmospheric and exotic, would suit an advert set in a city packed with people, this soundscape the refreshing respite from the sweltering city heat and overcrowding.

Self Severed
Female vocal track. Hang drum beat, low female vocal, emotive and melodic. Gentle guitar creeps in, adding brightness and a tinge of hope. Instrumental section with strings and more complex drums and grungey guitar section before a quiet, reflective vocal ending. 90s, sentimental and romantic. Imagine this in Dawson’s Creek, Dawson and Joey, alone in their rooms, each day dreaming of the other.
Oman Synth
Pulsating electronic synth track. Chunky synths and reverb-heavy beats meet arpeggiated laser synths and distorted electric guitar before a gentle synth outro. Dramatic, dark and alluring, would suit a tense TV show moment or a neon after hours film montage.
Oman Strings
Dramatic orchestral string track with orchestral percussion. A soaring string motif over choral vocals and strident percussion with water sound effects giving a fantasy feel. Dramatic, bombastic and epic, this track would suit fantasy battle scenes or an advert for an epic televised sports event.
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.
Mrs Nice
Orchestral percussion track. Timpani, double bass and glockenspiel tip-toe as orchestral strings manoeuvre below. Fun and playful, mysterious and slightly European, perfect for a jokey yet sophisticated advert.
1 minute version available.
Moody Break
Short distorted electronic track. Industrial synths and beats, short and snappy, dark and dystopian, ideal for in between TV/Film scenes or for a short advert.
Midnight (Instrumental)
A downbeat late-night track with guitar, beats and voice. Sombre humming and audible breaths create an intimate atmosphere. Joined by acoustic guitar as the sound warms and builds. Electronic beats take over before the humming and guitar return. A more uplifting and spirited mid-section gives way to quieter moments and a gentle outro. Lush, quiet, heartfelt and uplifting, an emotional rollercoaster that would suit a TV/Film drama, or a trailer for a heartfelt film.
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.
