Percussion Experiments

Magical and dreamy, with an ethereal celeste and orchestral percussions that create a compelling mix of childish playfulness and a confident rhythmical manner. It will suit well 30 seconds adverts. A sense of discovery for a mysterious world where children with magical powers play with castles made of sand.

Pensive Wait

Light and repetitive, with a slight Asian flavour given by the instrumentation and a mysterious ostinato played by a filtered glockenspiel. It has a synthetic edge that takes away any human element from the performance, making it robotic and repetitive, almost hypnotic. Yet, it does not evoke a particular sense of danger or deceit.

Moment of Clarity

Evocative and dreamy, an ambient episode of music with nice and largely white atmospheres. Features high pitched female choirs, quirky randomised percussive elements, and a series of everlasting drones. Somewhere in between ancient and futuristic, it’s an acid vision for your protagonist, albeit strangely calm and with the foreboding feeling that everything, in the end, will be fine.

Ambient

Airy and dreamy, with a beating heart impression and a cheap electric guitar that deliver a straight and simple theme while lying on a bed of synth drones. An honest ambient tune with a sense of achievement and emotion, will suit evocative and truthful scenes that do not have to be grand at all costs.

I, Me

Dreamy and deranged, with an evocative exotic flavour and a bouncy percussive-led rhythm that bring you in a sort of Bollywood b-movie dungeon. Weird and hypnotic, will suit commercials and sequences with an ironic edge.

Sky High

Atmospheric and contemplative, with a 16 bit feeling that reminds of video games from the eighties/early nineties. A hypnotic arpeggiated synth and digital flutes and bells create a sense of lightness and airiness. Zelda and Mario can finally meet up and glide azure skies with cotton candy clouds.

Brasil

Warm and sincere, an ambient episode with traces of tender melancholic elements. Emotional acoustic arpeggios and evocative solos of trumpet and acoustic guitar create a wonderful sense of longing in space and time. As the title suggests, there is indeed a south American edge here, but definitely more in a calm-sunset-on-a-beach sausade way than carnival party time.

Manifesto

Emotional and tender, with an all in open-pedal piano and a light orchestral arrangement that make for a classic inspirational tune. With a grandiose feeling and a straight rhythmical pattern that gradually takes over until the end, it will suit classy short form advertising that musically needs to match a gradual grow in intensity without being too blatant.

Kill the robots

Repetitive and flowing, it starts tense with a rhythmical bass synth. Soon a detuned piano enters the scene to counter balance the darkness with some emotional lighter ideas. The bass follows it as a drum section slowly creeps in and helps in gaining strength to the tune. There is sense of longing and broken romance, but defiance and challenge are definitely ahead. Somewhat in between hi-tech and retro.

Mirrors

Calm and repetitive, with a sentimental reverberated piano and a light touched glockenspiel that take us around for one of those long and longing Sunday afternoons. It’s cold but also strangely hopeful. A natural complement for your broken characters, the ones that never know where to look for a glimpse of deserved tranquillity and happiness.
