That’s for Eating With

Quirky instrumental. Dramatic opening, sustained keys and brass, sounds like the electronic rainbow blasts of Animal Collective. Gives way to a meandering jazz saxophone joined by a brass blast then an unexpected quirky percussive section with piano and a big build, all instruments in, like the finale of a stadium rock concert. Sparse breathy saxophone section before another epic blast of noise. Solo sax then all instruments in, strings, drums, percussion, vocals and brass with drum crashes and wallops before a peaceful end. Bombastic and epic with slow, thoughtful sections, a fun mix of styles and moods, would suit a silly Film/TV scene humorous advert for a bonkers product.

Port Authority Bus Station Blues

Atmospheric acoustic guitar track. Brooding solo guitar accompanies itself with finger-picking and block chords. Slow, meandering, expressive and nostalgic, suited to a turbulent TV/Film scene set in America. Becomes more emotional and dense throughout, growing in intensity and turning slightly melancholy.

This is a Chair

Relaxed solo blues guitar track. Chilled acoustic guitar melody, calm and restrained with melodies emerging from the free rhythmic style. Dramatic build in speed and emotion before a strong, cheerful refrain, followed by a sparse, bittersweet outro.

Seven Eight Stepper

Upbeat Rhodes piano and full band track in 7/8 time. Synth effects, drums and keys chordal intro. Mid section with jazz drums and dynamic Rhodes piano and an electric guitar build. Drum-led section. Keys rejoin and track builds to inspiring heights with dramatic stabs by all instruments punctuating the melody. Reflective guitar-led final section, again building to an emotional crescendo. Perfect for a TV/Film finale or as background music to exciting, unpredictable sports coverage.

Eastern

Calm yet intoxicating eastern-style track with acoustic instrumentation. Guitar, vocal samples and varied percussion, including tambourine and hand drums, build an intense atmosphere that feels like an improvised jam on a single guitar theme. Subtle background strings add depth. Reminiscent of Andorra-era Caribou as well as North Indian Classical Music, but with a hint of the Middle East, suitable for a mysterious atmospheric build.
