La Paix

Percussive guitar and staccato glockenspiel accompanied by horns. Builds with syncopated percussion. Thoughtful, awake and intelligent with soft emotions. Sweet and brightly nostalgic.

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.

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

Standing Still

Proud and quirky, melodica and rhodes with acoustic guitar arpeggios and squelchy percussive rhythms and finally timpanis. Reminiscent of Bjork in a fun mood.

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.

Sarah’s Ambience

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

Music for an Underground Circus

The sound of a half-forgotten carnival, for harmoniums, toy piano and strings. Slow, steady, expressive and sad. Dramatic and slightly unwell.
