Hip hop track with orchestral strings. Melancholy string intro. Minimal beats before a bass drop. Deep bass synth mines the underbelly, trap beats up top and church-like bell sample and choral vocal samples add to the eerie atmosphere. Dark, sombre and quietly epic, like Gangsta’s Paradise without Coolio, perfect for an investigative documentary or epic domestic drama of the streets.

Overtime
Chilled trap/hip hop track. Summery Roland-esque organ sounds and quavering church-like synth strings build anticipation before trap beat drops. Devotional piano chords add to the gospel vibes. Zealous male vocal samples at intervals and deep bassy beats interspersed with breezy hi-hat interludes. Laid back, warm and uplifting, inspiring and reverent yet cool, like Kanye West’s Sunday service, hip hop and gospel influences, perfect for hopeful pop culture documentaries for adverts or calmly climactic TV sequences.
Ruins of an Era
Tense synth and piano track. Sparse, anticipatory piano intro with soft synth string chords. Single piano notes ring out building to a sombre choral section on synth, like a grandiose church choir. Echoed on strings, lush and moving before a sudden choppy string section brings the track to a close. Dark, foreboding and full of suspense, an apocalyptic soundscape for when technology has consumed humanity.
