Hell Flames
Disturbed and suspenseful, with piano solo as lead instrument and a symphonic orchestra that deliver unsettling flashes of dark energy. It follows an A-B-A structure, with a huge spike – both in sound and emotional impact – in the middle section. Great for horrors, thrillers and supernatural themes.
Tears from the Moon
Dark and emotional, vivid orchestral strings and introspective electronic drums establish a steady progression where the psychological stakes are high. A violin breaks the tension with a positive opening at 1:00. Piano inserts help to resume in intensity and move to a somewhat grand finale, with harp, flute and violin. Will suite sad and melancholic yet decision-driven sequences, where an action must be taken soon to solve the situation.
Planet Dancer
Gritty bass synth riffs and driving beats, with elements of electricity. Robots, sci fi experiments for kids. Fun, but serious fun. A bit like the music the children of Trent Reznor would make.
Echo Falls
Laid Back And Velvet Underground-esque. Full Track With Synth / Chilled And Echoing / Mid Tempo
KMH Part 1
Minimal piano track. Polyrhythmic piano lines interweave creating a continuous, flowing waterfall effect. Sweet yet dissonant, atmospheric and turbulent. A dreamlike cacophony in the mid-section, before an expressive, virtuosic, yet disturbed, finish. Suited to an unsettling Film/TV scene, a psychological horror reflecting the characters tumultuous experiences.
Ed Mark
Sparse, western acoustic guitar track. Desolate Americana with touches of harsh slide guitar, like something out of a tense, Ry Cooder-scored Western. Atmospheric, strange and nostalgic, would suit a cowboy parody or Western-style advert or TV scene/documentary.
Acephale
Epic electronics with strings. Noisy, atmospheric build, shifting sustained strings building a cacophonous soundscape cut through by screeching electronics and dark, brooding bass synth. Guitars and piano bring a sense of peace at the finish. Industrial, emotional and edgy, perfect for probing documentaries and dark TV dramas.
Tower 42
Emotional, cinematic orchestral string track. Swells of romantic strings, slow and sparse, create an ambient, melancholy soundscape. Sad, desolate and full of longing, perfect for a reflective TV/Film scene during heartbreak or grief.
Tobinesque
Subtle, ambient intro of sparse percussion and synth melody, foreboding and dark, building to a harder sound with pizzicato orchestral strings and 90s trip hop beats. Slightly glamourous, exotic and classy, like a modern James Bond film, perfect for an action/thriller or exciting, potentially dangerous TV scene.
