Heartbreaks
Moody downbeat electronic track. Intro of shimmering synth and finger-snap-style beat. Arpeggiated synth melody and underwater beats are joined by syncopated cowbell – sparse percussion over a wash of silvery synth. Bassy synth joins, adding depth to the track. Moody, downbeat, relaxed, head in the clouds, a laidback track, suitable for cool contemporary advertising as well as Film/TV.
Bollywood Love
Bollywood -style track with a contemporary R’n’B edge. A snaking sitar line is followed by tablas and an electronic beat. A flute melody joins before moving to a more intense, dramatic orchestral string section. Vocal samples and a change of rhythm with jazzy hip hop drums, before going back to the original sitar motif. Seductive, mysterious, intense and edgy, would suit adverts for products reflecting diverse city environments where the traditional and the contemporary mingle; or a TV/Film sequence referencing an edgy version of the Bollywood aesthetic.
Dusk Till Dawn
Atmospheric electronic track. Reverb-laden piano, church-like reverberations with delicate, sparse electric guitar and fleeting electronics added. Orchestral strings play out sustained notes with single, bending violin notes crying out on top. Downbeat, melancholy, pensive but with a hopeful nostalgia, like wandering home through empty streets in the middle of the night, perfect for a reflective TV/Doc/Film scene or a thoughtful advert.

At The Circus
Dreamy build on keys with delicate echoing harmonies and swaying shuffling drums. Relaxed, gentle and sun-kissed, perfect background music to a bleached out montage of the happy sunny days of youth.

NBA
Pulsating rhythmic track with synths and beats. Swooshing synths ebb and flow like the ocean throughout above a relentless beat like a news intro.
