Country violin instrumental with piano. Violin, oom-pah bass and drums and tinkling piano to start. Slide guitar introduced for a solo. Wistful violin returns. Sentimental, warm and wholly nostalgic, harking back to a bygone time, would suit an advert that’s keepin’ it country, or a TV/Film moment of cheesy reverie.
Violin-led country-folk instrumental. Folky violin melody with occasional harmonies soars over wistful slide guitar, gentle electric guitar, double bass and steady drums. Warm, fuzzy and sentimental, perfect for a slightly cheesy, Waltons-style, wholesome American TV show or nostalgic advert.
African jazz instrumental. Snaking double bass intro, joined by jazz drums, vibraphone, electric guitar and keyboard playing a rhythmic motif. Change of rhythm, horn blasts then saxophone melody, subtle African-jazz style, effects-heavy electric guitar solo, brass noise before vibraphone motif returns and all play until the finish. Intriguing, exotic and sensual, with hints of Mulatu Astatke and a little Fela Kuti influence, would suit a travel documentary or Film/TV scene evoking the spirit of a hot night in urban 1970s Africa.
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.
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.
Indie pop/rock instrumental. Upbeat, positive punchy electric guitars with breezy acoustic guitar, bass and drums. Driving mid-section the back to the happy chorus. Final euphoric section with quickening drums and bright guitar chords into full-blown indie-style shredding. Hopeful, fun and inspiring, perfect for a wholesome advert or as background music to exciting TV sports coverage.
Synth organ track. Dreamy, retro chords and motorik bass with rhythmic acoustic guitar and plonky glockenspiel melodies. Happy, uplifting and carefree, gradual crescendo with orchestral strings and upbeat drums. Sound like Au Revoir Simone, perfect for fun, family adverts or indie TV films/dramas.
A cacophony of guitar feedback. An electric guitar melody emerges, joined by deep drums, strident bass, upbeat tambourine and wailing guitar notes. A strange and spooky vocal section takes over, joined by gutteral bass and relentless percussion. Like Tame Impala, shamanistic, powerful and psychedelic, perfect for a badass advert or to accompany a driven character on TV.
Female vocal track. Hang drum beat, low female vocal, emotive and melodic. Gentle guitar creeps in, adding brightness and a tinge of hope. Instrumental section with strings and more complex drums and grungey guitar section before a quiet, reflective vocal ending. 90s, sentimental and romantic. Imagine this in Dawson’s Creek, Dawson and Joey, alone in their rooms, each day dreaming of the other.
Upbeat acoustic guitar track with snappy beats. Folk-rock guitar with mid-tempo chilled drums and some delicate synth. Positive, driving and wholesome, a commercial sound perfect for an advert for a refreshing beverage or a product that is hearty and healthy.
