Ticking Time
Uplifting pop/rock track. Quiet drum and guitar intro building to including expressive vocal ‘Aahs’ and ‘Ohs’ with heavier drums. Mid section is more experimental, reverb-laden vocal samples reminiscent of FKA Twigs’s ‘Water Me’. Overall more like Coldplay, expansive, emotional and open. Would suit a TV/Doc scene of emotional closure, or a heartwarming advert.
Experimental Boombox
Electronic track with piano. Insistent drums build anticipation to a thoughtful, melancholy piano hook with dynamic vocal samples and spacey synths bending melodies. Introspective and romantic with experimental sonic leanings, would suit a thought-provoking advert or emotional TV scene.
Rollin
Experimental electronic track. Slow, warped, ambient chords grow in volume and brightness, underpinned by a heartbeat like pulse. Piano notes and colourful synth chords emerge and a female vocal sample adds a strange, other-worldly atmosphere. Woozy and peaceful, like a Jai Paul track, nostalgic, beautiful and enigmatic. Would complement an off-kilter documentary or dreamy film scene.
Zero
Dark techno track. Throbbing beats, vocal samples and a wash of deep, heavy rumbling synths, underpin a high pitched synth hook, trap beats and an energetic build. In full swing with syncopated beats, synths and deep, playful vocal samples. Murky, menacing and brazen, strange Burial-style techno, perfect for a fashion film or edgy documentary.
Endlessly Haydn Eggs
Quirky woodwind instrumental with experimental vocal effects. Sparse cello intro joined by pizzicato strings in jerky counterpoint. Woodwind enters with breaths used to percussive effect. Track builds with layers of rhythmic snatches to a gently minimalist cacophony. Playful and lighthearted with a rich and warm tone, perfect for a nature documentary or a comedic, mysterious Film/TV scene.
Roots (Suite)
Acoustic guitar and piano track with experimental elements. Gentle acoustic guitar punctuated with electronic noise and water sounds. Joined by warm piano and hints of playfully subtle saxophone, minor chords growing in intensity and turning to major for a hopeful finish. Mysterious, cheeky and subversive, brings to mind a magical woodland scene of trees going walkies while your back is turned. Perfect for TV/Film/Docs, pastoral settings and subtly powerful storytelling.
Bed version is more intimate, featuring more raw, sparse acoustic guitar, brings out the scratchy, barely-there violin and teasing background noise.
Sideline
Laid back funky R’n’B. Funk bass line intro with woozy synth chords and playful samples. Calm, jazzy synth chords layered on top, vocal samples and wonky synths create an experimental feel before laid back drums ground the track. Jazz piano samples add a sprinkle of colourful lightness. Chilled, serene and carefree, smooth funk with a quirky edge, perfect for a retro advert or urban documentary.
Noise Water Beats
Experimental Lo-Fi Hip Hop track. Ambient sounds with a degrading, crackling quality, kitchen pottering, water whooshing, industrial machine-like noises, joined by resonant piano chords and crunchy beats. 90s, Hip Hop beats drive the track, with looped piano chords and background noise a constant. Mysterious, experimental, chilled and darkly playful, like exploring the Looney Tunes Haunted House, off-kilter beats and samples to suit a Vice news style documentary or contemporary urban filmmaking.
A Strange Economy
Atmospheric electronic instrumental. Layers of ambient drones suspended in mid air with hints of harmony emerging. Calm, peaceful and dreamy, suitable for a seemingly calm documentary or tv sequence with slightly shifting, moving and wandering, like a raft adrift on the ocean.
