Wisdom Child

Posted on June 17, 2016 by jamie

Relaxed and positive, with gentle indian instrumentation including tabla and sitar-like guitar. It doesn’t do much, just holds it’s space with a rich upright bass sound and the introduction of rhodes at 2:45, it would be almost lazy if it wasn’t for the tabla pushing things along with its crisp melodic insistence. The feeling I get with this track is like I’m drifting serenely down a river, and everything is totally ok with the world. Reassuring. Perfect for branded content with themes of travel.

Sapphire

Posted on June 14, 2016 by Music Supervisor

Solo jazz piano. Romantic intro of blissful exotic jazz chords, full melody of chordal 4ths calls to mind Erik Satie or Japanese-inspired classical composition a là Madame Butterfly. Delicate waltz section, playing around with the same Eastern-inspired chords. Hopeful, loving, content, would suit a romantic Film/TV scene where a smitten character floats on a wave of love. Would also suit a soothing, peaceful advert for a beautiful object or luxurious service.

Farewell Lionhead

Posted on May 14, 2016 by Music Supervisor

Solo jazz piano. Thoughtful, slow-paced jazz piano chords, old-fashioned jazz meandering, feeling semi-improvised with passages resolving on sweet chords or questioning chord clusters. Melancholy, pensive and full of longing, would suit a classic film scene, a là Casablanca, lonely hearts gaze into their whisky sodas…nobody understands like the piano player.

High Roller Jack

Posted on February 22, 2016 by antonio

Repetitive and hammering, with a smoky electric guitar riff built as a direct reminder of seventies almighty rock icons such as Jimi and Frank. From 1:30 onwards it gains some nineties elements, culminating in a hi gain solo a la Slash and Guns and Roses. It will suit strong rhythmical visual sequences, sexy clubs, and controversial advertisement.

Jaunty and sneaky, a nice patchwork of old style rock and roll piano chords, soul inserts, R&B and jazzy samples all caged in an energetic big beat structure. A saxophone comes and goes to complement this quirky and compelling episode of music.

If You Were Mine

Posted on February 14, 2016 by Music Supervisor

Jazz piano solo. Relaxed jazz chords, sparse and measured. A tense repeated phrase leads to a pensive, sombre melody with hints of hope from high piano notes. A meandering improv-like melody deviates from the original chords progression before a quiet, content ending. Thoughtful, intense and reflective, a moody piano number perfect for a the heightened tension of a romantic love scene. Two star-crossed lovers on separate paths through rain soaked streets. One in Paris, the city of lights, the other in Woody Allen’s New York…will their paths ever meet again?

West Side at Night

Posted on February 2, 2016 by antonio

Catchy and groovy, with modern dub beats and a dusty low-fi feeling that take you for a spin in a city full of lights and graffiti. Good for urban settings with a skewed retro look, but also for showcase and promo videos.

Kafka Was Here

Posted on January 21, 2016 by antonio

Catchy and playful, with Jazz elements such as alto sax, piano, contrabass and drums to deliver a smooth and swing feel. It follows an A-A-B-A structure and features solos by sax, piano and bass. Great for scoring comedies, adverts and as background music.

Instant 1

Posted on December 20, 2015 by Music Supervisor

Synth pop track. Frantic bleepy synth intro, snare drums shuffle. Keyboards play sparse riff, over alternating marimba-like synth notes. Another layer of piano creates overlapping rhythms, Drums break with single piano notes, drums become more complex. Spanish acoustic guitar plays solo over drums, frenetic, choppy orchestral strings take their turn before the finish. Sombre and mysterious, sophisticated pop for flashy corporate videos, ad campaigns or background music for intriguing documentaries.

Hipsty

Gritty hip hop and funky elements make for an energetic and cheap jingle-like short episode of compelling beats. An orchestral arrangement complements the scene and creates a 1 minute musical progression ideal for sport broadcasting and anything that requires a short and energetic interlude.
