Tango-style guitar with accordion and whistling. A dramatic pause and then a faster section with trumpet, strummed guitar and percussion. Silly, fun and celebratory, a jolly track that would suit a sun-soaked advert for a fun time or a Latin-American inspired product.

Liberia
Orchestral track with drums and a pop vibe. Shuffling drums, bass guitar and orchestral strings are joined by gentle acoustic guitar for a powerful positive build. Bass break with electronic beats toward the close, before the full band rejoins for a joyful finale. Anthemic and Elbow-esque, suitable for subtly feel-good soundtracks, charity campaigns or longform adverts.
High
Intense, emotional female vocal with tense orchestral strings, acoustic guitar and beats. Dreamy vocals, gentle plucked acoustic guitar and reverb-laden beats create a woozy atmosphere with a 90s feel. Orchestral strings and bass guitar underpin the breathy melody. Romantic, nostalgic and intoxicating, would suit a 90s throwback teen drama.
Happy Harp
Playful pizzicato strings and double bass play a jaunty, carefree melody. Strings imitate the plucked strings of a harp, in the absence of any actual harp. Fun, hopeful, positive and warm, a slight melodic idea that would be a perfect piece for a short advert or TV interlude.
Guitar Titles
Driving electric guitar-led indie track. Upbeat, uplifting with chiming guitars and steady drums, reminiscent of Naughties indie or an instrumental Wild Beasts. Would suit an advert or a Film/TV sequence propelling us headlong through a landscape or into the heady landscape of love.
V2 has added drums, synth and a fuller, heavier sound.
Four
Breezy folk track with male and female vocals. Subtle electronics mingle with arpeggiated acoustic guitar and shuffling percussion in this gentle love song. Blissful, dreamy and happy. Halfway through, the sun comes out and this track grows in bleached out intensity and warmth. Suitable for a euphoric, romantic tv or film moment.
Cure This Disease
Gentle acoustic guitar with soft spoken word. Acoustic percussion to relaxed breakbeat. Positive, peaceful and hopeful.
Crazy Cakes
Wacky 70s organ with silly add-ons. Kitsch, fun, over-the-top and playful, imagine a quirky 70s family like the Brady Bunch or a town full of crazy characters.
Chromer
Anticipatory synth & guitar joined by jubilant staccato strings with a pulsing beat. Sort of a cross between Coldplay “When I ruled the World” and some sort of early Arcade Fire track. Expansive and euphoric.
Awake When Yr Asleep
Whimsical, dubby but light electronic beat with a carefree whistling synth topline. Chilled, laid back ambient progresses to a light driving pulse, suitable for technology documentaries – imagine a promo unveiling Tesla’s new car.
