Vagabond_Instrumental

Sparse synth pad beginning gradually becomes gently rousing with heartbeat-like kick drums, choirs and synth.

Eternity

Somber orchestral synths with chatter in the background at first, but then just orchestral synth and tinkling fx. Becomes grand and sensual, includes what sounds like throat singing in the background. Sci-Fi, fantasy, “Lara Croft discovers a new wondrous cavern” probably sums it up.

The Waiting Room

Light acoustic guitar arpeggios with soft background piano. Hopeful and poignant, with a positive ending.

Hope She Dreams

Hopeful lingering piano descends into echoing ambient textures with strings, ending with stronger piano with more resolve. Simple version is less dreamlike and just piano and strings.

Midnight Light

Somber beginning with heartbeat like pulse and lingering acoustic guitar, leading to hopeful mid-section, and a gently determined chorus with added drums. Medium Slow.

Do it for the Kids

Young, celebratory, motivated and proud. Ukelele and percussion with pizzicato strings and glockenspiel develops into light orchestral movements with solo cello. Hopeful piano interlude with clock ticking sound then big finale. Medium pace.

Chocks Away

Happy lighthearted and fun, a bouncy summery track with full band instrumentation following a verse chorus structure. Medium fast pace.

Crossing the Line

Low tense piano with eerie string effects creates an air of hushed expectancy, leading to a section hesitant movement, held breath and finally warm deep achievement, with hesitant but strong orchestral strings. Beautiful, majestic and yearning. Slow.
