Melancholy sample-laden electronica. Pizzicato strings, joined by pastoral flute sample and orchestral sample. Harp effects interspersed with heavy syncopated beats and big D’n’B womps. Orchestral strings some to the fore midway, then settles back to the mid-tempo groove. Bold and brazen with a regal air, if Jason Bourne starred in the Wind in the Willows, perfect mash-up for dance content or tongue-in-cheek adverts.

The Get Back
Sample-heavy hip hop with electronics. Arpeggiated synths intertwine with an analog, modular vibe. Male vocal samples and a laid back beat kick in with hints of orchestral strings for grandeur. Strange, trippy and cool, breezy 90s California feel perfect for a pop culture doc or weird online content.
Subconcious Chant
World fusion with beats. Dub reggae bass line with orchestral string playing on an Arabic-style melody, melancholy choral vocal samples, moody electronics, and piano chords over a trip hop/ breakbeat beat. Brooding, thoughtful and searching, a vast, global sound perfect for travel documentaries or cross-cultural content.
Secrets
Warm, summery hip hop. Fat synth chord intro, retro and fuzzy, trap beats and cute, bleepy melody line added, then jazzy vocal samples. Chilled, calm and breezy, perfect laid back soundtrack to fashion content or a free-wheeling TV sequence.
Paradise
Breezy summer beats. Wonky flute-like synth pads with tinkling piano. Big synth melody enters before a sexy and satisfying beat drop. Bright and breezy trap beats give way to sparkling chimes for the break. Blissful, laid back and cool, like a warm summer breeze, perfect jam for pop culture content.
Contemplative
Gentle piano and acoustic guitar instrumental. Simple piano melody joined by calming, repetitive acoustic guitar, a key change brings freshness before a blissful section of gentle humming strings like bees hovering on a flower. Chilled, serene and romantic, delicate music for a thoughtful nature documentary or hopeful TV/Film scene full of blossoming love.
Can’t Stop Me
Blues rock stomper with attitude. Low-key, anticipatory build up on bass, drums and electric guitar, a heavy, stomping drum groove introduces a raw blues guitar riff and Black Keys-style scuzzy electric guitars. A psychedelic vocal refrain, ‘Can’t Stop Me Now’ of close male harmonies breezes in over the plodding beat. Shredding guitars solo before fade out. Cool, determined and badass, clean, slick, American blues rock for an advert or TV sequence with swagger.
Sorry
Melancholy trap with orchestral strings. Sombre piano chord intro, trap beats drop. Woozy bass synth unsettles. Flickering beats, breathy vocal samples and austere orchestral strings add complexity. Determined and driven yet slightly sentimental, perfect for the reflective aftermath of a bittersweet and decisive onscreen moment; don’t look back as you walk away.
Demon Hunter
Hi-energy synth banger. Fast beats and high hats introduce a bass-heavy synth riff. Vocal samples and frantic synths build to a massive, crunchy bass drop. Fat, flashy synths call-and-answer, competing for space. Expansive synth section like Mario Kart’s rainbow road before another wonky bass drop with slow, skewed beats. Final section is a slow synth strut. Big, bouncy, colourful and positive with a bit of crazy thrown in, would suit a reality show montage or bright and shiny pop culture documentary.
Ringworld Interlude
Expansive synth track. Broad enveloping synths wash across the soundscape like the beam of a lighthouse. Followed by a James Bond theme-style foghorn blast. Dreamy, mysterious and melancholy, an uncertain sound to suit a thrilling podcast or hard-hitting, factual, anxiety-inducing documentary.
