The Wall Pt 1 & 2

Atmospheric piano track with mechanical sound effects. Clunking and whirring background sound effects, like the inner workings of a pocket watch and the tapping of typewriter keys, underpin slow piano chords and lyrical orchestral strings, growing in emotional intensity throughout with added strings and more melodic, powerful piano. Introspective, pensive and nostalgic, would suit a TV/Film sequence set in 19th century Paris, or a scene evoking the mechanical workings of a dark, lonely city.

Pt 2 features sparse piano as well as harp and pizzicato violin strings.

American Glory

Sparse all-American Western track. Echoing electric guitar and rattlesnake percussion. A desolate desert soundscape, tumbleweed and a blazing sun. Mysterious, pensive and reflective, perfect Ennio Morricone-style soundtrack music for sombre western TV spoofs and adverts or documentaries reporting on another type of cowboy.

Between Time, Over A Secret Root

Sparse piano solo. Fragmented piano phrases, plaintive harmonies emerge from the piano counterpoint. Slow and widely spaced snatches of melody. Contemplative, strange and questioning, a curious piano piece, would work well in contrast to a calamitous drama onscreen, or an equally reflective and thoughtful TV/Film/Doc scene.

Wistful Piano (Suite)

Scattered piano melody with electronic effects over a subtle ambient synth drone. Background drone grows in waves of atmospheric noise. The noise grows stronger and harsher, almost swallowing the piano notes. Another string drone swells to finish. Introspective, melancholy and reflective, suiting a moment of pause, reflecting on the past and contemplating the future. Suitable for thoughtful ending in a TV/Doc.

w/ synths: Added other-wordly synth drones and wonky sustained synth lines, giving an off-kilter edge.

w/ strings: Regal orchestral string arrangement on top of piano melody from the start, string lines intersecting in a looping counterpoint.

Deadline Eclipse

Tense minimal piano is joined by solo acoustic guitar over a background of Steve Reich-like pulses, building to a positive section of wonder and serenity. After a held section the piece moves to a foreboding ending. Perfect for film.

Theme 6 O Kepler

Contemplative acoustic guitar and piano track. Gently strummed guitar with sparse piano melody. Soft, thoughtful and wistful, would suit a reflective TV scene, a character soul-searching and wandering empty streets.

Trix

Delicate electronics, sustained synth, magical atmospheric sound effects and reverb-laden electric guitar. Female vocal melody, sparse, heartfelt and breathy. Senusual and romantic with hip hop beats and bleepy samples and subtle operatic vocals. Peaceful and sincere, perfect for a introspective TV scene.

Self Severed

Female vocal track. Hang drum beat, low female vocal, emotive and melodic. Gentle guitar creeps in, adding brightness and a tinge of hope. Instrumental section with strings and more complex drums and grungey guitar section before a quiet, reflective vocal ending. 90s, sentimental and romantic. Imagine this in Dawson’s Creek, Dawson and Joey, alone in their rooms, each day dreaming of the other.

Reflective Guitar Solo

Lyrical, expressive guitar track. Solo guitar finger-picking a folk-style melody. Warm and soothing, suitable for a health advert or a reflective onscreen moment.

Deadline Ships

Atmospheric acoustic guitar track with gentle percussion and orchestral strings. Anticipatory, sombre but hopeful, with an Autumnal feel.
