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.

Gang Ish

Dark hip hop with gunshot samples. Bleepy synth intro with effects, a foreboding piano riff then a break. Beats build to a deep, punchy, bass synth melody. Piano returns, more beats and gunshot samples. Threatening, tense and frightening, a seemingly bouncy track with a dark underbelly, would suit topical, crime documentaries or content.

Dangerous

Dreamy synths under hip hop beats with helium vocal samples. Male vocal samples interspersed with child-like vox, like Sampha in a tender duet with a chipmunk. Laid back beats and rippling piano chords keep it chilled. Thoughtful, gentle and soft in contrast with the chunky beats. Would suit emotional or tongue-in-cheek content.

Cosa Nostra

Dark trap. Bell-like keyboard motif builds mystery and tension. Rattling, unsettling chords reiterate the creepy melody before a syncopated Latin-style beat and hi-hat trap beat grounds the track. Quiet moments with the eerie distant sounds of thunder and rain like a bad omen. Uneasy and tense with a sense of foreboding, like a trap Twin Peaks soundtrack, perfect for dark TV show where danger is around every corner.

The Slip Up

Irish-Cretan slip-jig. Fusion of Irish and Cretan styles, Irish slip jig form played on saz (stringed instrument like an oud or mandolin), Cretan lyra and bendir percussion lending an Eastern Mediterranean and modal Arabic sound to the uptempo dance tune. Mysterious, tense and energetic; a curious, lively dance of different cultures with a singular, hypnotic sound.
