Warm and sincere, an ambient episode with traces of tender melancholic elements. Emotional acoustic arpeggios and evocative solos of trumpet and acoustic guitar create a wonderful sense of longing in space and time. As the title suggests, there is indeed a south American edge here, but definitely more in a calm-sunset-on-a-beach sausade way than carnival party time.

Goodnight
Peaceful and bright, with a confident yet tender acoustic guitar and delicate piano inserts that build a relaxing and mellow episode of music. It gains strength and develops harmonically in the last 30 seconds. A bass guitar helps to deliver an effective coda that will suit the end of a cinematic sequence or advertising pieces.
Mirrors
Calm and repetitive, with a sentimental reverberated piano and a light touched glockenspiel that take us around for one of those long and longing Sunday afternoons. It’s cold but also strangely hopeful. A natural complement for your broken characters, the ones that never know where to look for a glimpse of deserved tranquillity and happiness.
Letting You Win
Energetic with a modern feeling, featuring a compelling mix of electro synths and pop-rock instrumentation that deliver a perfect combo of inspirational coolness without getting too much in the way. Reminds a lesser version of some Coldplay hits. Ideal for bouncy corporate and inspirational videos.
Kin
Calm and contemplative, with hypnotic pianos and smooth electronic loops that make clever use of sound design techniques to bring a futuristic flavour to the table. Will suit emotionally charged scenes seasoned with synthetic fragmentations.
Haunt
Experimental and spooky, with processed layers of electronics and chunks of instrumental loops that evoke an unsettling but overall soothing feeling. It touches that sweet spot of music and sound design. Out in the ocean, dolphins on a trippy underwater journey.
Future Folk
Quirky and ethereal, with gritty bass synths and dreamy bells that create a playful but weird succession of chords. It is tender and mellow but also slightly unsettling. Synthetic flavour that would lead to generative music domains. A baby robot tentatively takes its first steps into a foreign world.
You Might Miss Love
Really beautiful, delicate and nostalgic, featuring aching solo strings and an emotionally compelling piano that creates heartache, anticipation and finally peace. Would suit emotional scenes or moments of reflection. “Emily knew, as she walked through the house for the last time, that for now at least, she was free to love again”.
Pathways
Hypnotic with a dissonant edge, featuring an upright piano, acoustic guitar-led arpeggios and a strings section. There is an interesting combination of a delicate and playful mood with disturbing inserts of harmonic madness, mainly given by the piano. Great fit for scenes where your audience needs to know that something in our character is starting to drift.
Gentle Struggles
Melancholic and intimate, featuring a dreamy figure of glockenspiel notes and a light arrangement driven by a piano and a small orchestra. A flute takes over the theme at 1:40 and presents us to a final section slightly more rhythmical with pizzicato strings and playful woodwinds. Great for scenes with a nostalgic and tender yet hopeful feeling.
