Ghost in the Machine

Posted on May 19, 2018 by Music Supervisor

Ambient, uplifting guitar track with electronic and orchestral elements. Woodwind intro like a call to the wind. Atmospheric, bleepy electronics seep in, joined by heavily effects-laden electric guitar cutting through the dreamy atmosphere. Horns and woodwind add to the growing soundscape. Incongruous electronics and spacey synths add off-kilter interest. Woozy, peaceful and meditative, a hopeful, enveloping atmosphere suited to TV Drama, inspiring documentaries or epic adverts.

Sparkling synthpop. Delicate beats, funky muted bass line and shimmering sweeping spacey synths. Atmospheric, ambient and hopeful, calm yet fun, perfect positive background music for a chilled advert or a reality TV show where robots go to Ibiza to find love.

Eclipse

Posted on April 25, 2018 by Music Supervisor

Breezy electronic track. Fat 90s synths ring out over a steady dance beat. Tinkling electronic effects create texture, the pitch moves up and discords ring out. Counter melody on synth and bouncier beats bring a laid back energy. Fun, chilled and happy, a stress-free 90s throwback, kind of cheesy but fun, a sophisticated Vengaboys meets Pet Shop Boys.

A New Dawn

Posted on April 25, 2018 by Music Supervisor

Uplifting acoustic guitar-based instrumental. Strummed acoustic guitar with hopeful sustained orchestral string lines above. Builds in warmth and texture, added guitar and strings swells, ending on gentle guitar. Moving, happy and quietly epic, a contained emotional build to suit a romantic or revelatory moment onscreen.

It’s Just What I Think

Posted on April 24, 2018 by Music Supervisor

Nostalgic soundtrack to kids playtime. Naive intro on warm, retro keys. Joined by sound effects, tinkling cans and crunching paper. Vocal ‘Ooohs’ enter with uplifting drums, interrupted by spoken word samples. A steady drum beat, keys and percussive tin can groove settles in, sounding like a microscopic recording of ants in work in the backyard. A new synth-led section brings fantasy, twinkling lights and gurgling sound effects, before a return to the melody with added percussive effects. Innocent, hopeful and nostalgic, suitable for a heartwarming advert looking at families, kids and the joys of childhood.

Latina Natural

Posted on April 10, 2018 by Music Supervisor

Gentle, beautiful Spanish guitar track. Wistful broken acoustic guitar chords, repeated an octave higher. Track builds with added strummed guitar and brighter melodic phrases. Warm, sweet and colourful. Red, orange and gold, like a summer sunset in a rural Spanish village, with a nod to the Wild West. Perfect for a seductive advert for Stella Artois, or a reflective film sequence.

The Journey

Posted on April 3, 2018 by Music Supervisor

Immersive synth track. Arpeggiated bouncy beats and glistening, anticipatory synth chords ring out over a whooshing bed of warm synths. Driven, determined and quietly epic, perfect Chariots of Fire-style tension-building music before a cheesy, triumphant victory.

The Birds The Birds

Posted on April 2, 2018 by Music Supervisor

Strange pastoral orchestral string and brass instrumental. Atmospheric drones and fleeting effects-laden brass builds in a slow anticipatory swoosh to a quiet string melody with accompanying orchestral strings. Quick repetitive prog synth chords subtle build tension underneath the otherwise sorrowful melody. Dramatic, suspenseful and strange, an exciting build that ends at it’s peak. An unusual instrumental to suit a quirky TV show, psychedelic film soundtrack or mind-expanding documentary.

Otto

Posted on March 30, 2018 by Music Supervisor

Atmospheric 80s-style synthscape. Broken, questioning synth chords, like something out of Twin Peaks, seeming calm but building tension with shifting chords. Later added electric guitar, electronic sound effects and sparkling synths lines. Mysterious, unsettling and yet peaceful at times, lulling you in to a false sense of security. Suitable for melodramatic Film/TV moments, or a cheesy advert parodying this.
