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”.

Before My Time is Done

Hypnotic and earthy, with soft percussive elements, acoustic guitars and a mellow leading fiddle that take us into world/folk territories without being too flashy. Sounds like venturing into the wild unknown but you have all your marbles with you and you know what your are doing. See, if only Leonardo had this music in The Revenant, he wouldn’t have been molested by a bear.

X2Y

Dark and slow burning, featuring hypnotic synth arpeggios and mystical choirs that develop in a full grand orchestral hybrid arrangement in the second part. Builds up steadily till 1:50 and then steps up with brass instruments. Great fit for big epic film scoring and otherworldly, mystical characterisations. Flash Gordon would love this.

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.

Contemplative and poignant, featuring an ethereal yet moving piano solo figure complemented in the last section by a mellow strings section. Ideal for emotional advertising, romantic movie scenes, and end title sequences.

Melancholia

Ethereal and alluring, with dissonant injections of strings and a seductive intro that steadily grows both in intensity and instrumentation. Several counterpoints and variations caged in a medium-big orchestral arrangement ideal for sad and melancholic sequences.

Sad Infinity

Dreamy and delicate, featuring soothing woodwinds and a melancholic celeste that create a rarefied and nocturne sense of uneasy fascination. Ideal for alluring and seductive scenes with a dark and possibly supernatural edge.

Blue Star

Intensely sad but not lost in its entirety, with soothing background strings and a yearning dark violin solo theme that unravel otherworldly laments upon the inevitable realisation of an unbearable truth. Will suit emotional and melancholic scenes.
