Soft bell-like marimba / glockenspiel is joined by emotive classical guitar, percussion and bass. Beautiful, rich, organic and hopeful. Quietly inspiring with glimpses of sadness and a strong happy end.

The Happy and the Sad
Sweet, light and innocent plucked strings are joined by synth bass and kalimba. Happy and wistful.
Kerugugs Homecoming
Comic high-drama, toybox symphony. An epiphanic moment. Bagpuss and co. get back home after stopping an asteroid colliding with the earth. Or something. Mega-silly symphony of kazoo, voice and accordion.
A Favourite Place of Mine
Metal xylophones, evocative of memories and times gone by, with (later) hip-hop-esque percussion patterns.
The Waiting Room
Light acoustic guitar arpeggios with soft background piano. Hopeful and poignant, with a positive ending.
Do it for the Kids
Young, celebratory, motivated and proud. Ukelele and percussion with pizzicato strings and glockenspiel develops into light orchestral movements with solo cello. Hopeful piano interlude with clock ticking sound then big finale. Medium pace.
Us Poor Kids (Suite)
Expansive, thoughtful and evocative. Piano, guitar and strings with radio waves.
Ripples in a Water Scene
Meditative, flowing and floating piano with acoustic guitar and ghostly guitar effects. Building, driving and emotional, suitable for determined adverts and pensive TV/Film scenes.
Enter Atari
Quirky 80s synth track with 8 bit video game vibes and bouncy beats. Fast, fun and fizzling with energy, suitable for a playful, upbeat advert or kids TV interlude.
For All The Children (Part 3)
Dramatic, hopeful piano and orchestral string track. Warm, expressive orchestral strings soar over undulating piano arpeggios imitating a lifeboat on rough seas. Conflicted, yearning and sombre with a ray of comforting hope, perfect for romantic period dramas.
