Babylon

Groovy and modern, with a confident bass line and a classy electric guitar that mix in-your-face raggae elements with dub and dance rhythms. A-B-A-B structure with “anticipation moments” at 2:00 and 3:30. Resumes a definite funky vibe toward the end using also an interesting wobbly effect.

If You Were Mine

Jazz piano solo. Relaxed jazz chords, sparse and measured. A tense repeated phrase leads to a pensive, sombre melody with hints of hope from high piano notes. A meandering improv-like melody deviates from the original chords progression before a quiet, content ending. Thoughtful, intense and reflective, a moody piano number perfect for a the heightened tension of a romantic love scene. Two star-crossed lovers on separate paths through rain soaked streets. One in Paris, the city of lights, the other in Woody Allen’s New York…will their paths ever meet again?

In the Dead of the Night

Pensive and somber, with an overarching negative mood given by bassy orchestral drones and subtle electronics. The middle section features a poignant counterpoint between a cello and an oboe. A sparse and saturnine sense of the inevitable leaning to Hollywood style romance stories.

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.

Island Groove

Bouncy and off episodic, with a low-fi accent made up of retro synths and gated reverbs. An interesting remainders of old video games such as Super Mario Bros and Zelda. Playful and quirky, it will follow your character as it tries to tentatively survive in a world full of giant mushrooms and sneaky turtles.
