Solo Piano waltz. Swooning, swaying piano motifs, floating chord progressions and buoyant piano lines and a swell of solo piano over a waltzing rhythm. Earnest, emotional, searching, tender and, finally, determined. A journey across the sea surface and into the depths, would suit a TV/Film scene with heavy emotional impact or more intimate, soul-searching scenarios.
Spacey synth track. Arpeggiated robotic synth, blobby beats, steady drums, stellar synth sound effects. Futuristic, celestial and expansive, perfect Kraftwerk-style retro soundtrack to a fun documentary or a playful advert. The sound of the future, as imagined in the ’70s.
Catchy synth based electronic track. Punchy, crunchy beats, plucky guitar, melodic synth and bouncy bass. Determined, driven yet fun and summery, would suit an advert for an urban event or product or as background music for a youthful, upbeat documentary or film.
Electronic synth track with female vocal samples. Looped sample of a nonchalant female vocal, repeated percussive synth notes lay down the syncopated beat, subtle hi-hat, before a drop to a downbeat chunky synth section. Breaks into more expressive female vocal and upbeat wonky synth part before the original sample returns. Relaxed, summery, cool and romantic, would suit a visual featuring emotional milennials lying around, on their phones, waiting for those magic letters to appear…ily
Summery instrumental brass and keys track. Percussive intro, like a trap beat, joined by shimmering keys and jazz chords. Woozy effects with warm bass and smooth brass. Punchy brass section, off-kilter keys and percussion and bass solo. Blissed-out, warm, summery, upbeat but relaxed, would suit a retro Film/TV scene surveying a pool party or the hazy concrete streets of a neighbourhood block party.
Wistful solo jazz piano. A sustained note intro like raindrops followed by jazz chords, piano trills and a full melody. Pastoral, breathless and new, calling to mind the natural landscape, would suit a thoughtful film/doc/TV scene passing over a lush landscape refreshed and awake after a storm or a long winter.
Multi-instrumental version with warm strings, mellow saxophone and shuffling percussion joined by tinkling piano and a freak folk chorus of faraway voices, calling to mind Wickerman-style pagan England.
Solo jazz piano. Early jazz of the American South meets Tin Pan Alley with some Nuyorican soul, an opening chordal melody elaborated on through dynamic piano solos. Expansive, joyous, dizzy with the possibilities of the big city, would suit a film/doc/TV scene evoking a vibrant multicultural history.
Pensive solo piano waltz. Waltz rhythm to begin with with a mournful, romantic accompanying melody. Opens into an oom pah pah section with tinkling high piano notes before returning to the original wistful theme. Sombre and melancholy yet idealistic and romantic, European in style and mood, calling to mind French clowns with sad faces, this would suit a scene in a moody European film or a thoughtful documentary.
1 min loopable fragment of ambient electronica. Liquid synths imitating nature, a tropical rainforest of samples and a bubbling electronic stream. Dynamic and fresh yet calming, would suit a TV/Film scene set in a lush, intoxicating landscape or a dynamic corporate video.
Cute retro video game music. Fat synth arpeggios and high pitched synth intro before a head-bopping blobby synth and beat section with cutesy synth flourishes. Ridiculously, relentlessly happy and positive, 8-bit sunshine and rainbows, suitable for an upbeat advert for a fun event or product.
