Hip hop with electric guitar fuzz. Scuzzy 90s electric guitar over deep, bassy hip hop beats with distant vocal samples. Rough and ready, brash and bold, 90s swagger, Nirvana meets a banging hip hop beat, perfect for risk-taking content, bold documentary film and TV drama.

Little Green
Violin instrumental in waltz time. Two violins play an Irish-style repeated folk melody, intertwining, bowing with a rough and ready quality. Plaintive, melancholy and mesmeric, a fusion of Irish and Middle Eastern tonality, perfect for a documentary about either part of the world, or a hypnotic onscreen dance of cultures.
Naked Truth Instrumental (Rock Version)
All-out rock ‘n’ roll stomper. Full electric guitar, bass and drums pounding from the get-go. 90s-style guitar effects, grungy and rough around the edges, with an overall highly produced sound. Heavy and driven, determined and angry, perfect for a tense, nail-biting TV scene, as background music on a dramatic reality TV show, or if Jane’s Addiction soundtracked an advert for a frighteningly good burger.
Fired Up
Upbeat indie rock instrumental. Introductory electric guitar riff, followed by energetic, pounding drums. A sharp stop and then a new section. Melodic bass lines and a rough, punky guitar sound bring to mind The Clash, but are closer in mood and feeling to Naughties British indie pop/rock like Artic Monkeys. Fun, youthful and jaunty with a heavier edge, perfect chase music, for bright, high-octane adverts or TV/Film montages where all the action happens.
No Guitar and No Drums versions available.
Into the Cage
Unsettling and dissonant, with an interesting low-fi accent and a set of disquieting piano chords that establish a loaded texture full of pollution and grittiness. Will suit quirky characters slowly drifting into madness, post-apocalyptic settings, dark underwater animations.
