Sorry

Melancholy trap with orchestral strings. Sombre piano chord intro, trap beats drop. Woozy bass synth unsettles. Flickering beats, breathy vocal samples and austere orchestral strings add complexity. Determined and driven yet slightly sentimental, perfect for the reflective aftermath of a bittersweet and decisive onscreen moment; don’t look back as you walk away.

Glasshouse Studies I

Emotional piano track. Melancholy piano melody with sparse chords. Warm, comforting woodwind joins on countermelody, bringing hope and a glimmer of sunshine. Sentimental, contemplative and brooding, perfect for a subtly heartfelt advert or emotive charity video piece.

Change Tense (Suite)

Upbeat synthpop instrumental with piano. Arpeggiated, propulsive synths drive the track forward with thoughtful piano chords on top giving a sentimental feel. Expansive, positive and hopeful, perfect electronic pop for a decisive TV scene or quietly victorious and emotional ending.

Tranquility

Dreamy synth track. Muted 80s synths, soft and washed out, over more synths. Builds with added vocal-like synths playing with Twin Peaks-esque acid sweetness. Melodic, sentimental and cheesy, perfect for a pastiche of dramatic daytime TV or for a emotional Christmas advert.

Sleepy Lullaby

Gentle piano and glockenspiel lullaby. Slow-paced, shifting broken piano chords accompanied by piano and glockenspiel softly playing a simple, childlike melody. Soothing, calming, loving and warm, would suit an advert for something that will safeguard your loved ones, allowing you to rest easy, or a sentimental TV show about cute kids or beloved pets.

‘Underscore’ version features gentle broken chords only, slightly 80s feel.

I Still Carry A Torch for You

Sentimental country slide guitar track. Emotional electric guitar, gentle slide guitar, easy-going piano and lyrical violin with soft drums. Nostalgic, warm and soothing, suitable for a comforting advert for wholesome American-style goods, or as background music evoking the good ol’ days when times were bad.

First Light

Sentimental acoustic guitar track. Ever-shifting broken chord progressions on warm acoustic guitar. Rich and golden, sparse but full, intimate yet expansive, suitable for both epic TV/Film/advert moments as our gaze sweeps over a vast landscape, and moments of soul-searching and resolve.

Riviera Swing

Melancholic with a playful edge, with honest acoustic guitars and a piercing violin performance that create a nice tune with a middle/southern European feeling. Will play well both in slightly over the top romantic comedies and generally in applications where a classy yet stereotypical representation of romance is needed.

Windswept

Emotional and delicate, a pianoforte performance that makes sapient use of harmonics and arpeggio technique to deliver a poignant yet firm episode of music. It builds a substantial amount of emotional content without never being too blatant or showy. This would suit romantic dramas and similar applications, possibly where a solo character is involved.

Girl from Sandymount beach

Delicate and touching, with a gentle piano performance and an acoustic guitar that make for a tender impression in the vein of melancholic comedies but also period dramas. An acoustic guitar introduces us to the theme in the first 20 seconds, creating the space in the middle part for a grand piano to complement the scene. Towards the end of the piece the latter is protagonist and uses both hands to fulfil the arrangement.
