Heavy

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.

Retro Chic

Glamorous upbeat lounge track with electric guitars. Cheesy synth intro joined by seductive bass and sultry drums. Effects-laden electric guitars play a melodic motif on top, in contrast with the smooth bass. Chilled, peaceful and sensual, feels like being at a beach bar in Ibiza. Also perfect for TV sports coverage or a stylish advert.

Dreams

Chilled, sultry R’n’B. Bright, warm jazzy piano chord samples introduce a laid back beat. Mid-section pauses for calm with rain and thunder samples and sparse chords. A punchy string section with Latin vibes, sensual bass line and 80s electric guitar bring a surprising change. Finishes like a lullaby with gentle strings, soft beats and the warm scratch of vinyl. Retro and nostalgic with a fresh sound, perfect 80s Hip Hop/R’n’B throwback to add warmth and Nuyorican Soul to a TV scene or edgy documentary.

Jump Off

Sultry R’n’B. Muted synths expanding and contracting like a flexing muscle, warped and full of anticipation. Breathy female vocal samples and laid back trap beats complete the track. Murky and dreamlike with an hard, technological edge, would suit a cutting edge advert or a sombre TV scene.

Come Through

Downbeat electronic RnB track. Warm piano chord progression, muted, syncopated beats, vocal samples and dreamy reverb build a sultry, expectant atmosphere. Trap beats and breathy Enya-like female vocals added. Warm, fat, nostalgic synths join with electric guitar flourishes cutting through the haze. Cool, clear synth like water droplets takes on the chord progression before a full ending. Romantic, nostalgic and hopeful, like if the Drive soundtrack was a bit more RnB. A subtly determined soundscape, perfect for pensive and decisive TV/Film/Doc moments, ultimately leaving the past behind.

These Waters Remember Part 1

Acoustic guitar track with female vocals. Slow intro of plucked, Spanish-style guitar with atmospheric reverb. Grows more fast-paced. Ethereal female vocals introduced at end. Sultry, mysterious and slightly melancholy, would suit a shot panning an arid landscape, or a strange romance on TV/Film, anticipation, lust and confusion in the desert.

Late Night Rendezvous

Sultry late night jazz. Skulking double bass, romantic celeste melody, lazy, loping jazz drums. Smooth saxophone solos over the laid back foundation. Moody, seductive, late night jazz, would suit a slow-paced advert or retro, nostalgic TV/Film scene where our characters’ eyes meet across a half-empty bar…a lovesick detective and a sassy divorcee…both tired and jaded…but have they given up on love?

Bed track features Drums and Double Bass Only.

La Presencia de la Noche

Breezy latin jazz on electric guitar, bass and drums. Guitar sets the tone with moody broken chords, a pause, jazz drums, double bass and a catchy guitar riff enter, playing cool, seductive chorus/verse melody with a bossa nova feel. An almost psychedelic guitar solo explores the fretboard, grounded by jazz drums. Intense guitar, double bass riffs and busier drums add anticipation, before the original motif returns for the finale. Sultry, sexy, hot and passionate. Conjuring multiple genres and lands- travels through South America, adverts for laid-back holidays, or scenes of romance on a hot summer’s night.

Farewell Lionhead

Solo jazz piano. Thoughtful, slow-paced jazz piano chords, old-fashioned jazz meandering, feeling semi-improvised with passages resolving on sweet chords or questioning chord clusters. Melancholy, pensive and full of longing, would suit a classic film scene, a lĂ  Casablanca, lonely hearts gaze into their whisky sodas…nobody understands like the piano player.

Visiting Laila

Solo piano. Jazz chords straight out of a classic movie scene set in a smoky cavernous jazz club. Slow chordal movement at first, sweet and lyrical, moves to a confused romantic motif with some dissonance, chords grow in volume and intensity, a declaration of love. Back to the introductory chords, more relaxed now with hints of unsettling dissonance. Romantic, confused and reckless, a love letter to early jazz, on Film/TV, would suit a La La Land style, modern interpretation of heady jazz-age love.
