Caribbean-influenced instrumental. Steel drum melody over laid back reggae rhythms, warm keys, skanking electric guitar, and easy double bass. Chilled and calm with summer vibes, perfect for a summer advert or TV/Film background music in a tropical or Caribbean setting.
Toshiro

Smooth, chilled, relaxed, easy vintage Rocksteady sound, would suit TV/Film/Doc usage for warm, soothing scenes or for adverts for laid back summer plans.
DNA
Euphoric electronic dance track. Piano chord progression intro, beat enters building anticipation. More beats and vocal samples, breaks into Justice or Calvin Harris-style high pitch synth line with throbbing beats. Drops back to the piano before building again. Atmospheric, suspenseful and thoughtful before the brash, euphoric chorus. Evoking the feeling of a hedonistic summer festival, would suit an advert for a youth brand.
ily
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
