Dark and groovy, with a low-key drum machine beat and gritty inserts of synth and classical instruments that make for a mysterious and hypnotic ambient setting. Minimal and foreboding but not without a sense of humour, good for introspective and quirky scenes. We’re definitely waiting for something to happen.

Game Tension
Hypnotic and dark, with a dissonant edge given by atmospheric strings pads and a drony bass synth with percussion. There’s a simple harmony and a sense of anticipation built with a delicate yet firm manner. It will serve very well as background music for video games, and TV shows with a futuristic flavour.
Kafka Was Here
Catchy and playful, with Jazz elements such as alto sax, piano, contrabass and drums to deliver a smooth and swing feel. It follows an A-A-B-A structure and features solos by sax, piano and bass. Great for scoring comedies, adverts and as background music.
Curious New World
Alluring and delicate, featuring an arpeggiated celesta complemented by textures of airy synth pads and strings that bring the listener to a dreamy and contemplative state of mind. Great for otherworldly, magical and quirky characterisations.
Up and Down
Playful and quirky, featuring hopping strings nested in a modern orchestral setting that create lively dissonant ostinatos and spirited recurring themes.
Flute and Piano (suite)
Delicate yet unsettling, with a dissonant flute and a jaunty piano that deliver a strangely playful but darkish tone in the same vein as a contemporary classical music piece.
Bates Motel
Intense and dramatic, with intertwined strings fraseggi and rhythmical cello structures that give a dissonant sense of broken romance. Fingers pointed to early sixties Bernard Hermann scores, such as the ones for Hitchcock movies, albeit in a more darkish way.
Hipsty
Gritty hip hop and funky elements make for an energetic and cheap jingle-like short episode of compelling beats. An orchestral arrangement complements the scene and creates a 1 minute musical progression ideal for sport broadcasting and anything that requires a short and energetic interlude.
Blossom Fade
Intimate and inspirational, with compelling piano punctuated with high frequencies. It starts with a slightly melancholic accent, and then builds into hopeful and uplifting regions, helped by dreamy orchestral strings and percussive elements. This would have been perfect for Spirited Away
Animal Ride
Mysterious and magical, a stylish musical journey that makes use of a full orchestra and percussion. Somewhat dark and whimsical, with quirky strings and woodwinds, it will bond fantastically with your Disney-like playful, quirky and amusing characters.
