Bassy synth track. Deep bassy synth, bleepy synth lines and dynamic syncopated, dancehall-beats create a deep underwater groove. Insistent, edgy and full of anticipation, like a ticking clock, would suit a short investigative documentary segment, or podcast soundtrack.

Underwater Theme 01
Bloopy synth track with deep underwater bass. Soft, hazy synth lines over repeated bloopy synth melody, reverb effects, and subtle, drum roll-like beats. Downbeat, nostalgic and mysterious, with a hint of danger, would suit an investigative Vice or Vox-style documentary or TV segment. Also perfect for edgy TV scenes.
Demon Hunter
Hi-energy synth banger. Fast beats and high hats introduce a bass-heavy synth riff. Vocal samples and frantic synths build to a massive, crunchy bass drop. Fat, flashy synths call-and-answer, competing for space. Expansive synth section like Mario Kart’s rainbow road before another wonky bass drop with slow, skewed beats. Final section is a slow synth strut. Big, bouncy, colourful and positive with a bit of crazy thrown in, would suit a reality show montage or bright and shiny pop culture documentary.
Ringworld Interlude
Expansive synth track. Broad enveloping synths wash across the soundscape like the beam of a lighthouse. Followed by a James Bond theme-style foghorn blast. Dreamy, mysterious and melancholy, an uncertain sound to suit a thrilling podcast or hard-hitting, factual, anxiety-inducing documentary.
Point of Departure
Sparse synth-heavy track. Fast, bloopy, arpeggiated synths ascending, overlapping, building and falling. Frantic, energetic and hopeful, would suit a youth documentary or edgy content.
Bag
Minimal trap. Cold synth melody over male vocal sample, first high-pitched, then repeated in a low register. Sparse beat drops. Quicker hi-hat beat added with finger-snap style beat. Dark, edgy and cool, perfect for an atmospheric advert for streetwear or a documentary about youth culture or TV drama.
Akira Complex
Bold, upbeat synthpop instrumental. Minimal piano intro before excitement-building arpeggiated synths and big, bold synth whooshes. Minimal synth section leads to energetic, euphoric build and beat drop. Heavy, chunky beats, crunchy sound effects and cute bubblegum synths explode like fireworks. Drops and builds again. High-octane, exhilarating and life-affirming, a contemporary mix of brash and kawaii sounds, perfect for fashion content or colourful, youthful documentaries and aspirational Love Island-style reality TV.
Gang Ish
Dark hip hop with gunshot samples. Bleepy synth intro with effects, a foreboding piano riff then a break. Beats build to a deep, punchy, bass synth melody. Piano returns, more beats and gunshot samples. Threatening, tense and frightening, a seemingly bouncy track with a dark underbelly, would suit topical, crime documentaries or content.
Dangerous
Dreamy synths under hip hop beats with helium vocal samples. Male vocal samples interspersed with child-like vox, like Sampha in a tender duet with a chipmunk. Laid back beats and rippling piano chords keep it chilled. Thoughtful, gentle and soft in contrast with the chunky beats. Would suit emotional or tongue-in-cheek content.
Say It
Laid back hip hop/R’n’B track. Woozy synths and vocal samples, warm and breezy, melodic chord progression with chill 90s beats. Dreamy synths throughout, blissful and immersive. Calm, beautiful and reassuring, the musical equivalent of an epic sunset over a hazy ocean, soulful synthy hip hop to suit the most laid back advert or self-assured content.
