Flashy EDM. Uplifting synth chord intro, joined by anticipatory trap beats and a female vocal sample. Shouty vocal samples over a fast, vinyl-scratching build. Drops a laid back dancehall beat over fat trancey synth chords. Sparse trap beat section with vox samples and percussive synth. Build, drop, repeat. Summery, fun and chilled, with an edge, suitable for pop culture-related documentaries, reality TV, idents or street fashion advertising.

Life
Balearic EDM. Modulating synth intro, light beats join. Fat synth added before a trance section. Heavy EDM build before a drop to wonky synths, fat, brash synth lines and trap beats. Builds again to a groovy, slightly disco section. Another euphoric build to the end. Upbeat, urban and slightly dark, suited to an aspirational fashion advert aimed at pretty young things, or a thrilling advert for a TV show or nail-biting sports coverage.
Lights Camera Action LCA
Light synth banger. Punchy, sparse synth chords introduce a 90s synth line with glassy synths washes creating atmosphere. Brash synth chords over a variation on the melodic riff with a throbbing kick drum beat beneath. A new layer of high register synth line takes things up a notch, shuffling beats add a dance flavour. More variations on the melody, drums kick in again, then an abrupt stop. Positive, hopeful and determined, driving beats to suit a reality TV challenge or slightly cheesy advert for a modern product.
Tickety Tock
Tense, percussive electronic track. High-tension, high-pitched, high-speed cowbell beats over sparse pounding drums and fleeting percussive and electronic effects. A trance synth beat takes things down before piano chords introduce a hyperactive finale. Nerve-wracking, exciting and full of anticipation, a nail-biting percussive race with Balearic House vibes, suitable for a any TV/Film/Advert scene where the heat is on and the clock is ticking.
Kin
Calm and contemplative, with hypnotic pianos and smooth electronic loops that make clever use of sound design techniques to bring a futuristic flavour to the table. Will suit emotionally charged scenes seasoned with synthetic fragmentations.
Pathways
Hypnotic with a dissonant edge, featuring an upright piano, acoustic guitar-led arpeggios and a strings section. There is an interesting combination of a delicate and playful mood with disturbing inserts of harmonic madness, mainly given by the piano. Great fit for scenes where your audience needs to know that something in our character is starting to drift.
Death Is a She Named Barsheen
Groovy and suspenseful, with alluring mystical vocals and a dark progressive synth-led rhythmical pattern that evoke exotic worlds caged in a first period Massive Attack-like tune. Structured in three parts, it builds up to 1:30 and then delivers a minute of aggressiveness led by a gritty electric guitar. Wonderful as background and title sequences for futuristic, dystopian and ancient/exotic settings.
Secluded Blue
Suspenseful and hypnotic, featuring synth loops and acid arpeggios that bring a sense of dark and unsettling emotional content to the listener. Complemented by a slightly retro and mildly epic progression in the last part.
