Dramatic and powerful track, full of cinematic tension. To start, it's a soft piano creating an ambient, pensive mood, helped by solo cello and violin lines, by the end it's a brooding, dark drama piece backed by metronomic percussion, string shorts and rich brass for a full and dynamic sense of evolving dilemma and unravelling denouement.

Dramatic news headline music. Slightly intense, with an urgent rhythmic pace, it blends the modern digital world of busy synth themes with the classic professional and serious influences of the epic orchestra to prepare you for the ongoing journalistic values of the day.

Epic dubstep, creating a hybrid genre of cinematic orchestral power and contemporary, hard hitting beats. Building up from a steady paced intro of synth pulses and percussion with risers and textures, adding in the orchestral elements gradually hikes up the tension until it goes full on cinema mode with the grandest of themes, perfect for dramatic tension and trailers. A bold statement of majesty and positivity with a slightly dark, yet utterly confident overall feel.

Reaching beyond is the motto of this track. With uplifting harmonies and energizing piano patterns.

If I say 'pirates' and you think 'Caribbean', then we both know where this is heading. With more than a passing reference to a certain well-known theme, it's every bit as swashbuckling, unleashing the full power of a cinematic orchestra and its percussive ensemble. Having said that, it does have slightly less seafaring tendencies and could easily lend itself to many other action settings from thrillers to adventure scenes, given its generally sterner feel. Epic stuff.

The title says 'News', but in truth, it's more than that. It certainly has a current affairs/political theme running through it, with its grand orchestral hits, tension-building ascensions, string ostinato, tremolo, percussive chimes and brass swells, but capturing such a cinematic dynamic opens it up to many other uses where a time-led intensity is required. Think James Bond on a deadline.  

Frantic, nervy, edgy - this is a real orchestral epic full of tension and 20th Century classical leanings. Making full use of textural string swarms, brass stabs and an underlying percussive accent, it manages to build to an action blockbuster feel, with dramatic mania from woodwind flurries and an overall dynamism that never settles. Very engaging and wonderfully executed.

Epic and cinematic track tinged with a sense of sorrow, regret and desperation. It remains a huge orchestral event, full of brass braams, powerful drums and rich strings, but there's always a sense of yearning in the chord progressions and themes, making for very distinct and specific trailer music.

Adrenalin fuelled cinematic track. A rhythmically charged intro of unison piano and string shorts flourishes into a gothic fantasy dance with subtly macabre overtones, featuring choral melodies and later, epic brass. Impacts and percussion drive the piece forward in a swirl of dramatic emotion, rising again through a key change to its conclusion. Darkly romantic with a playful vibe, it is an energetic, all action piece with a grandiose flair.

An uplifting, powerful cinematic piano solo with an orchestral string ensemble build-up

Magical orchestral track with a sense of adventure. A gentle, lilting start from the cor anglais grows into a more epic string theme, supported by brass and woodwinds until it finally breaks into the main motif - triumphant, romantic, grand and uplifting. A good mixture of string and woodwind shorts with sweeping string longs, and changes of pace and intensity help to keep the variety high throughout. Moods come and go, instruments fade in and out, but the winter romance is ever present.

Powerful instrumental with big tribal drums and triumphant melody

Epic symphonic track. Packed with action, intensity and a strong battle feel, it uses string ostinato and lots of snare percussion to generate a dramatic and, at times, chaotic ambience. Split into 2 halves to allow for a dynamic change and subsequent build up, the heroic brass adds tension thoughout under the screaming violins and relentless basses. Tense, bold and soaked in impending doom.

Fantasy adventure track. Using the complete orchestra to generate an organised chaos, this fast paced piece features themes from all directions - string runs, woodwind answering phrases, brass interjections and relentless percussion all combining to create a circus of sounds with a hint of the macabre. A whirlwind of symphonic fantasy.

An epic thriller theme with electrifying orchestral strings and heart pounding percussion

Adventurous medieval and cinematic orchestral track

Action/fantasy hybrid orchestral track. Fast, skittish passages contrast with sweeping legato for a dynamic and fast moving feel, further helped by a dramatic percussive beat. Highly charged and tense throughout, only pausing for breath at the midpoint and the outro, it sets a mysterious, nervous mood full of cinematic suspense.

Inspirational theme with a full cinematic hit. Starting with an Aboriginal flavour for a sense of vast, faraway lands, it's soon transformed into an epic orchestral piece, full of drama and tension through percussive hits, brass swells and string ostinato. Grand and majestic with an adventurous, action filled undertone, it also hits the inspirational and awesome buttons.

Mystical, orchestral epic, with an ethereal quality. Soothing choir and lush strings and pads start us off, with rich brass swelling to a gently pulsing section of strings and woodwinds as it builds to a more epic finale of fanfare brass and timpani rolls. No stand out melodies, but an overall feel of wonder and enlightenment in a gentle and majestic setting.

Powerful cinematic track with a hugely heroic flavour. Gently paced but dynamically progressive in building it's energy and emotion, the layering of string ostinato with strong brass melodies with driving percussion with risers and sweeps generates such an inspirational and uplifting vibe that you can't help but be moved. Massively strong and confident with a self assured majesty.
