Exotic and exciting cinematic track with elements and influence from eastern music

Hollow and desperate piano instrumental, epitomising loneliness and helplessness. Slow, methodical piano meanders throughout, searching for a theme, enhanced by electro sound design elements that reinforce the sound of empty space. Not a piece that's going to brighten your day, unless you've been searching for the perfect accompaniment to your solitude and loss of hope.

Powerful orchestral hybrid mix of action and suspense. A driving beat and electric guitar power chords get the full, dramatic orchestra treatment to create a rich sounding cinematic theme. Sweeping legato strings and stabbing brass create the main melodies, with a menacing progression that regularly levels up on the intensity through key modulations. Energetic, confrontational and tense.

Downtempo post-rock track with a cinematic/TV feel. Gently building tension through layering themes, starting with simple piano and adding textures, bass, drums and electric guitar, it never gets overly dramatic, instead choosing a subtler psychological intensity to evoke its message of cool, calculated and deliberate determination.

Rich, brooding soundscape of ambient guitar, strings and drones. Deeply atmospheric and haunting, with a serene calmness, it floats effortlessly through the mind, gradually building in intensity as the lows slowly but surely swallow it up. An ethereal aural treat.

Background horror soundscape incorporating orchestral clusters and swarms, choral effects and various textures in order to create a tense atmosphere. Also using slow building risers and hits makes this more than just an ambient piece, giving a useable, more diverse track to match visuals to. Dark and agitated, perfect for horror, suspense and thriller genres.

Orchestral track on a voyage of discovery, where the unexpected could be lurking around each corner. String ostinato keeps up the momentum while meandering and tense melodies from violins and choir search out a path to follow. Brass swells and rich horn and trombone lines add gravitas to an already dark and brooding atmosphere, forming a track that is steady paced but never really settled. Intriguing.

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.

A driving, funk jazz track. All the classic ingredients are on show: wah wah guitar, steady keyboard chords, stabbing brass section, silky strings, expansive percussion....but the real funk drive comes from the bouncing bass line giving the piece its identity right from the start so you're in no doubt what's coming, and it doesn't disappoint. A real lively slice of retro funk with exquisite attention to detail that's as cool as it is authentic.

Atmospheric hybrid track with a psychological edge. Making good use of cutting synth and string themes for suspense, and a deep, pulsing beat for tension and movement, there remains space for a piano melody to add progressive interest with a deliberately vague and ambiguous feel. An overall steady and tense piece that creates a mysterious, thrilling landscape.

Atmospheric and rhythmic pop rock. Using a melodic piano theme as the central hook, and continuously enhancing it with percussion, bass, electric guitars and synth pads, the piece builds in intensity and energy to create a dramatic mid-tempo background track that captures a spirit of determination, motivation and suspense, contrasting a slightly dark, cinematic side with a more heroic one.

Powerful orchestral track, energised by jagged rhythms, varied dynamics, and pounding percussion. All the elements of an action epic are here: string ostinato, percussive hits, brass swells, legato string themes, interjecting woodwind runs, and more. Lots of ebb and flow as the music skilfully grows in intensity, only to drop and reset for another hit, creating a piece that is dramatic, adventurous and full of suspense.

A heart-pounding orchestral thriller featuring african percussion, tribal chants and epic string performances

Edgy orchestral track. Starting with a fast moving string theme and percussion, deep chimes ring in the ominous dread approaching. Building in intensity, and dropping out, become able suspense techniques throughout, as does contrasting the doom with light playful passages on strings, woodwinds or xylophone. Slurred legato violins apply textured expression and rich brass adds an aggressive feel to create a dramatic, mysterious and epic composition.

Mysterious trap/hip-hop track with pulsing bass and beat

Tense and intriguing solo violin piece backed by string ensemble. Huge portamento leaps, trills and atonal leanings mix to generate a beautiful but mysterious mood - ambiguous yet soothing, curious yet stable, it's an evocative siren's call full of emotion.

Futuristic and apocalyptic track. After starting with a pulsing, time-ticking build up to generate tension and a suffocating intensity, the pounding industrial percussion, screaming synth leads and grinding sub bass are let loose to fry your brain. Staggered and disruptive throughout but somehow generating an underlying rhythmic stability, it's certainly an effect rather than a melody.

Soothing but mysterious orchestral track. Arpeggiated piano and strings start classically, but a theremin lead takes things to an unexpected level of mystical contrast. Elegance and majesty is constant due to the warm orchestration throughout, with a deliberate unease and suspense created by the unusual instrumentation and melodies.  

Panic and run, or stay focused and calculated? That's your dilemma here as the clock ticks on, generating a cinematic soundscape of tension and suspense, building to a crescendo of deep, dark industrial impacts, sub drops and warps. An ever building, reverb soaked swarm of cavernous time pressure in rhythmic and musical form.  

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.
