Whilst most of us would reach for the nearest packet of painkillers in times of need, others might be tempted by a more sonic dose of cellular and sensory treatment. 174 Hz acts like energetic anaesthesia and is supposedly great for relieving a person from tension and pain, so this well targeted soundscape of minimalist electronic tones set in a cloud of ethereal ambience might be just the medication you need. Lie back, soak it in, and let yourself float to wherever you want.

If a robot could dream, and you could represent that dream in music, is this what it would sound like? Hypnotic, digital, slightly randomised and somewhat comforting - it's pure electronica featuring huge bass warps and filtered leads over a dubstep beat to evoke trance elements and an uncertain, almost neutral mood. Is it uplifting, happy, emotional or nostalgic? I'm not sure, but perhaps that's because I'm made of metal.

Epic and aggressive trailer music. Short and direct, you get big drum impacts boosted by distorted synth, developing into a warped and intense theme with accented string shorts. Cinematic and industrial with a powerful rhythmic beat, it's not going to fit with anything less than 'giant' on the awesome scale.

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.

Dark and suspenseful ambient track with piano and electronic elements

Rhythmic soundscape, built on synth pads, arpeggiated leads and warped textures. 16th note delay creates constant movement. Overall, a slightly eerie, brooding atmosphere.

Tranquil piano ambience with a deeply mysterious edge. It's a simple theme using delay and reverb for movement and space, given diversity through unexpected time changes and sprinkled with sound design elements. Definitely dark, but more in wonder and suspense than anything sinister ...... or is it?

Hyped up hard house meets shades of ska in a frenetic mix. A driving EDM beat and chirpy trumpet lead thrust us forward into a hypnotic and uncompromising dancefloor banger. Lots of synth stabs, arps and leads, off beat accents and the occasional breakdown to keep things varied, it's a relentless piece that's as curious as it is energetic. If 8 bit computer game music married EDM, this could well be the result.

A dark and brooding track of epic, cinematic menace. Mixing the deep tones of beating synths with the power of orchestral brass for a slow burning theme, the creeping doom draws closer with ever growing layers of strings and driving rhythms. A dramatic tension builder with something lurking in the shadows.

Indie pop rock song with a focus on extravagent vocals. With a retro garage feel, and at times mimimalist expression, the vocal harmonies and dynamics range from breathy whispers to pleading screams to attract your attention. Over a simple backbeat, clean and dirty guitars and a steady, melodic bass line, it's a quirky song about loving someone (or the denial of losing it) brave enough to use a whistle, glockenspiel and saxophone solo outro to reinforce the melodramatic qualitites. Upbeat in style yet slightly uncomfortable in mood, it's an authentic demonstration of frustrated angst and longing.

A playful and curious orchestral theme with tribal African percussion and orchestral string pizzicato hits

Dynamic solo drum beats. Energetic and a little bit funny.

Dark suspense track. With gothic overtones thanks to the choral themes and cinematic fantasy thanks to the repeated glockenspiel and piano motifs, the horror seeds are planted early on to generate the brooding atmosphere. With a deep, rolling bass line and booming percussion enhanced by synth drops, brass rasps and jagged strings, it soon becomes a nightmarish mix of ominous energy and overwhelming helplessness.

Ethereal and mysterious classical piece. Woodwinds accompany a celeste theme to open, followed by more diversity from the orchestra as the track unravels. Slow and creeping, creating suspense and wonder in equal measure, it's a simple yet well crafted work with a cinematic touch.

Trippy, dissonant mindscrew spanning the full stereo spectrum to leave your ears wondering what goes where. Simple, repeated piano motifs get layered with sub bass, sound design elements and rhythmic pulses to destabilise and agitate the natural flow of things, whilst somehow managing to stay coherent, albeit in a creepy, foreboding way. An unusual soft soundscape with momentum and tension.

Ambient soundscape. Drones, pads and filtered sounds combined with heavy reverb create a slow paced and mysterious atmosphere of isolation and wonder.

Industrial techno track. Very lively and beat driven, without being overly aggressive, the hits and impacts are enhanced by synth phrases and distorted electric guitar riffs, intended to create an overall landscape of power, industry and energy rather than a memorable melody. Unrelenting and tense dark electro.

Intense and terrifying cinematic theme, with creepy pads and synths, pulsating percussion and a sinister atmosphere. Creating a disturbing intensity with aggressive sirens and impacts, they give way to a softer, more psychological tension of synth melody and dark textures in this steady paced, truly atmospheric soundscape full of background subtlety and effects.

Epic dubstep using orchestral hybrid and electro elements. A slamming beat, keyboard stabs and synth sub bass lay the foundations for the epicness to grow - more animated leads, more strings and a huge sonic wave of big brass to really cement its place as a hard hitting, cinematic track full of action, tension and cutting drama.

A hard hitting, cinematic powerhouse of a track - epic in nature but with an added dissonance to turn the feeling away from the usual majesty and heroism and towards the unnerving, foreboding and impending aggression. Massive drum hits, solid brass punches and a relentless synth bass pulse converge with ever growing marcato strings to develop into a solid paced expression of force.
