Orchestral carnival theme with a sense of the macabre. Very animated, with all the instruments of the orchestra featured for a dynamic and at times, deliberately hectic and manic feel, it captures both the fun, comical side of the circus with the darker, more horror themed associations we've come to see on the big screen. Hauntingly enjoyable.

Contemporary orchestral piece with a cartoonish side. You know when you wake up, and everything seems OK until you look at the clock? Panic sets in as you hurry to catch up, with too much to do in not enough time. Here it is in musical form - bright, spritely passages followed by startling realisation and fast paced xylophone and string runs, all mixed up with a sense of urgency in a dramatic and dynamic composition featuring the whole orchestra.

A relaxing yoga meditation track with soft bell sounds and ambient background pads

Lively, fun and positive orchestral track with an uplifting melody

Skittish Dixieland jazz track, featuring all the usual players and a lead xylophone. A swinging drumbeat, bouncing double bass line, accentuated offbeat piano rhythms, solid brass ensemble - it's all here with an animated melody and really playful feel that perfectly enhances upbeat comedy and cartoon scenes.  

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.

A mystifying mix of styles, instruments and languages. Hypnotic and psychedelic in a trip hop style, with a cinematic arthouse flavour nodding to the bizarre, there is a constant progression and evolution that captivates and envelopes the listener. Using melodica melodies for an eerie fun, futuristic theremin for a sci-fi wierdness and random sound effects to unsettle, there's arpeggiated classical guitar and funk bass for a taste of the traditional familiar, as well as vibraphone, chimes, and piano to sprinkle their charm over the spectrum of diversity. Add in intimate and agonised vocals and you have the complete recipe for a journey into a weird and wonderful world.

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.

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.

Dark, atmospheric electronic track with deep bass and eerie pads - a menacing electro soundscape to invoke strange goings-on and other-wordly happenings. A strong retro synth vibe runs through it, using it's vintage tones and minimalist approach to generate an almost surreal ambience not of our time.

A downbeat suspense theme. Brushed drums and a falling piano sequence create a sense of longing, added strings and pads help to build the intensity. Solo cello subtly creates extra melancholy and nostalgia.

Rhythmically and musically diverse orchestral piece. Interesting to the point of experimentation due to the dissonances and jerky rhythms, it is inherently a classically inspired composition with 20th Century music influences. A sense of the bizarre mixed with battle drum percussion, you have fast, chaotic woodwinds interjecting with off beat brass stabs and a prominent choir echoing and mirroring the main themes. A strong military feel, with a mix of gothic darkness and mischeivous endeavour in a cinematic package.

Gothic orchestral romance at its fullest and darkest. Deep, rich tones from the legato strings, playful glockenspiel motifs and elegant, metronomic piano themes melt together in a swirling pot of mystery and suspense. Timpani hits and string shorts add drama, harp glissandi adds sparkle, chordal modulations add intrigue - and a final solo violin and piano section adds a touch of tragedy to complete the story. Deeply passionate and compelling.

A trippy, ethereal ambient background track with white noise and synth textures evoking a mysterious, uncertain mood

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.

Calm ambient guitar track. Heavily reverbed and delayed clean electric guitar laments over a soft bed of synth pads, bass and gently pushing kick drum and percussion while textures build tension all around. Lo-fi effects add an introspective feel, aided by the cinematically arthouse stylings for a track that is full of wonder and soothing tranquility.

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

Stylish take on a trap beat. Featuring a classic hip hop/trap beat, the instrumentation gives a more cinematic feel, with ambient, reverbed piano themes and orchestral string backing. It is the synth lead however that is the most prominent, as it interplays with the deep bass, chord stabs and vocal samples to create a mysterious sounding track, fresh and intriguing with a sense of curiosity.

Chilling, atmospheric underscore. A texturised vocal drone with added haunting elements such as musicbox, dissonance and harmonics create a dark and suspense filled soundscape. Changes in intensity keep you aware of the lurking presence.

Short, pulsing drone theme to conjure up dark and foreboding terrors - a dark, ambient soundscape built of layered synth textures and sprinkled with atmospheric, tension building effects.
