Ethereal light orchestral piece for strings, piano and harp. Starting with a magical, fantasy feel through high legato strings and fast harp, it soon turns to a more mystical orchestration, melancholic cello becoming more prominent, and introducing a stately motif - something that is boldly developed into a majestic statement as the flow of the music unwinds. Peaceful and steady, while maintaining the grandeur and wonder of an unknown infinite universe, it's a gentle study of questions without answers.

A soft, mid paced orchestral track with a sombre side. A gentle, pulsating string and harp intro featuring solo viola, cello and oboe flourishes into life with string shorts, harp glissandi and orchestral runs before dying down again for the ending. Good use of the vibraphone creates a dreamlike quality to help set an intense, melancholic and nostalgic mood, tinged with a sense of reflection and regret.    

A soft, melancholic acoustic track, featuring guitar, piano and strings. Opening with arpeggiated guitar accompanying a simple, yearning melody, the piece plays on the theme as it builds with piano and eventually the legato strings to solidify the overall ambience of regret. Bittersweet in its mood, with lots of question/answer phrasing, the piece is a thoughtful study of a traumatised mind.

A soft, lilting orchestral track. Shades of mystery and discovery are evoked by the dark, mellow ethnic flute backed up by whistful, melancholic cello and oboe leads. A good underlying movement is created by soft percussion, string shorts and rolling arpeggiated piano as well as the phrasing of the music to create a piece of magical serenity, wonder and reassurance.    

Slightly melancholic song reflecting on the boundless aspirations we have when we're young, and how reality kicks in. Not that it dwells on it so much, leaving us with a mellow acoustic pop folk track featuring male vocals that musically lightens to an upbeat song with a hip feel. Tuneful, charismatic and well crafted.  

Cinematic piece, featuring piano and orchestra. A simple and traditional melancholic piano theme opens, juxtaposed by modern shrill electronic pulses to immediately give a sense of the unusual. It breaks into a lush orchestral theme with legato strings, rich brass and fast moving marimba, building in intensity to a majestic climax with fanfare brass and timpani hits. Not to last, it drops back to the orignial theme and calmer style to finish a piece that has a diverse landscape of emotions, evoking sadness, reflection, wonder and longing.

A melancholic piano and strings ambient track. In a perfect example of 'less is more', what you get is a tragically fragile and delicate piece of cinematic, reverbed piano woven with muted strings and harmonics. Isolation, yearning, loss, sorrow ..... it's dark in feeling but light in texture, expressing vulnerability with perhaps the slightest hint of optimism. Moody stuff indeed.

Hybrid orchestral track with a dark and melancholic feeling. The texture evolves, becoming more dense at the end.

A short, simple instrumental between piano and electric guitar. Emotionally sensitive and fragile, broken piano chords form the basis for the clean, reverbed guitar to lay its delicate melody over, making use of effects to create a smooth, atmospheric soundscape of gentle tenderness. Lilting, sensual and melancholic thoughout.

An absolute curiosity of a track. The minimalist beat is cool, diverse and easily relatable. And then there's the rest. Super chilled upright double bass plucks out the laziest of melodies, soon joined by a simple, melancholic acoustic guitar line and the vocal warblings of the world's only Arabic gospel singer. Very relaxed, totally innovative and definitely standout, I can't help but get Mexican funeral vibes with a neo jazz twist. But that's doesn't tell even half the story ....

Beautifully warm and clean acoustic folk ballad. The simplicity of just acoustic guitars and male vocals help the added harmonies shine through to generate an angelic lift to the sonic atmosphere. Melancholic and nostalgic without being overly sentimental, it's a tale of trying to get away and start over. Lyrically pleading and regretful, musically optimistic and determined.

Nostalgic folk pop track about time passing and wondering where the years have gone. A mixture of piano, electric and acoustic guitar, bass and drums form the backing to soulful male vocals. Melodic with great chorus harmonies, it has a really clean and bright production feel and great sense of gentle pacing. Melancholic, but not overly depressing.

A mellow, driving, acoustic song about going where life takes you. Gently rolling guitar, clean male vocals, smooth slide leads - all go together to create a really fresh track that continues to build through piano and brushed drums. Slightly melancholic, quietly optimistic, and with a hint of modern singer/songwriter about it, it's a well structured piece that just flows without fuss.

Solo piano track that manages to give off peaceful, relaxing vibes at the same time as sounding animated and playful. Very melodic, and masterfully mixes surprising major/minor progressions and rhythmic variations without upsetting the overall balance and tone of the piece. At times melancholic, at others triumphant, but always serene and atmospheric.

Emotional and inspiring cinematic track mixing calmness and reflection with intensity and tension. Serenity comes from gentle, unhurried piano chords, clean electric guitar phrases and deep, melancholic string sections. Juxtaposed by a fast repeating piano theme that adds an animated anxiety, you get a tale of two contrasting emotions that work perfectly together to push and pull you through this dramatic and elegant, yet somber and pensive journey.
