We Lie In Wait

Sometimes it's the innocent simplicity that hides the darkest terrors. With a menacing detuned piano theme penetrating your brain over a backdrop of atmospheric vinyl crackle, string swarms and percussive metal hits, this horror trailer track has the brooding sense of witnessing something you really don't want to see. Very dark, very atmospheric, and very horror.

With a title like this, you've probably guessed what to expect, and you're right: a happy-go-lucky ukulele track with an super catchy glockenspiel melody, perfect for summer picnic moods. In fact, what you really get is a gritty, intense dark noise horror track full of twisted sounds and gruelling vocal samples. It's a slow burning, dark and subtle piece, gradually evolving through deep drones and interjected sound design elements, creating a lurking presence with a dose of spine-chilling suspense. Very atmospheric and deeply disturbing.

Spooky goings-on and creepy encounters guaranteed with this one - with a mix of playful kitsch and genuine horror soundscape, it has a bit of everything.

Dramatic and familiarly chilling.

Experimental orchestral hybrid mixing gritty electro elements with symphonic themes. Fluctuating between jazzy chill, electro rock, trippy garage and neo-classical, it really is a melting pot of ideas that successfully manages to gel and retain an upbeat and positive feel - sometimes feeling corporate, sometimes surreal verging on hypnotic, sometimes progressive rock, you're never sure what's coming next so have a listen and decide for yourself.

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.

Gloriously ambient track with a heavy cinematic leaning. Building a bed of tension through soft piano and strings, it breaks into an expressive outpouring of reflective emotion, using a dynamic cello lead and chiming guitar. It's a theme that returns with more complexity and intensity, but manages to keep it's fragile, delicate sensitivity with a calming yet weighty vibe. Slow paced, and all the more powerful for it.
