One-eyed Maestro

Favorite Genre: Unclassifiable
Length: 1:58
Instruments: Accordion, Violin, Percussion, Flutes, Trumpets, Horns, Strings
Tempo: 102

This is the kind of music that makes skeletons dance. With its pounding brass, singsong flute melody, and off-kilter syncopation, this piece is whimsical and reminiscent of a carnival. It is quirky, quick, playful, and dangerously creepy, and is perfect for a lively cartoon, circus-themed content, or a magician’s show. 021 Bouncy, Eerie, Humorous 2010

Honey Bee

Genre: Funk
Length: 0:57
Instruments: EP, Bass, Percussion, Horns
Tempo: 100

The electric piano alternates between playing the rhythm and creating a sliding melody, while trumpets sound in the background, sometimes stealing the melody. The percussion makes for a toe-tapping good time. This is useful for the closing segment of a TV show, game, or transition. Cleanly loopable. 011 Bouncy, Bright 2010

Show Your Moves

Genre: Electronica
Length: 3:35
Instruments: Synths, Percussion
Tempo: 136

Your toe will start tapping to the bump of the bass drum once the music pans through your speakers. This song is one for a successful accomplishment or the happy ending to a difficult challenge. The staccato melody resembles a synthesized tremolo violin, while the bass guitar thumps increase in prominence until they are your heartbeat. 029 Bouncy, Bright, Grooving 2010

Shiny Tech

Genre: Electronica
Length: 3:42

Electronica (techo-pop dance). This is a fast and energetic piece polished almost to a fault. Lots of synth, and a happy clave. Think fashion show runway. Works best loud, works also not so loud. 012 Driving, Action, Intense, Uplifting, Bright 2006
