Darkling

"Darkling"

Instruments: Percussion, Violins, Violas, Cellos, Basses, Flutes, Clarinets

Feel: Action, Driving, Dark

Pulsing Dooom! Recommended for use in all your various adventure-y side-scrollers with lots of shooting or stabbing, and the occasional jump-scare. Should loop really great!

Nightmare Machine

"Nightmare Machine"

Instruments: Percussion, Organ, Basses

Feel: Action, Driving, Eerie

This piece shares a bassline with "Eternal Terminal" (found elsewhere on this site). It also has the same waterphone. You can use these 2 pieces together and make it seem like your project had a custom composer! How cool is that!?

Burnt Spirit

"Burnt Spirit"

Instruments: Percussion, Choir, Tubas, Trombones, Anvils

Feel: Action, Driving, Eerie

I lost a couple of the synths I used to create this piece between when I wrote it and when I'm releasing it. So, no - I can not do a remix of this piece. If you need less action or less unnerving, seek the answers elsewhere - for this piece has nothing for ye!!

Instruments: Percussion, Trumpets, French Horns, Trombones, Tuba, Cimbasso, Clarinets, Flutes, Piccolo, Oboe, Violins, Violas, Cellos, Basses, Chimes

Malicious

"Malicious"

Instruments: Percussion, Basses, Cellos, Violins, Flutes, Clarinets

Feel: Dark, Driving, Eerie

More action and more intensity! Remember "Legends of the Hidden Temple"? Seriously? It only lasted 3 seasons. It must have been more difficult than it looked. Okay, I wasn't on the show, but I think I could have assembled a silver monkey statue with only 3 pieces.

Aggressor

"Aggressor"

Instruments: Drums, Violins, Violas, Cellos, Basses, Tubas, Trombones, French Horns, Cimbasso, Trumpet, Xylophone.

Feel: Action, Driving, Dark

The whole Orchestral Speed Metal genre has been done to death. But you can't consider yourself a real composer if you haven't checked "Orchestral Speed Metal" off your list. Other essential genres include: Electro Emo-Pop, Motet, Disco Noise, Adult Contemporary, Tone Poem, Haircore, and Zydeco Revival.

Eternal Terminal

"Eternal Terminal"

Instruments: Percussion, Basses, Bass Clarinet, Tubas, Trombones, Clarinets, Flutes, Oboes, French Horns

Feel: Dark, Driving, Epic

I like the waterphone in this piece. It is a bunch of metal tubes welded together, and played with a bow. It is that creepy high-pitched thing you hear in horror movies all the time.

Division

"Division"

Instruments: Piano, Basses, Cellos, Flutes, Clarinets, Oboes, English Horn, Percussion

Feel: Dark, Driving, Intense

This is an awesome theme tune. For ANYthing. You got a dark comedy about an inept biologist? This will work. A gritty fantasy dealing with fairy politics? A sci-fi dystopian future where everyone likes sardines? A reality show about bicycle thieves? A slice-of-life serial about growing up in the Upper Peninsula? Seriously. Anything.

Crossing the Chasm

"Crossing the Chasm"

Instruments: Drums, Basses, Cellos, Violas, Violins, Singer

Feel: Action, Dark, Driving

Adventure, Ho! Last time on "Adventure, Ho!", the mage-orc Gnarlnosh was granted 1d4 wishes from a Deck of Many Things and it totally screwed up the game balance. Why? Because the DM sort of sucks, but he thought "Oh, sure - this could be fun... how could giving a mage-orc a fully provisioned army in the middle of a desert possibly sidetrack the quest for finding a cure for a magical disease that is ruining the kingdom AND the healer elf." Deck of Many Things; BAH! More like Deck of This-Campaign-Jumped-the-Shark.

Mountain Emperor

"Mountain Emperor"

Instruments: Taiko Drums, Gamelan

Feel: Action, Driving, Mystical

So many big drums! All the big drums in all one place! Bonus; Extra people banging on gamelan metals! Uncompressed download comes with a version with just the drums... I'm not sure if this of for non-musicologists who may not like the gamelan - or specifically for musicologists who think I've used the gamelan improperly.
