Feel: Driving, Epic, Intense, Mysterious, Suspenseful

The orchestra is woodwind-heavy, it is actually low-winds-heavy so You've got a lot of Contrabass Clarinet, Bass Clarinet, Contra Bassoon, Bassoon... And they're just pulsing... Pulsing and pulsing and pulsing.
So what do you use this for? I don't know. Some things that aren't quite real. It's not a very real-sounding thing.

Accelerating piece of contemporary electronic percussions. There's some bit crusting going down, and a few other things. No melodies - just the hits.

Vanes

"Vanes"

Instruments: Electric Piano, Percussion, Synths

Feel: Somber, Unnerving

A disturbingly sweet melody on an electric piano is accompanied with a slow and steady beat. Synth sounds undulate in the background, fighting for prominence. They ultimately melt away, leaving the piano melody to play one last despair-filled refrain.

Enter the Maze

"Enter the Maze"

Instruments: Percussion, Horn, Misc

Feel: Intense, Mysterious, Suspenseful

A thumping bass note intermingles with metallic noises to create a feeling of tension and terror. Screeching synth noises enter occasionally, and after a shrill screaming lead, the percussion is sparse but nerve-racking.

Decisions

"Decisions"

Instruments: Synths, Percussion

Feel: Driving, Intense, Suspenseful

A vocal chorus blends with subtle percussion and panning synth effects that rattles the bones. The choir rises in volume almost imperceptibly before dissolving, leaving a sense of drama and consequence. Perfect for the background music to build suspense and intrigue. Loopable.

Dark Times

"Dark Times"

Instruments: Strings

Feel: Dark, Somber

Deeply troubling and somber, this piece is heavy on the bass strings, especially in the last minute. The feel is very dark and funereal, and could be used to depict the beginning of the apocalypse.

Pop Goes the Weasel

"Pop Goes the Weasel"

Instruments: Strings, Percussion, Toy Piano

Feel: Dark, Eerie, Intense, Unnerving

Heavy bass drums and an string bass set the tone for this dark and menacing tone. The familiar refrain then plays, but is made expressive and almost violent as it is played on several string basses and cellos. The pace is rather quick and forceful, and after the quick ending, a jack-in-the-box plays, normally child-like, but made creepy because of the sinister music that came before.
