Passing Action

"Passing Action"

Instruments: Bass, Percussion, Strings

Feel: Dark, Unnerving

This short piece is the accompaniment for the hero surreptitiously breaking into a corporation or headquarters. The reverberating congas, triangle, and synthesized percussion enhance the senses, while the bass guitar provides a strong groove. The strings raise in pitch, evoking a sense of building tension. High-pitched crescendo of strings at 0:45 is the climax of the suspense.

Land of the Dead

"Land of the Dead"

Instruments: Choirs, synth

Feel: Dark, Mysterious, Unnerving

A background pad full of human souls. A cacophony of choirs run in counter directions. This is very unpleasant to listen to at volume.

Artifact

"Artifact"

Instruments: Percussion, Marimba, Kalimba, Guitar, Choir

Feel: Grooving, Dark, Mystical

Interesting multi-layered blend of percussion rhythms and acoustic guitar, which foreshadows the choir.

Big Mojo

"Big Mojo"

Instruments: Percussion, Koto, Strings, Flute, Misc Orchestral, Electronic

Feel: Action, Dark, Driving, Epic, Grooving, Intense, Mystical

Big grooving percussion loop with a massive bass kick that will rattle teeth. It starts out with high and low shelves, and kicks in at around 30 seconds. Big ending.

Double Drift

"Double Drift"

Instruments: Guitar, Bass, Conga, Bongo, Synth

Feel: Grooving, Dark, Mysterious

Loads of delay on the guitar give this piece a dark, yet comforting feel. All of the sounds are rounded, but the effect isn't.

East of Tunesia

"East of Tunesia"

Instruments: Percussion, and... I'm not sure what else.

Feel: Dark, Eerie, Mystical

Sort of based on Maltesian music. The primary horn in this piece is actually an effected sopranino sax with an oboe drone.

Phantasm

"Phantasm"

Instruments: Bells, Dulcimer, Synth, English Horn, Percussion, Flute

Feel: Dark, Eerie, Mysterious, Somber, Unnerving

This piece stars a super-low bass line that physically unnerves. The bells and other melodies offer enough complexity to offset the simple repetitive lines.
