Thunderbird "Thunderbird" Instruments: Bass Flute, Synths, Percussion Feel: Somber, Relaxed, Mystical, Calming Wikipedia describes the Thunderbird as "a supernatural bird of power and strength". It will also ask you to disambiguate it from the automobile made by Ford from 1955 to 2005. I'm sure it was a nice car. I've never owned one. But there were a lot of them! The late 70's Thunderbirds are particularly horrifying... They had those headlight covers that flipped up... because that was a good idea at some point. But this piece! Oh! This piece! Atmosphere like you wouldn't believe! The flute is just so earthy! The organic drones are also beautiful. The whole thing is beautiful. Kind of like you went to an alien day spa in another dimension where days last for years, but you still never get all wrinkly when you're in the bubbly warm waters. mmmm... bubbly warm waters... with the slight possibility of a serial killer.

Five full minutes of battle fighting action bits with a bit of an Egyptian flair! For some reason I associate English horn with desert nomads.

Crypto "Crypto" Instruments: Flute, Percussion, Synths Feel: Dark, Eerie, Unnerving, Suspenseful Very moody little piece with some melodic interest. Tension could be high grade or low grade depending on your context. Waiting for a drug deal to go through in Belize? This'll work. Concerned about the health of your hyacinth macaw while waiting at the vet office? This'll work. Waiting for the OSHA all-clear at your box factory? This'll work. It is mainly about waiting for things. Probably not good things. ISRC: USUAN1600013 80 bpm Genre: Soundtrack Length: 3:24 Download "Crypto" as mp3 Get it from iTunes! Listen Now!

Blue Ska "Blue Ska" Instruments: Drums, Bass, Guitar, Organ, Trumpet, Trombone, Tenor Sax Feel: Bouncy, Bright, Grooving Run of the mill ska!? No such thing! Well, this is as close to that reality as you can get. It is high energy, dance-inducing, happy fun times for everyone who was born after... like... the Industrial Revolution... So, there may be some trees and fungi that don't find this fun; but, I can't really care about their concepts of fun too much. I assume they don't like winters, but they just all sort of stand around all the time. ISRC: USUAN1600011 110 bpm Genre: Ska Length: 2:26 Download "Blue Ska" as mp3 Get it from iTunes! Listen Now!

How much adventure? A statistically significant amount. Somewhere in the neighborhood of 18ppm... (or roughly 18 milligrams per liter... the density of adventure is unusually high, and in some cases even at 18ppm you will get a weight closer to 19mg/L.) Download comes with a faster version, a SUPER faster version, and a slower version without percussion for lazy title screens and whatnot.

Avoid the flaming balls and shoot cyborg ninja in the eye to win round. Retro-gaming circa 1988.
