Carpe Diem "Carpe Diem" Instruments: Clarinet, Ukulele, Flute, Guitar, Xylophone, Percussion, Bass Feel: Bouncy, Bright, Uplifting Yeah Boyzzz! BGM Music in the HOUSE!!!! In this case, "BGM Music" means "Background Music... Music". You want royalty-free!? You got it! You want ukulele mastery!? You got that, too! You want a piece that's a GNDN piece!? DONE! It's like a whole new genre of undistinguished music! It is sort of bouncy, and cheery. So... somewhat distinguished. It is really hard to hype this piece, but it is wicked-useful!

Inspired "Inspired" Instruments: Guitar, Synths, Percussion Feel: Bright, Relaxed, Calming, Uplifting Quite a broad piece. Could be used for corporate films of intricate industrial processes, or a flashback scene to the time at the lake a few summers ago. Maybe good background to your cousin's magic show at the last family reunion. Or a film where you do "industrial processes" at the "lake" with your "cousin". It is really quite versatile!

Furious Freak "Furious Freak" Instruments: EP, Synths, Percussion Feel: Driving, Intense, Bright Starts thin and explodes suddenly and massively around the 44-second mark. The uncompressed download also comes with a cut where it starts out big. I'm assuming it will be used for the outro parts of videos.

Professor Umlaut "Professor Umlaut" Instruments: Guitar, Bass, Drums, Organ Feel: Driving, Humorous, Suspenseful This piece started its life as a random challenge on a show I do on Twitch.tv called "The Wheels of Doom!". The 4 randomized elements that came together here were: Drum Machine, Strings, Xylophone, and Comedic. I think it worked out pretty well!

Thief in the Night "Thief in the Night" Instruments: Guitar, Bass, Drums, Organ Feel: Grooving, Relaxed Laid-back, grooving, and cool. Did I mention cool? You need a cool piece. That is a statement you NEED a cool piece. Lucky for you, this IS a cool piece. Super clean production will allow this piece to fit into most things. I'd personally use this piece for a super badass character. ISRC: USUAN1600019 65 bpm Genre: Reggae Length: 3:05 Download "Thief in the Night" as mp3 Get it from iTunes! Listen Now!

Floating Cities "Floating Cities" Instruments: Synths, Percussion Feel: Somber, Relaxed, Mystical, Calming It is the future? It certainly sounds like it... What would I use this for? Probably a video game with non-action gameplay. Certainly a montage of some futuristic film... or maybe one of those sandwiched scenes where a person is walking in the rain, but you don't get any of the sounds of the actual rain... just this piece. No dialog, no voiceover, just walking. Do they have a name for those scenes? They must. ISRC: USUAN1600018 120 bpm Genre: Soundtrack Length: 3:04 Download "Floating Cities" as mp3 Get it from iTunes!

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.

Slow Jam "Slow Jam" Instruments: EP, Piano, Synths, Percussion Feel: Grooving, Relaxed Well, this is interesting... Smooth sine bass contrasted with a lovely excited drum machine and then... the magic! Genre bending magic! You're a cool kid right? This is for you. You're welcome. Think 'trap' meets 'R&B' meets 'shoegaze' meets some other genre that is SO COOL there isn't even a name for it yet. Download comes with a not-quite-so-slow version that is not quite so slow.

Curse of the Scarab "Curse of the Scarab" Instruments: Xylophone, English Horn, Oboe, Bass Clarinet, Flutes, French Horn, Basses, Cellos, Percussion Feel: Dark, Epic, Action, Driving Five! 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. There must have been some cultural reference in my youth to that effect. Super crazy awesome brass is super crazy awesome... wait for it... you'll be glad you did! Uncompressed download comes with fully loopable mix. ISRC: USUAN1600014 190 bpm Genre: Soundtrack Length: 5:27 Download "Curse of the Scarab" as mp3 Get it from iTunes! Listen Now!

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!

Casa Bossa Nova "Casa Bossa Nova" Instruments: Piano, Flute, Bass, Percussion, Organ, Guitar, Mellotron Feel: Calming, Grooving, Humorous Okay, the tuning on the bass is a bit off here and there, but the heart is in the right place.Throw a filter on this and use it an your waiting area jam. Or on-hold music. Or pre-show music for your militia function. I'm sure the calming aspects would be very welcome in all the situations! Oh, you can also use this in your dance routines. Because bossa novas rock! ... or they Bossa... not sure. ISRC: USUAN1600012 116 bpm Genre: Latin Length: 4:02 Download "Casa Bossa Nova" as mp3 Get it from iTunes! Listen Now!
