ZigZag "ZigZag" Instruments: Bass, Drums, Guitar, Mellotron, Synth Feel: Grooving, Relaxed A little aggressive, a little chill, a little groovy, a little cool. Not entirely appropriate for all occasions, but in the right context - it may be just what you need! This is the "Goth 7th-Grader" of the music world. The instrument with the sharp chord hits is the mighty Mellotron, which is a pre-sampler sort of analog keyboard attached to a bunch of tape players. I cheated. This one is digital.

Chill Wave "Chill Wave" Instruments: Synths, Bass, Drum, Guitar Feel: Grooving, Relaxed I was looking for a subject to analogize the depth of my knowledge for the Chill Wave genre of music. Wikipedia was there for me with entire things that I didn't even know were things; Randle Cotgrave! Yeon Namgeon! Digital Mammographic Imaging! Rebelj, Serbia! In brief... I know nothing about Chill Wave. Hope you enjoy the fruits of ignorance! ISRC: USUAN1600048 100 bpm Genre: Funk Length: 4:00 Download "Chill Wave" as mp3 Get it from iTunes! Listen Now!

Dreamer "Dreamer" Instruments: Piano, Percussion Feel: Calming, Relaxed Gorgeous, rich piano chords run counter to subtle percussions. This piece is a workhouse for video productions. Don't bother with the preview, just download this thing. Because seriously... planning a cat rescue? This will work. Attending someone else's family reunion and trying to convince them you're related? Yes. This will work. Time lapse of a rocket assembly? Obviously. I'm looking at you, ESA!

Soaring "Soaring" Instruments: Synths Feel: Mystical, Calming, Relaxed While not an epic hour-long relaxation juggernaut, Soaring is an excellent relaxation workhorse with just enough mystical qualities to keep it from being truly peaceful. Imagine a calm monkey hanging out at a remote monastery who, from time to time, will touch a tree - causing the tree to age a decade in a matter of seconds. I mean... still pretty calm, but something isn't right about that. ISRC: USUAN1600040 Genre: Contemporary Length: 6:20 Download "Soaring" as mp3 Get it from iTunes! Listen Now!

Deadly Roulette "Deadly Roulette" Instruments: Drums, Bass, SynthBass, Guitar, Vibes, Percussion Feel: Dark, Grooving, Relaxed Jazzy! Gumshoe-y! Mystery-y! I suck at making adjectives. Who needs adjectives anyway! I'm fine without adjectives. How fine without adjectives, you may ask? I can't say - as that would require some sort of descriptor! And I don't need descriptors in my writings... Maybe one... tiny little... NO! What am I thinking!? I refuse! I've completely had it with adjectives! Hah! Adverbs work perfectly fine! Woohoo! Adverbs! And before I get mail... adjectives killed my family, so I can go off on them all I want.

Chillin Hard "Chillin Hard" Instruments: Drums, Bass, Choir Feel: Relaxed, Grooving Cross Hip-hop with Shoegaze and what do you get? That was not a joke. That was the description of this piece. If you have a show that opens with a shoegaze band, and then headlines a hip-hop group you could use this as the clever bridge between them! Also, you should immediately fire the concert manager. That was a terrible idea. ISRC: USUAN1600028 80 bpm Genre: Unclassifiable Length: 3:53 Download "Chillin Hard" as mp3 Get it from iTunes! Listen Now! Watch the Video on YouTube

Eternity "Eternity" Instruments: Guitar, Bass, Drums, EP, Synths Feel: Relaxed, Grooving This is like... the ultimate in high-class non-offensive music. You can have this going at the hippest highest-class hotel in the world, and it'll feel at home. You can also put in less-classy places to make them feel classier! Like the opium den you built in your garage, or that tiny closet at your office where lunch-room recyclables go to get sticky and smell bad. I mean seriously... I don't think they ALL started out sticky. ISRC: USUAN1600031 100 bpm Genre: Electronica Length: 3:18 Download "Eternity" as mp3 Listen Now! Watch the Video on YouTube

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!

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.
