Old Road

"Old Road"

Instruments: Double reed, Percussion

Feel: Driving, Suspenseful

This music is the introduction to your characters entering a Middle Eastern village for the first time. The tribal drumming is all hustle and bustle, while the melody is winding, forceful, and unfamiliar.

When The Wind Blows

"When The Wind Blows"

Instruments: Guitar, Synths

Feel: Calming, Somber

Several wind instruments play lilting melodies that are slow and meander through the piece, sometimes bordering on being slightly out of tune. The calm music has an edge of solemnity about it. The ever-present acoustic guitar is methodical and resembles a pulse ? it exists but is forgotten, except when the guitar draws out the length of a note.

Redletter

"Redletter"

Instruments: Strings, Synths

Feel: Dark, Eerie, Intense, Suspenseful, Unnerving

High-pitched strings play above a low drone, while fuzzy noises and cymbal rolls flow throughout. The high strings crescendo and quickly cut out as if a knife sliced their throats. A somber melody plays in the final minute, and the noises crescendo and come at you from every angle, symbolic of an attack and a gruesome finale.

Right Behind You

"Right Behind You"

Instruments: Synths, Cymbals, Voice

Feel: Eerie, Mysterious, Unnerving

Breathy noises make the hairs on the back of your neck stand, while screeching strings and high-pitched noises are distracting and spine-tingling.

The House of Leaves

"The House of Leaves"

Instruments: Harp, Violins, Percussion, Synths

Feel: Dark, Eerie, Intense, Suspenseful, Unnerving

A simple harp refrain plays a child?s melody, but is torn apart by discordant screeching noises, thumps, growls, and mechanical noises.

Finding the Balance

"Finding the Balance"

Instruments: Bass, Percussion, Synths, Voice

Feel: Bright, Grooving, Intense

The beginning is calm with the Middle Eastern dudek playing the melody. As the electronic elements melt into the dudek and the plucked strings, the groove is established. Just into the third minute the melody changes to beautiful and touching, but returns to the feel of the intro, while a woman?s voice sings a haunting melody in a distant language. This is music of wonder, and is best as exposition music for a film about nature or a group of people struggling to survive.

Ibn Al-Noor

"Ibn Al-Noor"

Instruments: Plucked strings, Bow strings, Percussion

Feel: Action, Eerie, Suspenseful

Evocative of the Arab world, the music begins stoically; the melody accentuated by simple percussive sounds. Within the first minute, the strings hypnotize with their sinuous melody, the tribal drumming awakening the senses. In the third minute the piece changes to a heavy, dangerous string and tribal drumming that builds until all of the instruments come together in a fitful way, until the abrupt ending.

For the Fallen

"For the Fallen"

Instruments: Brass, Strings, Percussion

Feel: Epic, Intense, Somber

Beginning with beautiful symphonic chords accentuated by a glockenspiel, For The Fallen builds gently and with emotion. At the mid-point, marching drums build in and the music strikes a more serious tone, retaining its dramatic passion.

Split In Synapse

"Split In Synapse"

Instruments: Synths, Brass, Clarinet. Percussion

Feel: Action, Intense, Unnerving

A short piece that mixes the symphony with frenzied electronica elements and a dance beat. The horns are blasting and discordant, the synthesizer is manic, the effects disorienting, and the final cresecendo push is loud and forceful.

Clenched Teeth

"Clenched Teeth"

Instruments: Strings, Brass, Percussion

Feel: Action, Driving, Epic, Intense

Timpanis and strings battle with a snare drum and horns throughout this epic piece, slowly building and rising to chaos. The music is high-action and only includes a few short dramatic interludes.
