Raucous shoegaze track in the vein of 'Loveless' era My Bloody Valentine. Wall-Of-Sound guitar, wavering with varying textures over pounding drums, with flute and organ melody lines. Evokes inner-city decay, unemployment, post-industrial era, grey skies and truck loads of passion. Truly unique! Instrumental, Indie Rock, Shoegaze
Light, funky and sophisticated dance track with a strong Bossanova feel, written for fashion related ads, women's/men's perfume, beauty products etc. Groovy organ, vibraphone, syncopated backbeat, Prince style synth stabs. Very hip, cool and tight. Good for scenes depicting style/sophistication. Instrumental, Indie Rock, Alt Dance
Freaky 1990s style dance-groove track with funky lead guitar. In the vein of 'Fools Gold' by The Stone Roses. Wierd, strange, sparse and funky. Features 2 vocal samples with the words 'It's as good as sunshine' and 'down, down, down, down'. For cooking/retro-fashion/and 90s retro dramas and shows. Instrumental, Indie Rock, Alt Dance
A cutting-edge Arabic/Alternative Rock Fusion Track with haunting female vocal refrain in Arabic. A sophisticated sonic pallet of Pearl Jam-esque vibes interwoven with a dark Nu-Shoegaze soundworld. For Middle Eastern turmoil, cultural tension, inner-city life, youth culture, changing times etc. Female Vocals, Indie Rock, Shoegaze
