Gritty atmospheric track. More soundscape than melody, it marries acoustic and synth sounds for a hybrid track reflecting tension, intrigue and dark suspense. Starting with a raw, biting cello and metronomic percussion, tension is introduced through high strings, background chorals and synth textures to create an unsettling, eerie vibe, eventually breaking into a fuller beat without letting up on the chills. Mean and moody.

Spooky, skeletal track with a captivating atmosphere. Stripped to the bare bones, it's quite minimal, but uses the space to great effect, allowing the darkness to weave through the gaps. All the creepiest instruments are there: music box, glockenspiel, echoing percussion ... all leading and accompanying the playful strings, ghostly piano, lurking bassoon and carnival accordion for an unnerving experience of delicate, haunting beauty. Chills.

Rhythmically and musically diverse orchestral piece. Interesting to the point of experimentation due to the dissonances and jerky rhythms, it is inherently a classically inspired composition with 20th Century music influences. A sense of the bizarre mixed with battle drum percussion, you have fast, chaotic woodwinds interjecting with off beat brass stabs and a prominent choir echoing and mirroring the main themes. A strong military feel, with a mix of gothic darkness and mischeivous endeavour in a cinematic package.

Dark and suspenseful ambient track with piano and electronic elements

With a Spanish touch, this adventurous soundtrack describes an epic story of comradery. Featuring Spanish guitar and cello.

852 Hz – the frequency of the Third Eye Chakra and the miracle tone for awakening intuition, kind of like a portal to a clearer way of thinking, directing you away from overthinking, intrusive thoughts and negative thought patterns. Without hesitation, I'm happy to say that this visionary meditative soundscape can lift your spirits with its sweeping tones and ethereal dynamic, raising your mood to higher levels and targeting the subconscious workings of the inner mind. Soothing, inquisitive, brooding and intimate.

639 Hz - a frequency filled with love, radiance, and positive energy. It's the frequency of the heart, but don't expect James Blunt style whinings. This is a meditation soundscape designed to go much deeper, whistling straight into your inner core with haunting tones and evolving sound design. As useful for cinematic ambience as it is for spiritual energising, it's said to help you build harmonious relationships with others. Might work better than a mix tape of 80's love ballads.

Industrial background track. Heavily synth based with a hard driving beat, it also has a digital, tech feel as well as the overall urban soundscape it creates. With no lead line to rely on, the main atmosphere comes from a deep, rolling bass powered by the pounding drums and enhanced by varied synth textures, from fast arpeggios to warped single note lines to thick organ chords. Slightly dark and gritty, with a relentless feel of industrial progress.

A short, spooky horror theme with a vintage, lo-fi feel to evoke those darkest of unwanted memories from times best forgotten. Hollow and brittle, but hypnotically repetitive, there are small subtleties to lift it - detuned instruments, dropouts, jagged string stabs and pizzicato - with a near constant deep brooding bass to rumble your bones. An edgy and mysterious, fast moving track that works great as a tension builder or scene setter.

Contemporary orchestral piece with a cartoonish side. You know when you wake up, and everything seems OK until you look at the clock? Panic sets in as you hurry to catch up, with too much to do in not enough time. Here it is in musical form - bright, spritely passages followed by startling realisation and fast paced xylophone and string runs, all mixed up with a sense of urgency in a dramatic and dynamic composition featuring the whole orchestra.

Calm ambient guitar track. Heavily reverbed and delayed clean electric guitar laments over a soft bed of synth pads, bass and gently pushing kick drum and percussion while textures build tension all around. Lo-fi effects add an introspective feel, aided by the cinematically arthouse stylings for a track that is full of wonder and soothing tranquility.

Whilst most of us would reach for the nearest packet of painkillers in times of need, others might be tempted by a more sonic dose of cellular and sensory treatment. 174 Hz acts like energetic anaesthesia and is supposedly great for relieving a person from tension and pain, so this well targeted soundscape of minimalist electronic tones set in a cloud of ethereal ambience might be just the medication you need. Lie back, soak it in, and let yourself float to wherever you want.

Fantasy hybrid orchestral theme. With it's strong sense of the mysterious, feel the gothic vibes through lush string melodies and shimmering harmonics, sprinkled with harp and celeste runs and enhanced with dark choral spirits. Backed by an industrial percussive beat with a string ostinato for an animated sense of action and adventure, deepened by the brooding brass, it's sure to create a magical and tense world of mystical imagination.

Lingering soundscape using rich synth swells like a drawn out pulse and higher pitched elements to enhance the esoteric sonic ambience. Simple, but rhythmically hypnotic and hauntingly mysterious.

Lively, fun and positive orchestral track with an uplifting melody

Short, pulsing drone theme to conjure up dark and foreboding terrors - a dark, ambient soundscape built of layered synth textures and sprinkled with atmospheric, tension building effects.

Modern classical piece for strings. A contrasting track in mood and performance, with feelings of uplifting flight and adventure mixed with off beat accents and juxtaposed rhythms for a deliberate chaos and nervousness. A vast range of dynamics and playing styles - dissonance, pizzicato, legato, marcato, shorts, trills etc - add to its hectic nature yet it remains cohesive and themed throughout.

Fantasy adventure track. Using the complete orchestra to generate an organised chaos, this fast paced piece features themes from all directions - string runs, woodwind answering phrases, brass interjections and relentless percussion all combining to create a circus of sounds with a hint of the macabre. A whirlwind of symphonic fantasy.

Exotic Indian and Arabian influences dominate this instrumental track, based around a melodic sitar theme. An exuberant posse of percussion, from hand drums to cymbals, provides the perfect backdrop to this feast of flavours from the Orient, creating a magical and mystical aura to transport you to another culture. Not entirely rooted in traditional music, it adds an electric bass to give a taste of more modern desert blues, and lift the vibe to an upbeat, liberated slice of the East.

Dark suspense track. With gothic overtones thanks to the choral themes and cinematic fantasy thanks to the repeated glockenspiel and piano motifs, the horror seeds are planted early on to generate the brooding atmosphere. With a deep, rolling bass line and booming percussion enhanced by synth drops, brass rasps and jagged strings, it soon becomes a nightmarish mix of ominous energy and overwhelming helplessness.
