Podmen From Sector 7

A fun camp nod to 50s sci-fi scoring. Featuring a full orchestra, completed with spooky theremin. Eerie and eccentric. Well suited to sci-fi, retro, parody, horror, kids and halloween.

My Ruin

Menacing chamber strings over a tick-tock background rhythm.

The Fear

An 80s inspired horror soundrack, complete with 80s synths and modern percussion elements. Very 'indie' atmosphere. Begins with retro synths, adding powerful sub bass and then the crashing percussion kicks in. Absolutely perfect for trailers and modern, edgy horror.

Chaos Theory

A gripping orchestral horror cue, complete with string stabs, clusters, and a relentless piano ostinato. Great for trailers and action/horror scenes.

Crying Violin

Organ duets with a sad, crying violin in this piece of music. The violin's melody is super emotional describing a range of emotions including sadness, regret and hurt. You can almost hear the tears dropping from the violin! This could also be used to set up a dark, dramatic, mysterious or emotional ...

Goosebumps

A playful and slightly camp horror/sci-fi track. Great for mad scientist horror spoofs, hammer horrors, light-hearted reviews of classic horror. And anything that has six foot spiders!

Blood

Dark gothic industrial electronica. A great underscore for crime, action or horror.

Evolving darknes

Dark ambient track! Slow and obscure mood. Rich strings sections, straight lead line by mystic bell. Perfect for dramatic, thriller or horror movie.

Night Shivers (All edits)

Dark electronic instrumental, with spooky melodies, atmospheric pads, and a driving drum pattern. Starts off slowly, with a mysterious vibe, then the energy picks up with the drum pattern, slightly hip hop influenced. Would fit nicely for a horror movie trailer, or a "behind the scenes" documentary ...

NULL

Dramatic sorrowful track with a huge string section and dynamic, minimal percussion. Would go well in an indie film drama, war movie or a medieval period piece.
