Ghosts That Are Sad

This one is just completely different from the last try, and long, but it is sad, and eerie. It's Also kind of quiet so turn it up. Oh, head phones are definitely the way to listen to experience the rich tapestry of the piece.



Piano, strings, bowed electric guitar.

A more contemplative, thoughtful, Sigur Ros-y look at the End Theme.

End Theme, Coming Home

It is small at the beginning for a loopable underscore for dialogue, but then it get huge.



I'm still not sure about the drums, what do you guys think?
Guitar, piano, strings, bass, drum set, whistling.

Travel Big



Basically the same triplets from the "Travel" guitar part, but with a drum set, another guitar, piano, tambourine, and electric bass through an Ampeg flip top amp.

Ghost of Our Past

We wanted an eerie feel, that also had rhythm since the people are going to be haunted yet traveling or searching. How'd I do?



Bowed acoustic guitar, Piano, Guitar.

Five Kinds of Teasers



I should mention that these sound horrababley right now. ENJOY!

Big City Hustle Two

Another stab. This one is in Five Four time, which always feels like a busy/city-ish tempo to me. Hearkening back to a fifties Manhattan. As per Kendall's text. Did I get it?


Piano, drum set, two kinds of bass, and guitar. And in need of a good mix!

Contemplative

And one more contemplative.


Again, a quick mix. On this one we've got Piano, Vibraphone, the Fender Rhodes piano, and holding it all together is a guitar.

Ah Ha Moment

Here's another try at the Ah Ha, or Epiphany Moment.



I think I need to mix it a bit better, but I wanted to get it up for your consideration.

Big City Hustle (New Talking About Themselves)

Again, the lack of speakers that handle low end will be a problem for listening.

Contemplative Ghosts

I tuned my guitar down to B giving it a dark warmth, and maybe just a touch of eeriness. There would be a lot more low end than what will come out of your computer speakers, which is important to the piece, so bear that in mind while you listen.

Childlike Discovery

When a child approaches a piano she usually plays random keys with no particular rhythm. I tried to capture that in this piece. I wanted the tune to have a bit of a random feel, with a loose tempo. Eventually bringing it together toward the end. I did two versions of this. One with mandolin, to fill it out and give it a hint of the folksiness we are after on the show, and one that is minimalistic. Just piano. With this piece I'm trying to capture the magic of a childlike discovery.

Just Piano


With Mandolin

Let's Get Started (Talking About Themselves)

This piece is meant to work as an "Ah ha" moment, or moment of determination. Also I think it could work with a moment of inspiration, or epiphany. I guess it really depends on the shot right?




This Piece uses; Guitar, Piano, and Mandolin. I also did a version with a shaker if you'd like to hear it. It felt a bit harsh so I didn't include it.

I couldn't find a picture that described the song well enough, I just went with this one when I realized how much time I was wasting.
