Fast paced song about being addicted to loving someone or something that may or may not be good for you - good for chase scenes or even drug/addiction based scenes
Fast paced metal song with wicked cool synths/guitar harmonics throughout...verses are open and free, building to the big heavy, in your face chorus. Picture a dozen airplanes in a dog fight, or an airstrike by the good guys, just when you think there is no hope for survival. This song would be a good sound bed for any action scene, and also for various hard hitting sports themes. Nice pace and movement...
Tense, angry, powerful intro with big guitars...open, mysterious verses with clean guitars building into heavy intro/chorus theme. The title says it all...you can feel the hero (or villain?) lying in wait, in preparation of the ultimate ambush! Possible uses, various sports themes, and film/tv cues represneting tension (being trapped, struggling to break free, wanting someone to save you), hero saving someone
Don't let the heavy intro fool you...song goes into dreamy, mysterious vibe...chorus movement is heavier with distorted guitars. Bad guy becomes good guy and goes out on a vigilante mission to atone for his sins. Possible uses - dream sequence, stream of conciousness, drifting off to sleep type of scenes, scenes shrouded in mystery, graveyard, full moon, vampires, ghosts, etc.
Sherri Mullen (Rise)
Etherial, haunting, Pink Floyd-esque song with echoing vocals, pulsating piano, droning strings, and an emotive, crying electric guitar providing the backdrop for thought provoking lyrics about courage, spirituality, and believing that even in the darkest of times, we are not alone . . .
Creepy, industrial goth type of treatment...synths, cool bass line, varied electric guitar treatments, nice steady movement. Chorus is filled with "tension". At 3:15, neat breakdown with strange, almost "spacey" vibe. You can picture walking through a graveyard, or underground cave and finding the secret passage where others did not make it out! Good for horror films, action, chase, stalking scenes, or scene where someone is building something, or a CSI is working in the forensics lab, or a cop checking out a crime scene.
Mid-tempo and heavy "paced" guitars with space in verses, leading into full chorus. Very modern/alternative treatment. This song is reminiscent of a fight scene in the style of Rocco Bonetti, the great Renaissance Italian fencing master. Song would be good for any type of action scenes, sports themes, thriller scenes, and of course a good sword fight to the death!!
Sherri Mullen (Mask)
Steady, lagging, song about a psychopath, someone who is mentally unstable, dysfunctional mind...underlying "voices in your head" throughout track and insane guitar solo- Good to describe a demented villain
Sherri Mullen (Rise)
Tension filled song with a spacey vibe that starts off with a lone marimba, sparse acoustic guitar, and a barely audible perculating synthesizer that gradually grows in volume and ferocity until it feels like the mother ship is about to land right next to you! Strong and courageous, with determination...Lyrically focused on rebirth from darkness into the light.
A calming redemptive piece that sounds like passing from one side to the other with the safety of an angel's guidance
Tribal rhythm...weird chanting in the background...can almost see someone dancing around a fire in a ritual for this one!
Brian Levering ** instrumental version **
Guns N Roses style hard rock music that features killer guitar playing and a high energy groove! Could work in action scenes, sports recaps, bar room scenes or anything that needs some good old fashioned rock and roll!
Danger is lurking and getting closer as you listen!
Song about things not being what they seem...good for vampire, action, chaos, confusion, and supernatural type themes
Rollicking rock and roll song about cutting loose and getting into the fun kind of trouble! Features thunderous drums, screaming organ, booming bass, smoking sax, and killer guitar!
Sherri Mullen (Rise)
Beginning with a lone piano, this song quickly hightens as steady bass grooves are woven together with intricate electric guitar licks and synthesizers added in for good measure! Lyrically intriguing, the alt rock composition (in the style of "Muse") is about the universal struggle to become the good that the world needs. "Looking for my HALO . . . swimming in fire rings, as I try to earn my wings . . . "
Vampire song. I will make you my immortal and you will live forever. A must have for your vampire or supernatural being themed films!
Industrial and electronic. Very catchy rhythms and a dangerous vibe. "I keep falling down...but I keep on climbing". Song is about not giving up. Perfect for club scenes, party scenes, or perhaps something more daring like drag races or a fight scene.
Dark, what am I doing, why can't I stop, I know this is wrong. Uptempo and heavy-good for action scenes.
SM2 (Strange Symmetry)
Hard rock - Piano underneath and a heavy riff reminiscent of Muse's "Stockholm Syndrome".
Sad, desperate ballad about struggling with one's demons. Good for suicide contemplation, depression scenes, or death of someone.
Sherri Mullen (On The Edge)
Good for action scenes, standing on the edge of something, decision (push me or save me), car chases, skiing, snowboarding, rock climbing
High energy, powerful, intro/choruses that would be perfect for sports...especially full contact (football, hockey) or sports with movement or element of danger (skiing, luge, speed skating). Intense and full of energy. Great for horror movies, vampires, ghosts,chase, bad guy trying to shoot good guy, and MORE!!
Hard, fast paced, "piece by piece you're tearing me apart"! action & chase scenes, love gone bad
Up tempo, alternative rock song - good for sports, chase scenes, driving, action...good guy chasing bad guy...or perhaps the other way around!
Tense,angry,being trapped, struggling to break free,wanting someone to save you...superhero scenes or victims trying to rise above their situation and take action
Bizzare, industrial like goth rock song about child abuse by a father, and wanting revenge - creepy, but tastefully done
Cool arpeggio "chorused" guitar/synth intro, verses have strange guitars bouncing back and forth...chorus has heavy, driving guitars. We've all floated in and out of that scarey dream, so glad to wake up and find it is not true. But what if the dream was peaceful and the awakening held frightening surprises. Great for sports, action, chaos, mystery and more
Strange, erie industrial goth rock...verses focus on a drum beat..then chorus hits with guitars, synths, and weird fuzzy drums. Fits any theme that is creepy or where tension is desired. Good for scenes where someone is hiding and being pursued by the creepy bad guy...they hide, bad guy stalks, and then they RUN LIKE HELL to get away from him!
Fast paced heavy metal song about willingly carrying the burden of being a scapegoat for someone
Layers of floating harmonies sitting on top of heavy dark guitars...song about deceiving someone & getting close to being found out
Creepy, industrial goth type of tune about the things we hide. Good fit for horror and vampire movies!
Aggressive hard rock / punk song with abstract stream of consciousness lyrics and dissonant lead guitars. Good for any scene requiring music to take it up a notch. For example: burglars making their get-a-away; soldiers initiating battle; football team blitzing the quarterback.
Brian Levering ** instrumental version **
Loud, aggressive, angry punk music similar to the Pixies. Features lots of guitar soloing. Perfect for scenes of gangs or bikers.
The Lone Wolf Project ** instrumental version **
Tense and edgy alternative acoustic piece. Perfect for showing drama and tension building within the scene.
Acoustic alternative indie pop. Soulful vocals with swagger and a very urgent and rhythmic delivery. Perfect for any dramatic scene that needs an exciting, dangerous sounding song. Tense & edgy.
Scary, forlorn, lonely music that makes you feel like your isolated in a spaceship silently floating through outer space. All alone... or are you?
Tribal, Native American music with lyrics about living large and making the most of life. Would be great for any scenes that depict characters out of their element, finding themselves in new environments.
Heavy alternative rock music with an electronic feel. Somewhat silly, yet surreal, lyrics that evoke imagery of a person's death and/or destruction. Features guitar solos, vocal harmonies, and a vocoder.
Jon Smiths Voyages (Unattended Symphony)
A somber and understated acoustic guitar piece paints a graveyard scene where one can ponder mortality and and the dread that comes with it. Wurlitzer, cello, bass, and vocal harmonies feature.
Dream sequence, stream of conciousness, drifting off to sleep type of scenes, beautiful, but tense. Female Pink Floyd "esque"
Great weird creepy intro...high energy...powerful...your God has turned his back on you (come to the dark side with me). Revolution!
