Driving and determined rock track with a definite tone and purpose to succeed! The track builds through-out and evokes a sense of steely determination, motivation and courage! Good for spots needing music that creates purpose and a sense of fighting spirit. Its also pretty bad-ass! Turn it up LOUD! Sounds a tad like the Black Keys
composer: Benny Hawes | duration: 60 seconds
Dark, moving, futuristic Gamelan piece featuring haunting Gangsa atmospherics, enigmatic sci fi ambiances and epic, thundering cinematic drums. Reflective, mystical modern cinematic piece in a similar style to Cliff Martinez's Solaris score, Brian Eno, Clint Mansell, Trent Reznor, Hans Zimmer etc.
