Demos

Gritty epic demo track that builds with a continuous tension. 

Copyright 2011 Benedict Nichols

Undercurrent

Epic orchestra and choir with tense finish!

Sack the Cathedral - Demo

Moody pads and melacholic strings break out into a full-throated beat and synth line with soaring strings and vocal elements. 

Version B available - WIthout 'down section' and final rise.

A Hero Rises (v. A) - Demo

Title says it all. Agressive synth and beat perfect for a FPS trailer.

Version B available. Has a shorter middle section between the beat sections.

Punch (v. A) - Demo

Epic orchestra choir and big drums track with tension and action throughout. 

Shorter and longer versions available.

Sink the Ship (v. B) - Demo

A light orchestral track with expressive melody and a sense of timelessness and beauty. 

Floating City

Short demo of string writing. Sorrowful and heavy.

Breathless Sorrow - Demo

Pulsating orchestral track with ethnic influences. Rises and falls with an underlying strength and sense of motion.

Alternative versions available with different melodic aspects removed/included.

Towards the East (v. B) - Demo

From a small beginning this track swells and builds, journeying towards a punchy, epic and hard-hitting climax. Various emotions/moods are expressed. Perhaps perfect for a trailer...or it's a track that just shows some of my ability!

From Small Beginnings

Delicate strings and harp piece with a light waltz feel in second half. A light floating melody with a sense of tranquility and beauty.

Through The Door  - Demo

Orchestral ident. Opens with smooh choirs and swells to full orchestra

Smooth Opening

Tense and dark  other-wordly soundscape opening pulls back to an eerie middle and then an orchestral build with a 'rip your arms off' ending! (To quote a listener).

Variations available.

Rise of the Sign (Short)

orchestral track that flows and builds into a pulsating and uplifting climax

Invocation

Quick track written in a day. Gentler start with a rousing section followed by atmospheric voices and choir.

Enjoy :)
