Name: The Thrill of Victory by CalZone in "Pelé: King of Football" soundtrack remixed for licensing
Duration: 39 s
Description: A grandiose, rousing orchestral opening theme song for a sports event broadcast or news program.

The "Pelé: King of Football" mobile soccer game app was released on iOS and Android right before the 2014 Brazil World Cup, and has been downloaded over seven million times. I originally produced the app's high energy samba and bossa nova-flavored score for playback on mobile device speakers. I produced these fully realized remixes for Rio 2016 Olympics-related broadcast licensing and beyond.

This is the extended version of my theme for "Inside: US Soccer's March To Brazil". 

Inside: US Soccer's March To Brazil - Theme (Extended Version)

A grandiose, rousing orchestral opening theme song for a sports event broadcast or news program.

The Thrill of Victory

This remix grew out of the Main Menu theme from the "Pelé: King of Football" app, a rousing hymn to the gods of Brazilian futbol. This piece envisions the energy and excitement of a marching band playing from the pitch of Rio's Maracana stadium to a capacity crowd at the 2014 World Cup. A samba bateria and apito whistle get the party rolling. Then a brass fanfare amps up the crowd, which erupts into an anthemic bossa nova style terrace chant. Viva the beautiful game!

Maracanã Samba Anthem (Stadium Crowd Roar Mix)

This uptempo samba/house/electronic groove gets its CHIC on with funky horns, bouncy electric bass, and percolating Brazillian percussion, including a frenetic berimbau feature. 

Rio Runway Strut

"Junior" level theme from "Pelé: King of Football" app, remixed for broadcast. Vintage bossa nova jazz nod to Sergio Mendes' "Mas Que Nada" featuring funky piano, breezy flutes, Brazilian percussion, and nylon string guitar.

Bossa Nada

"National" level theme from "Pelé: King of Football" app, remixed for broadcast. This high energy, aggressive funk/hip hop groove faces off with cocky attitude, spiked with Brazilian berimbau and vintage, turntable-spun horn section stabs. Filthy funk bass breaks away in a big beat/Block Rockin’ bridge, and plays dirty with a tripped-out samba bateria breakdown.

Conversa Fiada (Talkin' Trash)

This is a studio remix of the Main Menu theme from the Pelé app, a rousing hymn to the gods of Brazilian futbol. The sadium crowd sounds and huge crowd vocal from the video game mix have been removed, here the ensemble performs in an intimate space with less reverb.

Ave Africa: The Complete Recordings

Sunburst - "Simba Anguruma" [From Ave Africa: The Complete Recordings]

This album is available at http://bubbles.bandcamp.com/track/split-infinitive-full-album-mix-2

    The music on Split Infinitive is dark and sparse with thick bass and psychedelically mutated vocal samples. A musical reflection of the sentiment of our day and age. A tone poem.

    Split Infinitive pushes the boundaries of electronic music genres by melding dubstep, ambient, minimal, and drum n' bass elements with curious musical references to Pink Floyd, Kruder and Dorfmeister, Aphex Twin, Led Zeppelin, Plastikman, Prophetnoise, and many others.

"Commotion" - Dust Motif

A bluegrass arrangement of Richard Wagner's "Ride of the Valkyries" to accompany a game involving a flying pig!  I'm kind of crazy about this track. I think I followed the Valkyries harmonic structure through most of the track.  I had to use 9 harmonicas to get through all the chord changes.

Arranged, performed and produced by Stan LePard.  Fiddle by Paul Elliott.

A Tony Allen Tribute by François K

Cal Reichenbach produces eclectic music for film, TV, and video games. An accomplished guitarist and composer, Cal specializes in emotionally dynamic, rhythmically compelling scores that enhance visual action and propel narrative flow. His work spans a broad range of genres including rock, funk, jazz, afrobeat, Brazilian, orchestral, electronic, and world groove. Cal plays an array of guitar styles as well as bass, mandolin, ukulele, and guembri (Morroccan/Gnawa bass lute) in his productions.

Areas of scoring expertise include show open themes, emulations of any given reference track/musical genre/era, and the integration of ethnic music styles from any desired corner of the world. Tongue-in-cheek musical satire is another CalZone specialty: ironic cover arrangements, over-the-top genre parodies, and other feats of comedic scoring--from subtly sardonic to outrageously hyperbolic--are served with extra relish. 

Cal has worked with Subaru Asia, Bully Entertainment/Cosi Games (for Pelé: Soccer Legend, >7mm downloads), Pilot (for FX, AMC, CMT), Cartoon Network/Adult Swim, Men In Blazers (VICE Sports), Organic, Brass Ideas, Cibo, Evolve Media, Disher Sound (for PlayStation Magazine/Gran Turismo 4), and director Banker White/WeOwnTV.

After a decade of touring, recording with, and producing an array of rock, funk, and jazz bands including the award winning Bay Area afrobeat ensembles ALBINO! and Aphrodesia, Cal earned an MFA in music production for visual media at Academy of Art University in San Francisco.
