Here's a piece I rewrote and submitted for an ad looking for a different take on the Beach Boys' "Don't Worry Baby" for a product ad.

Don't Worry Baby (Verse & Chorus ad mix) - Peter D'Angelo © 2013

My first serious attempt at a horror/suspense scene. This is an original free-form, Jazzy piece that evolves into a scary, climactic moment, then resolves. Pretty freaking scary!! ;)

Nowhere To Hide (Horror Jazz Cue) -  © 2013. *(Under Exclusive Contract)*

Here's one inspired by Krzysztof Penderecki's Symphony No. 1. It was written for a horror film (to be named) and should fit nicely in one the scenes. I hope it scares the ______ out of you!!! ;) Enjoy! 

My Happy Place (Horror cue) -  © 2013 *(Under Exclusive Contract)*

Another one for the horror film cue listings. While looking for scary-sounding things around the house, this one was inspired by one of those Keurig coffee makers. A microphone, some distortion, and a little imagination whipped this up ... Sleep tight! ;) 

Game Over! (Horror Cue) - © 2013 *(Under Exclusive Contract)*

Sweet Dreams was composed for a music library who recently showed an interest in some of my other similar pieces. This dark, creepy instrumental should add the right amount of "cheer" this holiday season ...  (rubbing hands). Enjoy!

They're here ... Nothing can kill them ... And they're multiplying! Here's another dark, creepy piece written for a horror scene. Listen to them and try to keep calm!

Reproduction (Horror cue) - © 2013. *(Under Exclusive Contract)*

Here's my rendition of Jon B & Babyface's 1995 hit, Someone to Love. I was given the challenge of dissecting the tracks and recreating each of them with the gear I have for use in a TV show (to be named). Here's to hoping it makes the cut ... Enjoy! 

PS ... Though this one wasn't selected, it has become a favorite of Soundcloud fans. Thanks again for the "likes" and kind words! :)I found it funny that the person who screened it told me my version was made in the wrong key and different than the original.   ;)

For that very tense and suspenseful horror scene, I hope this one does the trick ... Boo!!! 

Deep Breath - © 2014. *(Under Exclusive Contract)*

Here's another ambient, chilling, and suspenseful underscore written for a spot in a "haunting" TV show, to-be-named ... I hope it scares the _____ out of review team! Enjoy!  

They're Watching You! - © 2014. *(Under Exclusive Contract)*

Here's another "creepy" one for my horror TV show/movie music supervisors ... 

Restless - © 2014. *(Under Exclusive Contract)*

Another "sad", dissonant piano piece for that suspenseful, eerie scene ... Enjoy!

Lonely Soul - © 2014.

Lost ... forgotten ... and cold, this dark piece will definitely set the mood. If the mysterious orchestra and sad piano, coupled with a dark drone don't make your hair stand on end, I'm not sure what will ... Enjoy! 

The Cold Room - © 2014.

Here's another haunting, suspenseful piece, which includes pulsing drones, swelling orchestral elements, and dissonant vibes. Perfect for that scary scene or montage. Enjoy! 

The Witching Hour - © 2014.

Here's my version of this very cool tune (sans vocals. I played and recorded all the parts just for fun ... Enjoy! :)

Jet (Instrumental) - Paul McCartney & Wings (Arranged by Peter D'Angelo)

Here's a fun pop/rock tune incorporating a lot of the musical nuances of the 1980's. A Mentos commercial on steroids?? ;)  Enjoy!

The Web - © 2014.

A group of Extra Terrestrial Intelligence has a human specimen on the table and are about to explore. Let's hope it's not you ...  Enjoy! 

The Encounter - © 2014.

The Slayer's  Lair - © 2014

Here's my latest sad, 90s Country Ballad meets 70s Soft Rock Holiday song, about a family's hardship. It's dark and joyous - simultaneously. Whatcha think? :)

Christmas Hardship - ℗ 2023

Here's a piece that was requested to be very similar to John Carpenter's horror classic. It was actually composed for an advertisement, but could most certainly be used in your next suspense/chase scene. Enjoy!

Lyrics:

(Verse I)
Around these bones there is skin
They hold a light that been getting dim
And the light it flickers with each breath
If it goes out will there be nothing left?
Behind these eyes hangs a screen
stills from life played on repeat
And every frame stays fresh in mind
Tears won't wash what's burned in time

(Pre Chorus)
I'm holdin' on to a last breath of life
Desperate for a ray of hope to let you know that I

(Chorus)
I am alive
I am alive
Touch my heart and I won't won't fall
Touch my hand to change it all.

(Verse II)
Inside this cage beats a drum
Bathed in salt it marches on and on
And every beat is heavier than the last
If it stops this cage will collapse

(Pre Chorus II)
I'm holdin' on to a last breath of life
Desperate for a ray of hope to let you know that I

(Chorus II)

(Bridge)
The more I try the less I feel
I just wanna have something real
I wish to god to hear you say
There are words upon my tongue
I would speak, but ears are numb
Please tell me it's gonna be OK

(Chorus 1.5X)

I wish to god to hear you say
Please tell me it’s gonna be OK
I am alive
I am alive

I Believe in a Thing Called Love - The Darkness

Can't explain all the feelings that you're making me feel
My heart's in overdrive and you're behind the steering wheel

Touching you, touching me
Touching you God you're touching me

I believe in a thing called love
Just listen to the rhythm of my heart
There's a chance we could make it now
We'll be rocking 'til the sun goes down
I believe in a thing called love
Ooh!

I want to kiss you every minute, every hour, every day
You got me in a spin but everything is A.O.K!

Touching you, touching me
Touching you God you're touching me

I believe in a thing called love
Just listen to the rhythm of my heart
There's a chance we could make it now
We'll be rocking 'til the sun goes down
I believe in a thing called love
Ooh!

Touching you, touching me
Touching you God you're touching me

I believe in a thing called love
Just listen to the rhythm of my heart
There's a chance we could make it now
We'll be rocking 'til the sun goes down
I believe in a thing called love
Ooh!
