Name: The Branch Line Theme - Extended (Series 1) by S.A Music
Duration: 1 min
Description: One of the heavily underused tracks from the first 2 series, only used twice. It's a jolly little theme and I thought it deserved some extra run-time. So I thought I'd throw in a small bridge section to complete the theme.

An extension of James' Jazzy Theme that was only used in Series 1, it's easily one of the best themes that O'Donnell and Campbell composed. Now the context behind this extension is that many beleuve that James's Theme was based off of Henry Busse's 'Busse Bounce' where the first 4 bars sound identical to the the start of James' Theme. So 'Kumata' commissioned me to combined both together.

James The Red Engine's Theme - Extended (Series 1)

Hey all, here's a piece I'm quite happy with.

Originally commissioned by TylerBlack5,  the premise was a triumphant pieced based in part on Henry's Danger Theme, incorporating a ditti from The World's Strongest Engine and of course, Henry's theme itself. Translating it to a major key was interesting but fun, and I like the fact that the bassline from the Danger theme worked so well for the buildup (I know it's basic but I found it kinda cool). Anyways, here's a piece I call "Henry's Triumph." I hope you all enjoy!

Composed in Acoustica Mixcraft 9 using an E-Mu Proteus/2 Orchestral Soundfont, drum samples from the Yamaha RX5 Drum Computer, and harp samples from the SC Prophet 2000 Sample Library. Original music composed by Mike O'Donnell and Junior Campbell.

Happy 77th Anniversary to the Railway Series
-------------------------------------------------
Okay, so this is something that I wanted to post (and remaster) for the Anniversary, but sadly I wasnt able to finish it. I also tried to export the file a few times because for some reason Zebra2 is being wacky with me. But at the end I manager to get everything right. I also added Proteus instruments so that it could feel the sense of what Gordon's theme really represents, and I really feel Happy with the result. So yeah, Hope yall enjoy this theme and happy 77th anniversary to the Railway Series!!

Giants of Steam is a documentary about steam on the British Railways released in 1963, and was scored by Ron Grainer of the BBC Radiophonic Workshop. It's a very interesting soundtrack that just screams 1960s, and I was tasked to give it a more sampled sound. Hope you enjoy!

The Branch Line Theme - Extended (Series 1)

An extension of the classic Flying Kipper Theme but done in a similar fashion to my 'Henry's Triumph' remix which copies the formula of the Series 3-4 theme. But this is basically 'if Henry spent half the episode actually getting to Crewe without the infamous accident'.

The Flying Kipper Theme - Good Ending (Series 1)

I've always thought this theme was WAY too short and I always loved the classical sound it had. So I went to work and extended to have a few extra verses to make this feel more 'complete'.

The inspiration behind this was those annoying classical music pieces they play when you get put on hold on the phone lol. I thought the style of those would go with this in a way.

Autumn on Sodor - Extended (Series 1)

So here is an idea I had, extending the 'Winter' Theme to have the verses of the original Branchline Theme. It's fun to expand on these shorter themes and give them more depth.

Thomas' Winter Theme - Extended (Series 1)

Here's a fun one that I've wanted to do for a little while. I always loved how CaptainPunjab took his own unique spin on certain parts of the theme, and wanted to replicate the feeling as closely as possible, yet also taking things in my own direction in a few places. I hope you all enjoy this!

CaptainPunjab - Thomas' Journey and Runaway (Extended Cover)

Here's a fun request from HydeThompson that admittedly took a lot longer for me to finish than I intended. I'm glad it took so long though, as it gave me enough time to fully finalize everything and make this sound as good as possible. I hope you all enjoy this!
