A very joyful and happy classical piece with a melodic touch. Can be used for most things. At least parts of it. Originally written for theater.

Come Closer is a mystical melodic piano piece that was originally placed in the middle section of my metal album Origin. It has rock elements, but is in general really depressive. Perfect for drama.

Cinematic piece with lots of diversity. Very mysterious at times, and filled with flowing strings and harmony. Changes an awful amount of times, and the ending is just completely different. Parts can be cut out if you want single parts only.

Starts off very dramatic, fast and epic. Ends in some sort of Russian-epic-style-thing(what?)Very much rhythm and suspense!

From the album “Fjörður”. A celtic-inspired piece, with lots of melody and diversity. This is perfect background music for most things. Melodic fantasy music like this has a very soothing effect on people. Very effective to engage your audience. No person in the world hates this kind of music.

The piano version of this song. Starts of very calm and relaxing and transcends into a big band blues piece. This is definitely one of my own personal piano favorites. It has a lot of different elements, and the song is in itself really interesting.

Funny, bouncy tune that has a crunchy backbeat. Literally sounds like the drum is crunching! I dig the guitar track I chose for this about 1 minute in - it's got a very U2 heavy reverberated vibe to it. This one is a lounge in the lanai kind of tune,...

It's always easier making the scene transition smooth and interesting when adding a piece of music between the shots. That's what this piece is for. You want to shut off the previous scene, and greet the new one. A great example of this is the show "Friends", where I have...

I don't know why I usually name my comedy pieces "something-something sloth". Or actually I do know. Sloths are freakin' awesome. Apparently their defense mechanism is that they are so pathetic and gross that most predators won't even eat them.

A sad and romantic piece. Lots of harmonies and strings. Perfect for those sad scenes where you want your viewers to cry a couple of tears. This music will help you achieve that.
