THE RIPPLE EFFECT

A minimal synth melody progresses softly, as though introducing a topic for discussion. Gradually, gentle bells and light strings accompany and evolve with the melody as we learn more about the subject.

A soft piano melody plays above lightly atmospheric synth pads, as though searching for meaning in an action or motivation.

A wurli electric piano plays a soft cyclical chord progression, which is gradually accompanied by light strings and a gentle piano and glockenspiel melody. Imagine old family camera footage, or archive footage, showing scenes of 'life before'.

Single driving piano notes are gradually layered on top of one another, building a sense of urgency. A string and synth section accompanies, bringing a serious tone to proceedings.

An arpeggiated synth line rolls urgently above minimal sustained drone notes, creating a sense of unease and tension.

A sustained and very minimal drone carries with it a feeling of light tension and sadness. We are being invited to witness the aftereffects of a significant event.

A sustained deep drone sits beneath an arpeggiated synth bass which plays a single note that evovles and grows over time. Tense, urgent and unsettling.

A slowly throbbing sub bass note repeats over a bed of atmospheric drones and mysterious string harmonics. One rule for them, another rule for us.

A light synth pad plays a soothing melody. This is eventually accompanied by light string harmonics and atmospheric pad synths, creating a sense of catharsis.

A synth bleep repeats atop an accompanying glockenspiel, evoking the ticking of time. Pad synths and light string harmonics grow and evolve, soon to be accompanied by a light piano melody, evocative of positivity and hope.

A cyclical synth melody plays above a beeping synth, which repeats like a subliminal warning alarm. Restrained and muted pad synths drone atmospherically beneath proceedings. Are we out of the woods yet? Are we doomed to repeat the same mistakes?
