Shadowlands 6 - The Pit

"Shadowlands 6 - The Pit"

Instruments: Synths

Feel: Eerie, Intense, Unnerving

Part alien cacophony, part organic awfulness, part six of seven. If you set this piece as music you wake up to in the morning, you're going to have a bad, bad day. There will be half remembered monsters from the times of not-asleep, not-awake... whose only jobs are to induce unexpected nausea inside government buildings.

Shadowlands 3 - Machine

"Shadowlands 3 - Machine"

Instruments: Synths

Feel: Eerie, Intense, Unnerving

Part three of seven. Part pipe organ, part broken pipe organ, this isn't just spooky, it is crazy spooky. It also has a musical theme, which not all of this horror moody stuff has. Consider it the jelly filling in your horror doughnut.

Shadowlands 5 - Antechamber

"Shadowlands 5 - Antechamber"

Instruments: Synths

Feel: Eerie, Intense, Unnerving

Part five of seven. Airy, but not in the "I'm outdoors, and everything is great 'airy'" way. More like the "the alien machine that sustains our life is slowly breaking down and poison is beginning to seep from its core" way. Whatever is happening... it isn't fast, and it isn't good.

Shadowlands 2 - Bridge

"Shadowlands 2 - Bridge"

Instruments: Synths, Prepared Piano

Feel: Eerie, Intense, Unnerving

Part two of seven. Very close clusters of tones bring the tension! And that tension wanes and waxes without notice. If you want your audience to be concerned, this is how you do it.

Giant Wyrm

"Giant Wyrm"

Instruments: Piano, Synths, Brass

Feel: Eerie, Unnerving, Dark

Oh! The horror! This is NOT a fun piece. It WILL make you feel like there is something seriously wrong. Did those veins on my forearm always look like that? I mean, they're doing a weird criss-cross pattern... and they look REALLY blue. I would have noticed that before, surely! I wonder if this has anything to do with the meteor that came down in Mr. Wilson's pond last night? Uncompressed download comes with 4 stem files in case you don't need all the creepy, all the time.

Welcome to HorrorLand

"Welcome to HorrorLand"

Instruments: Piano, Strings, Synths, Percussion

Feel: Dark, Eerie, Intense, Unnerving

Welcome to HorrorLand! Please keep all arms, legs, and eyestalks inside the vehicle at all times. All exits are clearly marked. There are no exits. Do not attempt to leave HorrorLand. This will end badly for everyone. Please note: it will end badly if you do not attempt to leave as well. So, it is really up to you. Feel free to split up your group and explore. That is always a great idea!

Feel: Dark, Eerie,Unnerving

Delightfully creepy, this piece is really difficult to listen to without squirming a bit. I blame the violins... as we all should. Perfect for any scene where something just ain't right!

Instruments: Tuba, Bass Clarinet, French Horns, Contra Bassoon, Bass Flute, Flutes, Clarinets, Oboe, Marimba, Tubular Bells, Cellos, Violins, Violas

Feel: Dark, Mysterious, Intense

Dark and broody, this one starts thin, gets really muddy, and then releases to a faster clearer section. Where would I use this? No idea. I'm sure you'll think of something, though! You can download this in uncompressed format here! Download comes with individual tracks so you can make your own mixes.

Unseen Horrors

"Unseen Horrors"

Instruments: Strings, Basses, Cellos, Violins, Brass, Percussion

The Escalation

"The Escalation"

Instruments: Percussion, Basses, Strings

Feel: Dark, Driving, Action, Intense

One really long build. Generally gets faster, fuller and more exciting. Like "Bolero" but for suspense. You can download this in uncompressed format here!
