Totally rad, high action 80's shimmery synthy goodness. Not just for 80's cop shows. Also great for Anime robot videos, arm wrestling montages, what have you.

This one was originally written for a film director who wanted to use some Skynard in the background of a scene, but couldn't afford the rights.  It's southern style rock, but somehow a little Beck slipped in somewhere.

This song features an instrument that I build out of tom tom and a bass neck.  It's a hybrid of a cello/bass and a banjo and is meant to emulate the sound of the Moroccan instrument shown in this picture.  This song features an unlikely but somehow natural blend of north and west African music that seems to accompany travel scenes of any kind.
