Black Orchid

Black Orchid by Simon Wilkinson
Dramatic piano music Black Orchid by Simon Wilkinson

Black Orchid is a darkly atmospheric and edgy instrumental piano music track with a sinister sense of paranoia, intrigue and the air of a European film soundtrack.

Would make ideal background music for crime dramas, conspiracy theory films, political thrillers, financial documentaries, human interest stories or video trailers needing a suitably dark dramatic piano music soundtrack.

Subtly dissonant piano melodies give an ominous and nervous atmosphere of impending trouble, paranoia or drama, enhanced by dark and low pizzicato string plucks, tense marcato string bowing and very subtle percussive hits.

The Takedown

The Takedown by Simon Wilkinson

Dark tense atmospheric music suitable for dramatic brooding trailers, dark documentaries, urban thrillers or crime dramas. Sparse, stalking and brooding dramatic electronica with minimal bass, haunting piano and atmospheric cinematic downtempo trip hop beats.

Imagine snipers stalking a target, presidential assassinations or film scenes of political intrigue and paranoia with a similar menacing feel to modern cop/spy film and thriller soundtracks, e.g. Enemy Of The State, Miami Vice, Heat, The Town, The Recruit, 24 etc. License this music track for use in your own documentaries, YouTube videos and trailers.

Frontier

Frontier by Simon Wilkinson

Epic instrumental orchestral trailer music. Slow tentative military snare percussion builds to a dramatic and intense initial climax before dropping to a majestic main mid-tempo atmospheric track featuring strings, French horns, sparse piano, plucked harp, deep timpani, taiko drums and percussion.

Dramatic and mysterious atmospheric instrumental film score style music that moves from an intense epic intro through to more slow and pensive subtle chord changes with a slight air of melancholy. Similar in style to dramatic orchestral composers like Hans Zimmer and 2 Steps From Hell.

Frozen White Light

Frozen White Light by Simon Wilkinson

Atmospheric ambient instrumental space music track Frozen White Light by Simon Wilkinson. A glistening and ethereal 30 minute longform piece of ambient music which can be licensed for documentaries, films, time lapse videos (as heard in the full length Dakotalapse time lapse film Horizons), museum and art installations.

Due to its long, peaceful and unobtrusive nature it can also be used as music for studying, writing, relaxation, triggering ASMR, meditation, yoga etc. or even for aromatherapy and massage therapists needing some calm background music to add atmosphere and ambience.

Ambient Space Music: Frozen White Light by Simon Wilkinson

If you’re an insomniac and having trouble sleeping, this can also make perfect sleep music to help lull you into a nocturnal state of calm. Also great music for getting crying babies to sleep (I can verify this from personal experience with my own baby daughter while I was writing the track!)

Watch the promo video here which includes a short 6 and a half minute extract from the full length 30 minute version of the track set to serene, hypnotic and atmospheric visuals to give you an idea how it can work with your own films. Also for fans of ambient space music and artists such as Steve Roach, Thom Brennan, John Serrie and Brian Eno.

“This single 30 minute track is perfect for lulling off for a short nap. This works perfect for me as I tend to automatically wake when the music is complete. The calm, delicate nature of the music is also perfect for reading to or working with.”

Brian Bourassa

 

“This piece hits a sweet spot for me, it’s kind of music I can float away on.”

Brett Christensen

Exodus by Simon Wilkinson

Dark Roads

Dark Roads by Simon Wilkinson

Dark Roads is a slow atmospheric electronic music track by Simon Wilkinson. Moody soundtrack music with a trip-hop vibe featuring warm but ominous Fender Rhodes keyboard, subtly sinister piano, sparse percussion, minimal pulsing electronica and eerie background synth washes.

Thick keyboards and deep bass gives the track a dark and moody atmosphere with a late night air of pulsing ominous danger. Ideal downtempo background music for dark documentaries, thrillers and urban dramas. Sounds like: driving at night along dark deserted roads or hazy desert scenes.
