Pop

Here's a gentle, rhythmic, and lively one I made specifically for background music. Like my sentimental Daytime TV track, this one has a very benign sound, but this time there's a little percussion and even a bit of voice added to the mix.

Here's one for stock videos that need a very sentimental sound. This is basic piano with some light backing strings to give it a bit of extra sugar. This one is slightly cheesy, but sometimes cheese hits the spot. Features major-key piano, strings, and a happy, emotional feel. This would sound great in a daytime TV series or as backing track for a biography interview.

Here's a nice soft-pop ditty for feel-good situations. This mild, Rhodes-heavy number is poppy and positive with just a hint of Man in the Mirror-style muscle. Light percussion and a guitar overlay help bring the track to a very subdued "arena rock" climax complete with amped guitar solo. I was going for a Michael Jackson vibe here, but this thing ended up in a goofy somewhere-else, didn't it?
