The credits sequence from an action-packed sci-fi film.
This piece is a suite of themes used in the soundtrack of my friend Rob Kane's animated dark comedy "Mimsy the Gray Elf".
A VERY Elfman/Hermann-esque action sequence interspersed with mysterious moments.
Short cue based on a series of chord pyramids and cross rhythmic motives.
Pounding percussion, deep brass, and a female choir thrown in for good measure.
Another short sketch for "Ruby" featuring heavy ethnic percussion and lots of stomping.
A short, creepy cue featuring lots of electronic pads and solo pennywhistle.
One day I woke up and thought, "Ric, why don't you write some really bad techno music...just for kicks?". So I did. Here is the result.
Relaxed, jazzy atmospheric film cue done as a sketch for the film "Ruby".
The title says it all.
This is for an online orchestration "duel" at the Northern Sounds forum. The task was basically to take a sweet little diatonic melody by Sean Hannifin and to orchestrate/arrange it however you pleased. This is the result. Enjoy!
