Set It Up arrives directly from the specific historical moment when electronic music was discovering what it could do with a sampler and a very large reverb unit. A sampled breakbeat provides the rhythmic foundation with the characteristic bounce of early hip-hop production, a fat synthetic riff delivers the melodic hook with period-appropriate swagger, and the obligatory orchestral hit punctuates the arrangement with the bombastic authority that the era practically required by law. Vocoder vocals complete the picture, saying whatever they are saying with great conviction and no concern whatsoever for meaning. The overall vibe is big, electronic, super cool, and precisely what late-80s adverts sounded like in the absolute best way.
Ideal for content evoking late 80s and early 90s pop culture - retro-themed YouTube productions, nostalgia content, and any project where the specific energy of that era's advertising is part of the appeal. Works brilliantly for robot-themed content, comedic montages, and any production celebrating the gleeful excess of early electronic production. Also effective for gaming content with a retro electronic aesthetic and for any creator who wants the era's confidence without its shoulder pads.

Gladiatores et Circenses
Royalty Free Action Music
Shane Ivers
2016
Gladiatores et Circenses – Gladiators and Circuses, from the Latin concept of crowd-pleasing spectacle – delivers exactly that. This is a hybrid orchestral and electronic piece that combines the physical force of synthesised bass and drums with the ceremonial authority of staccato horns and a piercing synth leadline that cuts through the mix with competitive confidence. The rhythm is relentless in a way that suggests something about to happen that will require everyone’s full attention, and the overall character is driving, slightly aggressive, and entirely convinced of its own importance. It sounds like the opening of a programme about people who are extremely good at something physically demanding.
Perfect as the theme for contact sports content - rugby, football, MMA, and any competitive athletic context where a powerful, driving opening establishes the stakes. Works brilliantly for sports channel intros, highlight reels, and any YouTube production celebrating athletic competition and physical excellence. Also effective for action sequences, game trailers, and any project that needs a track that communicates competitive intensity and the excitement of high-stakes performance.

I Have The Power is a tribute to He-Man and the Masters of the Universe that takes its subject seriously in exactly the way it deserves – which is to say, with enormous affection and complete awareness of the inherent comedy whilst also genuinely trying to capture what made the cartoon’s music so effective. Extensive research into the source material was undertaken, which presumably involved watching a great deal of He-Man, and the result has the authentic early-80s sound: bouncy bass guitar, period brass, groovy guitars, and a mixture of heroic swagger and knowing cheese that is impossible to dislike. It takes you to Eternia and back in under three minutes.
Works brilliantly for 80s nostalgia content, Saturday morning cartoon retrospectives, and any YouTube production celebrating the television of that era with appropriate warmth. Effective for any project needing an uplifting 80s motivational sound, and for content dealing with childhood nostalgia, vintage toys, and the particular joy of things that were excellent then and remain excellent now. Also effective for any creator who simply wants a track that makes people feel heroic in a slightly camp and completely acceptable way.

Later Alligator

2019
Later Alligator is the sound of an electric slide guitar that has spent its entire life in the heat and is absolutely fine about it. A gnarly, confident riff cuts through the mix with the swagger of someone who has played bars in every small town between Memphis and New Orleans and considers that a perfectly good education. A fat electronic beat adds contemporary weight to what is otherwise a thoroughly traditional electric blues framework, creating an interesting tension between the organic rawness of the guitar and the precision of the production. Gnarly, cool, and deeply sure of itself.
Perfect for content set in or exploring the American South - travel videos, food content, and any project where that specific cultural flavour is part of the story. Works well for sports content, action sequences, and gaming videos where a raw, confident energy is the right match. Also effective for documentary content, portrait photography videos, and any project that needs a track with genuine character rather than generic energy.

Apple For The Preacher
Royalty Free Classic Rock Music

2016
Apple For The Preacher sounds like the ideal blend of ACDC, Deep Purple, and ZZ Top, which is either an extraordinary coincidence or the result of listening to a great deal of classic rock and understanding precisely what makes it work. Classic crunchy guitar riffs deliver the main energy with the confident authority of a track that knows its heritage, pounding drums drive the rhythm with rock and roll conviction, and a relentless bassline keeps the low end honest throughout. There are two guitar solos. The first is expressive and melodic; the second is technical and cost Shane an actual blister during recording. Both are absolutely worth it. RAWK, as the original notes conclude, with considerable justification.
Ideal for rock-themed content of all kinds - gaming montages, sports highlights, and any YouTube production where classic rock energy delivers the right attitude. Works well for guitar content, rock music discussions, and any project celebrating the guitar-driven rock tradition from the 70s through to today. Also effective for action sequences, product launch content with a bold identity, and any channel intro where the music needs to immediately communicate that serious enjoyment is about to occur.
