Royalty Free Sad / Nostalgic Music

Lonesome acoustic track - either revelling in its tranquil solitude, or slowly sinking into its desperate acceptance of perpetual loneliness, depending on your point of view. In any case, it's a gentle acoustic guitar/harmonica track with a country, cowboy flavour beautifully crafting a special atmosphere of the remote Wild West. Or remote anywhere for that matter.

Soft and nostalgic piano based piece. Classically influenced, with a cinematic touch, it uses repeated broken piano chords for movement, adding strings for depth and hints of acoustic guitar for tonal variety. Heartwarming and touching, it maintains its poise and elegance throughout, creating a sense of romanticism, reflection and optimism.

Awe-inspiring and uplifting orchestral track with a powerful and dynamic build-up

A moving orchestral cinematic piece featuring a piano lead, orchestral strings and overall somber, nostalgic feel

A gentle yet powerful aural representation of calm expanse. Lilting piano and smooth strings meander through the space backed by darker underlying sonic textures, creating an ambiguous mood - somewhere between mesmerisingly tranquil and ominously infinite. Not long, but just enough to act as a builder thanks to it's smooth riser and epic, ethereal tonal qualities.

Slow building, cinematic orchestral piece. Immediately dramatic and intense, through single repeated piano notes and suspenseful violin harmonics, there's an ethnic edge in the instrumentation merging with strings and oboe as the piece turns darker with rich bass and dissonant textures. Ambient and brooding throughout with a tragic, heroic feel to the second half due to a sweeping string and brass melody accompanied by added timpani and rhythm, it remains a calm yet slightly unsettling piece with outstanding tension.

A touching and contemplative soundscape with an ambient and blissful atmosphere. Dreamy piano and sound design textures float on a cloud of soft pads, while calming strings enhance the reflective nature of the music.

This relaxing song makes you believe to be floating through water or the air.

A romantic alt-rock ballad featuring powerful male vocals and layers of distorted guitars

Soft cinematic track with an uplifting dreamlike vibe. Drawing on neo-classical minimalism and cinematic ambience, it really hits the gentle spot of soothing textures and heartfelt progressions with spacey piano and lush strings over a backdrop of airy harmonics. Sincere, transparent and pensive.

Beautiful and elegant cinematic track. With a light and uplifting feeling, it uses string harmonics and soft piano 'question/answer' phrasing to develop the foundation as it builds to a livelier theme featuring pizzicato and legato strings, bright piano and an expressive cello lead. Positive and full of optimism with a delicate sensitivity.

Slightly melancholic song reflecting on the boundless aspirations we have when we're young, and how reality kicks in. Not that it dwells on it so much, leaving us with a mellow acoustic pop folk track featuring male vocals that musically lightens to an upbeat song with a hip feel. Tuneful, charismatic and well crafted.  

Wistful orchestral piece for chamber strings. Deliberately slightly ambiguous in rhythm as well as mood, it is at times playful, at times unsettled. With hints of romance and longing through the use of sweeping legato, to carefree pizzicato and eager staccatissimo, it's a diverse piece of 20th century style music showcasing many articulations and emotions, the one constant being it's tenderness throughout.

Calm ambient guitar track. Heavily reverbed and delayed clean electric guitar laments over a soft bed of synth pads, bass and gently pushing kick drum and percussion while textures build tension all around. Lo-fi effects add an introspective feel, aided by the cinematically arthouse stylings for a track that is full of wonder and soothing tranquility.

Serene piano track with a dream-like aura enveloping its fragile, melodic soul. Whilst it's the piano that holds the tune, it's the shimmer from the strings that adds the touch of magic, transforming the yearning melody into a celestial ray of hope and optimism in an otherwise contemplative mix of sorrow and uncertainty. Cinematically dramatic and emotional, with a heartfelt sincerity.

Serene piano and string track. Mid paced, but lively thanks to the main piano theme that repeats within the orchestra, it builds calmly throughout the first half until it breaks into a more string focused piece, where the solo legato violin plays over marcato string shorts and high piano accents. An emotional and tender piece - light and innocent with a touch of curiosity.

Emotional, sentimental and dramatic piano and orchestra instrumental music. Heartfelt, romantic and evocative underscore.

Smooth, easy listening pop instrumental. Lots of flowing background keyboard runs, soft pads and gentle acoustic guitar give a meandering momentum to the piece, while pop brass give an unexpected stab, resulting in an upbeat and energetic contrast to the mellow undertone. Nothing heavy, but a relaxed, self assured and expectant vibe with lots of positivity.

A dark, mysterious-sounding ambient track featuring a celeste lead and a beautiful string ensemble

Hybrid orchestral track with a dark and melancholic feeling. The texture evolves, becoming more dense at the end.
