Austin Martini - Collection ONE

The Search -

The Search - Artist: Album: Collection ONE, From: Riverside, Please Support and purchase 'The Search' from ProjectOpus.com (http://www.projectopus.com/austinmartini), Date Posted: July 4, 2006

A classical piece written as a dark and slow ambience/mood piece that would work well in the appropriate context for a video or film production. To date this is my favorite track. I listened to it on repeat for over three hours while driving in the car. People will naturally assume that it is about a search/rescue situation by the artwork; however, the music itself is more of an introspective search. Lost in the world trying to find the right path to destiny.

The Swans -

The Swans - Artist: Album: Collection ONE, From: Riverside, Please Support and purchase 'The Swans' from ProjectOpus.com (http://www.projectopus.com/austinmartini), Date Posted: July 4, 2006

A beautiful cello punctuated with moments of timpani and cymbals. It was intended to capture the dark side of the graceful swan. Shunned in its youth suffering from a slight inferiority complex. Having mated for life and knowing how fragile life can be there is always the eminent and bleak life of loneliness and depression.

Adventure Theme -

Adventure Theme - Artist: Album: Collection ONE, From: Riverside, Please Support and purchase 'Adventure Theme' from ProjectOpus.com (http://www.projectopus.com/austinmartini), Date Posted: July 4, 2006

The mood is intended to be an adventure theme for a children's cartoon. It has an upbeat energetic rhythm and eclectic, exotic and fun melody. This is a short one but most children seem to enjoy the rhythm. This is also the official theme song for TSTRONG2's THE BEST OF MY SIGNATURE REVIEWS SHOW on garageband.com.

Butterfly -

A music box tune.

Cosmic Wasteland -

Cosmic Wasteland - Artist: Album: Collection ONE, From: Riverside, Please Support and purchase 'Cosmic Wasteland' from ProjectOpus.com (http://www.projectopus.com/austinmartini), Date Posted: July 4, 2006

This is an ambience piece. Imagine a planet that has long since been evacuated and deserted. There is very little atmosphere left and what there is is toxic and not very friendly. There is bits of artifacts of what once was, but it disappears quickly from the high winds and shifting sand and dust. Is it terrestrial or alien? It doesn't matter. It is the cosmic wasteland.

Factory Chase Theme -

Factory Chase Theme - Artist: Album: Collection ONE, From: Riverside, Please Support and purchase 'Factory Chase Theme' from ProjectOpus.com (http://www.projectopus.com/austinmartini), Date Posted: July 4, 2006

A loud and industrial piece. Great for a showdown in an industrial environment. Hide and go seek with guns in a factory setting.

Final Mission -

Final Mission - Artist: Album: Collection ONE, From: Riverside, Please Support and purchase 'Final Mission' from ProjectOpus.com (http://www.projectopus.com/austinmartini), Date Posted: July 4, 2006

A children's sci-fi robot space probe fantasy electronica experiment. I wrote this for my 6-year-old son. He likes it.

Majestic Madness -

Majestic Madness - Artist: Album: Collection ONE, From: Riverside, Please Support and purchase 'Majestic Madness' from ProjectOpus.com (http://www.projectopus.com/austinmartini), Date Posted: July 4, 2006

An original bit of classic/electronica. Ambience and mood. Close your eyes and tell me where you go?

Orbit (Remix) -

Orbit (Remix) - Artist: Album: Collection ONE, From: Riverside, Please Support and purchase 'Orbit (Remix)' from ProjectOpus.com (http://www.projectopus.com/austinmartini), Date Posted: July 4, 2006

A remix of orbit with flanging. A musical fantasy of what the earth must feel like with all of that clutter orbiting.

The Swans (Remix-No Drums) -

The Swans (Remix-No Drums) - Artist: Album: Collection ONE, From: Riverside, Please Support and purchase 'The Swans (Remix-No Drums)' from ProjectOpus.com (http://www.projectopus.com/austinmartini), Date Posted: July 4, 2006

A cello only version of swans without the drums and cymbals. After many people complained about the percussion I remixed this version so that they could enjoy the cello in its full splendor.

Theme of the Cat Burglar -

Theme of the Cat Burglar - Artist: Album: Collection ONE, From: Riverside, Please Support and purchase 'Theme of the Cat Burglar' from ProjectOpus.com (http://www.projectopus.com/austinmartini), Date Posted: July 4, 2006

A free style jazz piece with an experimental percussion beat. Written to be a comedy stalker/cat burglar theme that would do well as a soundtrack for that kind of a scene.

Sea Foam Dream -

Sea Foam Dream - Artist: Album: Collection ONE, From: Riverside, Please Support and purchase 'Sea Foam Dream' from ProjectOpus.com (http://www.projectopus.com/austinmartini), Date Posted: July 4, 2006

Ambience. This is simply channeling a higher plane while sitting at the keys. Good for relaxation.
