2FM032 Anthemic Orchestral Rock
Posted on Mar 07, 2018
2FM032 Anthemic Orchestral Rock is an instrumental album that combines the sounds of an epic, stadium-filling rock band with a sumptuous, sweeping string orchestra. Every track blossoms from tender, intimate atmospheres to expansive, enigmatic soundscapes bursting with colour, energy and power. The album takes influences from acoustic folk textures (Growing Up) to prog rock (Epic Ascent), and glam rock (Grit & Determination) to atmospheric rock (Unfolding Beauty). Lyrical and motivational, the music bristles with tensions between darkness and light, urban and wilderness, and grit and glamour. Moods range from relaxed (Summer Festival) to determined (Bright Energy), Americana swagger (Determined Inspiration) to flowing (Positive Flow). Following from 2FM019 Cinematic Guitar Moods, this is the second 2FM album written by Bradley Farmer and Sebastian Truman. Many tracks from the album will pair well with epic action picture, extreme sports, and the great outdoors, as well as for corporate and motivational use, drama and a variety of advertising applications. This larger-than-life music will flourish in a centre-stage, cinematic setting, but all tracks are available in a variety of versions and stems to tone down for underscores. Each track comprises two moods – usually tender and calm, building to powerful and uplifting – which each work well in their own right as standalone tracks.
