Halloween / Dark / QuirkySuggested Production Type

Found 257 tracks, displaying page 1 of 6

The music we keep in this area is closely related to Horror, but with tongue-in-cheek and perhaps a sense of the bizarre or quirky. This music can be chaotic or "wonky", like a creepy, odd machine, or it can have the style of a bizarre cabaret, or a weird and bizarre haunted house. The works of Tim Burton (Edward Scissorhands, Corpse Bride, The Nightmare Before Christmas) and Henry Selick (Coraline) are useful references. And of course, this music works great in all kinds of Halloween productions.

Existing in a hinterland between music & sound design, these brooding washes of distant sound slither and twist with a deep, tormented anguish. The atonal sound beds come in a variety of versions and underscores that can be mixed, matched and interlinked to form a protracted backdrop of compelling moods. Matched in style with the Dream Valley Music titles, The Deep Dark, Mass Limit and Bloom. [Tempo: Very slow, Slow / 0 BPM]
