Bespoke Music Composition

Creativity… is simply doing what no one else thought to

Original music is our bread and butter. But the way it sounds is anything but…

From 2 second stings to full feature film scores, we’ve delivered music for some of the world’s most forward-thinking directors, agencies and brands.

ANTI
OBVIOUS

We build our work from the ground up.

We design unique sounds and invent one-off custom instruments both with physical materials or virtually in software.

F**k generic loops and recycling off-the-shelf presets.

Time to be brave…

I’ve worked with a fair few companies in the past, and none of them come close to what you guys delivered. Dedicated, knowledgeable and incredibly talented. When we heard the work, it blew us all away.

_Endless creative possibilities…

(without the round the houses)

We understand for some clients choosing to produce a track from scratch can feel like a gamble.

Trying to define what you want your music to be is a daunting task and it can feel impossible to accurately describe what’s in your head.

Our revolutionary approach to briefing and developing original music eliminates the uncertainty from commissioning an original soundtrack.

It simplifies the unnecessarily tricky process of getting your ideas across, whilst revealing ‘hadn’t thought of that’ ways to tell your story with audio.

Ideas that deliver both creatively AND strategically (that all stakeholders buy into, not try to squash or water down).

Not just on brief… but beyond brief.

_Gongs & all that

Work that gets noticed

_Ready for a chat?

People work with people, not companies.

We were raised on good manners, reliability and rolling your sleeves up and putting in the graft. Look after the small things and the bigger picture takes care of itself.

Because there or thereabouts… is nowhere near.

_music should bring something to the party, not just be sonic wallpaper…

We understand how music fits in as just one element amongst many in a project.

We know where to leave space and when to let the soundtrack take centre stage.

We approach every composition asking what it should do, as opposed to what it has to sound like. This means we deliver work that is fresh and unexpected, yet always perfectly feels like an extension of you and what you’re trying to achieve.

Be it delicate and sparse or impactful and energetic – we make it our business to use music to bring your vision to life in the most unignorable way possible.

The Futz Butler have been a pleasure to work with from day one. The work they produced was exciting, challenging and original - taking us out of our comfort zone whilst still hitting the brief and expressing the brand. Their process and the original way they approach the work is not only fascinating, but effective. It’s been a joy.​
