New Album of Cinematic Sadness

Bob Good • 14 March 2019

New Production Music Released

It's a great feeling when a library releases a whole album dedicated to your work!

Not just the odd track here and there, but a whole cohesive album.

My sixth "solo" (all my own work) album, "Cinematic Sadness" is now available for licensing exclusively from the Boom! Music Library.

Recording for this album started tentatively in 2015, with the majority happening in late 2017 / early 2018. It wasn't a quick, cheap project.

They describe it as "a set of beautifully crafted cinematic themes capturing the essence of grief, regret and heartache."

That's twelve tracks packed full of emotion.

My previous album for this library used mechanical pianos, contrasting these with the beauty of a string quartet and woodwinds. Whilst those tracks were quickly being used on TV around the world, I wanted to get away from their “mechanicalness” and write some with more emotion.

I may have gone a bit over the top!

Over an extended period between 2015 and 2018, I got various instrumentalists into the studio and bit by bit we built up the components which went to make this album. I’m playing a plastic tom tom on one of the tracks, but the majority of the work, as always, was done by more talented musicians and I’m grateful to them all for spending days “out in the country” and making this cohesive set of pieces.
