Listen to "Street Cred" from the "Zeus" Soundtrack

For the duration of the summer, I’ll be posting music written specifically for “Zeus”. Some or all of these songs will be included on my next release – “The Zeus Collective”, which will be available for free download upon completion.
Here’s Track 2, an instrumental – “Street Cred (Volcano Casualty)”- from the upcoming “Zeus” soundtrack/ep/score (?):

Quite different from my usual, acoustic-based stuff. I wasn’t shooting for any particular vibe, just something to use for any number of scenes. Believe it or not, the beat sample is a stock clip from the GarageBand library with a couple of effects added. I was tooling around with it sometime last year and figured I’d use it eventually. Well, here it is.
Notes:

  • The drones floating around the track are courtesy of Lindsey Glover, who recorded an ep’s worth of ethereal stuff for her senior thesis project a few years back. I thought her first crack at music was quite rad, so I kifed it (thanks, Lindsey).
  • Keyboard parts were played on my grandfather’s old Casio, mic’d directly into the Mbox with enough reverb to give the keys some sustain.
