Jim Underwood
California Composer Jim Underwood is a remarkably inventive multi-instrumentalist. As a touring musician and an independent producer he brings a jaw-dropping versatility and playful creativity to his work. As a former copywriter for a major East Coast AM-FM radio station, he understands the musical constraints of voiceover work as well as the nuances of incidental pieces. Through his association with Live Nation, he’s worked for numerous national acts including Bruce Springsteen, Norah Jones, Tori Amos, and others. We are psyched to have Jim on board with his hot new tracks!
Jim Underwood often refers to himself as a singer/songwriter and obscure novelist. Actually, his fiction has been published by Warner Books in the United States and overseas and by both Crown and E.P. Dutton. (non-fiction) He’s currently writing a screenplay, but assures us his first love is music.

Instrumental, Latin Music, Bossa Nova
Two full progressions of the basic rhythm of L.A. Dawn followed by a third progression with a fade. Use as an unobtrusive bed under dialogue or as an extension of the full track, or... Instrumental, Dramatic Music, Calm Music

Soundscape for the inhabitants of a dark maelstrom where forces of good and evil lurk to do battle. Sudden bursts of rushing energy. Syncopated reverberations. Are those faint church bells? Beware of this dimension it will storm your mind. Film. Video games. Instrumental, Action Music, Action Thriller Soundscape
A soothing if melancholy gateway to a daydream. A delicate melody played on a classical guitar supported by a jazz trio and strings takes you south via the signature rhythms of Brazil. Great to establish that special romantic atmosphere Bossa Nova does so well for film, travel promos or commercials. Instrumental, Latin Music, Bossa Nova
An ominously rumbling soundscape of the deep. Hear cavitations and shuddering hull noises along with an eerie rattle and whine as a dark behemoth vessel approaches and then slides by probing the watery void. Great for anti-submarine warfare scenes or something otherworldly in film or video games. Instrumental, Action Music, Action Thriller Soundscape
The classic John Henry Hopkins Christmas carol rendered with mandolin, classical guitar, djembe, shaker and a rich pallet of strings to set your holiday mood. Decorate the tree.

Instrumental, Action Music, Action Thriller Soundscape
A grand piano spills poignant rolling chords into the arms of subtle but building strings. A theme for that moment before the epiphany that turns things around, or for the heartbreaking realization of loss.

Instrumental, Rock Music, Surf Rock
A smooth and somewhat zany track utilizing the standard jazz quartet of guitar, upright bass, piano and drums plus a sly electric fiddle.

A tune reminiscent of the swing bands that emerged in the middle '30s complete with "walking bass line," baritone sax, brass section and vintage Gibson jazz guitar. Effective as a mood setter in nostalgic scenes or to infer the values of an earlier time in commercial music, or perhaps just for fun. Instrumental, Jazz Music, Swing | Big Band
Driving surf rock rhythm with the clean shimmer of a vintage Mosrite electric guitar and the counter melody of a Hammond B-3 backed by pounding bass and drums culminating in the thunderous roar of crashing waves against a rocky shore. Great for So Cal action or beach scenes. Like classic Ventures. Instrumental, Rock Music, Surf Rock
Hard driving and edgy voice over bed opening with an attention grabbing device. Meant to lay a foundation under that "screamer" promo. High energy throughout. Great for extreme sports, concerts, and anything that needs an "in your face" sales approach. Lots of crunch and bite with aggressive drums. Instrumental, Rock Music, Thrash Metal
A smooth, medium tempo Chet Akins style logo complete with ticking clock. A perfect opening for local color programming, informal talk show, travelogue, human interest feature or similar.

Classic Chet Atkins medium tempo riff with electric nylon string guitar, piano, upright bass and snare played with wire brushes.

Slip back into the mists of a forgotten time. Sense the mystical poignancy of a lost way of life. Close your eyes and see the ghostly images of Cherokee braves as they move through the shadowy forests of the Smokey Mountains. Hear the rhythms of the hunt. Then listen as the dream steals away. Instrumental, Dramatic Music, Ethereal Music
A few soft notes from a Hammond B-3 lead into a soaring melody balanced against a rhythm reflecting the restrained but always potent energy of a quiet sea.

Easy, serenely slow moving melodic elements floating over a gently relentless rhythm. It's early morning in L. A. Perhaps the action hasn't started yet, or maybe he's quietly leaving her place... Pull your jacket around you. Step out into the cool, gray, first light. The mood is set... Instrumental, Dramatic Music, Calm Music
Smooth Bossa Nova ballad dealing with the poignant realization that no matter how much you may love someone there are some mistakes you can't make up for. A sensitive male vocal supported by the classic Bossa Nova quartet of nylon string guitar, piano, upright bass and percussion. Sad but beautiful. Male Vocals, Latin Music, Bossa Nova
Driving slap bass alternating with a staccato snare and accents from processed electric guitars. An urban feel and a sense of impending action. Engaging edgy moody & bluesy. Good for dialogue or the addition other elements. Picture our hero driving through mean streets at night, watching the bad guy, Instrumental, Action Music, Action Moderate Rock
As if Morrison and Hendrix met, shared pharmaceuticals then gradually fought their way back to consciousness.

Instrumental, Rock Music, 1960s Rock
A mandolin slowly weaves a mood of romantic expectation over the soft chords of an acoustic guitar supported by a subtle, dramatic bowed bass. Sensuous, slow tempo sets the tone for just the right moment of intense poignancy. Romantic drama filled with longing, sentimentality, bittersweet memories. Instrumental, European Music, Italian Music
A mellow song about the quiet and often romantic moments on Christmas Eve when all the preparations are in place, the kids are finally asleep and the parents can steal some time for themselves.
