New Jersey composer and producer Steve Trimble brings us music in several genres including Pop, Blues, Folk, Hip-Hop, and Ambient. After years at Berklee College of Music and a number of years writing lyrics for his music, Steve did a U-turn and now is composing dynamic instrumental tracks for TV, film, radio, and ad campaigns. Check out "Mark Builds a Clock" and "Joe Got Busted" -- two of our favorites. The line forms at the rear for Steve's fun, laidback music -- better get on board!
In the mid-80s, Steve bought a life-changing cassette tape entitled "Look What The Cat Dragged In," by Poison. After receiving a Songwriting degree and a B.A. in Music from Berklee College of Music, he pursued songwriting for several years. Soon, however, Steve discovered the pure pleasure of creating music using multiple instruments, keyboards and other electronica, sans lyrics. Now armed to conquer the TV/Film music scene, Steve has switched from writing lyrical songs to recording instrumentals. We are delighted he is uploading his music at our site for our clients.
Just an acoustic guitar pickin' a blues tune, kinda tricky and a little devious. This one'll make you want to get out on the dance floor and put a few moves on your cool little mama! Instrumental, Blues Music, Country Blues
A cowboy groove, drums, bass, slide guitar, banjo, a little blues harp. This track has a lot of old west flavor, but still remains relevant and modern. Perfect for anything from an old west documentary, to a movie/ television scene set in the south. Instrumental, Country Music, Country Rock
Feel as though you've lost your balance trying to find the beat here. Soon, it falls in line, but not without a little dissonance. Instrumental, Dramatic Music, Ethereal Music
A little Indian, a dash of Latin flavor, and a hip-hop element make this track adventurous, and a little unnerving. Instrumental, New Age Music, Ethnic Fusion
The bass makes it bounce, but the guitar makes it move. You've just met that special someone, he/she has delivered to you a new outlook on life. But then, you begin to have your doubts, only to find you just need to relax and go with these wonderful feelings. Instrumental, Pop Music, Pop Groove
Jazzy keys, hip-hop drums, and a swirling synth. This one has a world music element, and is a bit mysterious. The chord progression seems to go on forever, with little resolution, or is the track one big resolution? Instrumental, Electronic Music, Ambient (pending)
A little threatening, Edgy Darkness still finds a relaxing place. Bar scene, the other guy is a little bigger than you are, but what the heck! Sneaking, lurking, hiding, detecting, playing dead, spying on your gal -- many fun uses for Edgy Darkness. Instrumental, Hip Hop Music, Hip Hop Instrumental
This groove sets in so smooth. The chaos builds, and things get more dissonant. Then things get even groovier! Very mellow little chillout number for romance, flirting, out on the town, making the scene, at the club, hanging out. Way cool! Instrumental, Electronic Music, Electro
Did you hear that noise? I think it came from the back yard. More specifically, the shed. It's creeping me out, better go have a look. Instrumental, Dangerous Music, Edgy Music
A laid back hip-hop track. That synth is so smooth! It's ladies night here in 1989, come enjoy a beverage. Instrumental, Hip Hop Music, Hip Hop Instrumental
A steady build up of guitars, all playing their own dreamy melodies. Some moderate percussion adds a little flavor too. A very nostalgic tune. You're driving home from a cross country trip, a new man/ woman, thinking about all of the life lessons you learned on your journey. Instrumental, Dramatic Music, Ethereal Music
Synth, strings, keys, a disturbing ambient piece. Perhaps the crew can make it through the black hole. Or, the Eskimo's find an old artifact in a frozen cave. Instrumental, Action Music, Action Impending Buildup (pending)
This track begins with keys and slide guitar. It picks up the pace with some slow strings and a sweet synth line. Instrumental, Dramatic Music, Contemplative Music
Intense, dissonant with an industrial beat. There are many different instruments here, mixing together, and fighting for center stage. Sun Ra meets Dr. Dre. Instrumental, Electronic Music, Ambient (pending)
It's a day without a care in the world. Cheerful Hip-hop, a little jazzy, all groove. A sleazy synth line and a half time feel make this track fun, mysterious, and a little bit raunchy. Instrumental, Hip Hop Music, Hip Hop Instrumental
A laid back hip-hop track. That synth is so smooth! It's ladies night here in 1989, come have a drink. Instrumental, Hip Hop Music, Hip Hop Instrumental
This track hits so hard, you'll sway from side to side with it. It could be mistaken for a Kanye beat, if it weren't so quirky. Play it at the club, or the disco, it works in both settings. Instrumental, Hip Hop Music, Hip Hop Instrumental
Get ready to get your groove on, once this party starts, it doesn't stop. Perfect for a slo-mo getaway scene, or time traveling from Studio 54 in the 80's to a 50's jazz club. Instrumental, Hip Hop Music, Hip Hop Instrumental
A trippy hip-hop beat that sounds like it came from space and landed in someone's backyard. It's got a call and response type melody. Instrumental, Hip Hop Music, Hip Hop Instrumental
Woodwinds, strings, and upright bass on this track make it a little dark, a little contemplative, and a little bit playful. Says the wolf, "I'll huff and puff, and blow your house down." Instrumental, Dangerous Music, Dark Music
Take the bass for a walk with this jazzy, acoustic instrumental. It's got a laid back groove and a Wes Montgomery meets early pop guitar melody. Instrumental, Jazz Music, Smooth Jazz
Just a groovin' acoustic guitar blues with a few tricks thrown in. Rural Americana Roots music. Family & kids, beefing, bar fight, making hot love, chasing women, sipping beers, Nascar rally. Chilling after a hard day's work, bar lounge honky tonk. Folksy, down home, rural, fun, heartwarming... Instrumental, Americana Music, Americana Roots
A percussion groove combines some finger-picked guitar, bass, and smooth chords to for an introspective feel. Could work for a bank commercial (free checking!), a dramatic scene (high school reunion), or a documentary about some hard working men and women. Instrumental, Pop Music, Dreampop
A percussive countdown to a thoughtful guitar melody. A little jazzy, a little folksy, all feeling. "Mark, baby, wha'chu up to?" Mark, "D'oh, not much, you wanta join me?" Great corporate music for Cracker Barrel, The Mosey In Cafe, Mama's Home Cooking, and other tasty morsel emporiums. Instrumental, Pop Music, Alternative Pop
Slide guitar and jazzy chords are always the best combo. We've found paradise! ...and it's gone. Great music for TV of film credits. Instrumental, Dramatic Music, Whimsical Music
Do you love cheesy love ballads? So do I. This tongue-in-cheek Neil Diamondesque gem hits the nail on the head. Sparse percussion, creamy keyboards, mellow bass, and soothing guitar back up the vocals, a mix between Johnny Cash, and the great Neil himself. Male Vocals, Pop Music, Soft Pop
First he got busted, but then Joe busted out! Some steel and some slide build up to an exciting conclusion. CSI processing lab, two cowpokes beefin', barroom scenes, tweens stealing cars, making love to your woman or ridin' your Harley. Instrumental, Folk Music, Contemporary Folk
This is a dreamy, orchestral piece. Some synth pads, horns, and light percussion back a beautiful toy piano melody. Builds into the stratosphere! Upbeat corporate track or College Graduation Day -- any scene where folks jump up on their chairs and shout, to no one in particular, "We made it!" Instrumental, Dramatic Music, Ethereal Music
A mildly aggressive mid-tempo piece. Both bluesy and atmospheric. Smooth guitar lick, flute adding to the tone a little bit. The drums give this one a double time feel, you don't know if you want to kick back and relax to this one, or shake that thing. Instrumental, Rock Music, Art Rock
Bluesy intro, into a reggae groove, reminiscent of Claptons take on "I Shot The Sheriff." Don't miss the nasty slide guitar action. Instrumental, Blues Music, Electric Blues
There is a steady addition of guitars in this track. It begins with a little finger picking, evoking images of the beginning of a long trip home. Add some slide guitar on top, and the journey is suddenly more interesting. Instrumental, Folk Music, Finger-Picked Guitar
Smooth bass, kickin' drums, and a guitar that will get you moving. Laidback Latin vibe reminiscent of mid 1970s Santana. Beach bars, ocean cruises, ad campaigns for Bacardi Rum, bikinis, yachts, honeymoon getaways, South Beach boutique hotels.

Whimsical and contemplative, like thinking about a future one could share with another -- or NOT! "Josie, honey, I could luv ya much better if it weren't for all your angst!" Instrumental, Pop Music, Tween Pop
Do they still make cartoons? This track is made up of cartoon sound effects, and a kick and snare drum to hold the beat. Theme song anybody? Good thing it's only a minute long, otherwise, listeners might find themselves in straight jackets. Instrumental, Drum Music, Dramatic Drums Chaotic
The cartoon beat is comprised of cartoon sound effects and a simple kick and snare drum beat. This variation is a little slower than the 60 second version, listen twice before insanity kicks in. A modern day Tom & Jerry would appreciate this one. Instrumental, Childrens Music, Childrens Instrumentals
This track hits hard, with a verse reminiscent of "Eye Of The Tiger," and chorus that gets the feet moving. Good background music for a club scene, or any light-hearted scene with an urban edge. Instrumental, Hip Hop Music, Hip Hop Instrumental
