Beachcombin'
This 60's surf rock song has the requisite twangy electric guitar, moving bass, rhythm guitar, and of course the all-important cheesy classic Hammond B-3 organ. Modally, it’s a little on the dark side, with some Dick Dale attitude and shades of the “Hawaii 5-O” theme song thrown in.

Below The Surface
A nod to John Williams’ hair-raising “Jaws” soundtrack with stringed bass, high strings, and an eerie, low Atmosphere synth patch throughout. There's even a slight callback to Hitchcock's "Psycho" in there, too.
