Hello, Fall

And just like that, summer is winding down. 🍂 We hope everyone had a wonderful summer!

Now, we’re looking ahead to cooler days, changing leaves, and cozy fall moments.

Speaking of cozy… 🎶🍁

We had the pleasure of composing the score for Love at Look Lodge, and this scene gives us all the warm, autumnal feelings we’re starting to crave. It feels like a little preview of what’s in store for us soon—crisp air, colourful leaves, and a cozy soundtrack to match.

🎬 We have been composing themes and stings for CBC News since 2009. Our latest project is the sonic branding for CBC Indigenous.

A 5-second musical sting designed to make an impact in just a few seconds.

Purposeful. Distinctive. And unmistakably CBC.

Working on "Superbuns" was an absolute joy from start to finish. The characters were irresistibly cute, the animation had that timeless, classic charm, and the world gave us so much room to play musically. Every episode felt like stepping into a bright, expressive sandbox where we could explore a wide range of styles and emotional colours.

In this particular scene, we leaned into a Randy Newman–inspired *Toy Story* vibe — playful, slightly mischievous, and full of heart. That meant warm piano at the center, brushed drums, light orchestration, and those cheeky harmonic turns that make everything feel both sincere and a little tongue-in-cheek. The melody had that storytelling quality — almost like it’s winking at the audience while still carrying genuine emotion. It was all about capturing that sense of wonder and personality that makes animated characters feel alive.

And then… we flipped the switch.

When the robot hit its moment, we went full metal. Big distorted guitars, driving double-kick energy, over-the-top attitude — the complete contrast to the earlier warmth. Letting the robot absolutely shred gave the scene this explosive payoff and reminded us how far we could stretch the show’s musical palette.

Projects like this don’t come around every day. Huge gratitude to the team for letting us explore, experiment, and rock out in equal measure. 🎶🐰🤘

Scoring this flashback scene for Rocket Monkeys was a great reminder of how fluid composing for children’s media needs to be.

What started as a light, nostalgic cue quickly evolved into something with more emotional depth and comedic timing beats layered in. In kids’ shows especially, tone can shift in an instant—one moment heartfelt, the next totally absurd—and the music has to pivot just as fast without losing cohesion.

For this scene, we leaned into that flexibility: weaving in softer textures to support the “memory” feel, then snapping into playful, energetic motifs to match the characters’ antics. It’s a constant balancing act between storytelling, humor, and pacing.

Being able to adapt on the fly isn’t just helpful—it’s essential. That willingness to rethink, reshape, and re-score in real time is what ultimately brings these moments to life.

🏴‍☠️🎶 Pirate flags up! We scored an epic pirate-themed scene in **Lego City No Limits!** — and let’s just say… it felt like home.

The music swashes and buckles with vibes inspired by Pirates of the Caribbean — big brass, rolling drums, and enough adventure to make a plastic minifig walk the plank. 🏝️⚓

Lucky for us, our team is basically a crew of pirates already (minus the questionable hygiene), so channeling our inner sea dogs came naturally. Give us a studio, some coffee, and a dramatic ship chase? We’re in our element. 🏴‍☠️🔥
