Mallet Moods

The latest release from Modus Operandi Production Music is Mallet Moods (MOPM-096), filled with subtle motion for stories of growth, optimism, and change. In the quiet neural pathways of business, progress often happens between the notes, in the micro steps no one sees. Mallet Moods is crafted for exactly that space: background music that breathes, but also propels.

Classical Lo-Fi

Orchestral motifs float on modern chill beats. In a world that moves too loudly, Lo-Fi Classical offers something in between: orchestral motifs that float, heartbeats that pulse in half-light, and rhythmic textures that ground without overwhelming.

Buddha Bowls

Spirituals

February is Black History Month in the US and Canada, and of course music has played a pivotal role in the African American community throughout history, serving as both a powerful form of expression and a purposeful means of resistance. This new Analog Champion collection Spirituals features a cappella choir arrangements of public domain Negro spirituals by Seattle’s Tiffany Wilson that pay homage their unique sonic history through a variety of preservation and archival techniques (including vintage microphones, analog tape, vinyl and wire recorders).
