Descriptions
Read a short description of the included themes.
Spies in Time 1967 Main Title
The title sequence! Instead of starting with an explosion - Spies in Time 1967 begins with a ear catching piano driven theme that gives ample time to scroll introductory credits as well as genre flash with brass and electric guitar.
Spies in Time 1967: Recon and Assassination
Xylaphone, electric guitars and orchestratic sound make build tension as true patriot spies and enemy agents square off during a recon mission - that ends in assassination!
Spies in Time 1967: The Briefing
Flutes and brass lead an orchestra as our spies arrive at the home office for a briefing with the leader of the organization. The Briefing stands alone or supports the main title theme.
Spies in Time 1967: Romance in a Romantic Location
A slightly melancholic piano theme based around elements of the main theme, this track is perfect for a sweet and secret liaison. Romance in a Romantic Location stands along or supports the main title theme.
Spies in Time 1967: At the Casino
90% brass classics and 10% hip - At the Casino is a catchy tune the exudes coolness of the 60s casino - not the coin crashing sounds of Las Vegas but the elegance of high stakes baccarat on the French Riviera. At the Casino stands alone or supports the main title theme.
Spies in Time 1967: Chase and Escape
Chase and escape - cat and mouse. Electric guitar, piano and drums are supported by orchestra in a sequence that isnt directly violent - but represents spy vs spy squaring off over great distances. Chase and Escape stands alone or supports the main title theme.
Spies in Time 1967: The Evil Organization
Brass and deep strings are supported by orchestra in a sequence that provides an introduction to the evil organization - following a stooge or enemy agent into the heart of the darkness; it doesnt end well either for the agent. The Evil Organization stands alone or supports the main title theme.
Spies in Time 1967: The Car Chase
Traction and sirens - drums and genre brass band make this a track you will want to use when agents are being followed or traveling at high speeds! The Car Chase stands alone or supports the main title theme.
Spies in Time 1967: Ninja Attack at Night
Mysterious oriental sounds - with just a touch of 1960s genre camp. Bongos, fake koto and supporting brass make this immediately recognizable as a threat from the far east. Ninja Attack at Night stands alone or supports the main theme.
Spies in Time 1967: Enter the Enemy Lair
Main theme part 2 - entering the enemy lair features genre brass, jazzy piano accompaniment and supporting orchestra. Patriotic spies penetrate the enemy lair and take out their share of enemy agents and nameless minions. Enter the Enemy Lair stands alone or supports the main theme.
Spies in Time 1967: Captured by the Enemy
Slower electric guitar and orchestra with supporting piano make for a dark and threatening track - our spy is captured! A shift near the end of the track could be a daring escape. Captured by the Enemy stands alone or supports the main theme.
Spies in Time 1967: Romantic Denoument
Soft and romantic brass supported by orchestra make this a perfect accompaniment for either a romantic denoument with a double-agent of the last goodbye. Romantic Denoument fits well into other eras well - even back to the hard boiled era of the 40's or 50's. Romantic Denoument stands alone or supports the main theme.
Spies in Time 1967: Climactic Battle
Introduced by a derivative of the main theme - this track has a high energy turn around. Some creative editing can extend this track to make your battle longer. Climactic Battle stands alone or supports the main theme.
Spies in Time 1967: Nuclear Countdown
A ticking clock, brass and electric guitar build up the tension - this is the track where our agents have to defuse the nuclear bomb or turn around an enemy lair nuclear meltdown! Nuclear Countdown stands alone or supports the main theme.
Spies in Time 1967 Closing Theme
A mellow "run the credits" ending turn to the main theme - genre piano is supported by full orchestra. This track can, with easy editing, be easily looped to fit any credits length.
