A close cousin to last week’s The Stormy Sea, this piece continues the atmosphere of nautical adventure and mystery.

This week’s cue comes from a forthcoming puzzle game with a nautical theme. This music accompanies an overhead view of the world map, festooned with treasure-hunting, monsters, and other hallmarks of adventure.

This week’s cue is some playful and eccentric underscore from a forthcoming puzzle game. And nothing says playful and eccentric like a bass clarinet.

This week’s music comes from the political thriller The F-Zone. To accompany a quietly satisfying moment for the beleaguered protagonists, I took a soaring “adventure” theme from earlier in the movie and rearranged it into a gentle interlude for harp and alto flute. Never forget: composers like recycling.
