STYE1135 · Marimba Chronicles · Ilan Kunik
2:09·156 bpm·E flat·3 versions
Underscore, CorporateAtmosphere, Atmospheric, Calm

The fastest of the album's gentler cues: marimba runs at 156bpm in E flat, cushioned by sustained strings, piano and light percussion over a soft bass pulse. Warm and nostalgic rather than driving, it moves quickly but stays soft-edged, suiting reflective childhood or family recollection sequences. The added strings make this the most lyrical bed on the record.

The Vibe of Vibes
STYE1135 · Marimba Chronicles · Ilan Kunik
2:02·110 bpm·Em·3 versions
Underscore, CorporateAtmosphere, Atmospheric, Calm

A stripped marimba, bass and percussion trio in E minor at 110bpm, with no piano and no strings — the leanest and most neutral cue here. The minor key and steady mid-tempo pulse give it an investigative, procedural feel rather than a sweet one, good for lab work, medical explainers or a question being examined. Loops easily behind dialogue.

STYE1135 · Marimba Chronicles · Ilan Kunik
1:59·86 bpm·G·3 versions
Underscore, CorporateAtmosphere, Atmospheric, Children

At 86bpm in G this is the slowest, most floating cue on the album, marimba figures ringing out over piano, soft percussion and bass. The unhurried tempo and bright major key suit underwater, nature and slow-reveal science footage where the picture needs room to breathe. Calm and forward-leaning without pushing.

STYE1135 · Marimba Chronicles · Ilan Kunik
2:16·120 bpm·D·3 versions
Underscore, CorporateAtmosphere, Atmospheric, Children

A 120bpm marimba motor in D with piano, light percussion and bass, and the longest running time on the album at 2:15. The title's sense of constant motion comes from the even, unbroken pulse — useful for process, progress and assembly footage that needs momentum but not drama. Neutral enough to sit under heavy narration.

Glossy Meadow
STYE1135 · Marimba Chronicles · Ilan Kunik
2:01·134 bpm·F·3 versions
Underscore, CorporateAtmosphere, Atmospheric, Calm

Bright, quick marimba patterning at 134bpm in F, softened by piano and a relaxed percussion and bass foundation. The pastoral title matches its calm, sunlit character: fast on the surface, unhurried underneath. Fits open-air children's and light-lifestyle footage.

Marimba Landscape
STYE1135 · Marimba Chronicles · Ilan Kunik
2:11·170 bpm·G·3 versions
Underscore, CorporateAtmosphere, Atmospheric, Children

The most energetic cue on the record at 170bpm in G, with rapid marimba figures, piano, percussion and bass creating a shimmering, continuous surface. The speed reads as busy and inquisitive rather than aggressive, suiting data visualisation, innovation reels and wide landscape flyovers. Sustains a single bright energy across 2:11.

Naive Marimba
STYE1135 · Marimba Chronicles · Ilan Kunik
2:02·116 bpm·C·3 versions
Underscore, CorporateAtmosphere, Atmospheric, Calm

Marimba, percussion and bass only, at a comfortable 116bpm in C major — no piano, no synth, the plainest and most childlike statement on the album. Its simple diatonic figures and light pulse are built for pre-school and educational content where the music must stay out of the way. Neutral, sweet, easy to edit.

Odd Singularities
STYE1135 · Marimba Chronicles · Ilan Kunik
1:60·130 bpm·A·3 versions
Underscore, CorporateAtmosphere, Atmospheric, Children

A 130bpm marimba pattern in A with piano, percussion and bass, its title pointing at the more curious, slightly quizzical side of the collection. Steady and forward-moving, it works for footage about anomalies, discoveries and experiments that stays optimistic rather than tense. Bright major tonality keeps it neutral.

Precious Moment
STYE1135 · Marimba Chronicles · Ilan Kunik
2:07·102 bpm·Am·3 versions
Underscore, CorporateAtmosphere, Atmospheric, Calm

The only minor-key slow cue here: 102bpm in A minor, with marimba, piano, soft percussion and bass sitting in a tender, reflective space. The gentle melancholy suits quiet emotional beats — a goodbye, a memory, a patient story — without becoming heavy. Calm throughout, with room for narration.

Dreamy Marimba
STYE1135 · Marimba Chronicles · Ilan Kunik
1:57·98 bpm·C·3 versions
Underscore, CorporateAtmosphere, Atmospheric, Calm

A soft 98bpm cue in C where marimba is paired with synth pads rather than piano, giving the most ambient, hazy texture on the album over quiet percussion and bass. Slow and dreamlike, it suits sleep, imagination and bedtime-story sequences as well as gentle tech atmospheres. The shortest track at 1:57.
