60s, 70sAction, Comedy, Cool

87 BPM in G, a laid-back but tightly locked funk-soul groove with bass, drums, electric guitar and brass punctuation, saxophone carrying the smooth lines. Title and pace suggest the vault job itself — deliberate, unhurried, pleased with itself. At 2:29 it's one of the roomier cuts and sits closest in feel to the 85 BPM strut.

128bpm in E minor, matching the album's uptempo action tier but pitched darker and more furtive, with bongos, funk kit, guitar, organ and stabbing horns. Good for the middle of the job — moving fast while trying not to be seen, tension played for laughs.

Retro, 70sCheeky, Comedy, Dramedy

At 90bpm in A minor this is the slowest and most sultry track here, a loping spy-funk groove of bongos, drums and bass with flute, electric and acoustic guitar, synth and male vocal colour giving it a worldly, exotica edge. The half-tempo swagger and 2:28 running time make it the best fit for surveillance, seduction or a deliberately absurd stakeout.

A cheerful 90bpm funk-soul number in A major with organ, trumpet and full horns over drums, bass and electric guitar — the most overtly period-retro cue in the collection. Fun and confident across 2:29, suited to anything that wants an unmistakable seventies lounge stamp.

The fastest and sunniest cue on the set: 160bpm surf-tinged garage rock in bright A major, driven by kit, walking bass, twangy electric guitar and vintage keys. No mystery angle here — it's pure snack-ad silliness that runs hard from the top and lands on a clean button.

At 170bpm in G this is the album's flat-out chase, driving bongos and drums under fast horn figures, guitar, strings and a synth line for spy-movie edge. Energized start to finish with little let-up — cut it against foot pursuits, getaway driving or rapid-fire quick cuts.

A New Orleans-style read of the New Year's standard at a strolling 108bpm in F, with barrelhouse piano, clarinet and a full brass front line of trumpet, trombone and tuba over upright bass and sleigh bells. It moves from a relaxed jazz-band saunter to a warm collective chorus that lands squarely for a countdown or last-call toast.

Cheerful but unhurried, it works as a wide-smile background bed that still resolves on a proper band cadence.

A strutting 107 BPM funk walk in C minor built on bongos and congas over a fat bass line, with trumpet and trombone punching out the hook. The swagger is comic rather than menacing — a character introduction rather than a chase. Suits the moment a crew member is introduced with a name card, or a slow-motion entrance through a casino lobby.
