One of the most striking features of our picture book app The Gift – and there are many – is the beautiful music which accompanies each scene, all of which was put together by the wonderful Alexander and J Johnston at the CMI Music Group in Salford, Greater Manchester.
Here’s a short film where Alex and J talk about their work on The Gift. It’s a little rough and ready at the moment (our Marketing & PR Manager Sean Smith insists his Flip camera produces “broadcast quality footage”. We’re not so sure) but we hope you’ll get some idea of the effort these two talented and lovely people put in on our behalf.
Alex and J were also responsible for the haunting theme song to The Gift and to celebrate The Gift app’s imminent release, we’ve been allowed to give away downloadable mp3s of the theme in both vocal and instrumental versions. Simply click on this link, select and click ‘Media Pack: The Gift Theme Song by Mamma Freedom’ from the list and download as usual from there.
You’ll also find lyrics for the song and photography and a biography of the band in the package.
Let us know what you think.
UPDATE: You can now download The Gift here.
