Looking for Composer – Nostalgic, Magical Podcast Outro Music (Original Score)
I’m looking for a composer to create a short original piece of music (approximately 15–30 seconds) for use in a podcast episode.
The tone should feel nostalgic, warm, and slightly magical, inspired by early 2000s children’s film soundtracks (for example, orchestral/piano-driven scores with emotional depth and a sense of wonder).
I am not looking for a copy or recreation of any existing track, but rather an original composition that captures a similar feeling and atmosphere.
Musical direction:
Soft piano as a foundation
Light strings or orchestral elements
Subtle chimes, bells, or ambient textures for a “magical” feel
Gentle emotional build (not too dramatic)
I’m especially looking for:
a soft, reflective opening
a subtle emotional lift halfway through
a warm, resolved ending (not abrupt)
Usage:
Podcast outro / closing moment
Dialogue may be layered over part of the track
Must be fully original and safe for commercial use
Deliverables:
Final audio file (WAV preferred)
Optionally separated stems (if available)
If possible, please include samples of similar work.
References (we are mostly inspired by the whimsy, nostalgic, and conclusive music from the Thomas The Tank Engine Franchise. Please note we are NOT looking for a track specifically made for children)
Reference (for tone and mood only):
“The Happy Ending” – Thomas and the Magic Railroad
