Looking for Composer – Nostalgic, Magical Podcast Outro Music (Original Score)

Remote, USA Full-time Posted 2026-06-06

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 Timestamp: 6:40 https://youtu.be/ty1hcYa1Oxs?si=Fk8W32vc5xqT_vrD&t=400 “He’s a Really Useful Engine” – Thomas and the Magic Railroad https://youtu.be/ou9242HvEGg?si=R7G16iLQ7DDLOQO1 "Dear Christopher" - Thomas The Tank Engine https://youtu.be/EP-5bNcSo3A?si=ayR4-RQZ3ju9F2Vr These references are provided for emotional tone and style only. I am looking for a fully original composition, not a recreation or imitation of these tracks. Apply tot his job Apply To this Job
