Can anyone show me examples of the Chameleon and Music 2 Hues libraries used by various companies for instructional videos, and commercials? I'd love to see what it sounds like on the screen.

I have a few examples!

Also, I really want to know who composed these tracks!

UPDATE: I found out who did, thanks to BMI Songview. The composer's name is Kirk Cirillo. He was also interviewed by InterActivity in 1996.

I found even more information on the Chameleon Music/Music 2 Hues composers thanks to BMI Songview (repertoire.bmi.com).
The names of the music composers who did lots of music for Music 2 Hues are:
Andrzej Rejman (ZAIKS)
Kirk Cirillo (composed pretty much all of the Chameleon Music tracks, ASCAP)
Michael Ferenci (ASCAP)
Rafal Smolinski (ZAIKS)
Stephan Sechi (ASCAP)
Timothy Butler (ASCAP)

Zwiazek Autorów i Kompozytorów Scenicznych/Society of Authors and Stage Composers. It's a Polish performance-rights organization.

This is 100% true! Music 2 Hues was formerly known as Chameleon Music Production Library!

The theme for "Creative Living with Sheryl Borden" is "Homeward", from M2H2 - Movie Scores.
The theme for "You Should Know" is "Values", from M2H8 - Short Takes.

Wow, no wonder why PBS uses this music a lot!

I know! KENW has used these libraries a lot since the late 1990s!

I found the name of the track in this video:
"12 Cylinders" from Action! (1995).

EVEN MORE INFORMATION, this time about Chameleon Music.
Another composer was involved in the Chameleon Music tracks, named Mark Schunk.
So I guess every track was Kirk Cirillo (ASCAP) 50%, Mark Schunk (NS) 50%.

Actually, I did most of the writing and playing. Wrote and played all the parts on an Ensoniq TS10. ONI would give Kirk a floppy and owned an Ensoniq TS12. He then mixed, edited amd mastered all the tracks. I was paid a flat fee for each composition. He would dub in some actual guitar and Mark would sometimes replace or add to the drum tracks. My name is Ritch Speer Spfld. MA.

YOU'RE the one who composed the Chameleon Music tracks? I didn't know that! That's so awesome!!! Would you happen to have the original masters of the tracks?
