Spoiled for Choice: Mix
May. 10th, 2008 12:08 pmI've never done this before! Tell me if it doesn't work!
So when I'm doing plotting (not so much the writing part, oddly), I have vast playlists I associate with different stories/chapters. I weeded SfC's playlist down into a corresponding soundtrack of sorts, which you might like, because some of the music is fun. I tend to pick more for a combination of lyrics, sound and general feel than exact lyrical correspondence (thus Two), but for some of them lyrics were very important to me. Overall, One, Five, Seven and Nine are definitely my favorite calls. Prologue's pretty nice as well.
I can't apologize enough for Chapter Six's. I wanted that particular song, covered by a female vocalist, with insistent base, and it was either Carlton or Jpop. So here we are. Three is like, a friend's baby brother's band, but shaddap, I like this song a lot.
Chapter: Song Title—Artist
Prologue: Ten Lives—Anousheh Khalili
One: On a Neck, On a Spit—Grizzly Bear
Two: Famous Blue Raincoat—Angela McCluskey & Tryptich
Three: With A Fire In Your Eyes—My Postscript
Four: Your Honor—Regina Spektor
Five: Cells—The Servant
Six: Paint it black—Vanessa Carlton
Seven: Confession (Oi A Time Traveler)—Home Video
Eight: Post Blue—Placebo
Nine: Want—Recoil
Ten: Sun Red Sky Blue—Kenna
Prevarications: Sometimes it took me much, much too long to pick a final song
Four: Tymps (The Sick in the Head Song)—Fiona Apple (more teh crazh song)
Eight: All That Remains—Sleep Station (more the war song)
Mix!
