I need mood music when I write at least 80% of the time. I've shared the playlist I listen to (above) when I'm writing my Mythic Sons tales. None of the music belongs to me. I just pick songs that appeal to the setting, the character, or the tone of what I’m working on. Anything that helps create the feeling of a band that is making a lot of creative noise :)
This playlist is constantly growing, for better or for worse. I keep adding songs as they inspire me for different scenes. I plan to someday have a playlist for each character so I can then zero in on their particular vibe while writing their character beats.
Sometimes a single song becomes tied to a specific moment in the story. For example, "u better run" by Nefast Project is forever linked in my mind to the final chapter set in Apple Down—a seemingly ordinary town where the Sons slowly discover they've been performing for an entire village of very hungry vampires. Every time that song comes on, I'm right back in those scenes.
Someday I’ll get all these sub-playlists together too, just for fun.
Happy Reading *** Happy Writing
