This soundtrack is a little different. So, a couple things: I'm a huge fucking fangirl for Mike Doughty. I think he's completely awesome, and I've thought that since his Soul Coughing days. Although mainly that's because of his amazing voice, since his solo stuff is clearly superior - everything gets to me about him, and that usually doesn't happen with me and music. I love music, but I'm not, like, emotional about it. However, I am a hormonal teenage girl for Mike Doughty. When I put together a mix for a fic, I usually pile 20 to 25 songs into a playlist and then pare it down from there, but when I started this mix 3/4ths of the entire folder ended up being Mike Doughty songs, because everything about Jon being a unicorn makes me think of Mike Doughty, and now I can't listen to one of his songs without thinking about Jon being a unicorn. I've given you a few of these songs before, but bear with me here. This is probably going to be hit or miss for you guys; I hope you enjoy it anyway. He's alt-folk-rock. He's so awesome. Pick up his albums if you like him, they're all really good. Please comment if you download, and let me know what you think.

Jon can lie, but he doesn’t like to. It makes him sick to his stomach. It makes him feel too human sometimes, and Bill gets drunk and says, sprawled out on the lounge floor, arm careful inches from Jon’s, “You are human. You are, you are, look at your fucking face in the mirror, Jonny,” and Jon knows he’s trying to help, but Jon—Jon feels like he’s going to throw up all his insides.
Jon looks in the mirror and can see exactly who he is.

We've got an M83 (M83 is truly awesome folks), a Matches, a Midtown, a Tiger Tunes. I'm sort of all over the place with this, but I wanted it to have a teenage vibe, and then it kind of morphed into Frank's Halloween birthday bash dance party (Hadouken! will totally make you DANCE - you can even do the Molly Ringwald), and then I thought, what the hell, and threw in an Interpol song, so. It's a nice little fun mix! Comment if you download please - enjoy :)

“Spencer Smith!” Brendon comes bounding out of nowhere and tackles Spencer before he can even struggle upright. Brendon’s a senior, too, and he plays the trombone, and he’s decided to adopt Spencer – he’d said it just like that, too: “Spencer Smith, I’m adopting you,” and he’d lounged all over his lap during lunch break, like, two days into camp - and he’s possibly got more energy than Frank. Or maybe not more, exactly, just a different kind of energy. Brendon sings Disney songs and pretends to strip for the Butcher and wears tiny purple hoodies and jeans that barely cover his ass. Frank kicks Gerard in the balls and rides around on Bob’s back and calls Spencer a motherfucker at least five times a day.

I made a mix for
bandombigbang! Here it is! The whole feel of
icyanahita's story is very, um, weighty? Dark? Like you'd think a superhero AU would be all fun and games, but this was more about the things they couldn't do than what they could. If this was a movie, At Death, A Proclamation would be, like, as the credits are rolling maybe (god, I love the drums). And, okay, I kind of bookended it like that, because Ash is definitely a winding down sort of song, a fade to black. The whole soundtrack is a lot more metal-ish than usual. House of the Rising Sun has always been one of my favorite songs - I love the original, but I thought the Muse version was a little more fitting. I have a huge weakness for Disturbed - The Sickness is on my list of top 5 albums of all time, IDEK. I've always thought Bodies was slightly masterful. Voodoo is not nine minutes long (Audacity is useful for more than just podfic recording!) Disco Blackout - obviously a shout out to the Vegas side of events. Anyway, comment if you download! Enjoy :)

Alex gives it a few days. He throws himself into his work and gives the best damn post mission physicals he can give, and he totally doesn’t think about Johnson at all. He maybe thinks about Cash a little, but that’s mainly because Cash is his best friend, and Cash is always in his face.
“It’s like, okay,” Alex says to Carson’s mice, slumped down on a stool, chin cupped into his hand. The mice are taking turns pushing each other off the little rodent wheel. “You know how you find your soul mate, only he’s straight and also an asshole?”
Not only did Simpson happen to miss the memo that declares her and Alex immortal enemies ala Highlander: The Series - Alex is pretty sure that means he can decapitate her at some point in the near future, never mind the fact that neither of them are actually immortal - she seems to think their short-lived adventure in bonding under an infirmary cot has made them buddies.

"Fuck," Brendon hisses, and he picks up his pace, races across the open field, slicing through the knee-high grass. He fumbles over a slope once he hits the tree line, slides to a stop with harsh breaths, and, thank god, oh thank god, there's Jon, he'd recognize that shape anywhere. "Jon, Jon, oh my god, Jon, I lost Spencer."

New soundtrack! Today you get a DOUBLE album, because I couldn't post music for The Magic Friend Band without giving you a sampling from Gerard's Dance Cave of Deep Despair!
Here we've got some fun fun sing-along songs, but you will not find a kids song among them. I was so tempted, let me tell you, but it was more fun to give you these. All these folks are super-awesome. I normally try not to repeat artists, but I couldn't help myself here, so you've got another Pete and the Pirates, another Format, another Murder Mystery, and another Jukebox The Ghost. But! Plenty of new stuff to go around. Turn up your iPod and SING.
And on the flip side, we have the dance mix you can hear through Gerard's office door when he'sobsessing over Frank being totally creative!

Brendon hadn’t actually thought of himself as a busker at the time – even though that’s what his Wiki page claims - but he’d liked singing songs about colors and State capitals and he’d liked doing it outside on his tiny apartment balcony or on the equally tiny front stoop of the building, strumming his guitar or uke or banjo, and he’d never turned down an occasional coin or dollar. And then this short, roly-poly guy with the best lower lip ever just sort of stood there for an hour one day, watching him on the balcony and shouting up prompts and requests and then suggestions, like, “How about something minor key, but about mules eating daisies?” and, “Do you know anything about the accordion?” and Brendon had fallen helplessly in love.

Everyone knows to leave Gerard alone when he’s, “thinking up amazing ideas, guys, Simian Mobile Disco really jumpstarts my creativity,” which Brendon thinks is code for, “I’m leaving fifty million messages on my brother’s voicemail about how my life is over, do not disturb.”

So 60s & 70s Week got a rocky start with my site going down, so this might bleed into next week. I'm sure you folks won't mind :)
A little advice: never go to a Steve Miller Band concert unless you’re really fucking high. The Steve Miller Band specialty is really trippy, extremely long intros to their songs, guitar solos that go on for a half hour, etc. Oh my god, it’s so boring if you aren’t high out of your mind, trust me.
However! Their recordings? Really awesome. Pirate Booty and I have been known to blast Fly Like An Eagle from a hotel balcony. I’m not exactly proud of that, but it’s true. We wore out our tapes playing Steve Miller Band over and over in our bedrooms, cars, etc, and I think maybe my brother liked a few of their songs, but no one I’ve come across has been as dedicated to Steve Miller as PB and I, without the benefit of pot. Lots and lots of pot.
They’re still around today. I believe they're still touring. They were putting out albums all through the eighties and I even own a tape of their last studio album Wide River (1993), though I never bothered to upgrade, because there’s nothing like their old 70s hits.
Personal favorites: um, probably Jet Airliner, although I’m awfully fond of Serenade and Rock ‘N Me, and hell, you know what, I love all these, know all the words by heart and they’re so fun to sing along to, so. Enjoy.

Welcome to the 60s & 70s week! I'll just be highlighting a few of my favorite bands, some of which are still producing music. Um, this was going to be just 70s, but then I really, really wanted to do The Guess Who, and they span both decades, so. (And later in the week, one of my other highlighted bands will nudge into the 80s. We're playing fast and loose, but I totally can, because no one can stop me!)
So when my brother and me were in high school, the best thing ever was borrowing my dad's car. We had our own cars, but dad's car had a CD changer - a total novelty back then - and there were three CDs that dad ALWAYS had in there. Time in my dad's car for both us was always spent blasting either The Blues Brothers soundtrack, The Beatles' Revolver, or The Best of The Guess Who.
I'm not going to get into the band specifics, but The Guess Who is/was a Canadian rock group and they've had a butt-load of former members, and as far as I know they're still making music under yet another incarnation. I've even seen them in concert with my dad, back in, like, '96 or something.
In college, I got my roommate Brownstone hooked. We'd turn up Laughing in the car and I'd carry the verses and she'd rock the backing vocals and whoever was driving would drum the steering wheel at that part right before "time goes slowly" because we were/are giant dorks. No Sugar Tonight is possibly my favorite song ever. Lenny Kravitz completely ruined American Woman, by the way, god. The original is so much better. The very, very beginning, "American woman gonna mess your mind..." before the riff starts, dudes. Dudes.
I can pretty much sing all these songs by heart, and what you need to do is burn them onto a CD or hook your iPod up in your car and just rock out on your way to work, school, where ever. Make sure it's loud.
Note:I'm nearing the very end of my data transfer limit for the month of April (first ever time it's happened! kind of exciting, even though my site might go down) so if anyone has problems downloading, PLEASE let me know! everything should be good to go now!

“You’re not cursed.” Ryan nudges her arm. “Brownie?”
She looks up. “Depends,” she says. “Are you wearing a bandana around your head?” Ryan’s taken metrosexual to a whole new level. He’s into gay cowboy chic or something, and Keltie apparently loves it. It’s like he was going for a hippie vibe, but got distracted by neckerchiefs. Greta is continuously baffled by Ryan as a person.

Okay, so much like the apartment AU, Sublimation is all over the place, theme wise. So here are some teamie songs! And some love songs! They're all groovy, dudes - common thread. A few notes: Memphis singer? Yes, that's totally the guy from Stars. Also, check out the Hitten video, because those Swedish gals are a-dorable, oh man. And see, see, you always wanted a song about an orgy, right? Right. Enjoy this mishmash. Please comment if you download, let me know what you think :)

William is not exactly sure what’s going on, but he’s feeling very fourteen. Very awkward with his limbs, very sore, and he does not like it.
“I do not like this, Sisky,” he says, and Siska’s practically an amoeba, he’s so baby-faced, and if William’s bones didn’t actually hurt – he’d almost entirely forgotten that tremendous growth spurt he’d suffered through during the summer of 1995 – he’d probably appreciate that more. “Also,” William goes on, “your hair is frightening.”

AKA: The Beatles Music Post of Doom, for no other reason than the fact that Panic amuses me, and I usually listen to The Beatles on Sundays, because it’s an old, inexplicable habit of mine.

So, here we've got Tullycraft - awesome. The Ark, my new favorite band (glam rock, people; from Sweden.) Punchy, twinkly songs in the middle, then we take it down a notch with Beat Radio and the absolutely gorgeous Get It Right and Already Been Here. And then we head on out with a song that reminds me of zombies. Whatever, it’s catchy. Also: Gerard. Comment if you download, and let me know what you think.

“How am I supposed to know who likes me for me?” Ryan asks, and Pete’s brows shoot up.
“Well. Normally, people who like other people will engage in what I like to call friendly conversation. There may be smiling involved, or, like, shoulder pats—”
“Pete. Pete, I’m.” Ryan shakes his head. “The spell, Pete, okay?”

So, okay, this was like a stroll through my college years! Let me tell you about this mix! Volcano is first, because I picture this as, like, the credits roll on this fic okay? And it's stop action Brendon! He's jumping in the air! And then stop action William, he's totally mid-wink, right, but he comes off as DRUNK! And then stop action Gabe, he's giving you a smarmy thumbs up! And then stop action Joe! He's doing finger guns!!! Stop on Adam Brody looking freaked out!! All the while it's like rainbows EVERYWHERE!
Van Halen is kind of Brendon's I'm pouting at everyone song, and then comes the Regurgitator song, which is Brendon hopping from TAI's bus to his bus to GABE'S DISCO BUS. Blah blah blah KATE EQUALS SPENCER Y/Y?! AND THEN MORE SONGS OF BRENDON'S HUGE GAY CRUSH. We wrap up with classic Cake as the ending credits come up - they're rolling down the highway! Brendon is totally in Spencer's lap AT ALL TIMES. So, yeah, whatever. Comment if you download! Enjoy!

“Smith has issued a challenge,” Gabe says finally, and Brendon scrunches his face up, because he’d kind of been expecting something like, “I’m now going to drug you and make you perform an interpretive dance with the Butcher,” which has, sadly, happened once or twice or five times. It’s not like Brendon’s keeping track.

This soundtrack is actually the second incarnation. I had this finished along with Solvation, and it was awesome and mellow and sad and then I realized that Frank was really frustrated in Enthalpy, and I wanted to try to express that. So I scrapped the entire first soundtrack and started over. Please comment if you download, let me know what you think. Enjoy :)
Enthalpy |

Burying his head in his hands, he curled his fingers into his scalp, nails biting. There was a loud crash upstairs, and Pete yelled, “Jesus Christ, ow,” and Frank was ninety-five percent sure he was going to die there. Sure he would fade away like he never existed, and the thought of leaving Gerard like that, of just fucking disappearing, made his lungs burn, his chest tight.

“I wish I could remember you, before,” Brendon goes on, and Spencer automatically tightens his hold, drags Brendon even closer, his legs falling open on either side of Spencer’s hips.
Spencer wishes that, yeah, but he’s not going to let that change the here and now. “You were and are the most annoying guy alive,” Spencer says. He feels Brendon smile against his skin.
“Yeah?”
“Yes.”

He said, "I'm going to cuddle with you now," in a low hush before slipping under the covers, fair warning, and Spencer rolled over onto his back and murmured, "Bren?"
"Shhhh," Brendon said. "Sleepy time." He spread a hand on Spencer's stomach and closed his eyes against Spencer's cheek, forehead touching his temple.
