I don't know, folks, this kind of turned out to mostly be a Sisky-as-a-girl mix. Weird. I'm kind of on an Explorers Club kick - Freedom Wind is an awesome, beachy album - Voxtrot is always an excellent choice, as is Tilly & the Wall. Um, nothing heavy here. It's kind of fun to sing along to? Please comment if you download - enjoy!

“Siska,” Greta says, snapping him back into the present, into the stiff cloth of his jacket, the rocking of the carriage beneath his sturdy-booted feet. She reaches forward and pushes a stray curl behind his ear and he blinks back moisture at the corners of his eyes.
He doesn’t want to be a boy.
“I’ll love you no matter what, Siska,” Greta says.
Siska drops his gaze to his lap, avoiding the sheen of sadness in her eyes. He doesn’t want to be a boy, but he’s well aware now that he has to be one. “Adam.” He clears his throat, but he still can’t bring himself to look up. “Call me Adam.”

New soundtrack! Finally! Okay, so, not much to say about this one except the first song? I've had on repeat in my car, because it's seriously hardcore awesome and totally fun. Um, other than that, I had to fit in a Slow Club, of course, and I recently downloaded everything I could from The Second Band, because I'm totally in love with them, and you've got a Films and a Lovedrug, both crazy awesome bands, and some random shit and just - I went for some high powered songs (mixed with some hand-clapping and harmonies because it's me), because Joe and Bob are both dudes right? Anyway, please comment if you download - enjoy!

Joe splutters as the water hits his face. “Motherfucker,” he says with a surprised laugh. He lunges for the hose again, but Bob’s quicker than he looks, and Joe’s completely drenched before he gives up, sagging against the garage door. “Yield, I fucking yield, dude,” he says, panting.
“Good,” Bob says, and then—
Then, somehow, Bob’s mouth ends up on top of Joe’s. Joe is, like, stunned, fucking flabbergasted, even, and also—also, he seems to be kissing Bob back. And gripping Bob’s shirt at his collarbones and hitching a leg up against Bob’s side and, like, licking into Bob’s mouth and really. Really.

This took much research, because I'm dedicated to the craft of fine soundtrack making. It's really kind of exciting.

Spencer staggers sideways. “Motherfucker,” he shouts, and Brendon spares a wide-eyed holy crap, I did that moment before making a wild break for it.
He tries to dive past Spencer, but Spencer recovers quickly and catches him around his middle, still off-balance enough that they both crash into Sweet Beulah’s front bumper.
“Holy fuck,” Spencer says harshly. “You hit me with a fucking shovel.”

So I'm still trying to piece together a soundtrack for All In The Way That You Trip, but in the meantime! Have some tunes that remind me of Automatic Zombie Fall and Sam and Mary Beth and Anthony and Pear and Kit and Lissa and Eddie and Digger, etc :) We've got some fun songs here, a nice Silversun Pickups one and I seriously adore David & the Citizens, and then there's those ever-adorable gals of Those Dancing Days; I can't resist them! The Frug always reminds me of that scene in Troop Beverly Hills where they all do The Freddy. ALSO, Zombie Jamboree warning: the chorus? Will probably get in your head and never leave. I was singing it so much that J actually told me to shut the fuck up, even though he tacked a please on there. I was even bugging myself so I can't blame him. It's the whole "back to back, belly to belly, I don't give a damn, 'cause I'm done dead already" oh god, I can't even stop in written form, it's a disease. Listen at your own risk. (I kind of like to imagine AZF covering it, though). Comment if you download! Enjoy!

Pear snuggles up to Sam in the back of the van and says, “I’m in love.”
Sam gives her the hairy eye. “Are you kidding me? You kicked him in the balls.”
“True love,” Pear says, and sighs happily.
“Are you still icing your boob?”
Pear gives her a vicious poke in the side, sharp nail digging through the thin material of her worn t-shirt. “Shut the fuck up and be happy for me.”
Sam shifts, wraps an arm around Pear’s shoulders, dragging her even closer, and says, “Okay.”

This might possibly be one of my favorite mixes yet.

“I’m saying we trash these songs—”
“All of them?” There’s a moment where Brendon thinks maybe Ryan’s going to cry, and then his face falls blank. “What the fuck.”
“We set them aside,” Brendon amends, then says slowly, “Pete wants us to put out a Beach Dog album. I want to put out a Beach Dog album.” He fucking loves Beach Dog. He loves the concept, the country-wide festivals, even though they’re few and far between and a bitch to schedule. But he’s kind of having the time of his life right now, with just the four of them. “And then I want to do whatever the hell it is we’re doing together.”

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.

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.

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.”

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.”

Aaaand I haven't got a lot to say about this mix, except it was damn hard to do. I'd originally wanted to post this before Tear Down The Slaughter-house, but oh well. These are just some fun rocking songs. Please comment if you download! Enjoy :)

“The universe hates me. Do we know any voodoo shamans? Because I’m pretty sure I’m cursed.”
“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.

I am possibly even more weird about this fic than I am of Certain Coasts Set Apart - it's just got an entirely different vibe to it. So! We've got some haunting songs. Some songs of sadness and love. I seem to use Stars a lot, huh? Oh, well. I'm sort of extremely fond of the Johnny Boy song, and also the eerie Loch Lomond one. So, enjoy?

The list of things Brendon and Spencer don’t or won’t or can’t talk about is pretty long. Or maybe not long, exactly, but dense, because they won’t talk about Ryan, and they aren’t talking about Jon or Haley, and that right there is their past and present.
do u believe in ghosts, Brendon texts Jon.
is spence lettin u watch ghost hunters?

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.”

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 :)

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.
