NaNoWriMo06 Writing Soundtrack.

As I did last year, here is a rough mix of all the music I listened to while writing the novel. There’s relatively less variety, because I relied heavily on Smashing Pumpkins’ Adore and Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness to get me through the first half of the month. I tried to pick whatever songs stuck with me. There’s the songs I listened to when I was half-assing. Then there’s when I put on DragonForce towards these last couple pushes to pick it up a knock. And today I put Mellon Collie and The Infinite Sadness (the title track) on repeat, much like I did Daphne Descends last year. To think, I don’t really listen to Smashing Pumpkins, otherwise.

I used Spieluhr for those scant dorm scenes I struggled through. Wieder Frieden and Wut Will Nicht Sterben came into play when I wrote one scene in particular. Pilgrimage and No You Don’t were NIN songs that happened to get stuck on me. I like them. Soldiers of the Wasteland was playing when I felt like I finishing.

Burning fast, burning lives on the long distance roads, through the long mountains endless, so far away from hooooome.

I had …And Justice For All playing, but I always perk from what I’m doing whenever To Live Is To Die hits the five minute mark. Incredible music. Like a Stone reminded me of.. Well, I won’t get into that. Anyway, a rough mix:
