second soundtrack

The book soundtrack for Thistleswitch's sequel is coming along swimmingly. Unlike the music that inspired the first one, which was a lot of Vitamin String Quartet and kind of quirky, bouncy fiddle stuff, the music that makes me think of this second one is a lot more...not "dark", really, but certainly less happy. More dramatic. I don't know. That's not to say that the story itself is, but there you go.

Standing the Storm by William Joseph is definitely the theme for the overall thing. I've been listening to it on repeat for the past few days. The part that begins at 1:28 is Jovie and Terrence's relationship in music form. Beyond that, Requiem for a Tower by eScala is another overall theme song (a lot of eScala's songs are, actually), and For the Lambs by Michele McLaughlin is sort of Jovie's theme (and, to be honest, a lot of her songs make the playlist as well). The other songs are:

Adagio for Strings - eScala
The Swell Season – Glen Hansard and Marketa Irglova
Palladio – eScala
Haunted Dancehall – The Sabres of Paradise
The Defeat - Wavorly
Christofori’s Dream – Best of David Lanz
Big Love Adagio – Bond
Hoppipolla – Vitamin String Quartet
The Reel – Secret Garden
Rain – Silvard
The Music Box Angel – Michele McLaughlin
The Eternal City – Michele McLaughlin

Whoosh.
