I'm not sure if other writers have come across this, but I find that my writing playlist changes based on what genre I am writing. I suppose there's not much logic that goes into why some songs fall more into one category for me and not another, it's just a feeling. :) And most, if not all, can cross over depending on the scene you're working on.
Since I am working on both my fantasy novel and my dystopian novel this week, I thought I'd share a few songs from my playlist in each genre.
If anyone has a recommendation for either of these genres or for an entirely different genre, please leave a comment!
FANTASY WRITING PLAYLIST:
Nathan Lanier: SAND and TORN
Hans Zimmer: Oh take your pick!
Lindsey Sterling: MOON TRANCE
Florence and The Machine: OVER THE LOVE and BREATH OF LIFE
The Piano Guys: Again, take your pick. Here's a good one for a sadder scene: ARWEN'S VIGIL
DYSTOPIAN WRITING PLAYLIST:
Florence and The Machine: SWIMMING and HEAVY IN YOUR ARMS
The National: ENGLAND
Lindsey Stirling: ELEMENTS
Lux Aeterna: REQUIEM FOR A DREAM
These are just a few ... anyone have any other recommendations?
