Tips for writing specific scenes
LISTEN TO THE TYPE OF MUSIC FOR THE SCENE YOU’RE WRITING. IT HELPS!!
Ex: one of my books is medieval fantasy. So, I listen to Narnia music, golden brown, pandora x September ocean atmosphere, luminary, harpy hare, army dreamers, etc when I’m just having a basic scene with world building.
For sad/desperate/heartbreaking scenes, anything sad. I listen to songs that just make me cry to add depth. some I listen to depending on the TYPE of sad are a lot of Radiohead, lovely by Billie eilish, dandelions is good for more soft sad. Mitski is amazing for these, like first love/ late spring, losing dogs, AMAZING. Two birds on a wire, Goodbye by seungmin also. Dynasty.
Breaking rules, rebel, crazy character, bada$$ character scenes: typically rock, heavy metal, or even fast pop like mother mother songs I use like hayloft, even ‘dumb dumb’ works for me, a lot of mindless self indulge songs. Fnaf songs work too if your a weird kid like me. Die in a fire is a great one. You should see me in a crown is good, punk tactics
Crazy but like villian crazy: protection charm is a good one, cradles, insane, miss wanna die, play with fire, riot,
Happy romance, I use musicals.: like rewrite the stars, tightrope, you get it.
Traumatized breakouts ones I use a LOT of Melanie Martinez ones (don’t come at me about her, I don’t support her, just like the music). But things like tag your it are good depending on the trauma.
Eerie scenes you NEED ONES THAT SEND LIKE SHIVERS TO YOU: RUN RUN!, run rabbit, who is she, boots are ones I love
Scenes where a character is upset/angry/confused/frustrated/ desperate. Anything about romance or anything: one last kiss, too sweet, things like that but it depends.
Just absolutely bada$$, slay, fem or masc but mostly fem, sexy scenes like seduction, flirting, concerts: I use more hyped ones like Licky, sexy back, slumber party, boys beware, a lot of 6arelyhuman songs, taste (skz), 1-8-0-0, bite me, show me who you are, feel it, older, drunk dazed, darling can I be your favorite, escape, red lights,
For childish scenes, specifically almost painfully innocent it makes you cry type scenes I listen to like: you love me, villain and violent (idk what it’s called), glue,
These are very specific and random, just scenes and songs I like. You don’t have use any of them, it’s just kinda a tip and random ones I use! Theres many other songs for many other scenes.
