original request by @s4mmyc0wm1ttenz
mostly film tracks. big fan of John Williams, Hans Zimmer, John Powell, etc
unironically fw classical music. there’s some really great hits out there i promise you guys. his favourite composer would be Mozart but he also rlly likes Dvorak’s new world symphony specifically
also loves 80s and 90s stuff because his dad listened to it a lot :’)
loves Queen, Michael Buble, Elton John, David Bowie, etc etc
also likes Ed Sheeran, Madness and Lewis Capaldi (fuck yeah britpop)
likes jazz because i headcanon his mum has a lot of jazz cds that she plays when she picks Darius up from school
likes a few gospel type songs because he’s Christian
loves the Hamilton soundtrack
cannot make his own playlists. he has one playlist of songs he knows and pre made mixes saved
so bad at listening to new music. he takes song recs but often doesnt actually like them
Brand bought him fancy noise-cancelling headphones with bluetooth that he listens to music with
likes techno pop and electronic dance music and stuff (ew /j)
also a big fan of Billie Eilish
likes mainstream stuff but also indie bands
her music taste is very diverse honestly she’ll listen to everything
has one (1) playlist of the 1500 ish songs she knows, one playlist for small artists for her to listen to on loop to boost them, and her friends’ playlists saved in her library
willing to take music recs
liked Mean Girls when she was younger
Demi Lovato and Avril Lavigne fan
canonically likes kpop. fave band is blackpink
has a soft spot for musical theatre
if an artist is problematic she WILL stop listening to them. all their songs are going off her playlists within the hour
loops songs by small artists with the volume off while she works to give them confidence and a bit of revenue from streaming their music
uses the shittiest wired earbuds ever
has a taste for songs about revolution/flaws in society in general
hind’s hall/hind’s hall 2/fucked up by Macklemore were her most listened to song for two weeks after they were released
does not like love songs unless it’s specifically wlw
also likes Arabic pop/songs with Arab instruments
likes classical music but mostly the romantic era shit. Beethoven is her favourite followed by Tchaikovsky
hates being recommended music. she has a taste and no one can match it
not a fan of musicals but really likes the Greatest Showman specifically
has a playlist of really calming/soothing songs for whenever she has a nightmare or flashback. music is (part of) her therapy <3
only likes wireless earbuds or headphones; the wires bother her
we ALL know she adores Chapelle Roan. when Chapelle Roan first got big, Yaz bought Sammy tickets to see her in concert and they had the best time
when she was younger she loved the disney channel songs (and still does)
thinks disney music in general is gorgeous and whimsical and lovely and listens to it no matter how old she is
enjoys high school musical a LOT. could sing most of the songs from memory
loves Latin pop, especially anything she can dance to
goes through phases of enjoying a certain song/playlist for a week before moving onto the next one #audhd (trust me on this one)
only listens to sad music when she’s really sad
listened to a lot of sad music after she and Yaz broke up. she’s never really listened to sad music before so she literally starts sobbing her eyes out in a cupboard because she’s never felt this way about music before
tu falta de querer is HER breakup anthem (original hc by @campbenji)
has about 10 playlists. one of them is just songs that make her think of Yaz
does not like the feeling of headphones or earbuds #audhd so she has some nice speakers
knows over 2000 songs somehow
horrific amount of playlists. one playlist to suit every setting he can think of. i mean who even needs ninety four different playlists (not me guys don’t be ridiculous)
has a playlist called ‘homosexual yearning’
has one playlist dedicated to songs that make him think of his dad whenever he needs catharsis (okay i really am just exposing myself)
has one playlist for climbing that’s full of epic hype songs
likes musical theatre (in secret)
also loves the Hamilton soundtrack. he knows the rap part in guns and ships perfectly
very attracted to Jamie Muscato’s voice. and Jamie Muscato in general
listens mostly to female artists and three (3) men he likes (Rick Montgomery and two others idk)
went through a very intense Beyonce phase
likes Hannah Montana (he grew up watching it on loop to keep himself company since his father was always away)
still likes Miley Cyrus’s stuff but listening to her is always slightly bitter because of what Hannah Montana meant to him (being neglected and never spending time with his father)
likes kpop, he and Brooklynn went to a couple of kpop concerts together when they dated
Brooklynn still sends him song recs from time to time and they’re always stuff Kenji ends up liking. she knows her friends’ music taste freakishly well
takes recs from all his friends, so he has a really eclectic mashup of songs in a playlist titled ’camp fam song recs’
his music listening is very important to him and he’s willing to pay $11.99 for spotify premium every single month (he switches to the double plan when he and Ben start dating)
has wireless earbuds so he can wear them when doing climbing if he wants
only listens to bands no one has heard of. really really obscure stuff. fights with the three (3) other band’s fans on reddit
his playlists are severe whiplash between the heaviest of rock music and gorgeous classical music. Tchaikovsky’s swan lake followed by some loud crashy rock song about drugs
also likes sweater weather
other than his obscure bands he mostly listens to female artists, but specifically Celine Dion and Ariana Grande
has about five really disorganised playlists
also wears shitty headphones. one bud probably doesn’t work unless it’s at one (1) angle. Kenji buys him a better pair once they start dating :’)
