Animation Source Forums

Alright everyone. This is my first topic I've posted on this site so work with me here, please. This is more of a project than a regular topic. So look at it and tell me what you think. And please if you have any negative comments, which I hope is less likely to happen, please just private message me. No one want's to be in the middle of a big argument.

I had an Idea for a soundtract to my fan fic. I wanted to post it as a project on the main source of the site, but Steet suggested that I put it on the forums so here you go.

I just decided to post the links. Please take the time to listen to the songs. I couldn't find all of them though.

After you've read through this, tell me what you think. Please, don't forget about number eight.

I'm unfamiliar with these songs, and I don't know where to look them up. But I like the idea of making soundtracks for your fanfics. Maybe I should try it sometime. I'll look these up when I can so I can give you an informed opinion, but right now I gotta run.

This is a great idea!!
I've often thought of songs that go with my fics, but I never thought to write them down. Way to go!

-LWf

I sort of did think of that once, but I never really thought of doing background music for the whole thing. All I did was weave one song into one of my stories as a literary device. I think you can safely say that this idea is truly original for this site. Too bad you can't make a movie out of your story.

Yeah this was a cool idea Draco and I had as a different kind of prize for our Hinto contest. You know, cuz EVERYONE draws something for someone XD We made a soundtrack of our Kiona/Achak fanfic, The Brown Hill Spirits. We have the soundtrack complied together, we just need a soundtrack cover XD Then we can send it to the winner. The only bad thing about this is alot of people are gonna be using the same songs -_-

But some songs we had were

Welcome to the Black Parade by My Chemical Romance : to kind of describe Achak's feelings towards his father's death : http://youtube.com/watch?v=kDWgsQhbaqU

She Bangs by Ricky Martin : to describe Kiona (haha) : http://youtube.com/watch?v=TNI1zxedSM0

Stray by Yoko Kanno : to describe Achak : http://youtube.com/watch?v=ZqS2mC4WGi4

And a buttload of other ones.

It'd be a good idea to actually describe the parts of the fic where you want the tracks to go in some detail first XD

But yeah, sounds cool and whatnot. We've all wanted a soundtrack for a fanfic at one stage so go ahead and do it I say

I did describe the parts that I want them to be in. They're in the parathases at the end of the author's name. You would probably get a better idea of it if you read my fan fic.

Did any one look at the lyrics I tried make the lyrics of each song match the mood of the certain part in the story. I have a few other song Ideas for fan fics, but I'm not sure if I want to replace the ones I have now for the ones I thought of. I know some of them I want to be on other stories. ( Sorry, I should have added quotes to the song names )

Songs for Balto Family Stories: The Change of Heart
"Not Alone" By: All That Remains ( To maybe replace track 2)
"Dance with The Devil" By: Breaking Benjamin ( To maybe replace track 8 )

Songs for other fan fics
"Intro" By: Bullet For My Valentine
"Had Enough" or "You Fight Me" by: Breaking Benjamin ( Breaking Benjamin Rocks XD Don't hate lol)
"A Shame" By: Pillar
"This is Absolution" and "Arms of Sorrow" or "Desperate Times" By: Killswitch Engage

I may have more Ideas. Look up the lyrics for these songs and state your opinion. If you want to know what they sound like, just look for the video of the song on youtube, or if the song doesn't have a video, look for a small sample of the song on amazon.com or another website.

That's pretty cool. Thanks for leaving a comment.

I just posted the links for most of the songs. Tell me what you think.

I suppose I'll post one for meh next fanfic (Mystery of the Wolf, the WQ rewrite) soonish XD
