also listened to Angel with a Shotgun and its just way too over processed for my taste? idk if that makes sense

Okay interesting~

Yea i got u, like it would be better if it were more acoustic?

In honor of Deadpool, I would like to recommend Bangarang by Skrillex. Which is way catchier than I expected and make me question why I didn't try dubstep sooner.

yeah I guess, but not really more acoustic per se, just less busy and not sounding more like a buzz or hum? idk does that make sense? like clear not fuzzy

someone want to suggest songs for my new project?

the current playlist for the book is;
- Anti-Summersong, The Decemberists
- Bleeding Out, Imagine Dragons
- Galway Girl, Ed Sheeran
- Reaper, Sia
- Sail, AWOLNATION
- Yesterday, Imagine Dragons
- 3 Foot Tall, Classified

despite the teen-fiction-esque songs, the book is scifi and leans toward the dark side of things. but i don't have any songs that rly pump me up for it? Like usually i'll have a bunch of songs that remind me of a particular scene or character and help get the creative juices flowing, along with some songs that just in general fit the story/tone. but this time i can't think of any? help?

hmm would the soundtrack of Subnautica or Beyond: Two Souls fit the mood?

My mom hates this song almost as much as she hates Birdhouse in your Soul, so it's probably good for KP;

Run Boy Run, by Woodkid

Also I found this last night and lowkey am addicted to it:

Play With Fire, by Sam Tinnesz
