SURPRISE! Your Friday post is a little pause in the story as we enter a new day in the investigation… So, I’m sharing a whole lot of new tracks to The Spring playlist on Spotify because we haven’t had an update in about 30+ chapters, and maybe we need some more Easter eggs? Since it’s been so long I gave you a double-dose: 50 new songs and I have been editing this for a while!
WAIT! Do you need to catch up on The Spring? Maybe missed a few chapters? Please go here to the chapter index to jump back into the story!:
Please be sure to read the first two posts about the playlist below to see how I have been curating this music list. To recap, I think of The Spring very cinematically so I am always thinking of it with a soundtrack in my own way. I’m trying to focus on music that came out 2014 or before (unless it absolutely fits), and thinking of the kinds of music our three main characters would have listened to when they were teens because…teen angst is eternal. The songs also pick up some overall themes about the story and maybe leave a few hints?
New tracks begin at number 52, or just hit shuffle and see what happens. I hope you will enjoy, and as a boy I was wildly in love with in college used to say when signing off:
