The Writer’s Soundtrack – Romance & Dread

The Writer’s Soundtrack! A forum where writers share the music they listen to while writing and discuss why. We highlight new music every Monday. Members of the network are welcome to submit their playlists and explain why they use them!

Why I Listen – I recently put this playlist for a cosmic horror screenplay I was looking for. I wanted dread as well as horror – a growing sense of unease and impending doom. But also a strand of 80s style romance, the same synths put towards beauty and love. For me this playlist sits at a juncture of those two moods.
