The Machiavellian Adventures of Princess Eleanor

[naut]

dele's major problem right now is that I can't find the right music. Having the right background music to ignore is strangely important to my writing process. Without that I don't have the final spark for her in these scenes. Oh, I've got plenty suitable for the younger Adele, but nothing good for the current Adele because it needs to be the right kind of loud and fast, somewhat reckless and adrenaline filled. I don't really like that kind of music so I've got nothing. The closest I have is this J-Pop song from a game soundtrack, Everlasting love. It's not quite right somehow; I think it needs to get rid of the random bits of English, or be entirely in English. Too jarring when it swaps. Aside from that I've managed to find the you and me song from the 50 second mark onwards, discounting the brief quieter period around 1:30. Or maybe the awful J-pop song used for Final Fantasy X-2's intro from 2:41 to near the 3:20 mark in that video. Heh, back in the day when I first loaded FF X-2 up and found that intro I nearly died of embarrassment! I only have it because the rest of the game's soundtrack was better.

The right music? Must be:

- Loud
- Fast
- Reckless
- Adrenaline filled

Hmm. Motorhead?

Suggestions off the top of my head.... I have THOUSANDS of songs, I'm sure I could find something appropriate.

Foals - Cassius

Foals - Two Steps, Twice

Bang! Bang! Eche! - 4 To The Floor

The Press - Pattern Mill

Motorhead - Ace of Spades

Crystal Castles - Doe Deer

The Dead Weather - Treat Me Like Your Mother

Tubelord - Propeller
