| Yes, of course there was a very short soundtrack for Behold Little Padawan! this story that I listened to while writing (it tends to happen with me). Anywho, I'm offering up the soundtrack if you want to download it. There's a 13-track listing with commentary, followed by the download link. It's...eclectic to say the least. There's no album art, primarily because I have no graphics-making skills. ( Behold Little Padawan Soundtrack )The management would love it if you would comment when you download.- Tags:character: andrew, character: ensemble, character: faith, character: oc, character: xander, fanfiction: 2007, fanfiction: behold little padawan, fanfiction: buffy the vampire slayer, fanfiction: fic-a-thon, soundtrack: 2007, soundtrack: fandom

| I've finally finished uploading this! Other sections of this soundtrack can be found in: Track listing is under the cut and, where appropriate, a brief description of what makes the song fit in the soundtrack. Download for Tracks 60 through 70 is at the end of listing. Two tracks were too large to be uploaded to Box.net, so you will have to go to SaveFile to download (a list is provided at the end of the entry). The other tracks are in the Box.net applet. Please comment if you download...or even if you just feel like it. | |

Track 13, 'Skinhead on the MBTA (Live)' by the Dropkick Murphys, Track 23 'For Better or Worse' by Averi, and Track 26 'Soft Hand' by the Willard Grant Conspiracy has been uploaded to SaveFile for download, since Box.net won't let me upload these there due to size restriction.

| ![[profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png) lunatunes is hosting 'local music' week, so I thought I'd upload this mix from earlier this year to Box.net for the occasion. As it turns out, I never uploaded the entire thing. *cringe* Sorry about that. Even though I have since received additional tracks by various means and from RL friends for a future addition of this, they're not included here, mostly because it's a ton of hard work putting together a mix like this. This part contains the first 12 tracks of the mix, thanks to Box.net's uploading limitations on free accounts. As noted in this post, Box.net allows you to listen before you download. For instructions on how to do it, go here. Just a little refresher: This is a soundtrack of songs about New England or artists from New England (the "from" is interpreted very broadly here). I ended up with something on the order of 70 songs, many of them from people you've actually heard about. For a brief overview of New England's unique culture and heritage, here's a good overview from Wikipedia. Upon reading the page and confirming that it's all true — yeah, I guess I can see why the rest of the U.S. thinks we're a bunch of weirdos. I like to think that it isn't us who are weird so much as it's all of you. We are, if nothing else, an arrogant lot. (I'm joking about that last part. Sort of.) While it's true that when someone goes through the list of U.S. regions with a strong musical tradition, New England is not the first place anyone would pick. I'm very sure that the Mississippi Delta (Blues), Austin (Americana), Nashville (Music City U.S.A. for the Country set), Chicago (Jazz), Seattle (Grunge), Orlando (Boy Bands), L.A. (Metal and Rap), and New York City (Punk and Rap) would all be vying for a spot on the list. New England, by contrast, wouldn't even see the list, let alone be on it. There really isn't a typical "New England" sound. Hell, there isn't even a typical Boston sound. Fair enough. But what New England lacks in a cohesive, identifiable musical style, it makes up for it in variety.

| I just realized that I never finished posting this. Sorry about that. :-) As it turns out, the delay may have been a blessing, since I do have a slight addendum to this, thanks to finding a few tracks that I can tuck in at the end.

Download for Tracks 46 through 60 is at the end of listing. Tracks have to be downloaded on an individual basis because of SaveFile's weird hiccups.

| Yay! I finally finished programming the soundtrack so it shows up exactly the way I want it to, complete with art. Due to the size of the full post, however, LiveJournal keeps giving me "post is too large" warnings. I have to break this whole thing up into 5 posts. Apologies in advance. This is a soundtrack of songs about New England or artists from New England (the "from" is interpreted very broadly here). I ended up with something on the order of 69 (no snickering!) songs, many of them from people you've actually heard about. For a brief overview of New England's unique culture and heritage, here's a good overview from Wikipedia. Upon reading the page and confirming that it's all true — yeah, I guess I can see why the rest of the U.S. thinks we're a bunch of weirdos.

| Say it with me, people: "Liz is an idiot."
Liz is an idiot because she staring at a 67-track themed mix at 2 a.m., ensuring cover art is matched to the right individual tracks, and tagging the lot so the information I provide will show up on MP3 players, as opposed to whatever tags iTunes uses.
Did you know that if you indicate the tracks are linked together by checking the ticky-box in iTunes, it wipes out the art associated with a track? I did not know this. I know it now, but I didn't know it when all my associated art mysteriously disappeared.
I also never cease to be amazed at how easily iTunes "loses" MP3 files. Jesus, Apple. If Windows MediaPlayer can do an automatic scan of my music folders without me constantly reloading files, iTunes should be able to do the same thing.
*wham-wham-wham*
Let's not get into compiling the track listing with massive amounts of links. Because, oh no, I can't just throw a bunch of tracks together. I can't go half-way on anything. No, I have to have fun with it. I have to provide educational links because there are some artists in the mix where someone is gonna say, "I beg to differ."
Yes. I. Am. Having. Fun. Yes. I. Always. Grind. My. Teeth. Like. This. When. I. Am. Having. Fun.
All I can say is, 67 tracks? I'm bundling those puppies into groups of ten and zipping them together for download. I am not loading 67 individual tracks up to SaveFile. I'll be here for years if I do that.
Honestly, I was so involved with what I was doing that I only just looked up at the clock and saw the time.
I have to crawl into bed now.
