This Isn't Over: A GenKill AU Fanmix For A Stupendous Sort Of Girl

[deedlit50]

As you might already know, today is my girl l_s_d_me 's birthday! In honor of this momentous occasion, below_the_city and I put together a gigantor fanmix for her EPIC GenKill/Dark Tower AU fic, Count To Three. I was lucky enough to help beta this labor of love and if you haven't already read it than trust me, "good" doesn't even begin to describe it. In short: do

I legitimately just almost started sobbing.

I can't even function in the face of all of this.

IT'S PERFECT *_____*

:'D

the pictures!! all of the pictures are absolutely killing me right now! how.... why..... I'M GOING TO DIE.

Seriously. this is the best thing anyone has ever given me. Now excuse me while I stare at this in amazement.

SUCCESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

All fixed! I corrected the CD and re-uploaded it so you should be in business lady!

Hey, thanks! This was my first attempt at a fanmix actually so it's awesome hearing that people liked it. :)

I'm working on a couple more right now for the Merlin/SPN/BSG/ and Teen Wolf series in general but I wasn't sure if anyone would be interested if I uploaded them.

I'm not sure which one to focus on finishing first but if you have any kind of preference, I'd love to hear it.

Do me a favor though and double check that Over My Head by The Fray plays alright. We had an issue with it already but I'm pretty sure I fixed the problem and updated the download link about 20 minutes before your comment. If you downloaded the album before that then you might want to download the updated version.

Over My Head plays without a hitch

Fantastic! Good to know the problem's been fixed. :)

I'm always interested in mixes since I usually have music on my mind when reading

I do that too-- without a doubt music makes reading a more enjoyable experience.

Thanks again for the feedback!

Okay. Now that i am more composed about the magnitude of this:

This is seriously more perfect of a playlist for the story than i could have made and i lived with it every day for 8 months. I have no idea how you managed to make this. It perfectly encompasses every single thing about the story. While listening to it at work today I felt like I was listening to the soundtrack of a movie i've seen a hundred times because it was like i could SEE the scenes in my head. It all FITS so gloriously. I mean jfc i almost teared up when Before the Lobotomy was playing. i just can't handle the context of any of it - so brilliant.

and the pictures! the trees! the desert! the motorcycle! the hands! the shadowy person! the house! the fucking doorway!!!!! dsjlkdsajlkkfd it's like you took what was in my head and put pics down.

i haven't been there, but if you haven't you should post this at the gk comm bc people love fanmixes and this one is f'ing perfect.

Oh LAUREN, I am so, so happy that you love it this much!!! Seriously bb, your reaction has been exactly what I was hoping for.

*Sits back and lets that sense of smug satisfaction ROLL.*

I had a fabulous time making this up for you and it was like it COULD NOT BE TAMED! It just kept getting longer and longer and then I kept coming up with ideas on how to edit or scrub some of the songs and how cool it would be to add pictures and then I nagged Michael into being my executive editor because after a while it all started to blur. AND it gave me an excuse to learn some new programs, brush up on the secret and inner workings of itunes and smack around paint like a bitch (omg, do I need to learn photoshop). So yeah, it was pretty freaking awesome. :D I'm kind of ridiculously proud of it

[l_s_d_me]

*hugs you forever and ever* you just have no idea. it makes me beyond happy. it's just really really beautiful. you SHOULD be smug - it's just insane.

LOL ms paint is my bitch too. photoshop smotoshop - paint is where it's at *freeze frame high five*

YOU SHOULD BE SO PROUD OF THIS!

oh really?? I totally think people will like it - there are always fanmixes being posted for things. i think ppl download them, lol. and, please, i get nervous every . single . time . i post something. every time. just remember to make the actual post for friends only if you do bc all stuff like that has to be locked to the comm.

I'm missing subject lines!

[deedlit50]

Hmm.... I think I did it right. I guess one of the mods will tell me if 'open to community' doesn't mean it's friends only.

Dude, and for some reason I can't change my icon pic with the new commenting system. I know it's supposed to drop down but nothing happens when I click on it. >:/

I am seriously late to Lauren's party due to real life obligations and reading Stephen King's books, so I haven't yet read her fic. However, this fanmix makes me that much more excited. What a wonderful gift you made for her!

[deedlit50]

Thank you so much! And don't worry about being late to the party-- that just means we get to extend the festivities.

OH DAMN... perfect fanmix! I love scores and I love new wavey/electronica tinged rock. A+++++!

[deedlit50]

Sweet! Thanks for the props man.
