dolariA friend made a sountrack of his life on his Facebook the other day, and it got me thinking about putting together a soundtrack, but not of my life.
I often write my stories to music, or plot them out to music and instruments. A lot of times, in my head, I see individual instruments or melodies as characters and how the music interacts with tiself is how the characters interact. Kind of a reverse lietmotif.
In fact, if I was ever in a position to do my comics as a series, particularly AWFW I'd have a composer actually score the big climactic scene FIRST, so we can hear how he'd score the action and characters, then pick apart the lietmotifs and score the rest of the series from there, so when you see it in order, everyone has a thread of music, and at the end, wraps into the final scene.
I've collected all the music I used, retitled them as if it were a BGM CD for AWFW and zipped it up here: http://www.dolari.net/pub/AWFWSoundtrack.zip (73.4 MB). While it's not spoilerish REALLY, it does score AWFW to the end (Out of 21 tracks, the comic is currently up to 14).
Some of it will sound really familiar. Some won't. If you're curious about what the source music was for the soundtrack, you can just read on.
