Quantum (quantumkatana) We all love music. We all love movies. We all love books.

Why not combine them all into a book trailer for your fav book? Or for you authors, one for your book?

What song would you commission for that book? Would it be a rock song? Classical? What tone or style would fit the style or main character of your fav book?

I'll start. For my horror story, I'd use one similar to this song:

Nik Krasno | 19865 comments Cool song, Alex.
Not that I like it too much, but I guess chanson should suit the most to accompany my stuff

Codex Regius (codex_regius) | 26 comments Have a look at Jamendo. Many artists there provide their work on a CC license there and permit using them in videos.

Chanson? en français?

As the origin of the style - yes, French, but more its Russian adaptation for bards' gangsta songs...

Zee Monodee (zee_monodee) | 0 comments I have a 'soundtrack' for each of my stories! Usually one for the plot, one for the heroine, one for the hero :)

Kevin Kuhn (kevinkuhn) | 45 comments My upcoming novel shares a title with "Do You Realize??" by the Flaming Lips, which is a fantastic song and a decent fit with the story/theme.

is your new novel a sequel to Enoch and the Stars Above?

Justin (justinbienvenue) I'm probably with everyone else here when I say I wish I could use a real song to go with my book trailers. But I found a way around it by creating soundtracks for all my books.
