Ilya and Danya listen to jazz on the radio a lot and will dance together a lot. We only got one scene of it in Mercy but it's touched on a little more in Magus
Itβs integral to my book. My MC is a musician/singer/songwriter, many of the characters play music quite a bit and she even writes a song that is included in the book. Itβs about an activist movement, so they use music a lot during the protests as well.
Early in the series the MC, Finley, mentions an old dusty room in their parents apartment that had a record player in it. Occasionally throughout the series, they fondly reminisce about the room as the dystopian nature of the world they're in consumes them.
One of my two POV characters is a violinist and his music is central to the story.
Art, music, and other forms of creativity are highly valued in this setting; creative achievement garners immense respect in their society.
My MC, Fiona, loooooooooved classical music but especially Baroque and Neoclassicism. Once they get their heads out of their asses, this is something Fiona and Malachi bond over (among other things).
Music is always a big part of my process but ESPECIALLY for Edge Jump since program music is huge! Roderick loves jazz and romantic music, Gershwin specifically gets a shout out. He also grew up listening to hair bands and now loves psychedelic rock. Tame Impala not only gets a shout out...
So Sacaask folk enjoy singing and dancing and generally making music as a matter of course, and the crew aren't outliers in that regard - in terms of within the story, though, it's mostly come up in the context of Archer singing shanties with Sabbat to distract him/keep him present while he's sick.
Daumantas vocally stims to help cast spells if he's not enchanting, which he does with knots, thread or sewing. The Ballad of the Dueling Princess is also a plot important song, as it tells of Cyril's exploits before his transition and self exile.
about time, it was so ass yesterday ghdfjs
It's a casual thing. If they hear music, they probably put it on

For Micah in Sweet & Wild, music is actually tied to his magic! His mother was a witch and she used to sing songs to cast her spells. Micah doesn't sing, but he hums all the songs his mother used to sing. As the melody fills the air, so does his magic.
In Shooting Stars, Wes and Evan have bonded over their shared taste in music before they meet in person and conversations are started over band hoodies.
In Illusory, music is what sways the unmovable. Bards are good at that and Cante's a lovely story teller, capturing Chione's attention and heart.
What relationship do your characters have to music in your book? Is it integral to the setting, or only a rare treat? #WritingPrompt
