movie music:
Dark Ambient music or just
instrumental music.
“All round him the long
scar smashed into the jungle was a bath of heat. He was
clambering heavily among the creepers and broken trunks
when a bird, a vision of red and yellow, flashed upwards
with a witch-like cry; and this cry was
echoed by another.”(Pg 1 Chaper 1)

Retire (final) :

I chose this instrumental song
because it presents mystery
during the first chapter and page
of the novel, prepares build-up
and makes the story to get more
involved.
“There was no light left save that of the stars.”...”The figure fell and
crumpled among the blue flowers of
the mountain-side, but now there was a gentle breeze at this height
too
and the parachute flopped and banged and pulled. So the figure,
with
feet that dragged behind it, slid up the mountain.”(Pg 95- 97 Chapter
6)

 Ache music cover:

I chose the song ache because it is a song

that matches the dark theme, the suspense
and the fear the characters felt and had
seen.
“If you could shut your ears to the slow suck down of the
sea and boil of the return, if you could forget how dun
and unvisited were the ferny coverts on either side, then
there was a chance that you might put the beast out of
mind and dream for a while.”(Pg 109 Chapter 7)

Heart held:

 Heart held could be the most
intriguing music for the the quote i
mentioned, because it matches the
calming scenery on this moment
from the island. The one period time
of grace.

Heart held image

“The strange attendant creatures, with their fiery eyes and
trailing vapors, busied themselves round his head…
“Then it turned gently into the water”…
“Simon's dead body moved out toward the open sea”
(Pg 154 Chapter 9)

Thanos porch theme:

I chose the Thanos Porch
theme because it fit well
from what was going on
during simons death and
how dramatic it was
written, and how the
savagery of the characters
are told. The death of
Simon was traumatic for
Piggy, Ralph and some
littluns.
“Ralph wept for the end of innocence, the darkness of man’s heart, and the fall
through the air of the true, wise friend called Piggy.”
…

“He turned away to give them time to pull themselves together; and waited,
allowing his eyes to rest on the trim cruiser in the distance.”

Last chapter, last paragraph (pg 202, Chapter 12)

This represents lament and
loss from what happened on
the island and on their
journey; Survival on the island.
All the loss from piggy and simon; The escape from the island;
Represented in this dark ambient music as if it were a movie
Thank you for looking at my playlist!
