Well, when I first conceived a lot of these characters, I wasn't necessarily interested in a lot of the music I assigned to them. As music is very important to me, and I see it as a true expression of character, cultivating the taste of these characters and their relation to certain music and music in general allowed me not just to expand upon the characters, but to learn more about different types of music. The only characters I really shared taste with were the self-insert, Harvey, Rowland, and Scotto, but characters like Howard made me look more into shoegaze, neofolk, and ambient, and Laurence made me look into powerviolence. That's especially good, because I've been really into powerviolence and neofolk lately. (Especially the album on Howard's list there, 93 Dead Sunwheels, I actually found it in my mother's CD collection and was very pleased and surprised.) I even looked more into the different types of more generic "scene" music, because of Clive Morrisson and Ryoko Sugita. I'm actually kind of upset I didn't get to use them that much after working on them more after I left.
