Scene Music Choices
| Artist | CD Title | Comments |
| Enigma | Cross of Changes | Yes, I know it's worn out, but there is a reason. |
| Enigma | 1990 A.D. | Ditto. Best scene music ever made overplayed or not |
| Depeche Mode | 101 | Not for Everyone |
| Nine Inch Nails | Pretty Hate Machine | Incredible. This guy has to be in the scene. (this is my favorite scene CD) |
| Dracula | Soundtrack | Last song sucks, but the rest is really moody. |
| The Crow | Score (NOT the soundtrack) | Very eerie. |
| Dead Can Dance | Within the Realm of the Dying Sun | Fantastic Voices. Would be great ritual music |
| Mozart | Requiem | Funeral Music. Chorale. In 2000 years, the Catholic Church learned a lot about mood |
| The Benedictine Monks of Santo Domingo Di Silos | Soul of Chant | This is wonderful flogging music |
| Carl Orff | Carmina Burana | Chorale Music with attitude |
| Lorena McKinnett | Book of Secrets | Light, but sets a mood |
| Constance Demby | Novus Magnificat | Synthesizer and so evocative Almost a Mass |
| Wolf | Soundtrack | Edgy. Tends to make you nervous and your heart rate speed up |
| John Serrie | Tingri | Very soothing. |
| Bach | Brandenburg Concertos | For those quieter scenes; sort of airy. |
| Andrew Webber | Phantom of the Opera (Toronto Cast) | No, not every song, but a good number of them. This is ABOUT control |
| Apocalyptica | Apocalyptica | Four guys with cellos playing Metallica. Unforgettable |
| Interview With the Vampire | Soundtrack | NOT Jumpin' Jack Flash. But the rest is great |
| Vas | Offerings | Hinduesque Music |
| Anonymous 4 | The Lily and the Lamb | Pure, high, female voices. Crystal |
| Dead Can Dance | A Passage in Time | Sets a mood of anticipation |
| Kundun | Soundtrack | Tibetan chants and great music. A sense of doom. |
| Enigma | Le Roi est Mort, Vive le Roi | One guy said this was better than the first Enigma |
| Massive Attack | Mezzanine | Very heavy and minor key. Dreamy. |
| Delirium | Karma | Strange CD. Sort of dreamy, Enigma, NIN combination |
