Admin Post: New Challenge: Due South Soundtrack Challenge

[seleneheart]

We haven't done a song!fic challenge on this comm since 2005 and at that point, everyone picked a random song. And Spotify didn't exist then. I think Napster was still a thing, maybe?

For this challenge though, let's take our inspiration from all the amazing music that played on the show during its run. And I don't mean just what was on the official due South Soundtrack releases. If a song played during any episode, feel free to use it to jump-start your fic ideas!

To get you started (or to wallow in nostalgia), here's a Due South Songs Playlist on Spotify

I made the Spotify Playlist with as many of the songs as I could find on there. Some of them didn’t seem to be there, so here are some other links of interest:

http://www.loony-archivist.com/dsouth/music.html (I wish this person had done the same thing with the other seasons)

Fanmix link: https://archiveofourown.org/works/6037021 - this has things that aren’t ‘official’ songs, like Fraser singing Barrett’s Privateers while Ray K snoops around and Doh Ma by Jay Semko

If you find other songs that you want me to add to Spotify, please comment with the artist and title, and I'll be happy to expand the playlist!

This challenge will run for two weeks until midnight Chicago time (CDT) on April 21, 2019. Please tag your entries with 'due south soundtrack challenge'. *skips off humming "Barrett's Privateers"*
