So I’m super excited about this new feature here! Every Monday I’m going to be sharing a mixtape about a particular part of Grimm – whether it’s tracking the story of a season or the tone, a single character or a pairing. Each will feature 22 songs, and I’ve got it all in a spreadsheet so I won’t feature a single song twice. I’ve got a broad taste in music, and especially in the story playlists, I’ve also included songs that might not be to my taste but fit the theme. But! When I try to match tones with Grimm, expect dubstep, driving cello pieces, dark electronica and a touch of metal, like the fantastic soundtrack, which may still be available to purchase in CD format from Amazon.

Next week will be a Monroe-themed playlist, with accompanying fancy graphics.

Each link takes you to a YouTube video of the song, simply because I like a lot of covers that you can’t find anywhere else.

Series Four Playlist

In this playlist, I’ve tried to track the main storylines as much as possible, so there is a mix of tones and tastes as I’ve tried to capture the story.
