“Hello, sestra…”
We saved the craziest for last (for now…).
I thought making Helena’s playlist would be the hardest, but once I got started, I fell into a trippy hole of songs wrought with heavy beats, distortion, and lyrics to make you feel just on the edge of insanity.
“I dreamed we were friends.”
Be warned: in addition to driving you the brink, this music may cause oddly poignant cravings for donuts, jello, and toast.
“I just want to make, like, crazy science with you. Totally crazy science.”
Okay, but, seriously… has anyone in the history of ever watched Orphan Black and not fallen totally in love with Cosima Niehaus? Ever?
I’ll take that as a “no.”
The adorkable west-coast pot-smoking geek monkey of the crew, there is so much more to Cosima than her sexuality (and glasses), as much as we love that too. This edition of the Clone Club soundtrack is for her. I’d like to think she’d make some crazy science to these techno beats, or just dance around the lab, arms flailing.
“Welcome to the trip, man.”
“I just wanted to say eff this, eff you… And I effed it. I effed it all up.”
It’s time for another edition of Clone Club: The Soundtrack! This week is for the pinot-drinking, headband-wearing, community-theater-diva, soccer mom herself: Mrs. Alison Hendrix.
Alison no doubt would listen to this mix in whilst angry-singing in her SUV, or while dancing around her perfect house with a glass of white in hand. So, in her spirit, I suggest you do the same.
“The Clash rock!”
“Yeah, but you don’t.”
Recently, my sister gave me a fun challenge to create individual playlists for each of the main characters of Orphan Black. (If you haven’t watched it yet, go now. Right now. It’s Friday, it’s only two seasons in and it’s amazing.)
There are – as of now – four playlists in total. Today’s featured mix? None other than our resident rebel, Sarah Manning. You’re damn right.
Enjoy!
