Deity Playlists! (and music recs)
When it comes to music, unfortunately the Norse pagans have us beat. There's like six or seven Norse pagan bands, and plenty of vaguely Norse and/or Celtic-themed fantasy music. The only Hellenic pagan band I know of is Daemonia Nymphe. Beyond that, we've got music reconstructionists like Petros Tabouris and Michael Levy. I've also got a lot of video game soundtrack (Hades, Assassin's Creed: Odyssey, Apotheon) on my personal playlists. I mostly fill my deity-specific playlists with any songs that remind me of them, so they're pretty eclectic, though I try to keep some degree of aesthetic cohesion.
Here are all the playlists I've created so far. I'm pretty proud of these! I put a lot of hard work into them:
Olympian vibes (general ritual playlist)
Zeus
Poseidon
Demeter
Ares
Hephaestus
Athena
Apollo
Artemis
Aphrodite/Eros
Hermes
Persephone/Hades/Thanatos
Hekate
Dionysus (and a more ritual-focused variant)
The Mousai (mainly Ourania)
A syncretic Pan/Cernunnos/folkloric-Devil (for the trad-witch side of my practice)
Some of these are longer than others, so they're a work in progress. I've gotten a lot of great music recs from the community! Any suggestions for me? Any other deity playlists I should create?
