Title: Let Me Down Easy: an e/R fanmix
Fandom: Les Misérables
Content notes: Two of the songs have language warnings (L). One song video has flickering (Track 8).
Fanmixer notes: I have a few things to say about the experience of creating this fanmix, starting with a couple of disclaimers. Firstly, music is highly personal and I don't expect everyone (or anyone) to feel these songs fit the characters. Secondly, my reading in this fandom centred on modern AUs because fanfic is a happy place for me and I need people to survive and find a good ending, even if they have to struggle to get there.

I started reading Les Misérables fanfic last year, not expecting to fall as hard as I did. Driving around listening to the radio I kept hearing songs that made little fireworks go off in my heart and I started to collect them. It was china_shop who suggested I make an official fanmix, who was enthusiastic about the songs, and made helpful suggestions as I put together some cover art.

This fanmix is primarily a thank you to the amazing and talented authors who write fanfic, particularly the subset who write Enjolras/Grantaire. Thank you for giving my brain a bunch of wonderful universes to hang out in.
Summary: A collection of songs dedicated to the fanfic authors who gave me e/R feels.
