I’ve made mention before that within The Ministers of Grace universe—that is, within everything that I’ve written that pertains to angels and demons—that there are these things called Angelic Keys, and that they sound pretty musical. Well, thanks to Spotify, I’m able to share with you what those Keys might sound like. Granted, these are merely examples. Each angel and Nephil who is in possession of a Key expresses it in a unique fashion. I implore you to use your imagination, but below are some playlists I’ve posted to Spotify that will allow you to listen to what the Keys might sound like in both popular and classical music. Yes, might. Gratitude and Renewal most likely sound like something different to you, but they sure sound like Hendrix & Händel and Buckley & Britten respectively to me…

If you don’t have Spotify yet in the US, you can request an invite. I’d send you one, but for some reason, I have zero invitation tokens. Sadness. I know. I will try to remedy this ASAP.
