<\/a>Julie Thephachan <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Mason Kilpatrick: What is your favorite color and why? MK: What do you mean right now, like do you have phases of favorite colors? MK: I dig it, I dig it. When did you realize that you really liked music, or began to listen to music with the intent of finding of what you liked? MK: How did “The O.C. (the show)” influence your musical taste? MK: Character development. Very cool. MK: I remember Fuse TV. Do you remember the first ever album that you bought? MK: Something you bought on your own. MK: Oh, very cool. I like that album. MK: Why so?\u00a0And do you still listen to it now? MK: Since you were a DJ for At the Movies so long, music is a big part of your interest in film. Is there one soundtrack that sticks out to you? A soundtrack or album that has an emotional connection with you or a memory? MK:\u00a0A connection that you connected emotionally, such as something you cry to, or laugh to. And you always carry that emotion or memory with that soundtrack for the rest of your life. MK: I guess an example for me, while not a soundtrack from a film, would be Tobias Jesso Jr.\u2019s “Goon.” I really bonded with that album when going through a break up phase. So I will always hold that album close to me because it helped me through a tough time of transitioning in my life. MK: I see. MK: From Rocky? MK: I guess this is where we are different with music because when I listen to an album, or anything really, I attach it to a specific memory, emotion, or image. And when I think of an image or memory, I attach a song to it. Do you do that at all?

\n<\/strong>Julie Thephachan: I don\u2019t have a favorite color. \u2026 I think right now it’s emerald green.<\/p>\n
\n<\/strong>JT: I think I go through phases, and then I also like a lilac-y milky purple, sometimes. I don\u2019t even know what that exact color is.<\/p>\n
\n<\/strong>JT: I think middle school. I liked a lot of music but I think it shifted and I started finding a lot of music I liked after watching “The O.C.”<\/p>\n
\n<\/strong>JT: I think I was watching it and I really liked the theme song that was by Phantom Planet. And then there was one episode where Rooney came on and they played \u2018”\u2019m Shakin.” I even remember the scene. There was one snobby, preppy guy singing to it but he was being goofy. It was when the character turned from being awful to kind of loveable.<\/p>\n
\n<\/strong>JT: And they would put out mixes for every season and I was obsessed with it. I think I also started watching Fuse around that time and I really followed music from that point on.<\/p>\n
\n<\/strong>JT: Do you want the first album that my parents bought me or the one I bought myself?<\/p>\n
\n<\/strong>JT: I didn\u2019t buy CDs for a very long time. But I think my first one was Interpol. “Antics.”<\/p>\n
\n<\/strong>JT: I don\u2019t remember liking it the first time I got it.<\/p>\n
\n<\/strong>JT: Yeah, I still listen to it now. It is my favorite Interpol album. I had to listen to it constantly because I bought it with my own money and my dad put it in the CD player of the car. He had picked me up\u00a0from the mall. We were listening to it awkwardly because neither of us liked it at first and I felt bad. He gave me money to buy it and took me to the mall. So he wanted to see what I bought with the money. But then I made sure I listened to it because I felt so bad that I spent money on it–but I really love it now. I think it had to grow on me.<\/p>\n
\n<\/strong>JT: Connects?<\/p>\n
\n<\/strong>JT: Hmmm\u2026<\/p>\n
\n<\/strong>JT: I don\u2019t actually listen break up stuff. I remember listening to Purity Ring a lot and now I can\u2019t anymore. Even though I used to listen to it all the time, I can\u2019t hear it now and listen to it.<\/p>\n
\n<\/strong>JT: I really like the score to “The Tenant,” one of Roman Polanski\u2019s films. It is a really creepy score. I also really like that “Gonna Fly Now“<\/i> song..<\/p>\n
\n<\/em><\/strong>JT: Yeah, I don\u2019t know. That song makes sad and happy at the same time. I find it motivating.<\/p>\n
\n<\/strong>JT: I mean, it might not be a specific Beach Boys album but top hits from The Beach Boys remind me of Lord of the Flies<\/i>.<\/p>\n
