ONE LOVE STORY. ONE R&B ALBUM. EXPERIENCE THE SONIC JOURNEY.
Welcome to the multi-sensory heartbeat of Black Maple Magazine Productions. Who said movies get to have all the fun? We believe that soundtracks are for novels too. Our smooth R&B and Hip Hop Blood and Water album is the ultimate, must-have addition to your reading collection. This intoxicating release is the atmospheric, soul-stirring companion piece engineered to score the deep passion, high stakes, and raw isolation of Andrea Ramirez's industry-transforming romance novel.
When a record-breaking winter storm strands Jamaican-Canadian art consultant Alexandra (Lexy) Peters and high-powered Ukrainian-Canadian labour lawyer Derek Crane inside Room #1207 of Boston’s Bonaventure Hotel during a 1999 blizzard, they are suddenly swept up in the undertow of explosive secrets and an undeniable heat. Our soundtrack maps their second chance from the tenderness of a 1989 lovers’ promise—cruelly ripped away by a heinous crime—to the unquenchable passion that a decade apart could not destroy.
Our innovative 13-track album is not just background noise. Instead, this collection of 9 core tracks and 4 alternate bonus versions delivers an insider perspective on the psychology of our protagonists, capturing their agonizing choices, passionate longing, and the debilitating coping tactics of their ten-year exile. Sung entirely from the distinct perspectives of Lexy or Derek, these tracks deliver an intimate look into the characters' inner worlds, raw desires, and heartbreaking vulnerabilities.
Featuring tender romantic ballads like Lexy’s emotional confession "Breaking Your Heart, Broke Mine in Two" (track #2), defiant grooves like Derek’s prideful flex "Three Count" (track #7), and Luther Vandross-esque mid-tempo smoothness like "Flooded by Memories" (track #3), each song captures the passionate caresses, intense confrontations, and explosive revelations of Lexy and Derek’s decade-long love story. Experience the stunning emotional rollercoaster of their ice-melting, 72-hour lockdown during the 1999 Boston blizzard right into the complex pressure cooker of their second chance back home in Toronto.
Soundtrack Spotlight
- 🎵 "Flooded by Memories" – A haunting, atmospheric slow-burn track capturing the weight of the secret and the unforgettable history rushing back inside Room #1207.
- 🎵 "Three Count" – A heavy, mid-tempo powerhouse song built on suspense and a ticking clock. It scores Derek’s unyielding devotion as he navigates the suffocating, neon-lit superficiality of Club Plush, desperate to escape the noise and get back to the only woman who matters.
Get the soundtrack, read the story, and watch the ice melt.
