Music of Blindspot
Music of Blindspot 2x16 - Evil Did I Dwell, Lewd Did I Live
Standard disclaimer: all music is composed by Blake Neely and Sherri Chung; I’m getting nothing out of this except an excuse to re-watch with my own little auditory memory mini-game. Please don’t do anything shady with the YouTube links; I don’t want to get the OPs in trouble or we could lose access to this awesome content. I've linked to the original artists wherever possible. Also note that linked music recycled from season 1 was released on an official soundtrack, which is still purchasable on iTunes etc. And it’s good to support the things we love! :D

The party at Weller's place opens with Love as a Weapon by Little Scream (aka Laurel Sprengelmeyer) - that's the same song from the start of the cursed party in 2x08. Anyone who's curious can find the lyrics in the 2x08 post here. I think someone on staff must be a fan, or maybe friends (like MG and many of the others on the show, she's Canadian...ish. Born in USA but started recording in Canada) - as mentioned in that other post she's also the female vocalist for the cover songs recorded for 5x11. Or, if you want to play it in canon, then we must conclude that Weller's record collection is all for show, because apparently he only listens to one song. xD
Weller finds Jane in the nursery to a variation on Pregnant from 2x02. There's another version of the song in 2x04 (Accepting His Role). The thematic link between Kurt/Allie scenes and the empty nursery is obvious; one thing I don't know off the top of my head but I will reallllllly be looking out for next season is if any element of this theme carries over into any of Bee's scenes.
(Consider this sentence a placeholder/"note to self" for the fact that I have the track for when they're on the ftp site/talking to Cade on the phone but I can't remember what other episode it's from and therefore can't find it. 🙈)
Nas leaves the plaza and enters the hospital - a second location - to a tune that includes part of Taken from 2x03 (the Jeffrey Kantor mission) - specifically the part where the guy comes to get Jane (who's just woken up in Sandstorm Manor) and takes her to a second location in the house to meet with Shepherd and Roman.
When Weller lets slip that they need the goons in the forest alive and the one guy murder/suicides his squad, they've used Why Did You Take Her from 2x04 - when Roman brings the bloodbath truck with not enough explosives in it, and Shepherd demands to know why he took Jane to Lake Aurora. There's not really a very clear thematic link, although Roman does talk a bit in the 2x04 scene about sacrificing for the cause.
The ending montage - Patterson having the tooth pulled, Jane checking in on Roman, Jane going to Oliver's place, Tasha going to Weller's to talk about Reade, and Jane and Oliver getting drugged - is all set to an edit of High Rise by Cross Record.
