I'd like to present to you all my first mixtape. These songs are all similar of mood, but different of style. For the most part the mood is downbeat, verging on miserable. Style-wise we've got some Indie-sulk favourites, Electropop, Weird shit + Sci-fi movie scores. Hooray. It's titled 'The Robert Moog Blues,' after the legendary Robert Moog (R.I.P), who invented the Moog synthesizer, an instrument I tried to maintain focus on throughout the mix. Anyway, I hope you enjoy.
