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.
tracklist
| 1 | Alain Goraguer : Generique |
|
Perfect intro. It's umistakably Sci-fi. It's short enough to appear as a sort of intro, which it is. It's slow, maybe even a little sexy for this mix, but ultimately it fits the mood and theme of this tape perfectly.

| 2 | M83 : Unrecorded |
|
Wow. Oh so moody. The strings, the drums, and the divine Moog throughout the track make it perfect mood-wise, the surplus of synths make it perfect Moog-wise. (See what I did there!)

| 3 | Air : Empty House |
|
Nice and slow. Everybody knows Air love their synthesizers. This track just reminds me of the film 'The Virgin Suicides.' Now that movie certainly makes me feel uneasy and a little gloomy.

Again, muchos synthos. Totally reminds me of horror movie soundtracks. This song just sounds... heavy. It's a little creepy too.

| 5 | Kylie Minogue : Confide In Me |

Only one Kylie track on here, what is this! Anyway, this song would be embarrasing, but I really don't care. This track makes me feel lonely. It's hard to explain, but the mood of this song is perfect for this tape.

| 7 | Interpol : Untitled |
|
This song always hits me hard and always just knocks me into a melancholious mood. No synths here, but it still feels a little 80's, and feeling miserable old-school is part of the point behind this tape.

An instrumental track. To me it sounds pissed off and angsty, in a general bad mood. Also comes from a benefit comp called Make Mixtapes Not War.
