Some mood music.



À la Motel de Moka (for more and better themed playlists), I've compiled music for a mood that is neither concrete--nor for wooing. It starts in a secluded bath tub and drifts to a mythical place much like Pan's Labyrinth. Afterwards, it returns--hence, the track titled "The Return." And just for an attempted melodramatic ending, you'll discover the "Symbol of Life, Love and Aesthetics" (!), or at least the song. (Note: this epiphany is never guaranteed nor is it even suggested. This is only a human being's natural inclination to construct transcendental arguments, if false or irrelevant, from an experience, therefore reducing it to bullshit.) Do enjoy.
