This mix builds off the third track from Rampen (apm: alien pop music), "Pestalozzi." Also, it's not really Monday anymore. I did not set myself a reminder and with all of the *gestures vaguely at rapidly deteriorating world*, well, I ended up finishing work yesterday and playing Zelda Tears of the Kingdom while my snuggling with my cats instead of posting this mix, though I have since set myself some reminders to stay on schedule in the future.

Re-listening to this mix, it ended up being a little bit melancholy which I didn't expect, but which seems to fit to me. Perhaps important to the mix is that "Pestalozzi" references a 20th century Scottish educational reformer. Also, both "Haven't Learned a Thing" and "Dear Carlo" are exactly 5 minutes and 21 seconds long, a fact that is probably only interesting to me and that I only noticed after I had finalized the track order. The alternate title I considered for this mix was Anything that isn't crap, but I decided against it as these thirteen tracks are decidedly not crap and I did not want anything to even hint at that association.
