Best music for programming 10/10

[@bapelegido]

This mix reminds me of the soundtrack from the movie Hanna(2011), it's the one that stars Saoirse Ronan, Cate Blanchett, Eric Bana and Tom Hollander. Highly recommend the movie if you haven't watched it yet🤗

[@brb8407]

ORAX-Ectoplasmic (15:07) Is really good, I love the bass guitar. The way it keeps building up anticipation (for lack of knowing much music terminology) is dope. And the voice that shows up for just a couple seconds was really good. 10/10

I thought the thumbnail was som representation of the Devil, but now, looking at it from upwards and more attentively, I can see it is a scarab. Still, pretty cool. And the tracklist is just amazing, out of this world!
