Half Machine Lip Moves logo with ‘#154’ on it.

This episode started with a set of new darkwave, post-punk, and synthpop tracks. The following three sets were mixes of goth, post-punk, darkwave, industrial, EBM, synthpop, etc. that I (Operator OT) played in my DJ sets at Club Nevermore’s event on August 14, 2021. We played a set of power electronics, death industrial, and noise at midnight with no discernible theme. And we closed out the show with a set of shoegaze, comfy synth, and ambient tracks to settle things down.
