Chilling to some 80s tunes

While it usually takes me loud angry music [1] to get out of a bad mood, I should also remember the following music can also lift my bad mood:

• The Art of Noise with Max Headroom, Paranoimia [2]
• M.A.R.R.S, Pump up the Volume [3]
• New Order, Blue Monday [4]

For that last one, it doesn't have to be the actual New Order version—these two work as well:

• Orkestra Obsolete, Blue Monday [5] (using 1930s technology)
• Modern Music of the Dark Ages, Blue Monday [6] (using medieval instruments)

Oh, this is indeed a deep rabit hole I can happily fall into …
