Claude says:Mike Stroud and Evan Mast's Brooklyn laptop experiments yielded choppy, guitar-driven electronic rock that sounded like video game soundtracks colliding with indie cool. This unofficial leaked set from late 2006 — short instrumental sketches and demos for their next mixtape — arrived on your radar two years later in late 2008, right as you were digging into their catalog. You burned through it that November, then came back the following spring for another run, circling "Three," "Seven," and "Four" most often before moving on by summer 2009.
