	Yay, I love to compile mix-tapes, although my themes are always dorky. Like this: here's a tape that fulfulls your criteria and only uses songs with one-word titles: Hhai by Magma (for Zeuhl) Fracture by King Crimson (for art rock) Freedom by Art Bears (for RIO) Alifib by Robert Wyatt (for Canterbury) Halleluwah by Can (for psyche) Sickening by Meshuggah (for prog metal) Megalopoli by Area (for fusion) Metropolis by Kraftwerk (for electronic) Backdrifts by Radiohead (for prog-pop) Soundchaser by Yes (for symphonic) None of these bands are obscure, unless you just haven't bothered to listen to Art Bears yet. =P
