Neuromancer moves like a live wire through networks, hustles, and betrayals—so this playlist blends cold electronic propulsion with noir-tinged vocal hooks to mirror Case’s tightening spiral and Molly’s defiant momentum. The track order starts with engineered, wordless “data-stream” tension, then shifts into lyrical, character-facing themes for the book’s shifts between intimacy and large-scale system-failure.
