Across the Grooves: Mood Guide

So you want to focus on one attitude, right?
Well, here’s a guide where I list literally that.
Most of the choices are Spiral/Lightning or Skull/Flower, but not all.

Through my playthroughs, I’ve deduced that:
Spiral seems to be focusing on the past and using the record and learning about the record.
Lightning seems to be about being emotionally distant, or at the very least not overly concerned with the emotional responses..
Flower seems to be emotional, dealing with love and the heart.
Skull seems to be more about the present mystery surrounding the record

I may be wrong about this though.
