| 1 | AINSEL | "Nonsence" | single | Aloft, in the tender claws of one of these choruses, |
| 2 | MAD JAMIE | "TOMORROW" | single | which I could probably decipher with some effort |
| 3 | Fiore | "Be a giver" | single | but you learn that being borne by nearly-weightless birds |
| 4 | ReoNa | "Someday" | single | is not an invitation to struggle, |
| 5 | yanaginagi | "Branch" | single | I start wondering if I too could write songs like this, |
| 6 | あたらよ | "青を掬う" | single | looking out the window of the plane |
| 7 | 燐舞曲 | "SHIN-RAI" | single | and thinking that flying doesn't seem so difficult. |
| 8 | yonige | "deus ex machina" | single | I think I am probably not, in this life, going to ever be Japanese |
| 9 | Otoboke Beaver | "I won't dish out salads" | Super Champon | or younger, |
| 10 | Ivy to Fraudulent Game | "泪に唄えば" | Singin' in the NOW | or less apt to fall in love with innumerable moments. |
| 11 | RAY | "Where Did Our Love Go?" | Green | I am willing to spend almost-unbounded time laboriously semi-organizing opportunities for joy, |
| 12 | Mr.FanTastiC | "Morning Dash" | 朝昼晩 | but the joy itself is definitively unlaborious, |
| 13 | TENSONG | "Haters gonna hate." | single | self-disorganizing, |
| 14 | LOCAL CONNECT | "Regulus" | Zettaitekiyokan | self-contained and all-containing. |
| 15 | LANTANA | "Kioku" | single | I cannot measure it. |
| 16 | Megara | "Estanque de Tormentas" | single | I'm not saying it can't be measured, necessarily, |
| 17 | Volturian | "Empty World" | single | but I definitely can't experience it and measure it at once, |
| 18 | Seventh Wonder | "The Light" | single | and if a scientist chooses observation over implication, |
| 19 | Carmilla | "Who Gives a Fuck" | single | I am an alchemist. |
| 20 | Cadaveria | "Emptiness" | single | We aspire ineffectually to not fear death, |
| 21 | Therion | "Litany Of The Fallen" | single | but in failure get better at not fearing |
| 22 | Opera Magna | "What Was Dreamt and Lived" | What Was Dreamt and Lived +1 | the things we might have thought we could become, |
| 23 | Jani Liimatainen | "Breathing Divinity" | My Father's Son | particularly the ones whose untenability we understood |
| 24 | Powerwolf | "Venom of Venus - The Monumental Mass" | single | before their appeal. |
| 25 | Lord Of The Lost | "The Heartbeat of the Devil - Single Version" | The Heartbeat of the Devil 5 | The stations of joy: |
| 26 | Lacrimas Profundere | "A Cloak Woven of Stars" | single | ownership is not a precondition of understanding; |
| 27 | Edge Of Forever | "Calling" | single | understanding is not a prerequisite for experience; |
| 28 | Grimgotts | "Ignite the Flame" | Ignite the Flame +2 | consumption is not the only way to fill the world with more of something. |
| 29 | Battlelore | "Chambers of Fire" | Chambers of Fire +1 | If libertarian entropy replaces hoarded power with a fetid warmth, |
| 30 | Kreator | "Midnight Sun" | single | viridian extropy converts carefully far-too-abundant power into reckless elation |
| 31 | Kampfar | "Fandens Trall" | Fandens Trall +1 | in every ethereal or guttural argot. |
| 32 | Djevelkult | "Perfect Obliterate" | Drep Alle Guder | Joy is propositional, |
| 33 | Rise to the Sky | "I Can See You When I Dream" | Every Day, A Funeral | and thus linguistic |
| 34 | Vital Spirit | "Blood and Smoke" | Still as the Night, Cold as the Wind | even when wordless or technically unintelligible |
| 35 | Varjola | "Vapaa pudotus" | single | or breathed out of somebody else's lungs. |
| 36 | Pure Reason Revolution | "Our Prism" | Above Cirrus | The joyless appeal to reason is pragmatic, |
| 37 | Riverwood | "Rise Of The Fallen" | single | merely instead of merrily, |
| 38 | Bucium | "Vânător / Orion (Hunter)" | single | as if we were given a problem-set in the form of a planet, |
| 39 | Krypton | "Păcate și ispite" | single | and have wasted most of our time arguing over how |
| 40 | Corvus Corax | "Ragnarök - Era Metallum - Bonus Track" | single | or when |
| 41 | Triddana | "The Ground of the Fallen" | single | it will be graded. |
| 42 | Gealdýr | "Gimlé" | single | The deceit of scripture is the disingenuous claim to know, |
| 43 | HYMALAYA | "Dark Planet" | single | which is why literature is so often about the fall, |
| 44 | Sharon Van Etten | "Darkness Fades" | We've Been Going About This All Wrong | or the flight that the fall turns into |
| 45 | Lande Hekt | "Romantic" | Romantic +1 | if you open your arms and your mouth and your heart. |
| 46 | iamamiwhoami | "Flying or Falling" | single | These tiniest birds can lift us if we are willing to be weightless, |
| 47 | Celest | "Dí Que No" | Dí Que No +1 | and nothing actually grounds us if we are not, |
| 48 | No Joy | "Pure Shores (feat. Marsfade)" | single | so you choose joy or it waits for you to change your mind. |
| 49 | Jesse & Joy | "Imagina" | single | Joy is voluminous. |
| 50 | Belinda | "Eden" | single | Half of this cup is enough to hold oceans. |
| 51 | Francisca Valenzuela | "Se Va" | Vida Tan Bonita | These tiny birds land on the rim to drink, |
| 52 | Cariño | "año de mierda" | CARIÑO | and to promise that your next phone will be fast enough |
| 53 | Yawners | "No Me Digas" | Duplo | to read the codes from their humming wings. |
| 54 | Astropålido | "No Vas a Volver" | Nadie Lo Sabe 4 | We watch them drinking while hanging in the air, |
| 55 | Lérica | "La Teoría" | single | and are too intent to measure how the nectar never runs out, |
| 56 | Sündflut | "Koks fürs Ego" | single | nor the air. |
| 57 | Arkaeo | "I Could Die, and Nobody Would Notice" | single | You could fly and nobody could notice |
| 58 | Ryan Oakes | "ALL ALONE" | ALL ALONE +1 | and you could circle above them, |
| 59 | I'm Geist | "be alright" | single | as if you are not subject to their flaws, |
| 60 | poptropicaslutz! | "Hysteria is impossible without an audience" | just in case the world ends | and you will only come to love them more. |
| 61 | Mikie Mayo | "...and the winner is, not me!!!" | single | They hide their weaknesses on the surfaces of their heads, |
| 62 | Stand Atlantic | "doomsday" | f.e.a.r. | edgewise to the mirrors, |
| 63 | Yawners | "Tu Cumpleaños" | Duplo | because we see others as we are, and thus assume they see us as we are. |
| 64 | Frawley | "If I Don't Laugh, I'll Cry" | single | And then you touch one, by accident |
| 65 | Anna Clendening | "Sweatshirt" | single | or accidental transitivity, |
| 66 | Savannah Sgro | "I Kiss Strangers" | single | and if one of these people can be somebody you aren't, |
| 67 | lozeak | "No Saving You" | single | then all the others can be, |
| 68 | tiLLie | "the me u kno" | single | and one of the others could be you. |
| 69 | Addison Grace | "I Don’t Wanna Fall in Love" | Immaturing 5 | Love and joy tear you off your pages. |
| 70 | Kayleigh Goldsworthy | "Losing My Mind" | Learning to be Happy | I have methods of taking notes, |
| 71 | Yawners | "Belong" | Duplo | but nowhere really to keep them. |
| 72 | Carly Rae Jepsen | "Western Wind" | single | I raise my hands to measure some distance or elevation, |
| 73 | 塞壬唱片-MSR | "Awaken" | Awaken +1 | and they blow away: |
| 74 | Jaguar Jonze | "PUNCHLINE" | single | the notes, the distances, the hands. |
| 75 | Rapsody | "Dust To Diamonds ft. Faouzia" | single | But "away" is the wrong word |
| 76 | Red Bull Batalla | "Crescendo" | single | for everything more than a centimeter from your skin. |
| 77 | Tunde Olaniran | "Propane" | single | These tiny birds get in between your earbuds |
| 78 | Sabelo zandlezinhle | "Inkondlo yami" | Inkondlo yami +1 | and your fears. |
| 79 | Cairo CPT | "Buyisa Uthando" | single | They find their own. |
| 80 | Geographer | "The Reason" | single | You are here among yours, |
| 81 | Slowly Slowly | "Forget You" | single | strangers and abandoners and one clear shape against the blur |
| 82 | De Arma | "Sunset Dreams" | Nightcall 3 | reaching out a somehow familiar hand. |
| 83 | Fleur du Mal | "Silence" | single | Silence is a liquid, too, collecting in the vessels we leave behind, |
| 84 | Puppy | "Sacrifice" | Pure Evil | in anticipation of our return. |
| 85 | Redlight King | "In Our Blood" | single | You have a mug that says "Keep Calm and Radiate" on one side, |
| 86 | Everything Everything | "Pizza Boy" | Pizza Boy +2 | and "Don't Touch My Fucking Coffee" on the other, |
| 87 | Broers | "Wat Van Nou!" | single | and when you go it sits on the counter where you put it down. |
| 88 | Ivan Roux | "Ek Moes Ek Wou Ek Sou" | single | The birds claim it, briefly. |
| 89 | Nik Kershaw | "Come On Down" | Songs from the Shelf, Pt. 1 6 | A cat bats it off. |
| 90 | The Boys With The Perpetual Nervousness | "Look Back" | single | The shards gather under the stove, |
| 91 | Yawners | "The House (Say My Name)" | Duplo | glittering, planning. |
| 92 | Sunflower Bean | "In Flight" | Headful of Sugar | All these songs about flying and falling |
| 93 | Puppet | "Hopeless To Hopeful" | New York Family | have a single goal, |
| 94 | The Dark Atom | "Lord of the Knots" | Lord of the Knots +2 | but you may have many, however evasively intertwined |
| 95 | Circle of Sighs | "c63294e-0dcf-4947-bb7c-965769967dbd" | Alabaster | or designated. |
| 96 | Mary Lou Lord | "Wasting My Time" | She'd Be A Diamond | You can't count them, but whether you will regret or cherish trying is a different question. |
| 97 | SayWeCanFly | "The Lighthouse (Live)" | Secondhand Heartbreak | The dead are calling you, |
| 98 | AWOLNATION | "Take A Chance On Me (feat. Jewel)" | My Echo, My Shadow, My Covers & Me | but the living are calling you louder. |
| 99 | The Animal In Me | "Thousand Miles" | single | Strangers, tiny birds, words, air: |
| 100 | Rain Paris | "Numb Little Bug" | single | sometimes the stories start over before they have even ended. |
| 101 | Martha and the Muffins | "Save It For Later" | single | No, not sometimes. Always. |
