| 1 | Teramaze | "Navigate In Solitude" | Dalla Volta | I love everything I've ever loved, basically and intricately, |
| 2 | TAKH | "Salomonne" | single | and like every other non-labor, love might reward time or effort |
| 3 | Perfect View | "Birth" | Bushido | but never requires it. |
| 4 | Degreed | "Big Plans" | single | I could easily love "絆ノ奇跡", today, as much as I ever loved "Red Barchetta" or "Wonderland" or "Silent All These Years". |
| 5 | Seventh Crystal | "Shut Up" | single | I could love a jubilant Guyanese carnival proposition I only just heard |
| 6 | Arogya | "Fade Away" | Fade Away +3 | as much as a pensive shipwreck dirge I grew up on. |
| 7 | Chrome Waves | "Forward" | Earth Will Shed Its Skin | These loves do not flourish in isolation, exactly, but they invoke associative networks, |
| 8 | Rave The Reqviem | "How To Hate Again" | How To Hate Again +3 | not logistical ones. |
| 9 | Krashkarma | "Falling To Pieces" | single | Every love evokes another. |
| 10 | Ewiniar | "Cyanide" | single | Joy and elation compound. |
| 11 | DAMPF | "No Angels Alive" | single | If it did, if love were sedimentary instead of sentimental, |
| 12 | Reasons Behind | "I³" | single | it would be hard to compete with a good progressive-rock epic |
| 13 | Ignea | "Camera Obscura" | Dreams of Lands Unseen | for my accreted adorations. |
| 14 | Cornoctuan | "Silence of the Dead Birds" | Beyond the Polaris | My parents no longer live in the house where I grew up, |
| 15 | Enchantya | "Lunar Fire" | Cerberus | and we changed the plaid-grid carpets before we moved out, anyway, |
| 16 | Degrees of Truth | "Flightmare" | single | but I can feel the patterns of it on my chest, still, |
| 17 | Locus Animæ | "Crisalide" | Crisalide +1 | from hours spent in front of a record-player wearing whatever ungainly contraptions passed for headphones in the 80s, |
| 18 | Bullet to the Heart | "Death By The Sea" | Death, Oddities & Romance 5 | listening to stories of Syrinx or Cygnus X-1 |
| 19 | Isiliel | "Koumyou Kishi" | Moonbow Genesis | and probably reading some installment of Future History or Ringworld. |
| 20 | Cran Arcanaria | "Karasu" | Raging Raven | "Progressive rock" was always a preposterous claim, |
| 21 | Roselia | "THRONE OF ROSE" | THRONE OF ROSE +2 | as is plainly obvious from the fact that most of the ways 2023 Teramaze is different from 1983 Rush |
| 22 | IDOLATER | "エンドロールを迎えてしまう前に" | single | were only faintly novel when Dream Theater did them in 1993. |
| 23 | Chaidura | "Brave" | single | We are useless witnesses of novelty, anyway. |
| 24 | GANG PARADE | "Unlimited" | OUR PARADE | Everything in my life changed between 1973 and 1983, as I went from 6 to 16. |
| 25 | GANGDEMIC | "Dansynchronicity" | single | 2013 might as well be yesterday for me, but for my kid, braving history 40 years later, |
| 26 | ASP | "TOXiC iNVASiON" | DELiCiOUS ViCiOUS 5 | it's the beginning of time. |
| 27 | #2i2 | "どうでもいいじゃんか" | single | Time, of course, like love, can start again every day, every moment. |
| 28 | Su凸ko D凹koi | "Sefure No Katteru Inu" | single | The same pieces fit together with new clicks. |
| 29 | Hitsujibungaku | "FOOL" | single | You can sue Ed Sheeran for borrowing the idea of yearning and a beat, |
| 30 | poor man's rose | "解放" | I'm Fine 5 | but you can't win that way. |
| 31 | fumika | "late first-step" | single | Everyone is allowed to rediscover the most obvious things |
| 32 | クロスノエシス | "insane" | moment | with euphoric grace. |
| 33 | End Street | "Gunita" | single | Every jaded urge you consider |
| 34 | Underclass | "You Wish It Was Me and You" | single | is somebody else's liberation swoon. |
| 35 | Say Anything | "Psyche!" | single | We are born again not at the whims of gods, |
| 36 | Llynks | "Death of Naivety" | single | but whenever we are brave and selfless for a moment, |
| 37 | Concrete Castles | "So Addicted" | single | and assume our next true names. |
| 38 | The Dollyrots | "Still Holding On" | single | This glorious Dollyrots song snaps to a halt for half a beat, |
| 39 | Laur Elle | "Burning Out" | single | and maybe they got that from "The Middle", |
| 40 | Lyncs | "Ashes" | single | but somebody young today will write a song that steals it in turn, |
| 41 | Texas | "After All" | single | or the Byrds-esque figures from this new Texas song. |
| 42 | Cowboy Junkies | "Hard to Build. Easy to Break." | Hard To Build. Easy To Break. 2 | Sharleen and I are the same age, |
| 43 | The Aces | "I've Loved You For So Long" | I've Loved You For So Long +3 | my ancestors were from her country of birth, |
| 44 | Sawyer | "Support Group" | Support Group +2 | her band is named after the state of mine. |
| 45 | Peach PRC | "Kinda Famous" | Manic Dream Pixie 6 | They are far apart, but both notable for cows. |
| 46 | Quay Dash | "Tears I Cry" | single | I know more about celtic rock than I do about longhorn cattle. |
| 47 | Bea Miller | "this call is coming from inside the house" | this call is coming from inside the house +3 | All the calls come from inside your heart, |
| 48 | Palehound | "The Clutch" | single | and maybe you move to a city where your internal signals are supposedly more ambient, |
| 49 | Brass Against | "End" | single | but you get there and whatever happens on those streets is now yours. |
| 50 | Shaneil Muir | "People Evil" | single | We transit as particles with indelible strangeness and insidious charm. |
| 51 | Timeka Marshall | "Up on Me" | single | This is the Guyanese song. |
| 52 | Jennifer Zamudio | "Hartswater" | Hartswater | I am plainly not its natural audience. |
| 53 | Mari Bosman | "Hooggety" | single | I am unmistakably a spectator even when Carnival happens in my own town, |
| 54 | Anni Lahe | "Älä päästä mua menemään" | single | no matter how much sorghum and goat I consume. |
| 55 | Dagny | "Heartbreak In The Making" | single | I had no cargo on the Edmund Fitzgerald, no friends on the Reuben James, |
| 56 | OV7 | "Si Es Amor" | single | but our own griefs can be modulated |
| 57 | Samuraï | "Beso Nuclear" | single | by the loss of other nations' heroes, |
| 58 | Carrera Blanca | "Léeme el horóscopo" | single | or arrayed as the plumage of other islands' displaced parades. |
| 59 | Blas Cantó | "Las cosas claras" | single | I love that the chorus of "Up on Me" turns not on conquest |
| 60 | Carmen 113 | "A.M.A.R.T.E" | single | but consent. |
| 61 | Locos De Atar | "Mundo Inventado" | Mundo Inventado +2 | Permission to grab me by the guitar hook, |
| 62 | Noan | "Pequeña Madrid" | single | by the soaring rasp, |
| 63 | Ligabue | "Riderai" | single | by those drum fills that sound like you dropped an empty cardboard box down a short set of stairs. |
| 64 | PG Roxette | "Incognito" | Incognito - EP 4 | There's a story about why the box is empty, |
| 65 | Ultraboss | "Like a Man Who's in Love" | single | or a house with a half-flight basement on a suburban and subhistorical street, |
| 66 | Volunteer | "Underneath the Armor" | single | but they're all stories about us, and about what we can be. |
| 67 | Red Mecca | "Eyes on Mars" | single | We are changed by places we will never go, |
| 68 | HEALTH | "HATEFUL" | single | buoyed by fears we may never shed. |
| 69 | Sepha. | "so that I can eat" | single | Sepha barely sings this for the first minute, |
| 70 | Geographer | "One / Other" | One / Other +1 | but hear one chorus and every verse thereafter is a patient plan for rapture. |
| 71 | Bell X1 | "Haint Blue" | single | Starships, helicopters: we get there how we do, |
| 72 | Reno & Rome | "Need Somebody" | single | throwing off firths and fifths. |
| 73 | The Bluebells | "Beautiful Mess" | In the 21st Century | It's not a coincidence, I think, |
| 74 | The Clientele | "Blue Over Blue" | single | that these bands of records of my youth |
| 75 | Remote control | "Makarapa(Trajolic X Mrsa X Kaiva)" | single | keep reassembling in my algorithmic notification-feeds, |
| 76 | Dlala Thukzin | "Danki Bawo" | single | interspersed with my random Sepedi obsessions. |
| 77 | Mlethwa Majola | "Sondela" | Sondela +1 | LPs are individually durable, but collectively forgotten; |
| 78 | Mjolisi | "Yindaba kabani?" | Yindaba kabani ? 3 | streams are evanescent, but streaming retrieves private memories into a public space. |
| 79 | Mjaheni | "Baby usungishiyelani" | Dututu mngani | I didn't actually keep a piece of that carpet from my childhood bedroom. I should have. |
| 80 | SGABISO | "HAMBA KAHLE SOSHA LETHU (RIP) MSIKAZI" | single | Today's children will never know a world in which their personal nostalgia isn't easily available in the Internet Archive. |
| 81 | Maredi | "Pelo e ruta boloi" | single | Scarcity, we will finally be forced to admit, |
| 82 | Dwson | "Tormented Soul" | single | was never the catalyst for fondness. |
| 83 | Rivilin | "End Me Today" | single | We fall in love because there are at least two of us, |
| 84 | Puppet | "Best Alone" | Kawasaki Boy 2 | and we are swarmed by adoring songs even in our minutes apart. |
| 85 | ILLENIUM | "Starfall" | ILLENIUM | The stars fall down around us even if we never venture further into them |
| 86 | Texture | "My Demons" | single | than this uncertain surface. |
| 87 | Susanne Sundfør | "náttsǫngr" | blómi | Strangers with childs in their eyes turn out to know our language, |
| 88 | Odd | "Dear Opulence" | Where The Sun Is Shining 5 | whether they say so or not, |
| 89 | Brothel | "ISOLATION" | single | and will not let us die alone. |
| 90 | Hollie Kenniff | "Rest In Flight" | single | We reach the part where the heartaches come: |
| 91 | Aidan Baker | "Baby Dragon Slaughter" | Engenderine | a small gray cat quietly gives up on her own tail, |
| 92 | Perdition Winds | "Predecessors to Flesh" | Burning Spiritual Crypts | or a nation's bard wins a final sundown. |
| 93 | Taurwen | "Reign of Death is Prophecy" | Omnia Mutantur, Nihil Interit 5 | Permission to remember the departed as if they remain in their songs and your pictures. |
| 94 | SOM | "Enjoy The Silence" | single | All we ever needed, |
| 95 | Sugar Horse | "Head Over Heels" | Head Over Heels +1 | unwasted time. |
| 96 | Silver Storm | "Kizuna no Kiseki (From "Demon Slayer")" | single | You never met my cat, but she was like this song, but in cat form, and lives another life in every new version. |
| 97 | Shawn Christmas | "Kizuna no Kiseki" | single | You miss this joy if you don't fall in love with tiny inscrutable fuzzballs or the theme songs to popular animes, but individual joys are not rare or precious. |
| 98 | Romix | "Kizuna no Kiseki "Demon Slayer"" | single | You turn to your child with your arms full of all the songs you've ever loved, packed meticulously for their journeys, and they look up at you, smiling, and for a second you think it's because they see what you've brought them. |
| 99 | Social Repose | "VOID" | single | And then you notice the headphones. There are gifts, and your arms may be full, but your heart has room. for G & L & L |
