| 6 | PVRIS | "I DON’T WANNA DO THIS ANYMORE" | EVERGREEN | and then some of those cities are yours |
| 7 | Oldsoul | "Lavender Cane" | single | and you have to decide what you are going to do with them: |

| 15 | Eleine | "Promise Of Apocalypse" | We Shall Remain | which it was always, but only sometimes, |
| 16 | Edge Of Paradise | "One More Time" | Hologram | and nostalgia is usually also an exercise in orthogonality, |

| 35 | Houston | "Power Over Me" | Re-Launch III | Would you dance with me tonight? Is this the answer? We shouldn't wonder, |

| 40 | ラックライフ | "軌跡" | single | We are awed by consequences of our orbit, |
| 41 | LONGMAN | "spiral" | single | but this is a propitious way to begin |
| 42 | toybee | "Planet Debris" | REVIVAL | each day: |
| 43 | yutori | "ワンルーム" | single | gather each small space you find yourself in around you, |
| 44 | MindaRyn | "BLACK STAR" | single | in preparation for defending it against monsters |
| 45 | MyDearDarlin' | "Kaleid0scopE" | single | or gentrification and short-sighted zoning. |
| 46 | 花冷え。 | "今年こそギャル~初夏ver.~" | single | One window looks over the narrow green space where they tore down a highway, |

| 63 | Bad Luck. | "Turn It Off" | Turn It Off +1 | This was never true before, and will neither be true now, |
| 64 | Spanish Love Songs | "Pendulum" | Pendulum +2 | but we cause no harm by having to learn things for ourselves. |
| 65 | The Front Bottoms | "Emotional" | Emotional +2 | Or we do, but that harm is the inevitable investment for whatever we manage to repair |

| 83 | Local Bastards | "Chaos" | single | I know when entropy isn't quite completely irreversible yet, |

| 98 | Alana Springsteen | "hypocrite" | TWENTY SOMETHING: Figuring It Out 6 | We believe things we can't possibly believe, |
| 99 | julek ploski | "Serduszko" | single | and the combination of these tensions and the ground's spin makes them into patterns |
| 100 | BT | "The Turing Test - Producer's Cut" | The Secret Language of Trees | we say we could never have devised ourselves. But somehow, when asked to edit them, we speak instinctively in their voice. |
