Here’s the full tracklisting, with a few notes from the curator.

1. Kidnap Kids! – “Stories”
“Naivety and being slammered. Confident, odd and my favourite new band.”

2. Myelin Sheaths- “Everything is Contagious”
“Snappy rock song about the dangers of hand sanitizer.”

3. Cloud Nothings- “Can’t Stay Awake”
“Sam doesn’t think it sounds cool enough to be on Carpark but it is. Child prodigy plays fuzzy pop.”

4. Apollo Ghosts – “Hub City”
“Complex and oh-so-vibrant pop songs.”

5. Panda Bear – “You Can Count on Me”
“The best thing to come out of Animal Collective. Good for driving and sleeping.”

6. Dirty Projectors – “As I Went Out One Morning”
“I admit they are awesome.”

7. Computer Magic – “The End of Time”
“Eighties-esque synth pop with clarity and glitchy sounds.”

8. Dum Dum Girls – “Jail La La”
“Good for her!”

9. Black Tambourine – “Throw Aggi Off the Bridge”
“Absolute classic under-achiever band I missed the first time.”

10. Warpaint – “Undertow”
This Nirvana riff is darkly hypnotic and wonderful.”

11. Woods – “The Dark”
“This B-side is my favourite Woods song. No freak outs.”

12. Sic Alps – “Do You Want to Give $$?”
“New song is good.”

13. Reading Rainbow – “Tough Love”
“Harmonic and dreamy.”

14. Juvenile Hall – “High on Drugs”
“Lo-fi Vancouver punk girls.”

15. Bare Wires – “Teen Witch”
“Not such original garage rock but who doesn’t love teen witches?”

16. Ty Segall – “Girlfriend”
“So catchy I can only love it.”
