Uh Uh is a dancy little pop rock song from cortex, part of an attempt to make an entire album in a month – which succeeded as Inchoatery. Another track or two may appear here.
Edit: Consider this a Saturday bonus track!

The World is Only Bad is an alt-country song that just has a great atmosphere, and a shuffling percussion.

Cherry Camp is a breezy folk song about a summer camp.

Killing All My Friends is a slow murder ballad, then pop song / “James Bond soundtrack” – which helps defuse the lyrical oddity.

Red River Valley is a sweet old cowboy song, with nice harmonizing between IngeChiles and her sister, backed by a ukelele.
It’s IngeChiles’ first appearance here!

Lady Ghostess Von Frost is an atmospheric, dancy song, with layers and builds. It’s uplifting.
It’s the last song gmm posted, and every single song he posted has been excellent.

Do the Reich thing is a loopy electronic synth, with a number of loops drifting in and out of phase. It’s inspired by a Steve Reich piece. I find it relaxing and entrancing.

So We’ll Go No More A-Roving is a folk song about the fading of love, with lyrics drawn from a Lord Byron poem. It’s still sweet and pretty. It’s ZsigE’s first appearance here!

My Favorite Sunbeam’s Gone Away is a happy and bouncy song with morose lyrics, which Karlos the Jackal always does so well.

Time To Get Up is a beautiful and epic sort of acoustic indie pop song, with a great build, both sorta downbeat yet determined to keep going, with some cool harmonizing.

shallow song/airport fiction is really two songs – first folk, then folk rock, both with ukeleles and a guitar. I really like airport fiction, and I’m not sure if it’s because, or despite, the fact that it’s really lofi.
It’s multivalent’s first posted song!

Where Is My Mind is a cool little garage rock cover of the Pixies tune, with a theremin wailing away and rockstar guitars.

Broken, soundtrack for the future. is an instrumental electronica track, all tinkly piano. It builds with loops – some soothing strings, and a slow groove bassline, and the piano, and it’s soothing and hypnotic.

never coming back is a rocking electronic song. It would work well as a soundtrack to a racing game.

Energy is a dreamy and minimal piece of electronica. It’s spacy and ambient. It has atmosphere and layers that drift out of sync with each other. It’s lovely!

Quantum Shift is a mellow and spacy bit of semi-ambient instrumental electronica.

Hamburgers is a college rock lovesong about food.

Hero is a drunken stream-of-consciousness shambles of a cover of the Enrique Iglesias song. I find this much more amusing than I should.
A Number Another Summer by The World Famous

A Number Another Summer has guitars with lots of reverb, and layers of synths, both throbbing and gently washing. The description calls out The Cure, Disintegration-era, but it stands well by itself.
