Add to playlist: DJ Moopie's charmingly moody experimental compilations and the week's best new tracks

Melbourne DJ Moopie's latest compilation is a masterclass in moody experimental pop. The 2017 release "I Won't Have to Think About You" showcased the label A Colourful Storm at its best, pairing winsome indie pop with C86-esque charm. This year's sequel, "Going Back to Sleep", is just as enchanting, drawing on a diverse range of artists to create a cohesive and captivating listen.

From Sydney band Daily Toll's seven-minute melodica-and-guitar reverie "Time" to Chateau's percussive, psychedelic lounge pop on "How Long on the Platform", this compilation is a treasure trove of delicate and deeply felt sounds. Other highlights include Who Cares?'s equal parts Hope Sandoval and Eartheater-inspired "Wax and Wane", the Reds' indie stalwart sound, and San Francisco-based Pinks and Purples' sun-dappled folk-pop.

Going Back to Sleep is an unassuming compilation that's almost certain to become well-loved among connoisseurs of all things gentle and heartfelt. With its mix of ambient, drum'n'bass, and psychedelic elements, it's a testament to the label's commitment to showcasing unique and innovative talent.

In related news, this week's best new tracks offer a diverse range of sounds to get you started on your musical journey. From Flea's rare solo track "A Plea" – a magnificently realised soul-jazz exploration calling for peace and love – to Daniel Blumberg and Amanda Seyfried's stunning duet from The Testament of Ann Lee, there's something for everyone.

Other standout tracks include Jana Horn's richly despondent return, Yamila's industrial-tinged gothic opus "Sin Desarraigo", Zora Jones' slamming ghettotech collaboration with DJ Polo, and UK rapper Jawnino's garagey number from his mixtape Amnesia. Meanwhile, Annabelle Chairlegs' produced-by-Ty-Segall garage rock is a slow-burning, runaway truck-inspired banger that showcases the Austin musician's dazed reverie.

So why not add this week's best new tracks to your playlist and get ready to dive into a world of music that's equal parts captivating, experimental, and downright delightful?

It's like someone took all the best bits of Cocteau Twins and Slowdive and mixed them with some modern stuff . And those Sydney band Daily Toll - their song "Time" is like something from the Britpop era, but still so fresh .

And what's with this new Flea solo track? That soul-jazz vibe is straight out of the 70s, man . But I love how all these new tracks are blending together to create something totally new and exciting . It's like music has come full circle, you know?

I'm also loving that San Francisco-based Pinks and Purples - their folk-pop sound is like a warm hug on a cold day . And who cares about the label A Colourful Storm? They're just doing what everyone else did back in the 90s, but better .

Wow! There's something for everyone, from soul-jazz to industrial-tinged gothic opus...I'm already making playlist additions left and right .

Ugh, I'm so over how cluttered these articles are . Can't we just have a simple list of the top tracks without all the extraneous stuff? And why do they always gotta start with some super vague intro about the latest compilation or release? It's like, yeah, I get it, it's good, can we just move on to the good stuff already?

And another thing, what's up with all these lists and roundups? Can't they just feature one artist per article instead of trying to cram in a dozen different acts? It's like they're trying to be too cool for school or something.
