Bonus selects 10 survivors from the fertile period (1982-1989), most of which were only issued on cassette in tiny editions of 5 to 100 copies.

The remaining tracks have been sourced from musicians private archives and are being officially released on Oz Waves for the first time - Andy Rantzens industrial dub Itch-E & Scratch-E precursor, the buoyant vocal-drone of Ironing Music and Moral Fibro, Sydneys short lived answer to Weekend and Marine Girls.
