Want to pretend you were on the London set of 2014’s original Guardians of the Galaxy movie? Well, now you can — or, at least, you will know what music to play while you indulge in that fantasy. The film’s director and co-writer James Gunn has released the playlist for “Awesome Mix. Vol. 0,” a sort of the prequel to the hugely successful Guardians soundtracks, which features the songs to which Gunn and crew were grooving during the GotG shoot.

“I finally got around to making a Spotify playlist of ‘Awesome Mix Vol. 0,'” Gunn wrote on Twitter, “the secret, personal mix I made to play on the set of Vol. 1, especially for the drunken partying scenes in the Boot of Jemiah. Enjoy!”

Tunes featured on “Awesome Mix Vol. 0” include “Party Hard” by Andrew W.K., “Teenagers” by My Chemical Romance, “Let’s Dance to Joy Division” by The Wombats, and “Timebomb” by Old 97’s.
