The series contained 15 volumes. The first five were released on 21 June 1994, volumes 6–10 on 18 October 1994, and the last five volumes on 20 June 1995. Additional themed volumes—New Wave Dance Hits, New Wave Women, New Wave Halloween, and New Wave Christmas—came out in subsequent years. Rhino Records discontinued the series, due to rights issues and with no plans to re-release them. Many of the songs in the series are mastered from the 7" single masters. The series includes some songs making their first CD appearance (in some rare cases, their only CD appearance).
The tenth volume was released on both CD [R2 71703] and audio cassette on October 18, 1994. It contains the rarely heard The Little Girls' "Earthquake Song." The CD included Rank and File's "Amanda Ruth" as a bonus track. Booklet includes liner notes by Roy Trakin (liner notes for each song are in order by the track listing, unlike the previous volumes).
