Damned interesting made an interactive where you can listen to it and see the encoded graphics: http://voyager.damninteresting.com/

Some of the music selection they added to the golden record is actually really ... good. I think it captures a good cross section of Earth.

But it missed Despacito
They got Chuck Berry's Johnny B. Goode and Izlel je Delyo Hagdutin on it so at least they captured both America and the centuries-long ripple of enmity between various Eastern European Slavs and the Anatolians.
