Ah, June already – halfway through the year. So it's that time of the month when we take a look at the last four weeks and assemble a Spotify playlist for your delight and delectation, highlighting 50 of the best tracks of the month.
All of this month's tracks were released during May, either on an album, single or MP3 and as ever we've been (only slightly) hamstrung by Spotify's selection process (no Grizzly Bear yet? For shame, Spotify!). Yet from Dizzee Rascal through to Phoenix, Graham Coxon, The Maccabees and the Manics, it's been a typically varied month's listening here in OMH Towers.
To listen to the playlist, click here, and don't forget to leave us your comments below. For you poor people outside of Spotify's user reach, here's what's on our playlist this month:
