Music news these days can be kind of impossible to keep up with. It seems to be this constant scream of information, unintelligible by the sheer speed that it shoots by at, often borderline unintelligible in the first place – “what was that thumping past like an Olympic air defence missile about the one out of The Vaccines' twitpics from his holiday in Marbella again?” - and that being the case, DiS recently took the move to step away from news lest we're all sucked into some gaping cyber abyss of rumours, get-there-first reporting and regurgitated press releases.
So instead, we'll be bringing you a digest of the important goings-on each month in neat mixtape form. This month - Frank Ocean issues a statement on his sexuality, Death Cab For Cutie's Ben Gibbard goes it alone, Animal Collective take to the radio, Lykke Li leads a Fleetwood Mac love-in and more...»

So, have a listen to it, for zero pence...»

Given that a lion's share of music news is of the "Hear this new song by..." variety, we thought it best to catch up on the past month or so within the context of the tunes themselves. At best, I hope to serve up a healthy dose of the cream of the crop, while the worst you might endure is a tasty feast for your ears above some recent facts to complete a well-rounded stew of new tune nutrition. So, without further ado, behold! The first-ever music news mixtape.»
