Playlist for July 2012

It was tricky to compress this month's best music into a two-hour playlist, in part because I was making more of a note of tracks to go into it. I probably could've done three hours, but in the end decided to concentrate on stuff not found elsewhere on the blog to counterbalance the tracks representing the month's Recommended Albums - of which there were five: three albums and two EP's - and Singles of the Week - of which there should be more of; I might have to move the day I do them on for that. I'm currently also listening to some albums from earlier in the year, so there's a high chance there will be some more Recommended Albums soon.

This month's playlist is below, firstly in hyperlink-crazy format (be aware that a few lead to Youtube videos with ads):

Antibalas - "Dirty Money" (Radio Edit)
Blur - "Under The Westway"
Twin Shadow - "Golden Light"
Ty Segall Band - "Tell Me What's Inside Your Heart"
Dirty Projectors - "See What She Seeing"
Tame Impala - "Apocalypse Dreams"
Ariel Pink's Haunted Graffiti - "Only In My Dreams" (Single of the Week)
Dan Deacon - "True Thrush"
Aesop Rock - "Gopher Guts"
The Gaslamp Killer - "Flange Face" (feat. Miguel Atwood-Ferguson)
John Tejada - "The Function And The Form"
Tall Ships - "Gallop"
The xx - "Angels"
Kendrick Lamar - "Swimming Pools (Drank)"
Taken By Trees - "Dreams"
Sun Airway - "Close"
The Field - "Comenius Garden"
Evian Christ - "FYTS"
Frank Ocean - "Bad Religion" (link to live Jimmy Fallon performance)
Passion Pit - "Love Is Greed"
SBTRKT - "Gloss"
Flying Lotus - "Between Friends" (feat. Earl Sweatshirt and Captain Murphy)
Bat For Lashes - "Laura"
Macklemore X Ryan Lewis - "Same Love" (feat. Mary Lambert) (Single of the Week)
The Antlers - "Zelda"
TNGHT - "Higher Ground"
Animal Collective - "Today's Supernatural"
David Byrne & St. Vincent - "Weekend In The Dust"

Here's the vastly incomplete Spotify version (it runs for around one hour). I also went back to last month's playlist and filled in some of the gaps.
