“Each day I listen through the new releases feed and feature the songs I like in a daily spotlight thread on twitter. All the songs featured there end up in this playlist, so there's a nice representative gathering of great music that released in the month. When it comes to genre and such, I have very eclectic tastes so these spotlight playlists are great for those that like variety.”
