ArcTanGent is in its third year and is a relatively small scale festival, being "the UK’s only festival dedicated to the very best music from the worlds of math-rock, post-rock and noise rock" to quote their website.

Here's all fifty singles/free downloads that comprise the Festive Fifty. To listen to all of them, you're going to have to check out the first part and then go through the ones here. If you too lazy for that and willing to skip out a couple of tracks (which aren't available), then I have constructed this Spotify playlist for you. Enjoy.
#50 Chew Lips - 'When You Wake Up' // #49 Wilder - 'Girls vs Boys'
#48 Operator Logic - 'Logic' // #47 Weekend - 'End Times'
#46 Tokyo Police Club - 'Breakneck Speed' // #45 Willow Smith - 'Whip My Hair'
#44 Errors - 'A Rumour In Africa' // #43 Sunday Girl - 'Four Floors'
#42 The Unwinding Hours - 'Knut' // #41 Hot Horizons - 'October'
#40 Yeah Yeah Yeahs - 'Skeletons' // #39 Victoria & Jacob - 'With No Certainty'
#38 Disappearers - 'Everything Straight Lies' // #37 Broken Records - 'A Darkness Rises Up'
#36 The Good Natured - 'For The Widows In My Paradise, For The Fatherless In Ypsilanti'
#35 Spark - 'Revolving' // #34 The National - 'Terrible Love (Alternate Version)'
#33 Mystery Jets - 'Show Me The Light' // #32 OK Go - 'White Knuckles'
#31 Eighties Matchbox B-Line Disaster - 'Love Turns To Hate'
#30 Jukebox The Ghost - 'Good Day' // #29 Stairs To Korea - 'All Of Your Friends'
#28 Foals - 'This Orient' // #27 Seerauber Jenny - 'Push It Away'
#26 Clock Opera - 'Once And For All'
#25-#1, after the jump. Hope it satisfies the masses.

Another storming month for singles this October. Although one in which I need to address a significant bugbear of mine. October saw the release of Cee-Lo Green's 'Fuck You' or to anyone below the age of, let's say....12, 'Forget You'. Now people have been touting this as a single of the year, let alone single of the month.
For the most part, it is an utterly brilliant song. The swearing kind of washes over yet I seem to have problems with the use of the n-word (in whatever spelled form) and although I guess the argument is that it's empowering for certain people to use the word, it just reminds me of all the horrifying hardships that so many people were put through mere decades ago. Am I being an idiot? I probably am. Feel free to tell me. But read about my favourite singles of October first...
