This is an overview of the the top fifty releases sold on Discogs in May 2016, by volume. I have wanted to initiate this project for quite some time now to give you, our community, an idea as to the pulse of what’s hot. It should be somewhat intuitive, but here’s the gist of what’s going on: For master releases, the total count of all items sold inside that release are summed together for those tallies. April’s chart positions (“Previous Month’s Position”) have been included so that at least some amount of movement can be determined. It’s my goal to run this chart at least once a month, though this window may be adjusted if you would appreciate seeing a weekly chart for the Discogs Top 50 and if this proves to be beneficial to you.

For the most part, there’s no real mystery here to anyone who’s been buying or selling records in the past few years, but there are a few surprises. Let us know down below what you think!
