It has been a jam-packed month of music this October as music-lovers all over the country put on their own amazing events all to raise money to fight poverty. Here are a few of the many Oxjam highlights from world recording breaking rappers to acoustic toe-tappers...

The Oxjam Takeover saw over 2000 artists playing in 22 cities from the 23rd-25th October. An eclectic mix of each city's finest venues played host to every imaginable genre of music, raising heaps of money and awareness for Oxfam and our climate change campaign.

Leicester's Takeover event was massive, taking over 10 venues in the city centre, with music ranging from dubstep, drum'n'bass, hip-hop and house, to jazz, soul, blues and folk, to indie rock, punk, funk and electro pop!

In Exeter, the Takeover was kick started by an intimate gig from Frank Turner, who played to a packed venue.

Norwich saw punters packing in to venues ranging from the historic Dragon Hall to the incredible Puppet Theatre.

In Cardiff, Ruffstylz broke the world record for the longest ever freestyle rap, clocking up an awe-inspiring 17 hours!

In Oxford, music lovers converged on the Cowley Road for the first ever OX4 Festival. Organised by the guys who brought us the Truck Festival, OX4 showcased some of the best local bands and musicians in multiple venues along the vibrant Cowley Road, to raise money for Oxfam. A sea of painted blue faces wandered between venues searching out their favourite acts and workshops, each of them demanding action until they were blue in the face as part of Oxfam's climate change campaign.

It's been an amazing month of music from the star-studded launch gigs (check out the video below) to the busks, jams and amazing music all dedicated to raising money to fight poverty. Thank you for your passion, inspiration and creativity. We can't wait for Oxjam '10.
