This is the streaming services thread for February 2022, the go-to topic for the discussion of playlists and charts from services such as Spotify, Apple & Amazon! Spotify FAQs What is streaming? What are the chart rules regarding streaming? For streaming and chart rules related FAQs read this thread. How do I see today's Spotify chart? To see the daily top 50 update on desktop, log in to Spotify, click 'Browse', then click 'Charts', then click 'United Kingdom Top 50', or click the link below. The desktop top 50 may update before anything else so is always worth checking if the website is not up to date. However recently it has been known to not to do (even when the website has), so do check all sources. Also note that the Spotify Website will update before external websites (Kworb, LivePopBars). Occasionally there will be a delay in the Spotify chart updating which could even take days. Useful web links: Spotify App [top 50] Spotify Website [top 200] Kworb [top 200 and extra data] Hot playlist links: How often does the chart update? It should update once every day, usually in the early afternoon - although this is not 100% guaranteed. Sometimes the top 200 on the website will update but without the top 50 on the app updating, and sometimes there will be no update at all. How many plays on Spotify equals one download sale? 100 plays if you are on Spotify Premium, or 600 if you are using the ad-supported free tier. However you cannot simply play a song that many times in one day to give it one sale, you are limited to 10 plays per day in terms of what counts to the chart. (Spotify will let you play a song on repeat 600 times if you really want to). The number changes to 200 or 1200 plays when a song moves to ACR. For more information on the rules of ACR see this thread. For information on what songs are currently on ACR and what songs will be moving to ACR, refer to this thread. How much does Spotify contribute to the chart? Streaming contributes over 90% to the singles chart as a whole, although the #1 still can be decided by who has better paid-for sales. Spotify counts for a good chunk of streaming sales (although it appears to be losing some market share as Apple Music and Amazon Music gain in popularity), so doing well on Spotify is essential for doing well in the chart. Why is my fave not doing well on Spotify? Is it being promoted on one of Spotify's major curated playlists? If it isn't, it's unlikely to really take off! Hot Hits UK is the biggest of these playlists, with over a million followers. The playlist usually updates itself to include breaking hits once or twice a week, though there is no guarantee that your fave will get a place on the playlist. Also, the UK Top 50 is a largely followed playlist and that songs often experience a 'top 50 effect', when they enter the top 50 and get the additional exposure of being on the playlist. Often sales hits don't cross over to being streaming hits, this is usually the case for songs with an older target audience, reality or campaign songs. Also keep in mind that it often takes longer for a song to take off on Spotify than it would on iTunes. My fave didn't debut high and is falling already, does this mean they're flopping? Not necessarily. Most songs debut relatively low as they aren't instantly well-known, and experience a sharp decline on Day 2 as they no longer have the promoted 'New Music Friday' effect. A lot of songs manage to recover through gaining popularity and additions to playlists. Exceptions to the rule of course come from massively hyped artists/releases such as Justin Bieber/Ed Sheeran/Drake who will of course enter straight at the top. What do the numbers mean? The streaming figures cited in the daily chart are the number of streams each song received the previous day. Unlike the iTunes chart, Spotify is not a rolling chart so the numbers will only change once per day.

Lost Frequencies now #4 on Apple, #6 on Amazon, #15 on Spotify
still #1 on itunes and even charting on YT at #20 now I don't mind the song, but is it that good? I think there are much better dance songs floating around like The Motto that are much better... |

I think "Where Are You Now?" is pretty fab - since you mentioned Ava Max, it's a far better interpolation of ATC than she did. Calum Scott sounds great on it.

Ooh a new peak for The Rare Occasions! Its a shame that them/The Walters/Vundabar have stalled around that area, Im hoping at least one will eventually make the top 40.

I think "Where Are You Now?" is pretty fab - since you mentioned Ava Max, it's a far better interpolation of ATC than she did. Calum Scott sounds great on it. Where are you now does not interpolate the ATC song or anything and doesn't use any sample either Ava Max on the other hand is a proper sample and the original writers are credited Check this interview with the Lost Frequencies guy where he explain he comes up with all the samples himself: FELIX: For this track, I recorded all the samples myself. The kick came from a TR [Roland TR-8S] that I have in the studio. I really like to record my own samples because it makes me feel unique. Even though I love the sample packs I have, Im usually going to go quicker when I get my hands on my TR and look for sounds in it, pitch it, and make a groove. So with that particular sound, I grabbed the kick from the TR and then used the Valhalla reverbs. Im a big fan of different reverb plugins, but I always come back to the Valhalla. Theyre easy on the CPU, theyre great for sound design, and they have a pre-delay setting which I really like. But sometimes, Ill open up a new project and use a completely different reverb, just for the sake of it. |

The Rare Occassions is a great name for a band 😀 But not as good as The Rare Occasions As Kworb has been down for days, may I ask where Shallow is today in the UK and globally? Spotify #196 globally, not top-200 in the UK. #43 on Amazon though. |

Anyone know where Ella Henderson Brave is on the Spotify chart??
She really struggles to get any traction there and it costs her again and again and again |
