Quite a mad chart this week, I got a little tired of the Radio 1 Playlist so went rather off the grid with my listening plus there are some major dropouts and a bit of a mid Jorja song very high by default as old favourites decline.

Amazed Stop The Wedding isn't in yet too but it just hasn't had enough streams (looking at the stats I'd put this around #62).

However, I did turn my Wi-Fi off during some recent new music sessions so wondering if some data got missed, usually everything gets sent to last.fm once I switch it on again.

Anyway it'll be in soon enough.

Have a great weeknd!

I mostly base my Charts on the new Music I hear on the Radio and Spotify, plus from Playlists like BBC Radio 1 and italian Radio stations like RTL 102.5, Radio Deejay and many more and even from countries like Finland, Netherlands, Turkey etc. I also grab some Music, so mostly to diverse my Charts from the Mainstream.

Really like your Chart selection, sometimes you can also take a break from Playlists and Discover new gems.

Great Chart!

Take care.

Yeah, I generally use the Radio 1 playlist as a guide to what the important songs are because Spotify's New Music Friday UK & Ireland playlist is a minefield and it can be hard to know where to start even though I do add anything I like the look of on there to my own new music playlist.

But I never wanted my chart to just be the Radio 1 playlist in a different order so it's fun to get other stuff in there.

Obviously when I was young and the official charts were fun to follow most of the singles worth bothering with went Top 40, and when I went into my local record shops, there were around 10-15 singles in the new releases section so everything was very easy to comprehend but now there's tonnes of new music to get to get to grips with, New Music Friday tends to give you 100+ fresh songs every week but a lot of them are what would have been b-sides in the physical era.

It was so much easier to make sense of things then, and this is why I trust the Radio 1 playlist to act as an alternative and more diverse Top 40 whilst keeping an eye on what Radio 2 and 6 are playing too.

My system is to look at my past 30 days of streaming stats and rank the songs accordingly. I tried other ways of dong it and this was always the best one even if it means hardly anything enters high.

When I'm streaming in the evening I tend to move away from the R1 Playlist and check out other stuff on my new music playlist (the one where things are vying to get in my chart), hence all these Pete Tong-style songs getting in the lower reaches of my chart recently.
