Yb. powered to the top of the list this week, with “Blackphemy” gaining the most adds on the Australian new music playlists in Australia. This is huge and wide-ranging support – not only did he beat out some much more established artists, not only did it make it onto nearly 40% of the lists that updated this week (and there were more of them than usual too), but he also got support across the board from major and independent lists alike. Quite the performance.
Most Playlisted This Week
🥇Yb.
🥈Big Skeez, DZ Deathrays, Lime Cordiale, RedHook, WILSN
🥉1300, Maina Doe, Speed
New tracks from playlist mainstays like Lime Cordiale and the ever-excellent DZ Deathrays were only just a tick off the top of the list too this week, with the superb WILSN again gaining a notable amount of support for her new collboaration with Josh Teskey. Personal faves RedHook also narrowly missed the top slot with the bouncing mayhem of “Soju”, which also features Sly Withers.
Elsewhere, Maina Doe got really strong support, as did the fizzing 1300, while hardcore outfit Speed made the top end of the list for a second week as more playlisters caught up with last week’s monster release “One Blood We Bleed”.
Big Skeez was the Story Of The Week though, only just missing out on the top spot with “Work Don’t Stop”, a fantastic show of support, and one which put him on as many lists as some waaay more established acts.

The image above is a screenshot of the top end of the full lists. You can see this week’s lists here – those are updated on Mondays and allow you to scroll down the whole list. That page also details a bit more about how the whole thing works and what the charts mean.
You can also listen to the most playlisted tracks on, er, a playlist that I keep updated here. This has got the latest 50-ish most playlisted tracks from the last month or so on it, and it’s a decent spin through recent tracks that Australian new music playlisters are adding. The playlists that I track are the same as the ones listed in the Playlist Guide.
