Every week, I take a look at the best playlists in Australia and the biggest playlists in the world and analyse the artists appearing on them.
All of these playlists focus on newly-released tracks – what this means is that these lists can be seen as the bets that critics and tastemakers are making on which artists and tracks are going to blow up next.
By looking at who’s appearing on these playlists, you can start to see who’s showing signs of breaking out, taking it to the next level, or soundtracking every waking moment of your life this week.
The latest report is embedded below, but you can also play around with the dashboards that contain the full data from the latest week here.
If you’re on a mobile device, the report may not be that easy to read on a small screen. You can download the PDF direct here: tap on this link and then open it in Books.
