📊 Are charts based on plays, votes, or editorial picks?

Our charts are based on official music rankings, not on TMRadio plays or listener votes. 📊 We follow trusted UK chart data to highlight what's hot in the wider music scene — especially tracks that crossover with gaming or youth culture.

📈 Charts We Use:

  • 🇬🇧 Official Singles UK Chart Top 40 – The main chart we reflect in weekly and special segments

  • 📻 EE Official Big Top 40 – Another popular UK chart that influences our coverage and commentary

🎧 Our DJs may still highlight personal picks or under-the-radar tracks in their segments — but official chart shows stick to these two sources.
