A Soundclick experiment:

So yesterday I had 3 plays of Internal Innuendo and this was my chart status:


Internal Innuendo:
· #109 in the Classical charts
· #38 in the Film Music sub charts

Naked (Demo):
· #4267 in the Electronica charts
· #307 in the Mellow sub charts

Entropy (Guitar Demo):
· #3935 in the Rock charts
· #967 in the Rock General sub charts

Flutter (Demo):
· #2260 in the Alternative charts
· #531 in the Indie sub charts


I decided to try something. I played all of my tracks at home, both hifi and lofi... and I did the same thing at work. I figured that would give me at least 4 plays on each song and I wanted to see what happened in the chart if I did that. Well this morning I was shocked!!!

60 plays!!! eyepop The only time I've been over 60 is when I first put my page up.

Internal Innuendo: 11 plays
· #87 in the Classical charts

Move - JD Remix: 12 plays
· #971 in the Electronica charts
· #89 in the Ambient sub charts

· #508 in the Alternative charts
· #97 in the Indie sub charts

Entropy (Guitar Demo): 6 plays
· #1926 in the Rock charts
· #434 in the Rock General sub charts

Naked (Demo): 8 plays
· #75 in the Electronica : Mellow sub charts

Belong (Demo) 6 plays
Entropy (Guitar Demo) 6 plays
Flutter (Demo) 11 plays
Internal Innuendo 11 plays

So for the past few days, I've been playing all my tracks twice at home and at work if I can. Just to see what happens. What I'm doing now is clicking on the band radio option and just letting all the tracks play while I get ready for work. I do hifi and lofi. Yesterday, this would have given me 2 plays for each track, since I didn't go to work.

What I'm finding really interesting is that all these songs are getting plays, and they haven't been getting plays for a while. Like the songs at the bottom of the list, Naked and Belong, these have had zero plays all month. Now they get 6 when I play them twice. Very interesting. I've been keeping track daily over here: http://groups.msn.com/Vin...l_topics=0

Belong (Demo) 6 plays
Naked (Demo) 6 plays

Internal Innuendo: 6 plays
· #144 in the Classical charts
· #56 in the Film Music sub charts

Move - JD Remix: 8 plays
· #620 in the Electronica charts
· #60 in the Ambient sub charts

Flutter (Demo): 6 plays
· #360 in the Alternative charts
· #66 in the Indie sub charts

Entropy (Guitar Demo): 6 plays
· #1898 in the Rock charts
· #410 in the Rock General sub charts

Naked (2003 Demo): 6 plays
· #114 in the Electronica : Mellow sub charts

So go home and play all your tracks!

Interesting...
Do you have that soundclick mp3 player by any chance? I think all plays will count twice when played with the soundclick mp3 player. We're then still 2 plays short of an explanation but hey smile

I'm using winamp.

One thing I thought was that once you're in the top 100 you'll get more play because people might be playing the chart radio. Other than that I have no idea.
