BBC – Top 1000 artists and tracks from the Sound Index

The Sound Index is a huge index of the hottest bands and tracks that are being talked about on the internet right now.

Every six hours the Sound Index scans the biggest music sites on the internet – Last.FM, MySpace, Bebo, iTunes, Google and YouTube – to find out what internet users are writing about, listening to, watching, downloading and logging on to. It then counts and analyses this data to make a list of the most popular 1000 tracks and artists on the internet. The more blog mentions, comments, plays, downloads and profile views an artist or track has, the higher up the Sound Index they have. So, the Sound Index is a music index controlled entirely by the people.

The Sound Index is now in a public service beta phase, with data sources being finalized.
