How it is calculated

EARLY ON

The second axis

Ranked by concentration, not breadth: what is breaking hard in a few markets before the world has noticed. The chart above rewards a song for spreading; this one rewards a song for not having spread yet.

REVIVAL

The third axis

Ranked by movement weighted against the age of the recording. A new single climbing is what new singles do; a 1981 record reversing its trajectory is an event, and something caused it. The chart above has no notion of age and structurally cannot tell those apart. The record also has to have gone somewhere: one charting every day is holding, not returning.

WONDER

The fourth axis

Ranked by how many markets are asking what a song is. Shazam is a chart of NOT KNOWING: every row is somebody who heard something and had to ask. It moves on the day of the event rather than two days later, which makes it the earliest signal here.

UNDERTOW

The fifth axis

Heard everywhere, known nowhere. Songs already on streaming charts whose recognition has been outrunning their streaming for weeks: people keep hearing them in the world and asking what they are, and the burn has lasted too long to be a release-week campaign. Ranked by how long the burn has run and how hot the city charts are, never by how many markets.

Method

The Rotation chart ranks how fast a song is gaining ground across markets, not how big it is. Every score decomposes into named signals; every entry carries published receipts.
