How we counted
Each WARM chart ranks songs by the plays WARM detected that week on its own panel of radio stations: one panel for dance, one for urban. This report adds up the weekly charts WARM published between 19 June to 8 October 2026 (14 dance weeks, 15 urban weeks). A song's plays are summed over the weeks it was in that chart's Top 100. Plays on stations outside the panel, and in weeks the song was below the Top 100, are not included, so these totals are a floor.
A song is identified by its fingerprint ID and its ISRC, not by its title. When one recording carried two IDs (a radio edit listed twice, for example), we joined them: 245 such joins. A row whose title and artist both changed between weeks would have been left out; there were 0.

How are the plays counted?
WARM identifies songs on radio by audio fingerprint. A play counts when it was detected on a station in the chart's panel. Each song's plays are summed over the weeks it was in that chart's Top 100, so a song's plays in weeks outside the Top 100 are not included. Charts that were never published are not used.

Yes. Quote them with a link to this page and name WARM as the source. For a song's full airplay, station by station, add it to WARM.
