This week’s top 5 electronic dance music charts are as follows:

The Hot 100 is the music industry standard record chart in the United States for songs, published weekly by Billboard magazine.

The Hot 100 chart ranks the top 100 songs of the week based on sales, radio airplay, and streaming activity. The chart’s history dates back to 1958, when it was first published in the Billboard magazine. The Hot 100 has been hailed as “the music industry’s most important chart” by Billboard itself. It is one of the longest-running charts in the history of modern music, and its data is used by many news media outletsto determine which songs are having the greatest commercial success.

The Hot 100 is based on a number of factors, including: sales (both digital and physical), radio airplay, streaming platforms (such as Spotify and Apple Music), and YouTube views. In58 years of existence, the Hot 100 has undergone a number of changes, both in terms of how it calculates data and in its overall composition. One of the most significant changes came in 1991, when Nielsen SoundScan began tracking sales data for the chart. This shift marked a move away from relying purely on record labels’ shipments figures to a more accurate reflection of what consumers were actually buying.

The Hot 100 is updated every Monday morning at 11:00 AM EST, with new data reflecting the previous week’s activity being added to the mix. This means that a song that was released on Friday can make it onto the chart if it performs well enough over the weekend.

The first number-one song on the Hot 100 was “Poor Little Fool” by Ricky Nelson on August 4, 1958.

The first number-one song on the Hot 100 was “Poor Little Fool” by Ricky Nelson on August 4, 1958. The Hot 100 began with the issue dated August 9, 1958, and is currently the standard record chart in the United States for songs. Although remained on top of the chart for two weeks, it quickly fell down afterwards. Since Nielsen SoundScan began tracking sales in 1991, “Poor Little Fool” is one of only two singles that were not produced by USA artists to do so.

The second single was “Put a Lid on It” by Lawrence Welk. It remained on top of the chart for three weeks before being displaced by “Donna”, a song recorded by Ritchie Valens which would later be inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame. “Donna” would go on to spend six non-consecutive weeks at number one, making it one of the longest-running songs atop the Hot 100 in history. In total, seven different songs would debut at number one during 1958, with only “Donna”, “Nel Blu Dipinto Di Blu (Volare)” and “Don’t”, all three of which would also top the Billboard Year-End chart for 1958.

In 1959, there were a total of 11 number-one songs, with Marvin Gaye’s “I Heard It Through the Grapevine” becoming one of the most successful and well-known songs in history after spending seven weeks atop the chart. A year later, 1960 saw 12 songs reach the top spot, including Elvis Presley’s return to form with his hit single “Stuck on You”. 1961 saw 11 different songs become number one, including Ben E. King’s classic track “Stand By Me”. The following year saw a slight decrease in the number of new number-one songs, with 10 different tracks topping the chart. However, 1962 did see multiple musical genres represented at number one for the first time in history, as surf rock (“Surfin’ U.S.”A.”), girl group pop (“He’s So Fine”), Motown soul (“The Loco-Motion”), country crossover (“Sheila”), and French pop (“Dominique”) all topped the Hot 100 during 1962 .

1963 saw a significant increase in new number-one hits debuteding atop the Hot 100, as 22 different tracks reached pole position throughout 1963. The Beatles monopolizednumber ones in 1964 and 1965with an unprecedented 15 chart toppers between them; no other act has ever had more than 10 songs reachnumber one within such a consecutive timespan.
