Since most of us that love dance music or actual music that is not played 5 times per hours on Top 40 repeatedly such as that Megan Trainer or Bruno Mars crap it’s a struggle to get our music played on the radio. Most of the radio stations in the United States are owned by Clear Channel Radio and they have a formula where they pretty much make most of their stations play what comes down from corporate. I hate to break it to you but there is really no such thing as DJ requests on top 40 radio but calling in and getting your “vote” in may count almost as much as voting in the election. Not much but it helps in a rigged system. I noticed a few posts from other fans of underplayed music and thought I would make my own to make sure it gets played! This is more of a United States based radio airplay list but with some International stations.
Artists like Madonna who do not go on a big radio tour plugging their music find themselves banned from Top 40. Taylor Swift and Lady Gaga go on intensive radio station appearances and even the country stations in Kansas see them show up. The reason is artists such as Madonna have a family and put more time into her tour making it perfect from start to finish and it may not be in her contract like it is with most artists that they have to hit up all these stations. We would love to see more of the Rebel Heart album played on radio and in clubs of course but to do this we need to get the word out and get her added to the playlist. Because Madonna and most dance music do not have the annoying pre-teen following such as #BELIEBERS, #LITTLEMONSTERS, #KATYCATS, #SWIFTIES, #GLAMBERTS, #RIHANNANAVY and so on… we have to help promote in alternative ways to see a song played more.
A start is online streaming. Billboard changed its metric for ranking the Hot 100 a few years ago to weight online streaming pretty heavily. Billboard’s Hot 100 rankings are now a combination of 1) digital sales, through outlets like iTunes and Amazon; 2) radio requests and plays; and 3) online streaming as reported on the On-Demand Songs chart.
Listen to the song a few times per online station. Try to use one of these online services such as Spotify, Pandora or Soundcloud instead of your personal iTunes.
• Tunein
• Pandora
• Rdio – free registration required but you can sign in with Facebook
• Slacker – no registration required(? it’s not working for me, so i can’t verify)
• Spotify
• Rhapsody – site registration required (free 30-day trial)
