This week, the fastest moving chart for emerging European artists counts no less than 16 entries. Five of them are first-timers, including this week’s highest entry at #49: the disco stomper King Kong by Bristol production duo Icarus. At the other end of the spectrum, at #100, the wonderful Rat Boy (pictured) makes another entry with Lovers Law, the follow-up to singles like Fake ID, Move and Get Over It, all worth checking as well.
Elsewhere, Zak Abel re-enters the chart with the great Everybody Needs Love at #91, taking its chart time to an impressive 26 weeks, while his current single Unstable debuts at #95.
