Friday 13 April is our lucky day! Last week’s edition of the European Border Breakers Chart was relatively slow on new music, but today it’s revenge time. We welcome 23 emerging European artists in the Top 100, 14 of which tracks never graced the chart before.

Please say hi to: Bvd Kult feat. Ot – Let You Go (#14), Mike Rogers feat. Abee – What Should I Do (#46), Alice Merton – Lash Out (#47), Berna – Won’t Stop (#56), Sam Fender – Friday Fighting (#60), Biig Piig – Perdida (#66), Project Mama Earth feat. Joss Stone – Mama Earth (#72), Goat Girl – Viper Fish (#77), J Colleran – Bera (#90), Tamino – Habibi (#92), Mist – Game Changer (#93), NOTD feat. Bea Miller – I Wanna Know (#95), Dead Sea – Know Where (#97), and Keir – Squeeze Me (#100).

As always it’s funny to see that what radio stations play is totally different from what music lovers stream. See for yourself by comparing the Airplay Chart with the Streaming Chart.

For the main Top 100, combining airplay and streaming data, click the ‘EBBChart’ tab in the top menu of this blog (loading of the PDF may take a little while). More charts, like the Tips (ranking the tracks that are on their way to the Top 100), are available at www.europeanborderbreakerschart.eu, where you can also listen to all of the tracks and watch their videos, as well as share them via social media.
