Lunch Trance – 2022-07-27 – Top of the Week

Changes have been made!

Well, one change only, really, but an important one: the scoring algorithm of the tool I use to create the playlist for my shows. For every day, every tracks get a certain amount of points depending on its placement, and for the final charts all those points are added up and the top 100 tracks are chosen. At least that’s what The Algorithm™ has done before this week, and it didn’t really change much but in a very significant way… because now time (or rather, time in chart) is also being considered! So if a track has been in the charts for quite a long time (and I think we all know which one I’m talking about) its daily score is now reduced by quite the amount and I must say I am happy with the results. All the other tracks around that one track are completely unchanged, only that one track has disappeared. Perfect!

The next Top of the Week show will be on next Wednesday, August 3, at 🕖 19:00 CEST/UTC+2.

Lunch Trance – 2022-07-20 – Top of the Week

Holy moly, I did not forget to record this week’s show! 🎉

I will have to do something about old tracks popping back up, though… not only did Tinlicker climb again (because it’s still in the Top 15 – almost 100 weeks after the release! Madness!) but no, Ben Nicky also made an appearance again and that will not stand. So I will develop something that will weaken the impact of tracks that have in the charts more often than other tracks and I hope I’ll have it ready by next week.

The next Top of the Week show will be on next Wednesday, July 27, at 🕖 19:00 CEST/UTC+2.
