Status is a chart fact: New #1 = the #1 changed since the previous day’s chart (on 2026-08-21 vs 2026-08-20); #1 for N days = the longest current run of the same #1 on our daily snapshots; Delayed = that country’s chart wasn’t refreshed in 26+ hours. “Landed” and “Gate” are SoundBorders Air theme words — a fictional theme, not an airline.

How this report is built

Country stops show which track is leading each local chart at the time the snapshot was collected.

Genre routes group countries by the dominant sound detected from the current #1 and nearby top tracks.

Artist signals show where one artist is appearing across multiple borders on the same daily snapshot.

This page is generated as a dated editorial archive for SoundBorders. The live map is built for exploration, while these report pages make the same chart data readable, linkable, and indexable for search.
