We’re pleased to announce that as of this morning our Genre Charts Beta is ready to launch! Just like we did when we launched the Top 200 we’re going to begin be welcoming Top Adds and Charts via email to submit@naccchart.com. The initial genres we’re planning to launch (and are welcoming submissions for) are Electronic, Urban (incl. Hip-Hop, Soul, R&B) and Heavy. In addition, interest and response for World and Jazz has been so broad that we’d like to start assembling those as well. Just FYI, we may not actually publish genre charts for a few weeks, but we will be using the data we receive to build simulations and models immediately. 

We’re hoping that we can announce a formal launch date ASAP, but we’re waiting to hear from our developer team who are busy at present squashing bugs and adding previously requested features to the system. Please encourage your MDs, Genre MDs and DJ’s to start reporting ASAP. The more info we get into the system now, the faster we can properly launch.
