December 01, 2023 – WELCOME TO 2024. November is the first month of the new release year and it did not disappoint. Music flows like water .. always changing from a trickle to a flood. And because there’s so much music in our state, we’re often flooded with new tunes. See below for all the (D) debuts.

New music hit as we left the month behind, including the latest from Big Head Todd and the Monsters, CITRA and Izcalli.

ABOUT THE CHARTS

Every Sunday I survey over a dozen community/public and college stations. The monthly survey period is from the first week ending with a Sunday, through the last week ending with a Saturday.  Yearly spins are pulled and calculated from December through the next November.

The annual new release year begins in November, although there are some released in October that make the cut. I track all titles for a full calendar year from the official date of release of the first single.

Titles are linked to its respective YouTube page. Don’t forget to visit Chris K’s Colorado Playlist Channel for the largest collection of Colorado music, going back over a decade.

Your donation will VERY HONESTLY HELP to keep this going. Please. Donate below or via Venmo at chrisk-2.

Spin data pulled from the Colorado Playlist, 105.5 The Colorado Sound, Indie 102.3, 88.9 KRFC  and ten other stations that use playlist generator Spinitron, offering search functions for artists to track airplay at over 300 stations and programs around the country.
