#COMUSIC TOP 30 JUNE 2024

Every week I survey more than a dozen Colorado community/public and college stations, including Colorado Playlist spins on respective stations. The weekly survey period runs from midnight Sunday through the following Saturday. 

The monthly survey period runs from the first week ending with a Saturday through the last week ending with a Saturday.  Titles are linked to its respective YouTube page.

Titles are tracked from the date of release of the first single from an LP/EP, for twelve months. Example: DOR = DEC 2022. I stopped tracking it in NOV 2023 (twelve months).

KAFM, KBUT, KCSU, KDNK, KDUR, KFFR, KOTO, KSJD, KSUT, KRFC, KRZA and KVNF are surveyed via Spinitron, offering search functions for artists to track airplay on over three hundred stations and programs around the country.

LP = album (5 or more songs)
EP = extended play (3-5 songs)
SP = single play (1-2 songs)
(*) = No longer lives in Colorado, but counted as long as they got their career started here or there is some other reason to include them. 
(**) = serviced to media in Colorado by Rocky Mountain Music Network, LLC
