Top 50 Hot Local Music Chart

The most accurate charts on the planet we use a proprietary algorithm to rank bands based on how often the top music blogs post about them as well as other factors including social media plays and web searches. Geo targeted for your region.

Unlike other charts, The Deli's charts are open to all bands (not only our subscribers) and are based on a system that gathers popularity and "web buzz" data from a selection of other sites, not just our own. This makes our charts as objective as web charts can get. Also, as far as we know, there isn't a way to cheat them or drastically influence them.
As you can see, there are currently 2 different charts that can be picked from a small scroll down menu: the "Popularity" chart is based on the current popularity of each artists. By current popularity we mean that if we can say that Radiohead are generally speaking more popular than Grizzly Bear, the latter could be more popular than the first - for example - just after they release an album or licensing a song for - say - an iPod commercial. The Web Buzz charts are also based on the popularity charts but give an extra push to the artists that are blogged about in the main music blogs.
