The plan was to go into this with an open mind, disposing of any assumptions I had beforehand. I knew my findings would be helpful to EDMProd readers and anyone else who happened to stumble across the post. I have a fair idea of what’s popular, but a refresher is helpful.

Any producer, regardless of skill level, is going to pick up a thing or two by analyzing 100 tracks. I decided to do this for a few main reasons: Surely there’s not that much to gain from spending money and time listening to a bunch of popular tracks? You might be wondering why on earth I did this.

It’s certainly not difficult to drag a single track into your DAW, listen to it, and mark out its structure, but doing it 100 times? It gets to you.Īfter I’d gathered all the important data, I went into my crudely made spreadsheet and started drawing links between the data and made it more “consumable” or interesting (averages, percentages, etc.) Why I did it The most time-consuming part of this was analyzsing the structure.

I started with the basics (genre, duration, length, etc.) and moved toward the more unique points of interest such as structure and whether the tracks contained an obvious sample from elsewhere. While the tracks were downloading, I sketched up a basic spreadsheet in Google Sheets to collect all my data.Īfter all the tracks had been imported into Ableton Live, I began to enter data into the spreadsheet. Unfortunately, Beatport doesn’t have a “Purchase Top 100” button, so I had to add them all to my cart manually.
