New Music United Top 20 Chart (October 7, 2011)

Here are the 20 most popular tracks on New Music United this week with notes:

1. It is very heartwarming for me to see my dear old friends from D-A-D storm to the number one chart. We grew up together in Copenhagen. Oh, and the track is really good!
2. The NMU charts is a very good promotion window for Danish artists, indeed. D-A-D drummer Laust Sonne and Anders Trentemøller collaborator Mikael Simpson are the two strongest chart performers in the history of NMU.
3. Choir Of Young Believers are another Danish act entering the chart at number 2 with a track now becoming famous as the theme for a new Scandinavian TV series.
4. Tracks 11, 13, 14, 15 and 19 are really brilliant rediscovered tracks.
5. Tracks 3, 4, 10, 12, 18 and 20 are all former NMU numbers ones.
6. S.C.U.M. is an “NMU darling” artist.
