Hey!

After five years… we are going to shut down the chart. Indy will be pursuing an art career (www.jdmg.co) so more time will be needed to promote that. The Spotify playlist will likely continue but won’t be promoted.

It’s been fun!

And… if you’ve been a regular viewer of our page, especially the Ecuadorian who has been dropping in every two weeks for the past few years, send us a note at
