The cumulative table provides a aggregated view of an artist's song plays, helping you produce qualitative reports. It is a condensed version of the live feed, meaning that if a track is played 4 times on a radio station, it will appear 4 times in the live feed but only once in the cumulative table.

Here is how to read the Cumulative table you can find in the airplay section of an artist profile:

  • The Song column corresponds to the track that has received plays.

  • The Station column is the radio station that played that track.

  • The 7D column shows the number of plays that the track had on that station over the last seven days.

  • The (7D)-1 column indicates the number of plays that track had on that station over the previous seven days before that.

  • The 28D column shows the number of plays that track had on that station during the last 28 days.

  • The 1Y column indicates the number of plays that track had on that station over the previous year.

  • The Country column is the country that the station comes from.

  • The Date/hour column corresponds to the last time the station played that track. Hours are on the time zones the stations are on.

  • The Time zone column corresponds to the station's time zone.

Let's take the first row of the table above as an example: "Birds of a Feather" was played on Prambors FM (Indonesia) 269 times in the last 7 days, showing an increase of 81 plays from the previous week's 188 plays. Over the last 28 days, it was played 524 times, and for the entire year, it has been played 525 times. The most recent play on this station was today at 8:57 AM (UTC).

You can click on any entry from that table to access the right panel to go the extra mile. This panel offers complementary information on that play, such as release date, record label, past plays on that radio station, etc.

🏆 Champion Tips 🏆

  • You can select a country on this page by clicking on the scrolling menu on the top right of the table. This way, you'll be able to see results only from the country you chose.

  • Click on the box that says Show plays under 30 seconds to ensure you keep track of every single play and get the neighboring rights you should receive.

  • Export the columns into a CSV file to incorporate them into your documents (what you choose to see on your dashboard is what you get in your CSV file).

  • Sort by country, date, or number of plays by clicking the arrows🔻at the top of the table, or search for a specific song or station by clicking the magnifying glass 🔍
