Stereolab Climbs Past Rivals to Score First NACC 200 #1
The mighty three-way see-saw battle for #1 between Japanese Breakfast, Tunde Adebimpe, and Bon Iver may have continued this week were it not for a fresh new competitor that came on the scene last week. Between the three of them, Adebimpe edged back in front of Japanese Breakfast by two points this week. But it was for naught as last week’s most-added and highest-debuting album from London’s Stereolab soars past them all, rising 8-1, to give them their first NACC 200 chart-topper. The band’s first release in 15 years, Instant Holograms On Metal Film (Warp/Duophonic), ties the record for the fastest climb ever to #1 (2 weeks) and enjoys the second-biggest climb to #1 this year. They also leap 13-1 to top NACC NEXT and move within one spot of the top at NACC Non-Comm, up 10-2. After weeks of nail-bitingly close #1 battles, they open up the widest lead any NACC 200 chart-topper has had dating back to our April 15 chart.

The NACC Community’s Top 10 Favorite Records of 2024
Radio music directors, DJs, promoters, publicists, artists, labels and more share their personal Top 10 favorite records released in 2024.
MD of the Month | Alex Lubeck, SiriusXM The Loft
“In 2019 SiriusXM opened up its new Los Angeles studios and I jumped on the opportunity to move to LA from DC. Once in LA, I became the assigned Assistant Music Programmer for SiriusXMU and The Loft – two of my favorite channels on the platform – and in that position I was mentored in programming strategy and philosophy by Chris Muckley, a radio legend in his own right. After a few years of mentorship and Assistant Programming I became a Program Director and took over programming The Loft.”
MD of the Month | Kelli Lynch, WRRG Triton College Radio
“WRRG is celebrating its 50th Anniversary on the air this month. Our DJs will be playing music across the decades. We have a celebratory event on our actual anniversary, 4/28. The President of the college will speak, along with myself and 3 WRRG DJs who went on to have careers in radio. We will also unveil our new logo and give tours of the station.”
