THE CHEAT SHEETFOR ARTISTSCATALOGS

Nonprofit organization

We are a 501(c)(3) nonprofit created to help you find the songs meant for your ears

An artist's popular songs are not necessarily their best songs. Who knows each artist's catalog better than their own fans?

How It Works

Through wisdom of the crowds, we rank-order each artist's catalog identifying deep cuts, and best of all, surfacing the hidden jams.

Why Today’s musicRankings Don’t Work
Great songs get buried by the algorithm Streaming data favors hype, not the songs fans keep coming back to.
New listeners miss what truly hits Most people try the top song first, but it rarely shows the artist at their best.
Artists can’t see what really lands Without real fan input, artists guess which songs actually resonate most.
Crowdsourcing songs truly meant for your ears Rather than relying on the commercial popularity or the latest releases, we put the power in the hands of the fans.

Every fan can rank their favorite songs, and through the wisdom of the crowd, we’re able to curate a given artist’s fan favorite song rankings from top to bottom. Fan-ranked R.E.M. song list with hidden jams and deep cuts highlighted
Voted by real fans Every ranking is based on listener submissions, not stream counts
Hidden jams rise to the top Even low-play songs can rank high if fans believe they’re worth hearing.
Honest, per-artist rankings Each artist gets their own song list. No cross-genre or leaderboard bias.

We used The Hidden Jams to drive fan engagement in advance of our 40th anniversary shows this spring. It was amazing, fans loved it, and we even modified our set lists based on their responses.
