Every year, I take a deep dive into the most-played tracks recorded by my DJ software, Rekordbox. It’s worth noting that this list reflects the all-time most played songs since I began using the software, not just the hits of 2024. Unfortunately, the exact start date of my data tracking has been lost over time, making this list a bit imperfect. However, it still provides valuable insight into musical trends and offers a fun glimpse into the enduring favourites that keep the dancefloors alive! Key
