Olivia Dean marks another milestone this week, passing a 25th at the head of the Top 40 Albums Chart with her seminal LP The Art Of Loving. Country sensation Ella Langley remains at #1 on the Singles Top 40 for a 17th week with ‘Choosin' Texas’ – which also goes triple platinum.

Canterbury-based folk star Mel Parsons leads the Aotearoa Albums Chart for a third week with Castle Hill, closing out another round of impeccable live shows, while local garage punk legends CINDY enter the Chart at #5 with The Way I Do. Over on the Aotearoa Singles Chart, Hori Shaw and Te Wehi have been #1 for all but five weeks in 2026 with ‘Ready To Ride’ – one of the most impressive reigns the Chart has seen.

Slovak singer-songwriter ADÉLA claims her debut Hot 40 #1 with ‘Nicole Kidman’. The track features on her new album PRIMA, which lands at #7 on the Top 40 this week. Perth-based four-piece Coterie return, claiming their 10th Aotearoa Hot Chart #1 with ‘All Day’.

Te Matatini and Te Kuru Marutea continue at the tihi of the Tukutahi Tiketike 10 Te Reo Māori with ‘Kei Wareware i a Tātou’ this wiki.
