The Official Chart is coming to a jukebox near you!

The Official Chart is coming to jukeboxes nationwide, and it's never looked (or sounded) better.

Official Charts have struck a ground-breaking deal with leading jukebox operator NSM Music, which will see the Official Singles Chart, as heard on BBC Radio 1, landing on thousands of jukeboxes across the country, with the roll-out starting this month.

Every Friday, the week's chart will go live across the specially-commissioned jukeboxes, showcasing brand-new photos and video messages from the newly-crowned Number 1 artists, along with an Official Top 10 video countdown and browsable Top 40 of the UK's biggest trending tracks to select from.

The very first one has been installed at Official Charts HQ and we can confirm there's been plenty of oohs and ahs so far...and the odd dispute. What's wrong with Chappell Roan on a loop? (Answer: absolutely nothing)

Martin Talbot, chief executive at Official Charts says, "We are absolutely delighted to be forging this new partnership with NSM. As a company, they have an historic legacy as suppliers of jukeboxes for the past seven decades, but they have also been among the leaders in evolving into the digital space in recent years. 

"We have been incredibly impressed by [NSM's] plans for the future, and are delighted that we will be on that journey with them. A pub isn’t a pub without music, and The Official Chart is the soundtrack to our times here in Britain. We are thrilled to be partnering with NSM to ensure that the Official Singles Chart is a central part of the in-pub experience across the UK."

NSM Music’s General Manager, Martin Agabeg comments, “We are extremely excited about our new partnership with the Official Charts Company, this collaboration of two prestigious brands is a natural fit and it shows our continued commitment and investment to offering the best possible service to our valued customers”.

NSM Music’s Sales Manager, Alex Kirby adds, “It is a real honour to be in partnership with such an iconic British institution, everybody knows the Official Charts Company, and back in the day “Top of The Pops”. We are extremely excited that every NSM jukebox manufactured on the Windows 10 platform will automatically get the Official Charts Top 40 as part of their standard music subscription.

"It is extremely important to us that we not only manufacturer the best possible product for the marketplace but will also create the very best customer experience.” 

So there you have it, the Official Charts is coming to a pub near you very soon.
