Wud Records: Most Played Tracks of 2025

Most Played Tracks of 2025

We thought it might be fun to make playlists of the most played tracks of 2025, one for each platform – or group of platforms – where our music is represented. We felt that such playlists would enable fans of our bands to hear what’s been hot and to have the opportunity to enjoy listening to some of our most popular tracks of recent times.

SoundCloud

Wud Records enjoyed an outstanding year on SoundCloud, the best ever with over 54,000 streams. This was more than double the 21,000 streams of our previous best year, 2017. We gained many new followers overall, and lost some old ones whose accounts were no longer maintained, ending the year with just under 4000 followers. It is very pleasing that more new fans across the world are discovering and enjoying the great music made by our amazing artists.

Making a SoundCloud playlist of the tracks that were popular there is easily done. To listen to the 20 Most Played Tracks of 2025 playlist at the SoundCloud website, simply click here to open that page in a new tab.

The 20 Most Played Tracks of 2025 was completely dominated by the Band of Georges. The level of dominance was so strong that nineteen of the top twenty tracks came from the Band of Georges, with just one of Pok’s songs making it into the list. All twenty of the most played songs on SoundCloud were released in 2025.

We shall be releasing a small number of further compilations from the Band of Georges in due course, but there are no more songs to release as far as we can tell. Make sure you are following our News service, Bandcamp Community, BlueSky and X (formerly Twitter) to be sure of knowing when these things happen.

There will be further songs from Pok‘s Anthology album coming to SoundCloud over the coming year. More new songs will be completed and some of the old ones will receive their sonic upgrade, now that our engineers can accurately hear how they sound in our studios. It really helps, does that.

It is worth noting that these are only the most streamed tracks, rather than the most popular. The total amounts of likes, reposts and comments have been ignored. Taking these other factors into consideration would inevitably yield different results.

Bandcamp

Bandcamp is the platform with the best ethos in the business. If you are not a member yet, it’s time to join.

One of the great features of Bandcamp is its Communities. You can join ours by clicking here. ;-)

It’s been a reasonable year for Wud Records on Bandcamp. Overall in 2025, both our streams and sales were down very slightly compared to 2024. Exactly like last year, the best-selling album was Flicker‘s At Least 1000 Words, and the best selling song was Dark Company‘s Medicines, from the band’s Rage in Heaven album.

The 2025 chart of most streamed tracks on Bandcamp sees a good spread of different artists, with no particular act claiming domination for the year’s Bandcamp streams.

The Bastard Sons of Dennis had the most streamed song and two others in the top twenty. There were four songs for Dark Company, two for Laughing Sun, seven for Flicker, three for Pok, and one for Alchemeon.

We have also created a playlist at SoundCloud of the twenty most streamed tracks at Bandcamp in 2025 for your listening pleasure. It’s much easier to do that at SoundCloud than at Bandcamp. There are a number of tracks from Flicker‘s HappySad album that are not present at SoundCloud, and perhaps someday they may appear at that platform.
