Updated over 7 months ago

Family in Music's distribution portal provides a complete set of tools to help analyze and understand streaming and download data. Find out which songs or albums are most popular, where listeners are based and which services they prefer to access music.

The distribution portal's analytics includes the following sections:



Daily trends

Daily trends is a dynamic, comprehensive graph that allows you to view a wide amount of information about your assets across all connected services. View download and streaming quantities at the label, artist, or track level; compare them across channels and services, and find out which countries your fans are listening from. You can separate differences between streaming or downloads.

The default modules shown are:

  • Total streams/downloads

  • Top Tracks

  • Top Releases

  • Top Artists

  • Top Labels

  • Top Services

  • Top Countries

  • Top Formats

  • Top Channels

  • Top Markets

From the main Analytics dashboard, click on any module to expand the details and view all the available information on the Daily Trends graph.

The current time period being displayed can be adjusted from the drop-down menu above the graph. From the drop-down menu, you may select:

  • Last 7 days: Displays information for the previous 7 complete days.

  • Last 14 days: Displays information for the previous 14 complete days.

  • Last 30 days: Displays information for the previous 30 complete days.

  • Custom Range: Using the calendar widget, choose a start from the left side and an end date from the right side. Click Apply to confirm your choice and view the graph using your selected dates.

Additionally, you may further narrow the view by dragging the left or right edges of the graph summary, immediately below the main graph. The remaining highlighted area may be moved left or right, and the graph above will reflect the selected area.

You can view daily trends sorted by any of the available tabs above the graph by simply clicking on them:

  • Labels

  • Artists

  • Releases

  • Tracks

  • Formats

  • Channels

  • Services

  • Countries

For each tab selected, streams or downloads will be graphed accordingly within the selected date range. Below the graph is a table detailing all available elements within the current graph view. To include or remove an item from the graph, check or uncheck the box to the left of the item in the table. Only the most popular items will be included initially.

The graph compares activity between any item selected from the table below it. Each item is identified on the graph by the same colour as the check mark beside it. On the right side of the daily trends graph, select from one of three graph types:

Line: Data points will be plotted on a continuous line.

Stacked area: Data points will be plotted on a continuous line and a matching solid colour will be filled in below each line.

Clustered columns: Data points are displayed as columns, with the total height of the column representing the cumulative value of all items for that point in time.

Revenue Analytics

Compare your monthly revenue over time through dynamic and comprehensive modules. Like Daily Trends, view a wide amount of information about your assets across all connected services. View download and streaming numbers organized by label, artist, or track. Compare sales across channels, services, or by region at the country level.

Geo

View a map of the world that displays where your listeners are. Compare sales across regions and see which artists, albums, or songs are most popular in any country.
