Here it is, the list of FBi’s most played tracks of 2014: the year we launched a whole new station dedicated to dance and electronic music, FBi Click. The year we took our Music Open Day all around Australia; and for the first time were able to send a full band (The Walking Who) and an interstate solo artist (LUCIANBLOMKAMP) all the way to Iceland for our Northern Lights competition.

It’s been a massive 12 months and we couldn’t be more proud of this collection of tunes. We promise to play 50% Australian music, with half of that from Sydney. This list is testament to the huge amount of talent in our local scene: with a massive 70% of our most played tracks being homegrown.

What a soundtrack, what a year. You can skip through (most of) the top 50 in the playlist below and check out the full list – Australian artists in green!
