So there we were, heads down, doing our thing when somebody noticed that our track counter had hit the 125,000 mark, and this, just over a year after we'd hit the 100,000 mark!
From it's humble beginings back in December of 2000, CBC Radio 3 (the artist section was then known as New Music Canada) took nearly 10 years to reach hundred thousand tracks uploaded, and now just over one year later, to increase by that number by 25%.
So who amongst the 26,990 artist was the one to upload the 125,000 track? Meet Toronto's Indoor Voices, aka Jonathan Relph with the song, "Nevers (Loud)"
And what exactly does 125,000 songs look like? Music programmer Steve Venegas broke it down for us in such a way that left CBC3's designer, Ben Didier, no choice but to whip up THIS INFOGRAPHIC to depict how people might otherwise use the more than 500,000 minutes of listening time.
