The Dance/Electronic Songs chart has been published weekly by Billboard since January 2013.[1] It is their first chart to be published that ranks the most popular dance and electronic songs according to audience impressions, digital downloads, streaming and club play and it was introduced following an increase in the genre's popularity in the United States.[1]

The first number-one song on the Dance/Electronic Songs chart for the issue dated January 26, 2013, was "Scream & Shout" by will.i.am and Britney Spears.[1]

The chart's current number one as of the issue dated March 23, 2024, is "Yes, And?" by Ariana Grande.[2]

Background and eligibility criteria

As a result of the increase in the popularity of dance and electronic music, Billboard introduced the Dance/Electronic Songs chart in January 2013 to rank the most popular dance and electronic song according to airplay audience impressions, digital downloads, streaming and club play and publishes it on a weekly basis.[1] They are tracked by Nielsen SoundScan, Nielsen BDS, BDS from streaming services including Spotify and Xbox Music, and from a United States-wide select panel of 140 DJs; it uses the same methodology as is used for the all-genre Billboard Hot 100.[1] It is separate to the Dance Club Songs and Dance/Electronic Digital Songs charts, the former of which is ranked by most popular club play and the latter by the most sales.[3][4] Songs will be eligible to chart on the Dance/Electronic Songs chart based on their "core sound and tempo," however dance remixes of songs which were originally pop, R&B, rap or a different genre are not eligible for inclusion, regardless of whether it appears on either the Dance Club Songs or Dance/Mix Show Airplay charts.[1]
