Ahead of tomorrow's annual Hottest 100 countdown, triple j have released a bunch of stats to show that they're having the biggest year on record.
The youth broadcaster's listeners set a record for the most votes cast ever, with 2,255,110 votes made for this year's countdown. That's 7.6% up from the 2015 countdown.
Of the 100 songs, 66 Aussie songs made the list — the countdown's highest number of Aussies — though there were also songs from 12 other countries.
26 artists were first discovered on triple j Unearthed, while 23 artists are making their debut on the countdown this year.
Yesterday, triple j's Ollie Wards confirmed to News Corp that the station is still in ongoing consultation about moving the Hottest 100 countdown from January 26.
Tune into the 2016 Hottest 100 countdown from midday AEDT tomorrow.
