MCCh is based on reviews from critics worldwide. We consider all world music sites that meet these conditions:
- Qualified albums (with numbers, letters, drawings, whatever)
- They publish over 400 reviews per year
- This information is accessible online
Beware of imitations
The weighted average is based on a formula that includes a) the average of ratings and b) the number of sources that have rated the album.
For now, we consult these websites
The magazines I used for the ratings were:
EUR + Australia: Gaffa-dk; Gaffa-sw; Humo; Indiestyle; Jenesaispop; Laut; Mondosonoro; Musikexpress; Nojesguiden; Ondarock; Plattentests; Sentire Ascoltare; The Music

Re: Mega Critic Chart 2019
I know it may seem like a formality when we are in 2020, but is this is still happening? I would still like to know were the December releases end up, however few they may be.

Re: Mega Critic Chart 2019
With a risk of being obnoxious, I would like to repeat the question whether we could get the final list of 2019 yet? There were some releases with interest and I'd like to finish the playlist.
