March Ecast BarPulse Proves That Variety Is the Spice of Life When it Comes to Music in Bars and Nightclubs

NEW YORK, April 15 /PRNewswire/ -- The Ecast BarPulse(TM) for March shows that diversity and popularity are the hallmark of the most played songs on the Ecast network.

The BarPulse chart, which tracks top plays of new music added to the network each month, reads like a "who's who" of popular artists. Early singles off forthcoming albums by platinum selling artists Madonna and Disturbed placed alongside established favorites such as Flo Rida's "Low," which has experienced consistently strong play since its addition to the Ecast network in December and now continues to drive plays for the recently released album "Mail on Sunday."
