Notes about this week's new entries:
6. I’m a cliché – Anouk
Dutch rock singer Anouk debuted in the mid-1990s with her album Together alone, which remains one of the best selling Dutch debut albums of all time. More than 15 years on, she’s still the Netherlands’ premier rock act. On her latest single, Anouk calls herself a cliché – how many rock stars would gladly admit that…?

7. F*cking vet – Britt
Yes, it’s that time of year again – the summer novelty hits. Every year has its own Holiday Rap, Paloma Blanca, Agadou or Barbie Girl and this year’s no different. One song that’s shooting up the European charts is Loca People by Spanish DJ Sak Noel, about a girl who’s on holiday in Spain and only sees crazy people in the resort discos. Meanwhile, the Dutch hit of the season so far is F*cking vet (f*cking cool), which is a Dutch "translation" of Loca People. 17-Year old Britt Dekker, who performs the song, recently won a Dutch TV reality show which was set in the Suriname jungle. (Warning: coarse language throughout the song!)

10. Koko – Sander van Doorn
Dutch DJ Sander van Doorn has been voted among the top world DJs by influential UK magazine DJMag for several years in a row. He’s DJing all over the world (this month alone he can be seen in the Netherlands, Ukraine, Russia, Belgium, Greece, Germany and Ibiza) and it looks like his tunes will dominate this summer’s dance festivals. Koko is a hit thanks to an advertising campaign by Dutch Radio 538 called "Ticket to Ibiza".
