It's not based on the artist's locations, but where the listeners for the artists are.
One of the top artists you're listening to prob has a lot of listeners in Estonia
My wife got Oslo, Norway and her top artists were Spanish music and the most poppiest of American pop music. Is cumbia a popular genre in Norway?
Oh ok. Either way, I don't think any of my top artists has a lot of fans there. lol. But if spotify says so, then so be it.
Edit: I use that account to test music from artists that I manage the distribution for. So I can literally see the demographics of listeners from the distribution platform and Estonia is not even in the top 20 of countries where listeners come from.
