A bit of #throwbackthursday audio for you from the Red Dragon FM days.
A load of Artist Jingles featuring artist vocals and instrumentals of their songs - used to help brand the radio station around 1999-2000.
Featured vocalists include Craig David, Jamelia, The Dum Dums,and load of others whose songs have faded into the memory...
Visualisation at the expense of quality control?
I just listened to the normally excellent Sounds of the 80s on BBC Radio 2 whilst in the car. And I’m not quite sure what I heard. It sounded like the normally chatty Sara Cox was doing a TV show to camera rather than a radio show.
An hour of the show was “simulcast” on the BBC Red Button.
I particularly enjoyed the unprocessed roughly mixed TV sound – on the radio.
And the instructions to…

What's your battle plan?
What’s your battle plan?
Yesterday, the sad news that another music legend had passed away.
This was, unfortunately, nothing new. There have been a raft of these events over the past few months.
On radio, it’s time like these where the ability to react fast and deviate a bit from a format is a real luxury. Not many formats want to do it. Some would never do it. Luckily, most of the brands I work with can.
Whilst we have…

Using content to create a TV spot
Using content to create a TV spot
A clever example of using existing content re-purposed to create a TV ad.
The ad, commissioned by ARN, the Australian Radio Network, features audio from previous interviews by Kyle and Jackie-O. Lip synced to the audio and shot in a stylish “studio” set, but keeping the content at the heart of the message.
This is an ad that shows…

What would you include if that next job asked you for a current showreel? Your latest ID? The latest weekend promo? Or something to show the range of what you’ve done and what you can do?
The longer you’ve been doing this job, the harder it is to choose what to include. Do you include the beatmatched promo that at the time took you a day to lovingly craft? Or that clever promo featuring that…

Why do we keep using these sounds?
Inspired by a question recently from @timoncheese.. Why do we keep using these sounds?
Image:Charles Knowles on FLICKR
Today, Tim Johns, a reporter at BBC Radio 2, raised a question in his (excellent) audio summary of the Next Radio conference.
Why does radio (and TV) continue to use this sound?
You know it.
If you are a radio producer, I pretty much guarantee you’ve used it at least once in your career.
But why?
How…

Never Stop Learning
Today, I’m suffering a bit from FOMO
It’s the Next Radio conference in London – a gathering of radio people, eager to learn new things, share new ideas and generally talk about the medium they love. I’m not too worried – I’ve been following the highlights online at Radio Today Live – and if this year is like other years, the vast archive of content will eventually make itself available online. Bu…

Sell with Emotion
Sell with emotion
Paul Smith is my ultimate boss, owner of Celador.
He once sold an idea for a TV show – that was initially rejected by all the major UK TV networks – and eventually went on to be a worldwide TV success.
This article from CAMPAIGN shows how he sold it – by using emotion and experience rather than sales talk

Possibly the oddest promo I've ever made. #breakingtherules
Mungo Jerry had a hit in 1970.
In 2014 Ray Dorset from Mungo Jerry is switching on the Christmas lights in his home town of Westbourne.
Here's the promo

All songs sound the same, right?
Image – Eflon on Flickr (CC)
I just came across this on Buzzfeed. It’s by the Australian comedy band, Axis of Awesome. And maybe it might lead to a music promo idea for someone.
Now, whilst it’s true that all these songs follow the same chord pattern in some way, it’s probably just that chord pattern has a nice progression and is…

A conference for people like me
A conference for people like me
There’s a lot of radio. And there are lots of radio conferences. But it’s rare for 2 to come along on the same week.
If you work in radio as a producer, programmer, presenter, marketeer, or in fact anywhere in a radio station – then you should definitely check out NEXTradio. It’s a one day conference in London with loads of short, sharp presentations – and you will learn loads. I’ve been twice,…
