First Quarter Music Sales:Germany Up, France Down

by E. Legrand & R. Lyng

It's a tale of two countries.Spurred partly by a vibrant econ-omy and the knock -on effect ofunification, Germany soundcarri-er shipments increased 19.4% to52.8 million units during the firstquarter of 1991. Meanwhile,France music shipments dipped6.8% to 29.3 million units duringthe same period.

According to IFPI/Germany.it looks as if the country's labelsare heading for yet another recordyear.

CD trade deliveries-whichcomprised some 39% (20.7 mil-lion units) of total shipments toretailers-once again led the way,increasing by 42.5%. IFPI statis-tics also indicate that the trendtowards classical music is holdinga steady course, especially onCDs. Increasing by 36.5%, classi-cal CD trade deliveries wereenough to compensate for a 29%loss in the vinyl LP sector.

Cassette shipments also con-tributed significantly to the firstquarter's positive results. Whileincreasing only 3.4% in the clas-sical sector, pop cassette deliver-ies rose by 35.4%.

The downward trend in vinylhas continued at the almostalarming rate of 17.4%. As

Mars Rocks Steady InSoviet TV Sponsorship

by Hugh Fielder

Mars International is sponsoringthe first UK rock TV series to bescreened in the USSR. TheRussian Television And RadioCompany (RTRC) has acquired 10shows produced by Rock SteadyVentures, specially edited from thecurrent "Rock At The Dome" pro-gramme running on Channel 4 andits predecessor "Rock Steady".

The series will run fortnightlyover five months and feature liveperformances from Sting, Alexan-der O'Neil, Mark Knopfler andthe Notting Hillbillies, TheNeville Brothers, David Byrne,Richard Thompson and JulianCope, as well as film features.RTRC head of music program-ming Art Troitsky estimates theaudience could be anywhere from30-45 million, with a potentialreach of 100 million.

Mars has not revealed the cost ofthe sponsorship deal but it coversthe expenses of reformatting anddistributing the show for Sovietbroadcast. The company's logo isdisplayed in the title sequence anda commercial will run before, du-ring and after the programme.

The deal was put together in

three weeks by European mediasponsorship agency InvizibleArts. Says MD Tim Smith, "Mars[candy bars] have been available inSoviet Union for the last 10

months. There have been problemsin distribution but these have beenovercome and the company is nowin a position to market the productacross the USSR. "Rock Steady"provides a suitably dynamic vehi-cle for a world -leading brandwhilst providing strong qualitativeassociation for the client."

Andy Hudson, director of RockSteady Ventures, adds, "Everyonewins a balloon with this deal. Wehave a programme we went to sellworldwide, the Russians want theshow but they don't have the cur-rency to buy it. Mars provides thebacking and gets the marketing ex-posure it is looking for. It's a per-fect example of how sponsorshipcan work for us all."

The RTRC was set up last yearin the Russian Republic and startedbroadcasting on May 12 onGostelradio's Soviet ChannelTwo. Troistky, a leading rock criticand writer in the USSR, says hepicked "Rock Steady" because ofthe show's live format. "It's some-thing that's been totally eliminated

Dr. Alban SingleChosen For WorldEnvironment DayDr. Alban has joined the growinglist of artists participating in envi-ronmental causes. The 34 -year -oldformer dentist was chosen by theSwedish United Nations Associa-tion to compose and perform thecommemorative song for WorldEnvironment Day held in Stock-holm on June 5.

The song, Shing Shi Wowowo(Stop The Pollution) was also re-leased that day by SwemixRecords. A UN conference will de-cide whether the song will be usedin the greater context of the UNEnvironmental Conference to beheld in Brazil later this year.

Comments Rene Hedemyr ofSwemix, "Both Alban and we were

positively surprised that they chosehim to do the song." Adds JonasHoist, head of promotion at distri-butor Sonet Grammofon, "TheUnited Nations wanted an artistwho can reach youth, who can per-form in English, and is internationaland ethnic. Dr. Alban fitted all this.The same team have worked on thesong as earlier. Dr. Alban has writ-ten the lyrics and his producer Den-niz PoP the music. Advance orderson the single look very healthy."

A video will be made when Dr.Alban returns from his Europeantour.

The event was attended by theKing of Sweden and the presidentof Brazil. SW

Satellite Media ServicesSeeks Euro ExpansionSatellite Media Services (SMS).the UK satellite distribution ser-vice, is looking for partners in

order to expand its operations intoother European territories.

CEO John Ross -Barnard says,"This is very much a means to anend and the end is different inevery territory. We want to worktowards setting up a system, thatexploits SMS' UK success andknowledge for each country."

SMS is now the main method ofdistributing radio commercials tothe ILR network, as well as syndi-cated programmes and theIndependent Radio News ser-vice. Using its own dedicatedtransponder on Intelsat V, SMS isable to transmit, several stereo andmono audio channels simultane-ously, as well as other data. Thesatellite "footprint" covers the UK,Ireland and most of Europe. PE

from Soviet TV in recent years."The range of styles that it co-

vers, from soul to hard rock andindie music, is important to us be-cause the only Western music beingscreened in the Soviet Union at themoment is chart hits and videos. Ibelieve this show could become a

cultural sensation. There isn't any-thing else apart from MTV."

Troitsky is looking for sponsor-ship for another UK -producedshow, "Snub TV", and he has alsobeen talking with the producers ofthe French programme, "Mega -mix". He says he's disappointedwith the standard of US rockshows, adding that the only one thatinterests him at present is the

"Lonesome Pine" new countryshow.

MAMA SAID WHAT?-Lenny Kravitz takes time out from rehearsingfor his European tour to visit MTV, where he was a guest VJ Of The Weekon May 6. He's pictured here with MTV news presenter Sonya Saul.

BBC Radio 1 Takes JobCampaign To ContinentBBC Radio l's "Action Special"on unemployment, now in its12th year, will form the model fora pan-European jobs campaignnext year. National broadcastersfrom the UK, Germany, France,Belgium, Norway, Sweden andHungary are co-ordinating thejoint effort to provide details ofjob opportunities, training andeducation across Europe. Othercountries are expected to join theproject. Says Radio 1 controllerJohnny Beerling, "Action Spe-cial 1992 will mean that anyone.

wherever they live in Europe, willbe able to pick up a phone and beplugged into the new Europe."

The UK Employment Depart-ment helpline took 8.000 callsduring the first two days of Radiol's latest Action Special at theend of May.

The department's head ofbroadcasting Tom Peel says,"There has been an enormousnumber of calls about living andworking abroad. This is clearly aserious consideration for manypeople after 1992." HF

Red Dragon Chairman QuitsRed Dragon Radio/South Waleschairman Theodore Shepherdhas resigned over complaints thatlocal directors are not involved inthe running of the station. RedDragon is 80% owned by TransWorld Communications.

Four other non -executivedirectors have also resigned,including Norman Follis, whowas one of the original stationdirectors. There is currently onlyone local representative left on theboard.

The resignations follow thesacking earlier this year of manag-ing director Neil Jones (M&MApril 27), who had been involvedin an attempted station manage-ment buy-out.

Shepherd says, "Local direc-tors must be involved in day-to-day conditions at the station. Butdecisions were taken over ourheads. I didn't even know that NeilJones had gone until after the

event. That was a major item ofdisagreement. I also tried to obtaininformation from Trans World forthe benefit of local shareholders,but I was unable to do so. r havetherefore decided to resign."

Shepherd says that the sharesof the directors who resignedremain "locked in" to the station.He adds, "Either Trans World willcontinue to get into deeper trouble,or they will have to buy out thelocal directors' shares."

Red Dragon was reportedly upfor sale last autumn, but is nowbelieved to be off the market.Trans World warned in Januarythat profits for 1990 would belower than expected after an inter-im loss of £600.000 (app.US$1.025 million). The companyis planning a rights issue to reduceits £11 million debt.

Goddard, Kiss FM SplitOver Programming Row

by Hugh Fielder

Kiss FM head of programmesGrant Goddard has been sackedover changes to the Londondance station's format. MD Gor-don McNamee is taking overGoddard's role as the battle forLondon's radio audience heats up.

Station chairman KeithMcDowell says the adjustmentsto the programming are minorand were agreed to by the rest ofthe management team. "We haveto reflect the fast-moving dancescene, and the depressed commer-cial scene means we have to cutour cloth accordingly," he says."That means a team effort andeveryone has to give a bit. Grantwasn't prepared to do that and,reluctantly, we've had to partcompany."

Goddard, part of the originalpirate outfit that successfullyapplied for a license and startedbroadcasting legally last Septem-ber, maintains he was dismissedwithout warning. He also claimshis programming policy helpedKiss gain a million listeners with-

in six months-six months aheadof schedule.

The former head of pro-grammes talks of "blind panic" inthe wake of poor advertising andsponsorship revenue. "I wasasked how the station couldincrease its total hours in theshort term and with no extramoney," he says. "The recom-mendations I came upwith-more dance hits, reducingthe size of the playlist, extendingthe playlist across the weekenddaytime shows, and controllingthe number of oldies and recur-rents-were approved by theother departments and acceptedby the board. But McNamee toldme I wasn't the person to carrythem out."

McDowell acknowledges ad-vertising was "disastrous" at thebeginning of the year due to thestate of the economy and the GulfWar. The station's chairman, how-ever, claims revenue has pickedup since. "In April local salesexceeded national, and Mayshould be a good month. Wedidn't envisage a profit in the first

year but equally, we need to keepwithin the targets we set, whichmeans making adjustments allround, not just on progr, amming "

He denies rumours of pressurefrom the station's main partnersVirgin Records and EMAP. "Ourfinancial backers are all happy.Our heads are above water andwe've explained our strategy forthe next 12 months to them." Hedescribes last week's annual gen-eral meeting as "harmonious,"saying McNamee is taking his pre-arranged holiday before taking upthe programme controller's role.

No decision will be madeabout replacing Goddard for thetime being. "Gordon will haveassistance from head of musicLindsay Wesker and senior pro-ducer Lorna Clark. We will seehow things develop," saysMcDowell.

Kiss FM's format adjustmentsfollow programming changes atLondon's other specialist stationJazz FM earlier this year, reflect-ing the intense battle for listenersand revenue now being fought bythe London stations.

INR1 Advertising ProspectsPoor, Says Zenith's HydeThe FM non -pop national licence(INR1) will not attract new adver-tisers into radio and will not evenappeal to existing clients, saysZenith head of radio Steve Hyde.

Hyde, who runs the radio partof the UK's biggest media -buyingagency, says "Putting the non -popstation on FM is contrary to every-thing radio has been trying to do.The Radio Authority has missed apriceless opportunity to put newadvertising money into radio and,what's worse, INR1 will mitigateagainst traditional advertisers.

"Advertisers aim at 16-34 yearolds on national FM and then topup with the regional FM stations.If they want to reach an olderaudience, they will have a weakone -stop buy on FM, which theywill have to top up on regionalAM stations. This means thatadvertisers can't easily reach the

people they want and confirmstheir perception that radio is apa-thetic towards advertisers."

Hyde says that the three appli-cants for INR1 offer some interest-ing aspects for advertisers despitethe fact that their audiences will bedifferent from the establishedindependent radio profile. Headds, "FNR - The Showtime Sta-tion is an interesting concept.Their format of stage and filmmusic could be stylishly presented.It offers opportunities for themedadvertisements and forcorporations who actively sponsorthe arts to feel an affinity with thestation.

"Classic FM's format is proba-bly what most people regard asclassical music, rather than BBCRadio 3's output. They may find itdifficult to merge any modernmusic. which could make up to

25% of their output. They willprobably stick to classical andnon -pop.

"UKFM/Clyde's format meansa more relaxed Melody Radiostyle. But if [MD] Jimmy Gordongets the freedom he needs, then hewill certainly pay close attentionto the commercial aspects of thestation. If they achieve a 12% pen-etration, it would produce an audi-ence size that would be attractiveto advertisers.

"What will be interesting, ifUKFM wins the licence, will be tosee how Hanson's Melody Radioresponds. He has already built upan audience in London, but itwould be strange if he was to com-pete with another station that he isbacking. He has the option tochange Melody's format, or hecould move his audience over toUKFM and get out." HF

IPA Uses Radio To Spur Ad GrowthThe Institute of Practitioners inAdvertising (IPA) has addedradio to its campaign to encour-age companies to continue adver-tising through the recession.

With the backing of the RadioMarketing Bureau (RMB), two40 -second commercials are slatedfor network transmission this

month. One adopts a building siteanalogy, arguing for companies tobuild while others cut back, andthe other has a group of advertis-ers trapped in the jungle and sur-rounded by wild animals. It asks,"Is this the time to unload yourgun? Or the time to take aim?"

The commercials were written

by Ralph van Dijk and MartinSims of Eardrum, the companyinvolved in an RMB-backed cam-paign last summer. SatelliteMedia Services, Angell Sound,Atmospheric Music, AndrewBurt and Carlin Music have alsodonated their services to the adcampaign. HF

Moderaterna Calls For FreeRadio In Sweden By 1992by David Rowley

Under a conservative govern-ment, free radio could be intro-duced in Sweden from the middleof next year, the secretary ofSweden's Moderaterna Partydeclared at a major radio confer-ence in Gothenburg late lastmonth.

Per Unekel told the confer-ence-set up by the SwedishEmployers Federation (SAF)and the Nliringslivets MediaInstitut-that the question ofderegulation of radio in Swedenwas not a complicated matter.

That viewpoint is in sharpcontrast to the ruling SocialDemocrat Party, which has indi-cated technical considerationswould have to he resolved beforethe political question could beaddressed.

Lucke] told the delegates.invited from radio stations aroundSweden. that the technical andpolitical questions should he tack-led simultaneously. He said that anew Government following theSeptember 17 elections could

start the proceedings immediatelyand a proposition could be pre-sented to the Riksdag (theSwedish parliament) by the endof next February.

Another key aspect of hisspeech was that a conservativecoalition did not want any restric-tion on private radio program-ming, ownership and, that only inexceptional cases, would restric-tions be imposed.

The conference was also pre-sented with a report entitled."Free Radio In A Sweden WithFree Media", which dealt withhow and when radio deregulationshould happen.

Other speakers included RadioOne/Oslo's Jon Morten Melhus,who explained how deregulationand advertising on radio affectsthe advertising market.

Held on May 24, this is thesecond year that a conference ofthis kind has been presented. Thedelegates also tackled issues ontechnical problems of frequencysharing and opening up the FMhand between 104 and 108 MHzfor private radio.

Mechanical Licence FeesBoost GEMA Income 12%

by Robert Lyng

Feeling the first effects of Germanreunification, GEMA, Germany'scollection association for mechan-ical and performance rights,reports yet another record year for1990.

On May 28, GEMA chairmanReinhold Keile revealed that theorganisation collected DM811.2million (app. US$471.4 million)last year. That's up DM90 millionover last year. The biggestincrease was in mechanical repro-duction rights, which isattributable as a positive effect ofthe newly reunified market in thefive new federal states.

Despite hefty investmentsneeded since Oct. 3, 1990 to set upthree regional offices and fivelocal offices in the newstates-which had previously beenpaid to the now defunctAWA-Kreile pointed out that it

was possible to reduce GEMA'soperating costs from 15.1% in1989 to 14.3% last year. Kreilealso predicts considerable invest-ments in the Eastern states duringthe course of 1991.

A total of DM695.5 million(DM605.5 million) was earmarked

for distribution to composers, lyri-cists, arrangers and publishers, aswell as to other national and for-eign rights societies. Prior to dis-tribution of these funds, GEMAwitheld DM16.9 million for cul-tural subsidies and DM7.3 millionfor its social benefits plan.

Bo Westlund, producerwith Kanon TV, who also producedthe Swedish Grammys for SVT,says, "We and Sony Music hadbeen talking ever since the GrammyAwards that we should try and do afull show with Michael. Then weheard that he would be in Europedoing promotion for his new album.So the idea was born that we shoulddo this live mini -concert togetherwith an interview."

Per Sundin, marketing managerat Sony Music Sweden, adds"Michael and his manager LouisLevin liked the idea, provided thathe would be backed - up by thesame musicians and same TV pro-ducer as he had the last time. Moni-ca Eek, head of light entertainmentat SVT Kanal 1, liked the idea, too,so the partnership was formed. Wepaid for the costs at the restaurant,Michael's expenses, and the musi-

cians, while SVT paid for the costof production. This project cost usless than a commercial campaignon TV3, which doesn't have thesame coverage as SVT."

Sony has the rights tot he mate-rial for promotion purposes outsideScandinavia as well.

Adds Sundin, "We will definite-ly be working in this directionagain, but it can only work with the'right' artists." Other labels agreewith Sundin. Comments BengtBerg, marketing manager at BMGAriola, "It has to be done with wideappeal artists." Says Ulf Walden-

crantz, head of promotion at Vir-gin, "It has to be an artist who isgood live and with the right charis-ma."

Regarding future projects,Westlund comments "These pro-grammes are not cheap. The initia-tive will have to come from inde-pendent producers. We will have tolook at new ways of producing.New artists should also be fea-tured. I have already beenapproached by other record com-panies, but at the end of the day it'sall down to public reactions andviewing figures."

IT'S A WRAP -Michael Bolton gathers with friends after his tapedshow for SVT 1 (see accompanying story). Standing (l -r) are: EvaHulth, Lois Levin, Haan Krantz, Vicke Harris, Sten of Klinteberg,Bolton, Per Sundin and Hans Skoglung. Seated ((l -r) are: Jan GrikBlom and Niklas Back.

Virgin Loves Women; TrioGet Priority Status

Virgin France has a crush onthree new promising female actsand it wants the French industryto know it.

Louis Feron, Saliha andElisabeth Am& are the label'spriorities for the season. Virgin isplanning a marketing push thatgoes beyond the normal promo-tional campaign for new acts.

Comments Virgin marketingmanager Main Artaud "Even ifthere are few outlets playingvideos in France, we decided toproduce a music video for eachartist . We believe that investingin image is very important, evenat an early stage of a career."

Rock act Feron is even gettinga personal promotional pushfrom Virgin president FabriceNataf, who includes a letter witheach record. Feron's new recordis being sent to some 60 keythose, beyond the media andmusic industry, including thosefrom political, i ndust ri al, eco-nomical and cultural fields, suchas philosopher Bernard -HenryLevy, writer Philippe Djian andfinancial specialist Alain Mine.

Last year. Fermi's first single.blithe Sous Le Chorine, sold40.000 copies. Her self -titleddebut album was produced byformer Velvet Undergroundmember John Cale, with addi-tional mix by Michel Coeriot.The first single, Souvenir DeL'Avenir, according to Artaud, isreceiving, "good reception fromAM stations" and some FM sta-tions "have been receptive."

Artaud adds. "As usual. FM sta-tions are slow to react, but I'mnot wonted and I'm still confi-dent."

For rap artist Saliba. Virginhas invested in both a video forthe song. fe Prose, taken fromher first album Unique, and on -tour support. Saliha is taking partin a current French Rap Tour.with rappers from Marseilles IAM and ragamuffin artist Ton -ton David. Those two acts arelicensed to Virgin by rap labelLabelle Noir, which early in

1990 compiled Rappatitudes,marking the beginning of theFrench rap trend.

Says Artaud, "We have usedthis tour to promote her locally.In each city, she visits FM sta-tions, local retailers and rap com-munities. The sale of &ippon-tudes is proof of increasing rapinterest, and I AM has alreadysold over 30.000 copies of theiralbum, De La Plante Mars,without radio support."

Ands has just completed herdebut album, which is to bereleased by Virgin next month.The first single. Legende, hasalready been dispatched to radiostations, and will be promoted bya video shot by US directorHoward Greenheigh. This hasalready been chosen by TV chan-nel M6 and is to be aired exten-sively. Artaud says of her, "Anal'sis a young artist without anyrecording history and we feel it isimportant to build her image byinvesting in video." EL

Liner Notes Cause ProblemsFor Consolidated Vinyl

The vinyl release of the new Con-solidated album has been post-poned by up to three weeks. Mainreason: the manufacturer of thealbum's inner -sleeve, Druco, wasunwilling to print it.

PIAS MD Kenny Gates saysthe record sleeve did include sev-eral statements that express opin-ions on the US, fascism and Presi-dent Bush. But, he says, "I thinkthat Sony (Music Holland)should not be able to decide, cer-tainly not without consulting us,what to print or not. They cannotmake such unilateral decisions,and I am worried that we still havenot received any answer."

The album was released May13 on CD, and already Gates

claims to have suffered a certainloss because of the vinyl delay."We have asked Sony in Holland to give us precise reasonswhy they wouldn't print thesleeve. I also wanted to knowtheir censorship policy, but wehaven't received any answer yet.They make judgements on whatcan and can not be printed."

At Sony's pressing plant inHaarlem, Holland, head of pro-duction Alex Bisi is out of thecountry and unavailable forcomment. MM

The French music industry awards,Les Victoires De La Musique, isundergoing alterations in order to"improve the dynamic" of theshow following strong criticismafter this year's ceremony in

February. The announcement wasmade after a May 17 meeting ofthe Association of the Victoiresde la Musique, a regrouping of allthose involved in the venture.

The Association elected a newboard, which includes Carrere'sgeneral manager Rene Guitton,who is also president of collectingrights society SCPP. He replacedDial (PolyGram's mail-order ser-vice) MD Denis Boyer, formerlyPhonogram's MD, as president ofthe association.

Guitton says the changes arebeing planned for the next Vic-toires awards so that "the resultsreflect the tastes of the large pub -

French Rock And Ecology:Skyrock Plans Summer Promo

by Jaqueline Eacott

Skyrock is going green. The ParisFM station is aiming to hard-hitall the right spots --and maintainits ratings --by focusing its promo-tional and programming efforts ontopics close to the hearts of its 15-25 year old listeners: French rockand the environment.

A "Save the Future" weekendis planned to show listeners thatthe station cares and understandsits listeners.

Comments Skyrock program-me director Laurent Bouneau,"We're inviting Jean -MichelJarre to come into the Skyrockstudios every morning over a two-week period. He'll be doing ashort spot in the Zigotos show,which will be funny, but at the

same time will have a seriousside." Jarre makes his debut onJune 17.

Skyrock also plans to coverJane's performance in a specialecology concert, which is set forJuly 11 in Mexico, as well as co-sponsoring Jane's forthcoming'Best Of compilation album, duefor release this autumn.

Another endangered species-young French rock artists-alsogets the Skyrock treatment. Bou-neau says, "We've launched a spe-cial operation -The Frogs areBack-to re -focus on French rockgroups. During a weekend we willbe emphasising the best of currentFrench rock, playing a differentact every hour. Our listeners cancontact us via the Minitel to saywhich groups they like best."

lie." This year's ceremony receivedsevere media criticism when BMGbest-selling artist Patrick Bruelwas nominated in three differentcategories, but received no award.The absence of Bruel from thewinning list caused NRJ pro-gramme director Max Guazzini toquestion the validity of the votingprocess.

Guazzini comments, "In theUS, the Grammys are prizes dis-tributed to the best and the mostpopular. In France, professionalsvote for their favorite artists whoare not necessarily the public'sfavourites. This is what happenedwith Bruel."

Guitton says "a lot of ideaswere discussed during the boardmeeting" to find ways to improvethe event. He doesn't want to elab-orate on the new developments,saying that they will be decided bythe board of the Victoires. He hasinvited all the members to submittheir ideas over the followingweeks.

Guitton explains that the list ofvoters will be carefully monitored,and changed if need be in order toreflect the diversity of the industry.Some 3.000 people are currentlyon the voting list and he adds, "Wehave asked to see the list of voters.It will be carefully reviewed, espe-cially the list of retailers, and ifneeded, we'll introduce new crite-rias of choice, in order to get themost up-to-date list, representingall the variety of the music indus-

BRTN Radio Bans NewMatthysen Toyota Single

by Marc Maes

BRTN Studio Brussels head JanSchoukens has decided that thenew single by Hugo Matthysen,Toyota Carina, is to be bannedfrom the airwaves during the week-end because the song includes aclear publicity message.

Schoukens reported his decisionto BRTN radio director Piet vanRoe, who immediately began aninvestigation which has resulted inthe song receiving no airplay onStudio Brussel. Radio 1 andRadio 2 have also been unwillingto add the record to their playlist.

BMG Ariola head of promo-tion Hilde van Steenvoort con-firms the BRTN decision, saying"Although we regret that the song

will not be aired as much as wewould have liked, it now seems thatToyota Carina received a lot ofmedia attention. We reached theevening TV news and most of theimportant dailies."

Contrary to BRTN radio, BRTTV plans to air the song on a show,while VTM has confirmed that thealleged "advertising song", will bebroadcast on their Flemish chartTV -show.

Matthysen says he can notunderstand the opposition towardsToyota Carina, while songs likePink Cadillac (Bruce Spring-steen), and Mercedes Benz (JanisJoplin) were played. Radio 2 pro-ducer Paul de Meulder, who atpress -time had not received anyofficial directives banning the

record, says "Those songs areestablished hits. I think we shouldrespect our advertisers and spon-sors and not play the record. I don'thave the song on this week'splaylist. But I will play it when itreaches the Flemish top 10."

At Studio Brussel, host and pro-ducer Mark Coenen says the prob-lem with the record is that theyhave it on their playlist, whichmeans it is played four times a day.He adds, "The song mentions theToyota brandname some eight to10 times, plus the DJ's introduction.With BRTN radio airing advertis-ing, we must be more careful. Iwould like to state that we are notboycotting the new single, whichis, in my opinion, probably the bestsingle Matthysen has made."

Columbia ReleasesDance Compilation

Rare dance music tracks fromthe late '70s and early '80s, havebeen included on Dance ClubVolume I, a new compilationalbum released only on nationalterritory by Sony Music's Col-umbia label. Special dance sta-tion Radio Capital/Milanbecame involved in the selectionprocess through artistic directorPhilippe Renault jr., whohelped provide some of thematerial.

The project was put togetherby Sony's special marketingproduct manager FrancescoBottoni. He describes the albumas "a child of mine" but admitsthat the birth was not easy. "Allthe songs included are the origi-nals. They have all been digitallyre -mastered, but we didn't wantmixes or re -mixes. Finding sonicoriginal versions was extremelydifficult."

Panarecord Dischi Palladi-um, PolyGram Italy, BMCAriola, Baby Records and CGDalso supplied material for the

album. Bottoni says he believe,the best way to promote atm.('Club Volume I is by having it

He explains, "We have gonefor radio rather than TV advertis-ing and we selected RadioMonte Carlo/Milan, RTI, 102.5Hit Radio/Bergamo, Radio Di-mensione Suono/Rome. RadiitSubasio/Perugia, Radio Norbai-.Bari and Radio Studio Sicar/-Sicily for the advertising cam-paign." Bottoni has come upwith idea of including clips fro'eight of the songs, into each 30 -second ad.

He says that Dance Club Vol-

ume I represents one side of thecurrent dance scene on nationalterritory. "While half of the dis-cos and radio stations are playinhouse music, the other halfplaying music of this genre. Weoriginally intended a doublealbum but, depending on sales.we will release Volume 2 in thefuture."

Bottoni remains uncertainwhether the album will he

Impulse Debuts Dance Chartby David Stansfield

The rise in the popularity of dancemusic on national territory has

prompted the Brescia -based firmImpulse Promotion to compile bi-weekly chart listings, which includetop labels, videos, producers, top 2012" mix singles sales, plus a chartdevoted to radio airplay.

Nicola Pollastri, the company'shead of promotion, says the projectwas launched because of the beliefthat Italian -produced dance musiccould no longer be viewed as sec-ond class. With the success of manylocally produced records on theinternational market, it has changedfrom being a phenomenon into areality. The firm claims that noother comprehensive dance musicchart exists on national territory. Itsself -financed listings are distributedto record companies, radio stations,discotheques, DJs and retail outlets.

About 600 retailers contribute tothe sales chart, while around 200radio stations are involved in com-piling the airplay top 20 chart.These are split into different groups:Bandiera, which covers the nation-al networks with more than onemillion daily listeners; Bianci,which includes stations with an

average daily audience of 400.000;Blu 100.000; and Verdi 70.000.

All placings are based on airplayand the station's own dance chart.Key national stations RAI, Rete105, Radio Deejay, Radio KissKiss, Gamma Radio, RTL 102.5Hit Radio, 101 Network and Ra-dio Dimension Suono all furnishthe company with information, asdo leading regional broadcasters

such as Radio Subasio and RadioPadova.

Impulse Promotion is negotiat-ing with an un-named, national net-work station, which is expected toair each chart on different days. Thecompany is also planning a dancemusic Oscar event, which will bestaged at the end of this year andtransmitted on one of Silvio Berlus-coni's private TV channels.

Suono Extends Late Night Talk ShowRadio Dimension Suono has strengthen-ed its talk show commitment by extendingthe recently introduced late -night pro-gramme "I Rompitasche" into July. Broad-cast every Friday from 24:00-03:00, theshow, which is presented by Gege Teles-fora and Flavio Andreini, was originallyscheduled to run for 10 weeks. But, accord-ing to station programme director BrunoPloyer, tremendous listener response haschanged their minds. Comments Ployer,"Audience figures are of minor importance

after midnight. But, we have discovered lis-tener loyalty. People who tune in late atnight listen carefully to what is being said.This is the other side of commercial radiobecause daytime audiences don't often payattention to talk."

"I Rompetasche" tackles serious sub-jects, but humourously, with listeners phone-ins an integral part of the show. Ployer, whodirects the programmes and pre -selects thecallers, explains, "What they say has to be ofinterest to a wide public, not just themselves,

RNE Increases Audience FiguresBy Anna Marie de la Fuente

The latest EGM study, coveringthe first quarter of 1991, confirmsa substantial audience share

increase for state radio RNE. Thissuccess is attributed to the start ofthe Gulfwar during February andMarch.

Out of its six networks, AMnews station RNE-1 drew over500.000 more listeners than in theprevious quarterly report, pushingprivate network Antena 3 intosecond place behind SER FM andAM radio.

RNE-1's director Alicia Fer-nandez says, "We're very pleased.All the other RNE networks havealso done very well." The mostsuccessful RNE programme isJavier Visagra's off -beat morning'magazine' show on RNE-1, whichis up 400.000 listeners. Yet, Fer-

nandez has some reservationsabout the reliability of the EGMstudy, "I certainly don't take theEGM results as gospel truth, butit's the only one we can rely on."

RNE-1's morning news show,Espana A Las Ocho (Spain at8:00) has captured an audience of951.000, which is up on the lastquarterly findings of 828.000.

New -look RNE-5 and classicalmusic station RNE-2 have experi-enced rises of 23% and 36.9%respectively, while pop music sta-tion RNE-3 saw a 19.5% increasein its audience share.

AM station RNE-5 revampedits programming last October in abid to provide more commercialshows. To host the new pro-grammes it has signed well-knownmedia personalities Joaquin Pratand Manola Ferreras.

FM pop station RNE-3 now

reaches 497.000 listeners. Byadopting the 24 -hour pop formatearlier this year, it aims to re -targetaudience demographics, attractinglisteners of 14-25, rather than 15-44. Director Jose AntonioVisuila" , appointed in April, saysits present audience demo is 20-34, and adds, "We're thinking ofintroducing youth -targeted after-

noon and weekend programmes."Classical FM station RNE-2,

with an audience of 245.000,enjoyed the most spectacular in-crease in listening shares

(+36.9%). Miguel Alonso, an ex -priest and composer appointed lastApril, feels that, "The audience isunpredictable," and that the rea-sons for the station's increasedaudience could be due to manyexternal factors. He says that plansare underway to introduce moreeducational programmes.



SINGLES

The AlarmRaw - IRSSome bands just keep getting better, yetremain overlooked. For too long, TheAlarm have been accused of being U2imitators. On the title track from their newalbum, the four Welshmen have crys-tallised their distinctive brand of rock 'nroll into three and a half minutes. With apowerful electric sound, topped off byacoustic guitars, they produce a raw androcking song.

Blue Crow MenSound Of Silence - MercuryYoung Swedish band move the Simon &Garfunkel classic into the dance era.Unlike many other contemporary bands,they have covered, rather than rebuilt, theoriginal. Underpinned by the unmistakable"madchester" beat, the song is set for anew adventure on ERR.

Crowded HouseChocolate Cake - CapitolTim and Neil Finn have rejoined on thisintelligently structured pop song with alive -in -the -studio co -production by Mit-chell Froom. Likely to draw some goodairplay on a multitude of formats, this is agood taster of the forthcoming Woodfacealbum, released on June 24.

Definition Of SoundNow Is Tomorrow - CircaThe follow-up single to Wear Your LoveLike Heaven, is a combination of hip hopand "indie dance". The refrain, sung byElaine Vassell, is very infectious while theirresistible bass line will keep the listenersdancing.

EnyaExile - WEAFrom the motion picture L.A. Story. Notmany people have the talent to take youback into the middle ages. Even less like-ly, is the transformation of that music intoradio friendly songs. But Enya can, andhas done it.

Lonnie GordonGonna Catch You - BiteThe chorus is so catchy, that the title mustcome true. The saxophones give thepop/dance song a very energetic feel. Afeast for dance programmers. High inChartbound this week.

Lindy LaytonWait For Love - AristaPop/dance seems to be this year's mostenduring mixed marriage. On the follow-up to Echo My Heart, la Layton keeps therhythm slow. Produced and mixed by for-mer bass player Norman Cook (BeatsInternational), it has a very demandingbass line.

LioThe Girl From Ipanema - PolydorThe trendiest version of this Brazilianevergreen to date. Sensual singer Lio pullsthe tune into the dance section. While thebeat whips around you.

Master FatmanS.O.S. - EMIThe Danish get blue on this mercilesscover version of ABBA's famous song.The lead singer sounds like a hungry bear,this will keep little children awake. Onlyto be played during school time.

Kym MazelleNo One Can Love You More Than Me - Parlophone

The bongo intro is the prelude to a soulfuloutburst. On the overcrowded dance scenethere are some good soul singers to befound. Backed by a gospel -framed choir,the emotion in Mazelle's voice reacheslevels reminiscent of Aretha Franklin.

Alison MoyetWishing You Were Here - ColumbiaThe second single lifted from her newalbum, Hoodoo, has the charm of a Frenchchanson. Moyet's warm voice covers thewall of acoustic guitars and tasteful per-cussion.

Saliha

Je Pense - VirginA spotlight on the French dance scene.Taken from her album Unique, Saliha'snew single really adds something to thegenre. The bass synthesizer gives the songa mysterious air. While her rapping andsinging form a unique combination. EHRprogrammers, start spreading the news.

ALBUMS

Bang TangoDancin' On Coals - Mechanic/MCASecond album by Los Angeles -based,strikingly talented hard rock band, whoavoid the stereotypical. While singer JoeLeste is not your average shouter, gui-tarists Mark Knight and Kyle Stevensknow when to show restraint. The occa-sionally funky bassline by Kyle Kylegives the music an extra dimension. Pro-ducer John Jansen (Cinderella, FasterPussycat) must be praised for the fine bal-ance between the instruments and thegreat snare drum sound (something that islacking these days on rock records). TryEmotions In Gear and you'll know whatwe mean.

Electric Light OrchestraPart Two - TelstarReturn of the '70s starship of catchy sym-phonic pop, without Jeff Lynne but withdrummer Bev Bevan and violinist MikKaminski as the only two remaining mem-bers of the original line-up. But surpris-ingly, they have succeeded in reviving theold trademark sound of E.L.O.: strong har-mony vocals, in front of a wall of violins.On tracks where newcomer Eric Troyer isfeatured as lead singer, such as the firstsingle Honest Man, it is especially hard tospot the difference.

Hue And CryStars Crash Down - CircaSoft "blue-eyed soul" and folk -tingedsongs from the currently flourishing Glas-gow scene, which also brought us The BigDish and Deacon Blue. Members of whomfeature on the fourth album by "Kanebrothers", Patrick and Gregory, whotogether form Hue And Cry. The moststriking contribution however, is providedby fiddle player Ally Bain, on the trackRemembrance And Gold. Scottish bebopcombo the John Rae Collective give thetitle track and, Woman In Time, the jazzytouch the songs need.

Gringos LocosRaw Deal - Dig It (LP) (Finland)This leading Finnish hard rock band, havejust finished their three -days acoustictour, which took them into almost everybar in Helsinki. Hard rock programmersget punch drunk on the track LooneyTunes, with singer Richard G. Johnsonquoting Led Zeppelin's Rock n' Roll. Forthose who can't get enough of this alco-holic stuff: contact T.J. Lammers on tel.(31) 20 669 1981; fax: 20-170 856.

RiccoOn A Sunny Day - Sonet (LP) SwedenFirst recording by Richard Evenblind, underhis new artist name. He's currently collabo-rating as a songwriter, with Oson and Beard,the production team behind Army OfLovers. The melody of this pop/dance songis reminiscent of Paul Simon's Mother AndChild Reunion. Contact Lars-Olof Helen ontel. (46) 8-627 3800; fax: 8-983 070.

Snatch It BackEvil - Tramp/Munich (LP) (Holland)The hard line in blues is represented bythis Welsh four -piece band. No studio jig-gery-pokery, but one -take recordings ofpowerful material, which matches the no-nonsense production. The balancebetween original and cover is fifty-fifty.All together very mean stuff. Contact PaulDuvivie on tel. (31) 20-679 4503; fax:8389- 16588.

Villa 21Hellucinations - Penguin (LP) (Greece)In the same mould as '70s unforgettableDetroit trash rock acts like MC5 and Iggy& The Stooges; the Athens -based bandVilla 2I thrashes out once more. The out-standing track I Need More sounds like aremake of the Stooges classic, No Fun.Great fun for rock programmers though.Contact: tel: (30) 1-644 7058; fax: 1-3646875.

Johnny Hates JazzTall Stories - VirginMaybe not the most appropriate for thisspecial jazz issue, but the more interestingfor EHR programmers. This new album,the follow-up to Turn Back The Clock ('89),introduces new lead singer Phil Tornally,credited as songwriter for all 10 tracks. Yet,the sound hasn't changed much since thedays of their European hit single, ShatteredDreams, probably due to the continued col-laboration with producing duo CalvinHayes and Mike Nocito. The first single,Let Me Change Your Mind Tonight, with itsslow lazy beat, sets the tone for the rest ofthis melodic, soft pop album.

Evan Johns & His H -BombsRockit Fuel Only - RykodiscIs it a bird? Is it a plane? No it's Evan Johnstaking -off in his rocketship, from rhythm &blues Eldorado and garageland Austin,Texas. His weapons; the most gravellyvoice since Tom Waits and Eddie Hinton,and a souped -up electric guitar. Spread thecover version of Dr. Ross' Boogie Disease .

Peter & The Electro Kitsch BandPete A L'Inter - SquattProduced by Mark Plati (Talking Heads,Prince, New Order), this is the debut albumby the 20 year -old keyboardist/ singerPeter, a French version of Prince. Thoughthe young pretender sings in his mothertongue, or in English with a thick accent,the atmosphere is defined by the Min-neapolis sound. And the comparisons don'tend there, as the album was mixed at thegrandmaster's own Paisley Park Studios.The title of this dance pop album, derivesfrom one of Dr. Spock's famous one-liners,from '70s popular TV -series "Star Trek".Dance programmers Are You Ready?

Violent Femmes

Do Birds Sing? - SlashEight years_ ago they surprised the worldwith their eponymously titled debutalbum. Singer Gordon Gano sounded likea young Lou Reed, but as playful asJonathan Richman. Since then, they havebeen unable to reach the same level offun -rock, but on their new Michael Bein-horn (Material, Red Hot Chili Peppers)produced album, they managed to recap-ture the old spirit. By stepping backwards,the Milwaukee based semi -acoustic trio,has taken a huge step forwards. The trackwith the most fun, is their cover of CultureClub's Do You Really Want To Hurt Me?.

M&M Introduces NewMonthly Jazz Page

The proliferation of jazz labels, radio shows and jazz festivals in citiesthroughout Europe testifies to the vigor of this most international of musicalgenres. Jazz, born of the blues around the turn of the century in the southernUnited States, is a phenomenon that continues to evolve nearly one hundredyears on. It is an art form remarkably open to influences from other genres andcultures, and in turn has influenced music the world over with its rhythmicinventiveness and love for improvisation. Jazz takes on all corners, and trans-forms whatever it embraces into something both timeless and contemporary.

Music & Media this week launches a monthly page devoted entirely toJazz and its place in the radio and music industries. We will feature airplayreports, sales information, record reviews, news, upcoming events, and inter-views/features on the people that help Jazz make waves.

er and program director HansRuland came to radio via an earlyappreciation of jazz. An accom-plished pianist, he is also author ofa book on the life and music ofDuke Ellington, and editor of JazzZeitung, a monthly periodicaldevoted primarily to the jazz scenein and around Munich.

Jazz-Welle Plus has grownfrom a mere eight hours of air timeper week when it was started fiveyears ago to its current 38, andnow includes several hours of clas-sical music as well as a programdedicated to literature. There is nodoubt that this cultural emphasishas been a success. Jazz-WellePlus has recently been granted alicence to begin operating a new24 -hour station in Hamburg thisautumn.

But the Munich station encoun-tered resistance at first from boththe industry and the government."Nobody really wanted to have uson the air," Ruland explains, " butultimately they couldn't prevent us.We went all the way to theSupreme Court. We fought nineseparate cases involving regula-tions and attempts to thwart us, andwe won them all. Everybody saidit was impossible, that we'd begone in two months. Most of thosewho said this are long gone and weare still very much alive."

Neither skepticism nor legalchallenges altered the original idea."We do everything differently, wedon't follow strict programmingrules. For instance, we speak aslong as it makes sense to speak."

This liberated philosophy haspaid off with a large and devotedaudience. Asserts Ruland, "Wehave a lot of educated people lis-tening to our station, and our lis-teners are very loyal. When weplay an advertisement they listen,because there are no equivalentstations to tune to." But he empha-sizes that advertising must beappropriate. "It doesn't make senseto do an ad for Burger King, butfor a first-rate restaurant or BMWit makes perfect sense."

A growing segment of his audi-ence are young people. "We have anew generation of very successfuljazz musicians whom the youngergeneration of listeners can identifywith. It's very difficult for a 20 -year -old to identify with the 80 -year -old Lionel Hampton. Butnow there's Wynton Mamas orMarcus Roberts."

Ruland believes in taking anaggressive role in exposing newmusic, - music which gets almostno airplay. "We are trying to

change that. You just have toexpose people to this other musicagain and again until they get usedto it. Then they become addicted."

Jazz Radio: From Cellar To StellarWhat Walter Schaetzlein does in his cellar is nothis hobby. Running Ntimberg's Jazz StudioClub in a cellar under the town castle is his job,

three nights a week. In his spare time, he goes into theoffices and studios of Radio FM Niirnberg. For one houra week, at '20.00 on Sundays, Walter takes over the fre-quency, as JazzTime Niirnberg, one of Germany's manysmall private radio stations.

As Schaetzlein finishes his show, Alan Shipton is arriv-ing at FOX -FM, Oxford's local commercial station, to pre-sent his own one -hour, weekly jazz show. On Mondaymorning he too goes to another job, as a publisher of musicreference books at Blackwells. He's also a bass player.

Later on that night, several stations in Norway put outDavid Fishel's Jazz Scene Hour. He makes at it at home onDAT.

Until recently his day job was promotions manager forPolyGram Norway. Now he's producing TV, film andradio ads for Young & Rubicam in Oslo. He started out inLiverpool as a keyboard player, Patti Boulez's musicaldirector, and 'Malcolm McLaren's right-hand man'. Buthe's always been a jazz fan.

The Week In JazzEurope's jazz week begins again at 22.00 on Monday withKurt Weil's show on Zurich's Opus Radio, a satellite -delivered service, which most of the time plays classical

"We'd all like to have more sta-tions like Jazz FM. It's unique inEurope, and its impact on salesis tremendous." - Michael Jacoby

music. But Weil fits the show in between his work, for thepast six years, as marketing director of GRP Records,Switzerland. It is, of course, a jazz label.

Jazz broadcasters seem to like their careers as they liketheir music: improvised. Trying to sort out Europe's jazzradio and record scene rapidly becomes a free -form experi-ence. Talk to a label boss and he turns out to be the localjazz DJ. The festival promoter in one EC country holds astation -ownership stake in another. A guy who edits jazzbiographies plays in a band with a guy who writes them.And they've both got radio shows.

DJs with day jobs are not so rare. But in the jazz world,unlike dance music, pop or rock, there is no perceivedpotential crossover. A career as a jazz broadcaster maylead to greater prominence on the jazz scene, but is unlike-ly to lead to a more glamourous mainstream broadcastingcareer. So it must be love.

Unfortunately, this creates the impression that jazzradio is a self-imposed ghetto populated by aging hipsters.In fact, jazz radio may be on the verge of the greatestgrowth of any specialised format.

Although it's remarkable how radio stations acrossEurope, whether pop, classical or whatever, despite differ-ences in the legal set-up of stations between countries, slottheir jazz at the same time (after 20.00, and preferably onweekends). Even those shows described above are effec-tively breaking down the walls. JazzTime Niirnberg startedbroadcasting in 1986. David Fishel's Jazz Scene is barely15 months old. The satellite -delivered version of KurtWeil's show is of similarly youthful vintage. If this is still aghetto, it's getting pretty crowded.

The Impact Of Jazz FMThese new specialist shows are one of the two key signsthat jazz's moment to break through may upon us. Theother, as every jazz label will tell you, is the existence ofjust one new station: Jazz FM.

"In France some stations play a certain percentage ofjazz:- Michel Pacaud has a good show on Europe 1, andFrance Inter now has two regular jazz shows a day", says

Tony Harlow, jazz marketing manager for EMI Europe."But there's only really one station that we have a reallyactive relationship with, and that's Jazz FM/London. We'retrying to develop similar relationships with the French sta-tions and RAI 3's "Bluenote" show in Italy, but it's harderto achieve much when their time on -air is limited."

"We'd all like to have more stations like Jazz FM", saysMichael Jacoby, managing director of VeraBra Records."It's unique in Europe, and its impact on sales is tremen-dous." Speaking in his capacity as marketing director forGRP Records, Kurt Weil agrees, "Sales are up tremendous-ly in the UK."

But ask jazz fans in the UK what they think, and youmight get a more ambivalent response. Jazz FM managingdirector John Bradford explains, "The enthusiasts of onekind of jazz can be more jealous of their area than support-ers of Midwall and Charlton (bitter rival football teams ofSouth London). Frequently, their concept of jazz consistsonly of what they like, to the exclusion of all other jazz."

"The aim? First, to get peopleinto listening to us on the radio,and second, to introduce awider public to the joys of jazz.So people who already knowtheir way around jazz are notthe top priority."

-John Bradford

These criticisms were being voiced even before the sta-tion's shake-up and revision of programming policy back inFebruary, in the wake of disappointing ratings (a 5% reach;average listening four hours). But, in fact, the formatchanges were not directed at disgruntled, established jazzfans. Jazz FM saw its problem as something rather differ-ent.

"There was too much of a danger of jumping around ina very short time frame between different styles", saysBradford. "There was almost a belief: you will like the firstone of three, tolerate the second and dislike the third. Ithink it was based on a false premise. So we've removedsome of the most aggressive listening from daytime. We'renot quite so spikey.

"What we've got now does let the enthusiast in, buteven jazz enthusiasts at breakfast time are looking for aclean shirt, and it's difficult to pay attention to track infor-mation at the same time - recorded on this date in 1953, so-and-so on drums - so we've tried to make it more accessi-ble. The aim? First, to get people into listening to us on theradio, and second, to introduce a wider public to the joys ofjazz. So people who already know their way around jazzare not the top priority."

Programming JazzThis is the bullet jazz has to bite. It's true enough that indif-ference from pop programmers to crossover jazz releases (let

"They've (Radio Monte Carlo/-

Italy) proven that a jazz andinstrumental -based format canbe successful." - Frank van Houten

alone mainstream mes) has been unfair. Many label bosses'comments on how jazz has been treated by radio in generalare almost unprintable. Most say they get their new releasesto specialist DJs. David Fishel and Alan Shipton seem tohave no complaints. But on the other hand, both WalterSchaetzlein at Ja77Time Nurnberg, and Hans Ruland ofJazz Welle Plus/Munich, among others, say they have tobuy many releases. If jazz labels want a 24 -hour station, thenthey have to face the demands of the complex programmer -provider relationship. The jazz the station might want to playmight not be the jazz labels are selling the most of to estab-lished fans. And jazz fans have to accept that uninitiated lis-teners may have broader minds than their own.

A perfect case in point is the recent success of RadioMonte Carlo/Italy. During the day it has a soft rock/ACformat. But between 21.00 and 02.00 things are different.At the end of 1988, a new format was introduced at nightin an attempt to break new -age music in Italy. Since then,however, as programme controller Novella Hazanexplains, it has evolved to embrace contemporary jazz andworld music as well.

"We're playing vocals by Dianne Reeves, new tracks byKenny G and Pat Metheny, world music from people likeRuichi Sakamoto, as well as new age. In 1988 it was justthe music and jingles. We had an overwhelming response,so we introduced presenters, playing two cuts, then givingbrief links. A year ago in a magazine poll we were votedNo. 6 among Italy's top 10 stations, and since then our rat-ings have gone up by 40%. We follow the Billboard con-temporary jazz lists. I'd call us hip easy -listening."

Purists might be appalled, but it works. "They'veproven that a jazz and instrumental -based format can besuccessful", says Frank van Houten, general manager ofWindham Hill Europe.

Jazz can work in other combination formats as well.Ruland's private station Jazz Welle Plus, as the name sug-gests, does not just play jazz. In the four hours it has eachweekday evening on the frequency it shares with oldiesstation Radio Arabella, jazz shows covering all styles(new releases Wednesdays, bop Thursdays, and so on) are



JAZZ: 1991 FESTIVAL LINE-UP

interspersed with talk shows on literature and art, and clas-sical music programmes.

"Every two weeks we reach 120.000 listeners, and 70%of them are university -educated", says Ruland. The stationpays its way by advertising and sponsorship. It is prof-itable, but then Ruland and his wife are the entire staff, andthe studio is built in his former kitchen. Yet it proves whatcan be done outside of corporate ambition.

EuroJazz: New Kid On The BlockThen, at the other end of the scale, comes the new satellite -delivered station EuroJazz. Its programmes will be spe-cially -recorded on DAT by presenters at owner KLON,Los Angeles' only fulltime jazz station (it won't be astraight feed relay of the LA signal) and organised at thestation's office in Gibraltar, before being transmitted to thesatellite from an uplink in Usingen, Germany. A smallnumber of shows will be recorded in Europe, using estab-lished jazz radio names.

"We're trying to import into Europe the American jazzradio format", says director Wilbehnina Steyling, who hasbeen a member of the North Sea Jazz Festival board formany years. In common with Jazz Welle Plus, EuroJazz isaiming for a highly educated audience.

"It's our first move into the international market, andprobably won't be the last" says KLON's general mangerRick Lewis. KLON is 30th out of 100 stations in LA, and10th largest of the US's American public radio stations."We really do aspire to be the best jazz station in theworld," says Lewis. "And audiences elsewhere are moreappreciative of jazz than in America. It sometimes seemsjazz is least appreciated here at home."

If Lewis is right, then it might explain why jazz radio issuddenly on the move in Europe. But if the European radioindustry doesn't move fast, the Americans may reclaimtheir heritage first. Crucially, KLON knows how to makejazz work as a consistent radio format and not just as a spe-cialist slot for enthusiasts. This is a skill European radiohas only just started to acquire. by Ken Garner

JAZZ: ALBUM REVIEWS

Vince Jones

Trustworthy Little Sweethearts - VeraBraAustralian Vince Jones arrives on the European jazz scenewith a wonder of an album. Everything is right here, fromthe choice of tunes to the choice of musicians, but especial-ly the vocals which lend it the coherence of a classicrecording. At first Vince sounds like the heir to Mose Ali-son-a smooth blues stylist with a touch of irony. But lis-ten more closely; his range is greater, matched by a confi-dence closer to Nat King Cole. And he plays trumpet! Youcan't go wrong with songs like the opener, Big City, or thetitle track, composed with guitar player Doug de Vries.Credit must also go to Vince for the beautiful production.Contact Michael Jacoby on tel. (49) 221-512-031;fax:221-529-563.

Carla BleyThe Very Big Carla Bley Band - Watt/ECMA stunning tribute to the special territory of big band jazz.Echoes of Ellington abound in the often playful arrange-ments, and the tension between ensemble and soloists istaut throughout. Her compositions swerve between melodicclarity and a brooding bluely feel reminiscent of CharlieMingus. This is especially so on All Fall Down, perhapsthe album's best cut, or Who Will Rescue You, with its fineforward momentum and inspired solos. This challengingalbum easily meets the traditional criterion for this kind ofmusic: it swings! Contact Heino Freiberg on tel. (49) 89-851-048-49; fax: 89-854-5652.

Tuck & PattiDream - Windham HillThe rich, earthy voice of Patti Cathcart animates thisrecording. This acclaimed duo-her husband's guitar play-ing is both rhythmic dynamo and musical ground-achievea small miracle of moody sublimity. Songs like her ownDream or the J. B. Lenoir/Willie Dixon tune Voodoo Musicnever stray from the groove, and the Jimmy Cliff classicSitting Here In Limbo builds from a ballad to a gospel -inspired declaration of faith. Good music from WindhamHill's Jazz series. Contact Frank van Houten on tel. (31)35-49970; fax: 49319.

Bireli LagreneAcoustic Moments - Blue NoteGuitarist Bireli Lagrene samples a variety of styles on thisrecording, from the Hot Club inspired Made In France tothe cool melancholy of Jaco Pastorius's Three Views Of ASecret. But Django's is the guiding spirit for Lagrene's con-siderable chops, even if somewhat transformed by a decid-edly eclectic, not to mention electric, sound. ContactRichard Peisac on tel. (33) 1 4604-9115; fax: 4605-8928

Cesarius Alvim

(ESA. IUS

ALVIM

Threefold - Label La LichereThis album is simply one of the best jazz recordings of theyear. Cesarius Alvim, a notable bassist, here plays pianowith an almost classical lyricism. Bass player Eddie Gomezmanages the difficult feat of letting the music fly while atthe same time keeping it firmly anchored in time. But thereal revelation is Eric Le Lann's commanding trumpet,which seems to have no stylistic limits. The three playersweave their music together so dexterously that even thestandards they play sound like brand new compositions.Check out Cole Porter's All Of You or Alvim's own Ladies'Blues. It is for releases of this quality that Label La Licherewon Jazz Magazine's Label of the Year award. ContactNelly Parent on tel. (33) 1 42 28 87 04; fax: 1 43 65 24 22.

STATION OPERATIONS

THE 11 AREAS OF AUDIENCE RESEARCH

How Research Improves Ratingsby Kurt Hanson

The typical US radio stationspends 30% - 40% of its annualrevenues on expenses that help itattract and maintain its audience.These expenses include advertis-ing, promotion, air talent, musicscheduling software, jingles, syndi-cated programs, contests, prizesand audience research. (The bal-ance of its revenues are devoted togeneral administrative expenses,the sales department, and, hopeful-ly, if the station has enough listen-ers, profits.)

Within the amount of moneythat is budgeted for items that buildlistenership, about 2% - 4% ofannual revenues are typically bud-geted for custom audienceresearch. Such stations believe thatby knowing the tastes of their lis-teners, they can construct and offera better product and achieve higherlevels of listenership in the future.

(In an upcoming column, I'lldescribe in more detail the specificresearch products and servicescommonly available in the US andCanada.)

There are 11 areas in whichaudiences research can help opti-mize your performance.

1 . Estimate formatpotential

More stations fail because they arein the wrong format than for anyother reason. I have seen stationsspend hundreds of thousands oreven millions of dollars (in thecase of Pirate Radio/Los Angeles)trying to get a station to a level ofsuccess that was just not possiblegiven the potential level of con-sumer interest in their format.

Several US research firms offersome type of "format search"study. The one we produce at

Strategic Radio Research is

unique in that it actually provides.long -run potential ratings estimatesfor up to five different formatsbased on interviews with up to2.000 consumers in a station's tar-get demographic.

We might learn, for example,that in the San Francisco market anew country station might be

expected to achieve a 3.5% audi-ence share (and a 7.1 % reach),whereas a new hard rock stationmight achieve a 2.1% share, a newjazz/new age station might achievea 2.4% share, a new oldies stationmight achieve 4.5% share, and anew adult urban station mightachieve a 4.7% share.

For each format we also showthe demographic profile of the sta-tion's likely future audience. Thehard rock aproach would show amuch younger profile, for exam-ple, than the oldies station.

With this information, you can

make an informed decision as towhich format to pursue. In Canada,station groups applying for rightsto a new FM frequency can presentthe format search results to thegovernmental body that evaluatesapplicants, showing the latent con-sumer demand for the program-ming they intend to provide.

2. Position your sta-tion effectively

Once you've selected the format,audience research can help youlearn how to describe that formateffectively to potential listeners.(See the book "Positioning: TheBattle For Your Mind" by Al Riesand Jack Trout for philosophybehind the importance of boilingdown the thrust of your marketingeffort to a single clear, cogentstatement.)

Research, for example, can tellyou whether your hard rock stationwould be more effectively posi-tioned as "All metal, all the time"or "The best of rock" or "Ten greatrock songs in a row every hour,guaranteed" or "From Anthrax tothe Zombies, your new rock lead-er" or "Dave Tyler in the morning,pure rock all day."

Chicago's new hard rock sta-tion, WWBZ, ("The Blaze") hasdebuted using the positioningstatement, "The Best of Rock."Although they are committinghundreds of thousands of dollars ofadvertising to support it, I believethe didn't use research to test thestatement. (Did that seem like thestrongest position to you of theexamples I offered in the previousparagraph?).

The Blaze's primary competi-tor, WCKG, was a failure fouryears ago using the position"Chicago Rock 'n Roll". It becamea significant success when it

switched to the positioning state-ment "Classic rock....with lesstalk." WCKG had research toknow to which statement their tar-get audience would respond mostfavorably.

3. Build a strongmorning show

In the US, there are two key day -parts: Mornings and everythingelse. For successful stations in

most formats, mornings are a cor-nerstone to their success.

Audience research that tracksthe performance of your morningshow on a week -to -week basis canbe invaluable in terms of design-ing, building and developing amorning show. A new morningshow that is a creative success willappear strong in a station's customweekly tracking research weeks (ormonths) before that success maybe reflected in ratings services.

Furthermore, quality research

can help you learn what specificelements your listeners like anddislike within your morning show.(Is the "Wacky Wake -Up Call"more popular than "AnsweringMachine Olympics"? Do listenerslike your traffic reporter? Yourmeteorologist? Your sports com-mentator?)

In terms of the information ele-ments on your morning show, seepoint 8 below.

4. Play the rightcurrent music

After morning drive is over, mostradio listeners listen to the radiobecause they want music in theirenvironment. Therefore, you wantto play the right music. And thefirst place to begin is with the titlesthat get played several times a day- your currents.

Even the best charts in theworld can only measure whichsongs program directors have cho-sen to add and/or which songs asmall percentage of consumershave chosen to buy. Charts areonly a very indirect measure of themusical tastes of the average radiolistener. Charts do not reveal thetastes of the average listener inyour city, much less those that lis-ten to your specific radio station.

Good quality music researchwill tell you three things: (a) howfamiliar a song is to your audi-ence; (b) how popular the song isamong those who know it; and (c)how fatigued the song is (whetherlisteners are getting tired of it).

Which new songs you add toyour playlist is part of the art ofradio programming. You use yourear, gut and experience (and per-haps that of fellow programmersyou respect) to decide which newrecords deserve airplay. After afew weeks of airplay, however,your listeners can tell you theyagree or disagree with you. That'swhen research becomes invaluable.

Research also allows you toknow when to quit playing a cur-rent record; typically, good songsare still popular with listenersweeks after they have fallen off theUS trade publications' charts.

5. Play the right oldiesJust as your listeners can tell youwhich current songs they like, theycan also tell which oldies they like.Play the songs they like, and theywill like your station more; listener -ship will go up. In the long run,your revenues should be higher.The research will pay for itself,probably several times over.

The majority of US stations thatuse music research test their entireoldies playlist at least twice a year.Some stations test their entireplaylist at once as part of a big pro-ject. Others are testing oldies con-

stantly throughout the year.

6. Play the rightmix of music

If you're playing the right currentsand the right oldies, you're onlytwo-thirds of the way towards opti-mising the music on your radio sta-tion. The final step is to make surethat you're playing various types ofmusic in desirable proportions.

For example, you want to playthe right ratio of old versus newmusic. (By "right", I mean ideal asdefined by the tastes of your targetaudience.).

You also want to play the rightproportions of various genres ofmusic. For an oldies station, youwant to play the right balance ofsongs from the '50s, '60s, and '70s.For an EHR station, you want toplay a desirable mix of dance, popand rock.

You can learn the ideal mix ofmusic by playing sample montagesto consumers, or by actually askingyour listeners to evaluate the soundof your radio station from week toweek as part of a program of ongo-ing research. Both techniques canbe helpful.

7. Hire the best airpersonalities

In all of your dayparts, not justmornings, you can use research tolearn which air personalities in

your market have sufficient "namevalue" to be worth paying a premi-um for.

You can also learn which ofyour station's air personalities playa significant role in your success.And, of course, you can learnwhich, if any, are actually costingyou listeners.

8. Fine-tune yourinformation elementsParticularly in morning drive, butin other dayparts as well, it's help-ful for you to know if you're satis-fying the information needs of yourlisteners.

Research can tell you whetheryou have a sufficient number ofnewscasts, weather forecasts trafficreports, sports updates, etc. You canalso learn the perceived quality ofthose elements.

9. Add other pro-gramming elements

Your station can be the home of"Two-fer Tuesdays", "Block Par-ties", "The All -Request LunchHour", "The Friday Night AlbumCountdown", "Lights Out [Lon-don]" or the "Midnight AlbumSide."

Audience research can help youin two ways: it can tell you whichproposed programming featuressound attractive to your target audi-ence, and it can tell you which of

your existing features are actuallyworking effectively for you.

10. Learn yourstrengths and weak-

nesses"Perceptual research" is the namethat covers all the various types ofresearch that help you learn whatlisteners perceive as your strengthsand weaknesses.

Very often a station that playsthe same number of commercialsas its competitor will be perceivedby its listeners as having an above -average or below -average spotload. There's a common old epi-gram, "Perception is reality", thatapplies here. If you are perceivedas having a problem (e.g., too manyspots, too much talk, too much rapmusic), it doesn't matter if it's nottechnically true; it's still an issueyou should address and fix.

With the right research, you canbuild your strengths, fix weakness-es, and take advantage of yourcompetitor's perceived weaknesses.

1 1 . Advertiseeffectively

Advertising is the single largest lineitem in the budgetstations, whether it's for TV adver-tising, direct mail, billboards orprint. And probably half of thoseexpenditures are money that's justthrown down the drain.

Very often stations will puthuge sums of money behind anmessage that either doesn't speak toconsumer needs or is communicat-ed in an unclear manner.

Good quality audience researchwill learn (a) which advertisingmessage would be most effectivefor your station, (b) whether yourproposed creative approach suc-ceeds in communicating that mes-sage to consumers, and (c) whetherlistening to your station actuallygoes up as a result of your advertis-ing campaign.

The stunt occurred during a"Confessions" feature when a

supposedly anonymous malecalled to report that he hadbeaten his girlfriend to death. As

prank, and who joined KROQlast October. KROQ parentInfinity Broadcasting insist theyknew nothing of the hoax, andfiled a 200 -page report with theFCC outlining effective em-ployee punishments.

Local authorities determinedthe time and money wasted ondetective investigation over the10 -month period to be 149 hours,worth $12.170. The three DJs willeach commit 149 hours to com-munity service, and will pay thefull amount themselves. For itspart, Infinity has offered to distri-bute to all US radio/TV stationspamphlets containing informationabout staying clear of hoaxes.

While the DJ -hosted entertain-ment and music program changesevery hour, the message tape re-peats itself each hour the store isopen. In essence, an advertiser re-ceives one 30 -second spot per hour,12 hours per day, in each store.

Recently, POP Radio signed anagreement with the New York -based national sales rep firmKatz Radio Group, which willsell POP Radio along with itsroster of 1.500 stations. Broad-casters will now be offered in-store, off -air promotions tied tothe POP Radio network, and thepotential generation of non-tradi-tional radio money increases withthe anticipated boost in agencypenetration.

OFF THE RECORD

Radio Hunger StrikeAt presstime, M&M learned thatPierre Bellanger, president ofFrench FM net Skyrock, had juststarted a hunger strike in a camp-ing car in front of the CSA build-ing. Bellanger is complainingabout CSA's attitude toward fre-quency allocations for Skyrock.

Just The Beginning?There's a growing feeling in theUK that the chart -hyping scandalcould be the tip of the iceberg andthat more questionable practicescould come to light soon. M&Mhas heard of one label MD sayingthe disclosure that three labelswere involved at the same timesignals that "something substan-tial is happening." The BPI haslevied fines of £50.000 againstPolyGram subsidiary LondonRecords and £5.000 againstRhythm King Records, whileinvestigations about VirginRecords are still pending.

tract set to expire this summer,says the company is "certainlyinterested" in bidding forRAJAR.

Continental Research hasalso said they intend to bid whenthe contract is put up for tenderlater this year (M&M May 25).Comments chairman John Cle-mens, "It is an exciting projectand we intend to tender for it."Continental carried out Atlantic252's audience survey and con-ducts cable/satellite TV research.

Arbitron, the US researchcompany, has sent a letter ofintent, but pulled out of a pro-posed partnership with TaylorNelson. "We are looking at otherpotential partners," says marketstrategy and planning VP ChrisMueller Spragg.

Other companies expressinginterest: NOP, RSL, MillerBrown and BRMB. The finalspecifications will be availableafter the Association of Indepen-dent Radio Contractors hasapproved the new RAJAR systemat its annual congress this month.

For The RecordIn last week's "INR1 FinancialOverview" by Trevor Morse(page 4), it should have beenstated that the Radio Clyde -ledconsortium could possibly gainthe most through operating outof existing studios in Glasgow,not in London, as was pub-lished. Also, Morse's remarksabout a light classical serviceshould have said that the smallerbut more upmarket audiencedelivered by this approach couldcommand a price premiumwhich would compensate for thehigher reach but demographical-ly less desirable audience deliv-ered by an easy listening or sim-ilar service.

US Group Likes IrishM&M has learned that Ameri-can Radio Ventures (ARV) ofWisconsin is reportedly talkingwith three radio stations in Ire-land about buying minoritystakes. We've has also heard thatTralee Investment Corporationof Dublin is also rumoured to beshopping around for acquisitions.However, any deal must beapproved by regulator LRTC,which earlier turned down effortsby Dublin station 98FM to buystakes in rural stations.

Menon Movement?Will Bhaskar Menon stand forre-election as IFPI chairmanwhen the board of the globaltrade group meets on June 12 inBudapest? M&M hears he willnot. The former EMI Music chieftook the post 12 months ago, andjust six months ago the IFPIopened an office in Los Angeles,where Menon lives.

hopefully by the beginning of1992." He adds that the productlines will not interfere with eachother, so there will be space torelease records by artists like(Intuition's) Theodorakis.

Jacoby notes, "In the nearfuture there will also be, apartfrom this umbrella group,VeraBra Songs (the company'spublishing arm, formerly knownas VeraBra Music), andVeraBra Tours."

The VeraBra label primarilyoffers jazz, including upcomingreleases by such groups as Ore-gon, Lounge Lizards, and pro-gressive avant-garde works byartists like Barbara Thompson.

American Clave's stable holdsKip Hanrahan, and steers moretowards blues and soul. A compi-lation of its material and back -catalogue product will be releasedin October. 101 South introduceseasy -listening artists from Cali-fornia, among them, the groupWindows.

Deals for Intuition are current-ly being negotiated for Japan andthe US. Its initial offeringsinclude Manfred Mann's newalbum Plain Music, Astor Piaz-zolla and Vince Jones's back cat-alogue.

The Go Jazz imprint, whichfocuses on material with vocalelements, is set to debut at theNorth Sea Jazz Festival nextmonth with a recording by RickyPeterson. VMG's Go Jazz mar-keting plans include an "all-star"tour with Ben Sidran, Petersonand Georgie Fame, as well as apromo CD featuring tracks fromthose artists, as well as from BobMalach.

Adds Jacoby, "We will also setup a pre -information system toretailers, developed bydirector/sales and marketingChristopher Diekmann.

Album Sales(continued from page 1)

revealed during the IFPI pressconference on April 15, mostGerman record companies hadanticipated that vinyl sales wouldbe stabilised by the inclusion ofthe sales statistics for the fivenew states where CD player pene-tration is only approaching 4%.

This, however, is not the case,indicating that consumers in the

formerly East German territoriesare switching to other configura-tions. Another possible explana-tion for the drop is that manyconsumers in those states are cur-rently facing a rather severefinancial situation in which morethan one million people are inimminent danger of losing theirjobs, which in turn drasticallyalters their buying behaviour.

Singles sales also continued todecline, dropping by 8.5% to 6.7million units.

In France, industry tradegroup SNEP says the state of themarket is "extremely worrying".Comments Patrick Zelnik, Vir-gin France and SNEP president,"After two years of rapid growthin 1988 and 1989, with rates over30%, the market slowed down in1990, with a 9.9% increase. 1991has started rather badly." SNEPhad forecasted a growth rate of5%.

Jean -Yves Mirski, in chargeof market studies at SNEP, saysthe figures reflect the overalleconomy in France since thebeginning of the year and the

negative impact of the Gulf War.Says Mirski, "The market is nowat a crossroads. We are still suf-fering from the effects of the situ-ation, and we have not yet recov-ered. Now the question is toknow if recovery will be there inthe near future."

For the first quarter, vinyl con-tinued its downward slide, drop-ping 78.9% to 0.6 million unitsshipped. Singles also fell as well,down 24.6% to 5.2 million units.One big surprise: cassette deliver-ies slipped 8.4% to 8.7 millionunits.

CD trade deliveries continuedto grow, up 20.3% for the quarterto 14.8 million units.

The results from France andGermany, along with earlier fig-ures released by the BPI in theUK, show that total music ship-ments have grown only 1.3% inEurope's three largest markets.Those countries account for about

. two-thirds of total Europeanmusic shipments. Album configu-rations in the three countries grew6.5% during the quarter.

The EHR Top 25 chart is based on a weighted -scoring system. Songs score points by achieving airplay at M&M's EHR reportingstations. Unlike M&M's European Airplay Top 50, which includes reports from stations serving a general audience, these stations target 12-34 year -old listeners with contemporary music fulltime or during specific dayparts. Songs in "A" rotation airplay receive more points thanthose in "B" rotation or more limited airplay exposure. Stations are weighted by market size and by the number of hours per week commit-ted to the format..

The EHR Tracking Report represents the simple, unweighted, total number of EHR reporting stations playing a song overall,how many stations have that song in either an "A" a "B" rotation, and how many new adds it has received. If the number of songs in "A" and "B"combined do not match the total station count, it is because some stations either hove reported it as part of album airplay or have not indicated it in"A" or "B" rotation yet. In the case of a tie, songs are listed by the number of stations reporting "A" rotations.

Airplay Action

It looks like EHR's soft period iscoming to an end. With only10 of the Top 25 receiving bul-lets this week, programmersseem to be looking for new andactive product, and indeed achange is in the wind. Proof ofthis can be seen in that no lessthan seven songs received atleast 10 new adds this week - anew M&M record.

While some things change,others remain the same:Roxette and the Bee Geeshave set new M&M chart lon-gevity records, having held in

the Top 25 for 14 weeks. How-ever, it appears that Rod Ste-wart, now in his 13th weekand still no. 2, will emerge as

by Machgiel Bakker

the most valuable and durableEHR hit of the first six monthsand possibly for all of 1991.

The Top 10 this week re-

mained mostly unchanged. Mi-chael Bolton anchors the no.

1 post for the second week,while the battle to unseat him isbrewing between Zucchero/Paul Young, Cher and AmyGrant, who reached no. 1 in

the US with Baby Baby and isnow receiving American air-play on her follow-up singleEvery Heartbeat.

Aside from Grant, the onlyother major mover this weekwas Gloria Estefan (12-181,which despite being tied for18th in total stations, is scoring

well in larger markets.Two records seem to be hard

to read: Cathy Dennis'sTouch Me and Simple Minds'See The Lights picked upseveral new adds, but an equalnumber of already -committedstations did not report them thisweek. Assuming that this air-play is re -reported, look forboth of these songs to expe-rience strong chart growth.

What's new and hot? Cry-stal Waters stands out as thisweek's only chart debut, andhaving been among the NewAdd Leaders for the secondstraight week, looks very promi-sing.
