Pop Definition Tightenedby Hugh Fielder & Paul Easton

Glenn Miller's Moonlight Sere-nade and As lime Goes By from thefilm "Casablanca" are now definedas pop music.

In a third clarification of "popmusic", the Radio Authority nowsays it includes any record whichhas featured in a singles chartsbroadcast on UK independent radioand BBC radio since 1960.

The latest move was outlined in aletter sent out by the Authority sta-

tes to applicants for the Indepen-dent National Radio (INR) FMstation. It states, "All singles re-cords which have been recorded orreleased with a view to enteringsuch charts; all single recordswhose contents are in a style which,in the opinion of the Authority,seem or seemed suitable for entry tosuch charts; and all records recor-ded on or after 1st January 1960which are, have been, or could belisted in the future in 'The GuinnessBook Of British Hit Singles' and

'The Billboard Hot 100 Book'."This new ruling also says appli-

cants will be required to devote atleast 75% of its musical output to"music other than pop".

Tim Schoonmaker, who is hea-ding up a possible bid by EMAPRadio, says the latest ruling willgive them some problems. "What itdoes is to make any format whichcan attract a substantial under -55audience very difficult. In the endwe may decide that it will not be acommercially viable opportunity."

Music Fills Government CoffersThe UK music industry contribu-ted nearly £790 million to thecountry's balance of payments in1988-89, based on the survey"Overseas Earnings Of The Arts"by the Economics AdvisoryGroup.

The £6 billion earned by the cul-tural sector "is on a par with ear-nings from the oil industry andamong Britain's leading invisibleearnings." according to Lord

Limerick, chairman of BritishInvisibles which represents servicecompanies whose export earningsare not traditionally covered in ba-lance of trade statistics.

The music industry contributionis up by 42% from the previoussurvey in 1984-85. One in four re-cords sold around the world is per-formed or produced by a UK artistand the report estimates that £486million was earned in royalties. HF

Breakthrough OutsideBroadcast For Piccadilly

by Andy Bantock

Piccadilly Gold/Manchester is be-lieved to have made history onMarch 19 when it broadcast a foot-ball match from France betweenManchester United and Montpelliervia an ISDN link. It is reportedlythe first time such a facility hasbeen used in a live situation.

This digital system enables sta-tions to mount national and interna-tional outside broadcasts usingsimple dial -up equipment, an alter-native to booking high -quality cir-cuits in advance. The new digitalsystem gives full 15kHz monoaudio (FM quality) over a near -stan-dard telephone circuit.

The new technology will elimi-nate the need for the majority of oc-casional -usage lines and some per-manent -usage lines, such as standby

links from the studio to transmitter.Comments Piccadilly pro-

gramme controller Mark Story,"We are very keen to expand oursports coverage, but up to now linecosts have been prohibitive. ISDNwill eventually offer us increasedflexibility for all our outside broad-cast coverage."

Piccadilly chief engineer SteveBarnes liaised with French techno-logy company XIS, which used itsWIM digital audio terminal systemto send the audio from Montpellierto Manchester. Standard BritishTelecom (BT) local ends are able tobe used over the relatively short dis-tances from local exchanges to

radio stations. Both BT and FranceTelecom were involved in this his-toric broadcast, a preview of what'sexpected to be introduced formallyby the end of the year .

INSIDE SOVIET RADIO

Europa Plus Celebrates 1 Yearby Jacqueline Eacott

Europa Plus Moscow is about tocelebrate its first year on the air and10 million listeners are invited tothe party.

The Soviet Union's first privatestation in Moscow, which debutedApril 30, 1990, already has 53% ofMoscow's 20 million listeners tunedin, according to a GosteleradioCentre of Research & PublicOpinion poll.

Since its launch, the station hasbeen regularly broadcastingRussian -language programmes witha team of Soviet DJs and techni-cians. Musically, the station is mo-delled after Europe 2 in France. Asample from the playlist includesartists ranging from Madonna andNew Kids On The Block toRenaud and Vaya Con Dios. Thestation airs about four French songsan hour and now broadcasts 23hours daily, 19 hours on FM from06.00-01.00 and four hours on AM.

The Europa Plus France con-sortium, which operates the station,consists of Europe 1 (34%), GPT(33%), Part' Com (23%) andPrecom/Ouest France (10%). Thatconsortium has 51% of EuropaPlus USSR, the holding companywhich owns Europa Plus Moscow.The other 49% is owned byGosteleradio.

To date, the French group has in-vested more than Ffr2million (app.US$390.000) to equip the Moscowstudios and to train a staff of 30.Two studios have been opened,using such equipment as Studer A-730 CD players, cart -playing ma-chines, a Sovno Craft SAC -200mixing board and Amcron ampli-fiers.

Comments Europa Plus Moscowprogramme director and directorgeneral Andrei Anissenko, "Thereis nothing like that in the wholeSoviet Union. Nobody plays musicfrom CDs here; nor do they takecart technology. People didn't evenhear about them."

Adds consortium head GeorgesPolinski, "French technicians spendaround eight days a month in theMoscow studios. The Sovietshandle everything else themselves."

Polinski's faith in the project isconfirmed by the results of theGosteleradio poll, the first for thestation. That survey, conductedJanuary 22-25 and involving 520listeners, showed that Europa PlusMoscow was the no. 1 stationamong 15-29 year olds, ahead ofstate Radio Mayak (exact figureswere not made available).

Overall, the station has a recogni-tion factor of 69%.

After watching the success inMoscow, Europa Plus USSR re-cently opened a second Soviet sta-tion.

"We have been broadcastingfrom the Palais de Hermitage inLeningrad since January 12, from07.00-01.00," explains Polinski. "Atpresent, the programmes are co -

ming from the Moscow studio, butthe Leningrad station hopes to startproducing its own programmes insummer." The shows go out to a po-tential audience of six million.

The Soviet government has beenhands-off with the station. "We aregetting along well with all politicalmovements in our country becausewe are apolitical. We don't bear anyideology, we're a music station, soeven some top officials have beenlistening to us," says Anissenko.

While advertising has not beenpouring in, the station is at leastpaying the bills. Details Anissenko,"We thought we wouldn't be pro-fitable for at least three years. But,somewhat unexpectedly, we got or-ders and are able to pay all our dailyexpenses: bills for lease, electricity,etc."

The station's advertisers include

banks, cinemas, video companiesand the newspaper Pravda. Fees forWestern advertisers are currentlyFfr3.000 for a 30 -second spot(Ffr5.000 for 60 seconds) onEuropa Plus Moscow and half thatfor the Leningrad station.

Although disappointed by theslow reactions of French andEuropean companies to advertise,Polinski says he is confident that hisnumerous projects can withstandpressures, such as the recent reu-nion referendum in the USSR. Heassures, "The results of the referen-dum will not make any difference toour operations."

Besides operating the stations,the Europa Plus group is involvedin an increasing number of jointventures. These include manufactu-ring one million FM radios (stam-ped with the Europa Plus logo) and

1.000 FM personal stereos a month.The hardware, which is produced inseveral converted military plants,should be on the market this spring.The group is also involved in manu-facturing radio adapters that willallow Western radio sets to receiveSoviet FM stations.Nikolai Kovarsky and Vadim Ywrhenkov also

Benson Forms UKROInvestment GroupA new finance company hasbeen formed by a group ofbroadcasters and financiers withthe aim to invest in UK radiostations.

Called UK Radio Develop-ments (UKRD), the company isled by 42 -year -old AustralianPeter Benson, who was behindthe launch of Classic Hits98FM/Dublin. The board alsoincludes former BBC TV direc-tor of programmes PeterIbbotson; its chairman is RogerPincham CBE.

Company secretary PeterSmith said the company was

capitalised at £5.1 millionthrough the directors and share-holders. A substantial numberof shares are being reserved forwhen .the company obtains astake in a licensed station.

UKRD is concentrating itsefforts on local licences andwill not be joining the biddersfor Independent NationalRadio.

year there have been two albums inparticular which have really hel-ped." Both the Sweet Dreamssoundtrack by Patsy Cline and theMark Knopfler/ Chet Atkinsalbum Neck And Neck crossed overto the pop charts, taking countrymusic into the mainstream.

BBC, AIRC Talks LeadTo New RADAR Plan

by Julian Clover

A new "SuperJICRAR" audiencesurvey system is emerging fromtalks between the AIRC and theBBC. A new joint association cal-led RADAR (Radio Joint AudienceResearch) is planned, which willuse a diary -based analysis.

Comments AIRC marketingexecutive James Galpin,"Although there will be differenceswith the present system, the basicmethodology will be that of JI-CRAR."

The future of a shared surveyhad fallen into question when thecombined system looked moreexpensive to operate than the twoalready in existence. The basicsystem will continue to be quar-terly, although additional repor-ting will allow the BBC to gainstatistics on monthly fluctuations.

Adds Galpin, "The BBClooked at their information anddowngraded it, obtaining thesame details from less diaries.The sums suddenly added up, andalthough the cost to independent

radio contractors is likely to bethe same as the present system,they will benefit from access tomore detailed information."

98FM Increases DublinShare; RTE 1 Still Tops

by Julian Clover

Classic Hits 98FM continuesto move ahead in the Dublinmarket, turning in the only in-crease in listening share in thearea among the top five sta-tions. 98FM's share rose twopoints to 27%, based on the la-test audience data from JointNational Listener Research(JNLR) released March 4.

The survey, compiled by theMarket Research Bureau ofIreland on behalf of JNLR,covers both public broadcas-ters RTE and the private sta-tions.

State broadcaster RTE 1 stillremains the market leader bothnationally and in Dublin, with49% and 46% shares, respecti-vely. But those are still downfrom the previous period.

Comments JNRL secretaryJim Nolan, "The rate ofgrowth is lower than somewould have expected, but somelocal stations have overtakenRTE 2."

Private national broadcasterCentury 100 is claiming a risein weekly listenership, but thismostly can be attributed to anincrease in its coverage area.Century's coverage now standsat 80% of the country. Centuryis confident that following pro-gramme alterations, it is nowon an upward trend.

Researchers interviewed5.950 people between Apriland December on a "listenedyesterday" basis.

International ActsKey For TremaLeading French independent pro-duction company Trema kicksoff 1991 with fresh blood. The22 -year -old company founded byMy Way composer JacquesRevaux and partner Regis Talarhas been reshaped with new facesand an additional sub -label.

Key person to this policy isnewly appointed GM CatherineRegnier, responsible for A&R,marketing and promotion. Herambition is to expand Trema'smarket share to reach the scopeof Virgin France within the nextthree years. That would make thecompany three times its currentsize.

Regnier says that one way toincrease Trema's French marketshare is to sign international acts,something the company has notlone.

"To really mean something on:he market, we have to acquire aninternational catalogue," saysRegnier.

Trema grossed about Ffr150Trillion (app. US$29 million) lastyear. Regnier has a yearly pro-iuction budget of Ffr12 millionand a marketing budget of Ffr15Trillion.

The Trema roster includestnimo, Les Infideles, LaurentVIorain, Blondin (nominee forrest new act at the 1991Victoires de la Musique), actor

and singer Lambert Wilson andNat Buffo.

New albums from MichelSardou are planned, as well asSerge Reggiani, CatherineLara, African band ToureKunda, Michel Delpech, Bibie,Charles Aznavour and a newversion of the musical LesMiserables plus Canadian artistssigned to Trafic. Such acts getlittle airplay on FM stations; theyare played mainly on AM stationssuch as RTL.

Comments Regnier, "I amlucid enough to know there is anew way of working with FMstations and I will not fit withtheir formats. On the other hand,our FM -orientated internationalproducts have more chances to beplayed.

"I hope FM stations will en-large their playlist to new acts. Itis ironic to see that AM stations,often considered dinosaurs, arethese days the real starters of newacts."

Regnier also emphasises thecompany's export policies. Shesays, "Too often in France wehave forgotten this side of the bu-siness but we cannot ignoreEurope. Having an export policyis essential. France now has art-ists that can export. Artists haveto realise there are other marketsthan just France." EL

OK Steps Up Music TestingWith last August's format changefrom contemporary rock to EHRand encouraging InfratestDecember ratings behind it, pri-vate station OK Radio/Hamburgis now emphasising music re-search.

OK Radio GM Ingo Borsumhas been conducting in-housemusic research in co-operation withNuremberg -based consulting com-pany BCI. "We are now in the thirdtest phase," explains Borsum, whois confident OK Radio will achieveits goal of becoming number onewith 14-29 year olds- in Hamburgthis year. Infratest's December sur-vey gave the station a 30% list-enership among 14-29 year olds.

"We are doing daily in-housetesting on all titles in rotation withat least 100 randomly chosen list-eners. BCI is carrying out researchwith our entire archive, using 200to 300 listeners in our target au-dience.

"But we do not ask just aboutthe titles. We are also inquiringabout listening habits and favou-rite stations. The statistics wecompiled throughout February in-dicate that OK Radio had 30% ofthe listeners. That is the same asRadio Hamburg [RHH]."

Explaining the reason for theextensive research, Borsum says,"German radio often suffers fromthe strong influence of the record

companies and the tendency ofsome German programmers to re-flect their own personal taste toostrongly.

"But we are a service organisa-tion, the middle point between list-eners and advertising clients. Whatthe listener likes and wants mustbe the basis of programming deci-sions."

Borsum says OK Radio alsoplays the most titles per hour (15 )in its area. "By playing songs foran average of three minutes wecan offer our listeners more diver-sity than RSH; or RHH, whichplays 12 songs per hour; orNDR2, which plays from 10 to12." RL

Radio Köln PoisedFor May Launch

by Mal Sondock

Cologne's first private radio sta-tion, Radio Köln, is finalisingplans for its scheduled Maylaunch. The station will featurean MOR-based AC format withschlager, oldies, magazine featu-res and hourly newscasts.

Comments Radio Köln chiefeditor Uwe Sporl, "We will pro-gramme about eight hours a dayourselves, and will include up toone additional hour of 'people'sradio'. Here listeners can submittheir own programmes to a spe-cial board which decides whichprogrammes are aired.

"The remaining 15 hours willcarry the sustaining service of re-gional network station RadioNRW. Radio NRW will provide

playlists and DAT tapes for ourentire music programme. Theonly time we choose our ownmusic is when we have an artistinterview.

"We have strong competitionin Cologne with public stationsWDR and SWF and RPR/NorthRhine -Palatinate also beaming in.However, we hope to attain a20% listener share with our localapproach."

Radio Köln is owned 75% by ajoint venture between Verlag M.Dumont/Schauberg and HeinenVerlag, and 25% by the gas andelectricity board. The publishinggroup also owns HorfunkService, which will handle thestation's sales. The station willoperate with 400 watts on the fre-quencies 89.6 and 107.1.

Radio NRW PlansAffiliate ExpansionRadio Köln is just one of the la-test stations to sign up for RadioNRW/North Rhine-Westphalia'snetwork programming feed. Thenetwork, which started in April 1,1990, currently serves 30 sta-tions, with 30 more planned.

The network is co -owned bylocal newspaper publishers, asso-ciations and local businesses.Programming is currently con-trolled by a committee of publicservice interest groups and citycouncils. Reportedly, the stategovernment chose such a systemto avoid local media monopotysituations.

Comments Radio NRW GMHelmut Bauer, "The system al-lows us to programme withoutthe usual pressure from ownersand advertisers.

"Much of our broadcastingtime is community service -orien-ted in addition to news and enter-tainment. We are financially de-pendent on advertising income,and if we had to compete withother private broadcasters itwould be difficult.

Local stations are managed by

a chief editor rather than a pro-gramme director. Music is pro-grammed in Oberhausen, whereplaylists and digital audio tapes(DAT) are provided to the localstations.

Each station determines theamount of local programmingbroadcast, and the rest of the dayis covered by a sustaining ser-vice. Radio NRW will not usecall letters on -air, in order to pre-serve local station identity.Explains Bauer, "We have justcompleted tests in the first mar-kets where our local radio sta-tions have become established.We finished ahead of three of thefour WDR radio channels."

The network flagship station isowned to 55% by a publishinghouse, 30% by public broadcasterWDR and 15% by the privately-owned Bertelsmann group.

Nationwide sales for the re-gional network station are hand-led by Radio MarketingServices (RMS). Local sales arehandled by regional agencies,often owned by the station own-ers. MS

RTL DJs GetMarketing Lesson

Bergamo -based national privatestation RTL 102.5 Hit Radiohas signed a consultancy dealwith the research instituteDatamedia. The intention is tosharpen the marketing aware-ness of DJs at the station.

Comments DI/producerGrant Benson. "The problemwith DJs in general-andItalian ones in particular-isthat there is a lot of enthusiasm,but not much knowledge ofmarketing and its related fields.We want to make our DJs thinktwice about the, effectiveness ofwhat they are saying, doing andhow they come across in termsof marketing."

Benson says that since a

commercial radio station is a

mai keting vehicle, everybodyinvolved at the front end should'lave rudimentary ideas aboutmarketing.

"Certain phrases a DJ mayuse on air could in fact bemajor turn-off factors." com-ments Benson. "We choose to

work with Datamedia becausewe did not want any US -basedcompany telling us about mar-keting habits and trends in Italy.Datamedia is dynamic and. alt-hough it uses US methodology.it has its fingers on the pulse ofItalian reality."

Datamedia will monitor thestation and give opinions onperformance. It will also pro-vide information on listeners'habits. Datamedia will visit thestation at regular intervals todiscuss methods of improve-ment with each DJ.

Says Benson, "If, for ex-ample, we found that betweenseven and eight in the morning90% of our listeners were tu-ning in on the undergroundwith their personal stereos, wewould obviously try to createprogramming which was suita-ble for them. We want to followour noses a little bit with pro-gramming, but we also wanttechnical data to back up ourhunches." DS

Radio Raves AboutMore House MusicItaly is rapidly becoming a hotbed forhouse music rave parties and radiostations are playing their part in thegrowing phenomenon. R&B stationRadio Centro Suono/Rome first

backed a rave on December 1 last

year which featured US DJ and re-cording artist Frankie Bones.

Now the rave organisation Dy-namic Groove And The Phuture isplanning a new series of events cal-led "The Deepest Sound Of NewYork". It will feature US acts such asBobby Condors, Kim Mazell,Frankie Knuckles, MarshallJefferson and Dave Moral's.

RAI DJ and dance critic Luca deGennaro is involved in the organisa-tion. "Radio Centro Suomi advertisesthe raves in exchange for having itslogo on all tickets and posters. Weguarantee an exclusive interviewwith each US artist and the stationalso broadcasts a segment from theartist's performance at the rave."

Meanwhile, Radio Centro Suonohas introduced the new all-nightprogramme "Centro Suono Rave".Broadcast Saturdays from 21.00-05.00, it is presented by AndreaTorre and Luca Cucchetti. Theprogramme also features pre-recor-ded music presentation slots frominternational DJs and musicians.These include Norman Cook andPaul Oakenfold from the UK andUS artist Bobby Condors.

Comments station programme di-rector Alberto Castelli, "It is a bigopportunity for the station to presentartists like Norman Cook. Theyhave complete creative freedomwith their segments." DS

RAI REFORMATS STEREO DUE

Motorist Info ChosenOver Pop Music

by David Stansfield

State broadcaster RAI is to closeits pop music station RAI StereoDue. Starting on April 1 the sta-tion will concentrate on informa-tion for motorists, although somemusic content will be retained. Nonew name could be confirmed atpress time, but industry sourcessuggest it may be called AutoRAI.

RAI Stereo Uno, the otherstate-owned pop station, will beretained. From next month, itsname will be changed to StereoRAI.

Stereo RAI programme directorEodele Bellisario says the station

will target diverse audiences.Afternoons will be devoted toEHR. Early evening programmeswill include classical music.AOR and new releases will befeatured from 21.00-24.00. Theregular night programme "StereoNone" will continue its regularslot until 06.00, but will benamed "Stereo RAI".

Bellisario admits he is not to-tally happy with the new situ-ation. "I believe we should havedeveloped both RAI Stereo Unoand Due into 24 -hour music sta-tions. But the new broadcast leg-islation does not allow us thepossibility of having two suchstations. The law seems to favour

the private broadcast sector inthis respect."

RAI Stereo Uno has an aver-age daily audience of 825.000(Audiradio), giving it a 1.6% na-tional share. RAI Stereo Due has1.02 million daily listeners, a

2.0% national share.The state broadcaster also has

plans to restructure its non -stereostations in an effort to win backaudiences. With a national au-dience share of 48.6% in 1985,the total number of listeners to allsix RAI stations has declined to45.7% (13.4 million) during1990. The daily figures for theprivate broadcast sector amountto 15.9 million- a 54.2% share.

Full Time Debuts Label;PolyGram Joins DanceMilan -based indie records com-pany Full Time is poised tolaunch a new label called DanceClassics.

A double LP titled DanceClassics 12 inc. 12 is the first in aseries of records. To be releasedin late April, the album will fe-ature a. dozen 12" mixes. The LPwill be distributed by PolyGramwhich has four of its own artistsincluded on the first release.

Private radio stations Rete 105,Radio Monte Carlo and 105Classic will be promoting the

albumtising campaign. Also, the logo ofthe gold station 105 Classic willappear on all product. The ow-ners of the stations will receive apercentage of the profits fromsales.

The songs provided by FullTime are taken from the CanadianUnidisc catalogue which thelocal firm licences exclusively inItaly. Full Time president FrancoDonato has insisted for sometime that dance classics from the'60s and '70s will be popular in

Europe. He plans to release twomore compilations before the endof the year and will try to cash inon the Christmas market by rel-easing all three as a box set.PolyGram has the option of rele-asing all Dance Classics producton the European market.

Donato is backing the new pro-ject with merchandising and willalso be launching a series of '60sdisco parties throughout Italy thissummer. The parties will featurefamous DJs from both past andpresent. DS

Ariston Relaunches LabelIndependent record and publish-ing company Ariston has recentlyreactivated its music business, ha-ving spent the last few years con-centrating efforts on its recordpressing plant.

The firm has opened new offi-ces in Milan and presidentAlfredo Rossi has appointedSandro Delor as MD. Delor has30 years' experience with the rec-ord company CGD.

Other new staff include Bob

Lumbroso, responsible for inter-national repertoire. Andrea Rossiand Fermo Tonali are heading thepromotion and A&R departments.

One of Ariston's first releaseswill be an Italian -language albumby major French artist ClaudeBarzotti. The company also plansto release product by two, as yetunnamed, local newcomers.

Delor is keen to get involvedwith the international market. "Wewill be searching for small labels

who want to license their productthrough Ariston for the local mar-ket. We are also aiming to buy andsell in both fields of our business."

Delor says a major reason forthe Ariston relaunch is the boomin locally produced music. "Saleshave risen radically on the domes-tic market over the last couple ofyears. And local artists like PaoloConte, Eros Ramazzotli andFabrizio D'Andre are enjoyinggreat international success." DS

More Pop MusicFor Denmark's P3

by David Rowley

Danish public broadcasterDanmarks Radio (DR) plans tointroduce more pop music atradio station P3.

The change is part of a broaderplan for the service, arising fromhopes that DR will get permissionfor a fourth national channel(M&M July 14). This proposal iscurrently only at parliamentarycommittee stage, but if approvedcould be implemented by January1, 1992.

DR deputy director of pro-gramming Knud Ebbesen saysthe aim is to move P3-currentlypositioned as a "light" music sta-tion-towards a more contempor-ary sound. He admits that a gene-ration of young people havegrown up listening to private sta-tions rather than DR, which hesays is generally seen as the driestof the Scandinavian public broad-casters.

Comments Ebbesen, "If youlook at the 15-30 age group, ourshare of that market is just toolimited. We are a public serviceorganisation and as such we can-

not afford to forget that very im-portant sector. We have told thestaff organisations discussing thechanges that we want to caterspecifically to this group."

Within DR, three separate wor-king parties are currently study-ing the possible changes. Underthe proposals, PI is likely to re-main largely as a cultural and talkstation.

P2, currently devoted to classi-cal music, is likely to take moreserious music, jazz and specialistareas such as world music andnon -mainstream rock. It wouldalso carry regional programming,and if approved, the new P4would be spun off from this net-work.

P3 would then be aimed moretightly at the 15-30 demographic,particularly during the 15.00-21.00 daypart, says Ebbesen.

But despite this new commit-ment to youth programming, herules out a predominately popstation competing directly withthe burgeoning private stations,or the introduction of back-to-back music programming.

Both DR and several private

operations have already appliedto operate the fourth national fre-quency. But at this stage, thegovernment has indicated theissue is not high on the politicalagenda.

"We think the government hasto grant the licence before 1992to avoid the entry of foreign ope-rators," says Ebbesen, referringto the implementation of theSingle European Market. "Localradio stations will soon begin tooperate nationally through net-working, ahead of the law, but wedo not want to compete with that.If we tried and did not get at leasthalf of that [15-301 audience, po-liticians would start to ask whywe are getting the level of fun-ding that we do."

Finland TightensLicensing Policy

by Kari Helopaltio

Faced h\ increasing recessionin the industry, Finland's mi-nistry of communications hastightened its licensing policy forlocal private radio. In the latestround of applications, onlythree new broadcasting licenceshave been granted, with 13 re-quests rejected. The new opera-tions are to be located in Lohja,Kuusamo and Kittila.

The ministry estimates thatabout 30% of privates face se-rious financial difficulties, andabout half the stations are ba-rely breaking even. This leavesonly a handful of successfuloperations.

In a statement on the issue,the ministry says that, "In futurewe must concentrate on better-

ing conditions for stations alre-ady on air. No more new licen-ces will be granted for the timebeing."

In line with this policy, 18

stations across the country havebeen given permission to ex-tend their service areas. In theHelsinki area, where two sta-tions have gone bankrupt in thepast five months, these includeRadio Ettan, Radio Lohi,Radio Kolme and EtelanAani.

Local stations have welco-med the move, but claim thatfurther concessions are requiredto secure their position. Thesecould include dropping thedomestic production quota fromthe current 75% minimum to aslow as 25%, and allowing morenetworking.

Swedish Ad Ban Goes To UNSweden's ban on radio advertisingis to be debated by the UnitedNations Human Rights Com-mittee. Internationalhip organisation Article 19 plansto present a report to theCommittee on March 27, callingon the Swedish government to re-view its attitude to commercialradio.

The 11 -page document focuseson many aspects of freedom of ex-pression in Sweden and is part of aroutine review of these rights un-dertaken three times yearly by theHuman Rights Committee.

But while the report generallysupports Sweden's media laws-in

particular its freedom -of -the -presssafeguards-it is critical of the1982 Local Radio Act which pro-hibits advertising on Naerradio sta-tions.

The report says, "In spite of thegovernment's impending approvalof advertising on TV, no such re-laxation of the rules regarding ad-vertising on radio appears likely inthe near future."

Highlights of the report are: Whether the prohibition of alladvertising is necessary to ensurethe community character of localradio; Whether the prohibition of ad-vertising deprives local stations of

revenue needed to produce qualityprogramming; and, Whether some other methodof regulation such as governmentsubsidy or limited advertisingmight be appropriate.

The document will be discus-sed by the 18 -member HumanRights Committee in New York onMarch 27, 28. It is expected thatthe Swedish representative at themeeting will be asked to answerthe charges raised in the report.

Members of the committee aredrawn from countries which haveratified the International Cove-nant on Civil and PoliticalRights. DR

Spain's biggest private radiogroup, 235 -station CadenaSER, brought together thecountry's top stars on March 7for its annual awards ceremony.The event, which took place ina Madrid night club, is the high-light of the industry's year.

For the past 15 years theawards have been presented bySER FM network Los 40Principales' pop programme"La Gran Musical". DJ JoseAntonio Abelian announcedthis year's winners and prizeswere presented by "La GranMusical" editor and 40Principales director RafaelRevert. The 90 -minute cere-mony was transmitted live onthe network's 61 stations.

Among the four acts whichperformed were AzucarMoreno, who representedSpain in last year's EurovisionSong Contest with Bandido.

Spanish awards went toRadio Futura (best LP),Miguel Bose (male singer), ElUltimo de la Fila (Spanishsound), Duncan Dhu (live act),Tennessee (vocal group), LaUnion (group), Mecano (inter-national projection), LaGuardia (singer), AzucarMoreno (disco sound), Heroes

Religion Boost For CopeSpain's Catholic bishops are pois-ed to inject a powerful dose ofChristian ideology into the count-ry's second -biggest radio group,the 120 -station network CadenaCOPE, which is 80% owned bythe Episcopal Conference.

The Conference gave the greenlight to the draft report "IdeologyCOPE" in early March and ag-reed to discuss the plan in April.The move comes amid two grow-ing problems: increasing concernamong some bishops aboutCOPE's alleged drift away fromthe Christian message, and com-plaints from the socialist govern-ment about some of COPE'snews items.

A Conference statement said itwas concerned about COPE's"raison d'etre, its aims and theprofessional and ethical commit-ments it must confront". It added"questions concerning its editorialline and internal liberty were alsodiscussed. Special attention wasgiven to the time set aside to reli-gious programming and to thelinks with the (Catholic) Church."

Comments Episcopal Confer-ence secretary Bishop AgustinGarcia-Gasco, "The owner's in-terests have not been manifestedin some programmes. It's not aquestion of raising altars or pul-pits, but the Church wants to re-spond to a substantial imperativeto proclaim the gospel."

The bishop's main problem isto balance COPE's commercialneeds with its religious duty. Thenetwork, with 74 FM and 46 AMstations, made a Pta2.25 billion(app. US$23 million) profit in1989.

The conference's representa-tive at COPE, Bishop BernardoHerraez, admitted that in deci-ding between profit and ideology,the bishops chose ideology.

"It's logical that those whomark out the lines of COPEshould be the owners, isn't it?"asked Herraez. "What happens isthat for this moral evaluation oflife to be heard, COPE musthave an audience and be com-mercial. And to be commercialone must be tolerant and have

good professionals who have tobe paid."

COPE's director/religious andsocial programming Padre JoseLuis Gago said that what the bis-hops proposed was normal. "Thebishops know a radio networkcovering all of Spain is a massmedium that must compete on aprofessional and commerciallevel," he said. "Without this, themost sublime and noble aim willnot reach its audience."

Padre Gago added, "Once thisquality and social presence areachieved, COPE will be in an un-beatable position to transmit themessage that justifies its exis-tence. At COPE that message isthe Christian concept of life,man, the world and history."

He said this is done in twoways, with explicitly Christianprogrammes and implicitly in therest of the programmes. "But wehave never seen COPE as aRadio Vatican or Radio NotreDame. It is a medium secular inits professionality and ecclesiasti-cal in its ideological concept." HL

Jean -Jacques LafonLes Armies Caroline - GriffeWith the participation of the lovelyNathalie Carson and a smooth rockin' gui-tarist, Lafon sings his way to "le plafond"(the top).

Lisa LuxLet's Have A Party - Red BulletNot to be confused with Wanda Jackson'srock & roll classic, this is a house party.Everybody's invited, dance programmersincluded.

Milltown Brothers

Which Way Should I Jump? - A&MREM are soon to meet serious competitionfrom this new UK band. Hopefully theywill jump into the charts with this reallycatchy pop tune. Taken from their sensa-tional debut album Slinky.

Papa DeeBeautiful Woman (Love Supreme) - AristaHe used to be with the StoneFunkers be-fore he embarked on a solo career. PapaDee's superior raggamuffin' rapping wasalready featured on the Titiyo single AfterThe Rain.

The River BoysIf I Were A Sailor - WEAGerman duo provide harmony vocals likeSimon & Garfunkel used to do way backwhen. MOR programmers tune in.

The Rolling StonesHighwire - ColumbiaStill controversial after all these years --that is a compliment in itself. This anti-war song sounds as if it was recorded inthe days of Exile On Main Street.Richards's mean guitar riff underpinsJagger's biting vocals. No DJ can possiblydeny the strong impact of it.

ALBUMS

808 StateEx:El - ZTT/WEAThe masters of electro house smashing 13tracks In Yer Face, disciplined as if they wereKraftwerk themselves. Despite being mono-tonous, this is as equally fascinating.

Brand NubianOne For All - ElektraNot just another rap group. Brand Nubian tryhard to be different and they succeed nicely.Wake Up, the first single, is typical of theirenergy and approach. Concert In X Minor,with its horns and African rhythms, is evenbetter, perhaps even a classic. Socially -cons-cious lyrics drive all the cuts on this unusualeffort.

Julian CopePeggy Suicide - IslandMankind can't cope with big issues like thegreenhouse effect. So thinks Julian Cope,who has a vision of Mother Earth, an enor-mous goddess about to jump off the highestcliff of infinity. She had nearly given up onmankind with its destruction of the environ-ment. That's why Cope calls her PeggySuicide. Dance your way to the end of theworld on East Easy Rider. A highly impres-sive and inspired topical album.

The Escape Club$ Dollars And Sex - WEAThree years after their debut album wentgold, this UK quartet gives us another finelyproduced dance/funk groove. Intriguing mu-sical textures and high energy make eventheir ballads interesting and soulful. Call ItPoison is the single off this dance album withsubstance, but The Edge Of Your Bed orShout The Walls Down are equally listenable.

Dolly PartonEagle When She Flies - ColumbiaRiding on the Country Road again, withEmmylou Harris and Patti Loveless on har-mony vocals. No half-hearted reggae or popsideways, this is by far her purest countryalbum in years. The duet with LorrieMorgan. Best Woman Wins, makes clear thatLa Parton still beats them all.

REMOut Of Time - Warner BrothersApart from using guest vocalists, nothing hasreally changed on their new album. Just an-other classic album by one of the most im-portant bands of our time. Losing MyReligion is a beautiful single. The duet ShimHappy People, featuring the currently much -in -demand B -52's singer Kate Pierson, is he-aven on earth. Radio Song with rapper KRS-1 is destined for airplay on all formats.

The Silencers

Dance To The Holy Man - RCATheir intriguing blend of bold, driving popwith the droning tones of Scottish folk shouldfinally bring the band some long overdue re-cognition. Bulletproof Heart, with its ChrisRea -styled guitar licks and the catchy whist-ling, is ideal for both album rock and EHR pro-grammers. Also recommended: the easy roc-king HeyMr: Bankmanager and the LP's mostblatant commercial tune, This Is Serious (pro-grammer's note: fade out after 4:08 seconds).

ValentineValentine - GiantA more than competent power quintet. Theirdebut album for Giant is distinguished byfine vocals and solid interplay between guita-rist Adam Holland and drummer NeilChristopher. Keyboards add a rare melodiclustre to an all too often hackneyed hard -rockformat. Once In A Lifetime gives a good ideaof this Long Island band's sound.

Various ArtistsBrazil Classics 3 - Warner BrothersAlthough this album is trading on a musicalstyle already featured on Globestyle's MusicFor Maids And Taxidrivers from 1989,David Byrne's sampler takes the "Forro"music one step further. With the addition ofhorns, synthesizers and electric guitars, thisaccordion -driven, foot -stomping music fromNortheast Brazil is pushed more mainstream.

RoxetteSweden's most important musical export article these days is Roxette.

Their previous album "Look Sharp" (1988) sold more than five millioncopies worldwide and reached no. 11 in the European Top 100 Albums in

1989. On April 8 they will release their third album, "Joyride", on theEMI -owned Parlophone label.

by Robbert Tilli

Roxette rocketed their way to interna-tional fame with the 1989 world hit TheLook. In their homeland Sweden PerGessle and Marie Fredriksson were alre-ady well established. Gessle used to be inthe band Gyllene Tider, who sold overtwo million records in Scandinavia.Fredriksson achieved her claim to fame asa solo artist, and recorded three albums.In a way they owe very much to anotherfamous duo, Eurythmics. Just like thoseBritish hit makers, Roxette also deliver in-telligent modern pop songs, accessible anddanceable at the same time. Good groovesand great melodies. They see themselvesas probably the only bridge between TomPetty and Paula Abdul, bringing the '60sinto the '90s. The first single off the newalbum, the title track, released on February25, is a perfect example of their pop sensi-bilities. At press time it is charted in theUK at no. 11, Germany (no. 18), Holland(no. 18), Belgium (no. 42), Sweden (no.1), Switzerland (no. 10), Ireland (no. 13),Norway (no. 1) and Finland (no. 2). It is atno. 2 in the ERR Top 25 after two weeks.

The CD and cassette version of the newalbum contain 15 songs, the vinyl versiononly 12. The new LP is far more rock -gui-tar orientated than before. Apart from theusual up -tempo material, melancholic bal-lads are also provided (Fading Like AFlower (Every Time You Leave) andSpending My Time. The track Soul Deep isa remixed version of the song-a hit inSweden-that appeared on their 1986

debut album Pearls Of Passion.The album was recorded at the EMI

Studios in Stockholm with guitarist JonasIsacsson and produced by ClarenceOfwerman.

EMI Sweden head of promo MarieDimberg says, "It is the biggest releasewe've ever had. In Sweden we expect tosell 200.000 copies, which is double plati-num." According to EMI Music Europeartist development manager Peter Holdenthe release marks a priority for EMI on aworldwide basis. "The project will proba-bly take the next two years. Only the basicEuropean promotion will last two monthsand we're not talking about the touring it-self."

In June, Roxette will be touring NorthAmerica, in autumn they will be on aEuropean tour, in both cases playing 45shows. After that they will be touringAustralasia in 1992. At the moment theduo are on a European promo tour whichincludes the following countries: the UK,Germany, Italy, Scandinavia, Holland,Belgium, and Spain. Each territory has ca-refully planned marketing activities.

TV advertising is currently planned forthe initial phase of the Joyride project inItaly and Finland, while radio campaignsare being executed in Germany, Italy,Spain, Switzerland and Holland.

Some of the TV shows which will be ta-ping the group during this period are"Countdown"/Holland, "Top Of ThePops"/UK, "Caramba"/Sweden, "Levens-lijn Gala"/Belgium, "Sacre Soiree"/Franceand "Geld Oder Liebe"/Germany.

Originally they were called MassiveAttack, but when the situation in the war inthe Gulf became worse ("massive attack onIraq"), they had to change their name toMassive. Circa had to change sleeve de-

signs and posters, which cost the label£10.000.Defining their very own "moody" style,Massive are setting a new standard to dancein a similar way as Soul II Soul did. Co-producer Nellee Hooper remixed Massive'scurrent, second single Unfinished Sympathy.The first single, last year's Daydreaming al-ready drew encouraging responses to theband. The vibe around the project has resul-ted in a worldwide release of the forth-coming debut album Blue Lines. EvenJapan-usually not very dance-minded-isinvolved.

The band members are all familiar faceson the Bristol dance scene. Rappers/musi-cians 3D, Mushroom and Daddy Dee werethe nucleus of The Wild Bunch. They werethe leading DJs in the clubs downtown.Female vocalist Shara is a real asset to theband. All TV appearances are done by her,backed by a string section.

The single received good airings all overEurope. It was on "powerplay" at Dutchbroadcasters VARA and Veronica (no. 1 inthe "Tipparade").

Riccardo Cocciante is this year's winnerof the San Remo Song Festival beating19 other major contenders with the songSe Stiamo Insieme. Renato Zero (BMGAriola) won second place and MarcoMasini (Dischi Ricordi) was the thirdprize winner. State RAI TV covered thefour -day event exclusively and over 40million viewers tuned in at some stage.In typical San Remo fashion, Sarah Jane

Morris (of Jimmy Somerville fame), per-formed an English -language version ofCocciante's song.

Cocciante is not a newcomer on thescene, in 1984 he had a minor Europeanhit with the single Sincerita, which wasalso translated into French. He sings withgreat intensity, his music is romantic andhe is a gifted piano player. Now he haswon in San Remo, his name is likely tospread even more across Europe.

At the beginning of April he will go ona 20 -day promo tour through Mexico, al-though that is not related to his currentEuropean release schedules. The single ison heavy rotation on Radio DimensioneSuono, Radio Star/Vicenza, and RAI 1;also it is an add on RTL 102.5/Bergamo.

STATION OPERATIONS

Secrets Of Successful TV MarketingTelevision advertising for radio stations is a specialised

science as well as an art, for marketing radio is unlike sel-ling other products consumers use on a daily basis. Here

is a look at some of the basic principles to remember whendeveloping a TV spot or campaign for your station.

by Philip Cheney

Top -of -mind awareness is the keyto any station's performance withratings services, especially when itcomes to unprompted recall. And itcan be argued that TV commercialspromoting your station do a betterjob of attaining top -of -mind aware-ness than any other advertisingmedia available to radio because ofits memorability. Unlike othermedia, TV works on multiple sen-ses-sight and sound. In trulyeffective TV advertising, one rein-forces the other. The two providethe opportunity to affect a vieweremotionally with your advertisingmessage to compel a viewer to re-member your station.

As a further benefit, effective,creative TV advertising gives yourstation prominence with local ad-vertisers. Effective TV advertisinghelps you rise above the clutter ofall the other media vying for theirattention. It makes you top -of -mind

also.Both advertisers and listeners

are necessary for your growth andcontinued success, especially asyour market becomes more compe-titive.

Set Your Goal FirstSo what is effective TV advertisingfor radio? The first step is the iden-tification of a goal. As a radio

broadcaster you must, before anyt-hing else, identify the specific mar-keting objective you want your TVadvertising to achieve.

For example, do you want topromote a generalised image ofyour station? Or do you want topromote a more specific elementsuch as a contest or listening duringa particular daypart? Whatever yourmarketing goal, it must be clear inyour mind before your TV commer-cial is written and produced. Onceyou are certain of the message thatyou wish to communicate, you canthen define a creative context thatachieves your marketing goal in amemorable way. The goal, not thecreative, must come first.

The Big FourOnce this goal is determined thecreative can be developed. Withinthe body of your "creative", thereare four points that are basic to the

essentially, these points help to pro-mote top -of -mind awareness.

Identity And LocationFirst, who are you? What are yourcall letters? You cannot within reas-on reinforce your call letters toostrongly within the body of yourcommercial. If the viewing au-dience does not remember who youare they cannot mention your callletters if surveyed.

Second, where are you? Theanswer to this question demandsstrong communication of your dialposition. Dial position is your ad-dress; it tells the potential audiencewhere you are located. Simply put.if they cannot find you they cannotlisten to you.

Third, what are you? Let's sayyou are radio station XYZ, locatedat 106.8 FM. But how are you dif-ferent from the seven other stationsthat share the FM dial with you?

Communicating KeyBenefits

Good advertising should provideyour viewers with potential bene-fits-those elements which are uni-que to your station and distinguish it

"You must, before anything else, identifythe specific marketing objective you want."

selling of radio on TV: dial position,call letters, listener benefits and callto action. Some or all of thesepoints should be present in a com-mercial. The degree to which theyare present is governed by the mar-keting goal of the commercial, but

from your competition. Listener be-nefits set you apart, giving potentialcume in the TV viewing audiencereasons for trying your station.

One benefit could be the musicyour station plays. A very good wayto convey a feel for your music is to

make specific mentions of your"core" artists. Perhaps a sampling ofthose artists could be played underthe voiceover or dialogue of yourcommercial. However, this option issometimes cost -prohibitive, giventhe expense of music licensing. Inthis case, your TV commercial canstill work effectively without it.

However, you will have to pay extraattention to getting across yourmusic position through othermeans. If you can afford it, musicsampling provides a concrete meansof setting your station apart from allthe others competing for the samelisteners.

Bringing YourListeners To The Radio

The fourth factor is the call to ac-tion, which tells the TV viewerexactly what you, the advertiser,want him or her to do. As any goodsales person knows, you have to askfor the order to close the deal. Thesame applies to TV advertising. It isimportant that you tell people to settheir radio to your dial position totune in to your signal, to turn onyour radio station and listen. Takeadvantage of the persuasive powerof TV to tell your TV audiencewhat you want them to do. Makethe call to action. Ask for the order.

The specific elements of call -let-ter identification, location, listenerbenefits and call to action are consi-dered "tactical" matters. A fully tac-tical television marketing plan, the-refore, is used to promote a specificelement of station programming,whether that be contesting during aspecific daypart or one very specificlistener benefit.

MAKING WAVES

However, a radio station in itsmarketing may downplay thesecomponents to convey a more ge-neral or "strategic" impression ofyour station. Strategic marketing ischaracterised by TV commercialswhich are designed primarily to cre-ate an image of a radio station in aviewer's mind. In fact, strategicmarketing is often referred to as"image marketing." In the case ofradio, strategic TV commercialswill often rely on humour or life-style vignettes to help create a senseof the image that the radio stationrepresents.

Comments music director HansStrandberg, "Radio P4 is one ofSweden's biggest local radio sta-tions, covering a 12 -mile radiusaround Lund, including our thirdlargest city, Malmo. Launched in1984, the station was linked to localstudent association AkademiskaForeningen and called Radio AF.The name was changed to Radio P4during the summer when there wasno obligation to the student body.However, we gradually learned thatthe majority of our listeners wereoutside the academic world, drawnfrom the general population.

"Recently, P4 broke away fromthe student body and is now an in-dependent association, although westill share the frequency with thestudents at certain times of day.Independence gives us a betterchance to develop the station in

preparation for the introduction ofcommercial radio.

"Our target audience is 15-35

year olds, and the core of the formatis EHR. The image we want is ofbeing the first to play new tracks.We don't rely on the record compa-nies all the time, as they will oftensend discs that have already beencurrent in the US or UK for severalmonths. Instead, I prefer to look formyself, checking out the import sto-res every week with the M&M andBillboard charts as a guide. We alsohave contacts with UK stations, no-tably Kiss FM/London.

But werealised after a - while that youcouldn't be that narrow in a marketlike ours. Maybe in Stockholm youcould, but here we have to have a

wide aim both in audience and inmusic.

"We've done a lot of work in thepast year to build up a good mor-ning show. Looking elsewhere inEurope and the US, we saw thatcatching an audience early is thekey to keeping them tuned to thesame frequency all day. It's also justthe last year that we've really gotinto playlisting. We have A, B andC -lists. The main criteria are thatDJs must play five records from theA -list every hour, two or three fromthe others, plus one of the two po-werplays and one track from thealbum of the week each hour.

"Of course, we are interested incomputerised programming, but it'sfar too expensive for us at the mo-ment. Without commercials, ourbudget-about Slcr 1 million (app.US$150.000) this year-is entirelymet by listener contributions, mer-chandising and other activities. All

staff are volunteers, mostly stu-

dents, including myself."But we expect advertising

could become legal as early as thissummer. We're already moving intomore projects. There are roadshowsfrom our OB bus a couple of timesa week, we're starting a magazine,and organise discos. These are hel-ping us develop the contacts withlocal entrepreneurs and businessesthat we will need soon."

HARDWARE/SOFTWARE

Audio Processing Tricks & Trapsby Andy Bantock

If radio stations simply connectedall programme sources via amixing console to the transmitter,music radio would sound muchlike your hi-fi at home. One trackmay be much louder than anotherand quieter passages would getlost beneath the sound of thebaby crying or the dog eating thecat. The DJ's voice would soundno more remarkable than some-one talking to you from a metreaway-in short it would allsound a bit boring.

EqualisationWhat can and do stations doabout it? They process. This in-volves playing about with theaudio signal, hopefully in such away as to make the radio stationsound better to the audience.What sort of things can the sta-tion do to the signal to "process"it? The first way is to "equalise"it. The term "equalise" is a littlemisleading, because rather thanmaking the sound flat and

we actually boost or cutcertain frequencies or pitches toalter the sound of the signal. Thisis most often done with voicesand most, if not all, mixing deskshave equaliser (or EQ) sectionson each channel.

By adjusting the EQ knobs wecan make a person with a thin,higher -pitched voice sound morebassy and vice versa. We mustbeware, however, of over -adjust-ment. Many ego -inflated (male)DJs put more and more bass intotheir voices to make them sound"butch" and "sexy", althoughwhether this actually works is de-batable! Of course EQ can alsobe very useful as a correction toolas well as an enhancement. Badlyrecorded tapes can often be par-tially corrected by careful use ofEQ. The effects of Dolby, whereit cannot be properly decoded,are also improved by cutting thehigh frequencies slightly.

Compression41. The main and most familiar sort

of processing is compression.Compression restricts the level ofyour audio signal to within a pre-sent band; making the quietestbits louder and the loudest bitsquieter. This could be said to bemessing about with the signal,spoiling what the artist and rec-ord producer wanted you to hear,but it has the advantage of impro-ving intelligibility and increasingthe subjective loudness of the sig-nal. On a crowded band this canhave tangible benefits. If yourstation sounds louder than yourneighbour's, the listener is morelikely to stop tuning up and downthe band and stay with you. Theresult: happy advertisers!Compression is the most contro-versial form of processing. Manypurists and audiophiles curse it asthe ultimate degradation of thesignal and wish it gone, but if it issensibly used it is a force forgood. Inherent within compres-sion is a degree of "limiting".This occurs when the signal re-aches the absolute maximum al-lowed and is basically "choppedoff'. If the signal hits the limitthreshold too often, then what is

tage of dealing with such trouble-some things as reggae tracks withheavy baselines which, under ge-neral compression, drag thewhole signal down with thembut, with a split bander, are dealtwith in isolation. By definition,these units, when adjusted formaximum effect, are really onlysuitable for non -classical musicand especially not solo piano.With a very wide frequencyrange and dynamic range (verysoft to very loud) they can playhavoc with a split -bander.

PsychoacousticProcessingThe final and most novel form ofprocessing is psychoacoustic. Avery long word for a very com-plex concept! The idea behind itis that the brain responds to dif-ferent frequencies in differentways. No two manufacturer'spsychoacoustic units are exactlythe same, but most of them willslightly delay a certain frequencyband with respect to the main sig-nal. Suffice to say that the soundis changed in such a way as tomake it more noticeable. Other

known as "pumping" takesplace-very noticeable and tiringto listen to. Compressor/limitersneed to be carefully set up toavoid this, especially when theyare of the multi -band type.

The multi or split -band com-pressors are favourite to ultimateoutput processing of stations' sig-nals. Optimod, Inovonics andCRL are three of the better-known makes. Rather than pro-cessing the entire signal in onego, they split it into several fre-quency bands-anything fromtwo to six depending on themodel-and act upon each oneseparately. This has the advan-

A LITTLE T&T - Here's sbs's new FM25 transmitter (top) and transmis-sion audio processor, priced at £1.275 and £995, respectively. Bothare housed in 19" rack cases. This 20W blowtorch can go further thanmany college radio stations in the US.

gizmos often used by psycho -acoustic units are comb filtersand phase delays.

Allied to psychacoustics arethe stereo enhancement units.They are, in actual fact, psycho -acoustic processors, as they havethe effect of artificially wideningthe stereo image. Many peoplewill be familiar with the stereo -wide switch on their ghetto blas-ter or tape desk. This works inroughly the same way althoughthe proper stereo enhancer ismuch more clever. To achievewide stereo on the tape deck, allthe manufacturer does is to takea feed off the left channel, phasereverse it, partially mix it withthe right channel and vice versa.Where the speakers are only afew centimetres apart this is ac-ceptable, but try it on a hi-fi andyou are left with an odd "hole -in -the -middle" sound. The stereoenhancer will, in addition, fillthe "hole" and drastically im-prove the stereo sound in cars,for in stance.

New ProductsSo what is on the market toachieve all these wonderfulthings? As far as EQ is concer-ned, as mentioned, mixing desksalready have a section for this onmost channels. There is, how-ever, a fairly new unit availablethat answers the age-old pro -

IS THAT A DAT IN YOUR POCKET OR ARE YOU JUST GLADTO SEE ME? - The new portable Aiwa HHB I Pro DAT recorder incor-porates balanced XLR mic line inputs and AES/EBU digital input/out-puts. London distributor HHB sees this unit "as a serious low-cost ac-quisition partner for Sony's studio machines". This compact unit weighsless than I kg, and can record up to three hours on batteries; a multi -voltage transformer and NiCad battery pack are included. Price: £995.

blem of people fiddling with theEQ knobs to bad effect. TheCRL 1PP-100 is a combinationequaliser and two -band com-pressor of a fairly conventionaltype except that, once set to thepresenter's choice, the controlsare disabled by means of a keyand the presets are recalled by amatrix of switches allowing upto 18 different settings. The IPP-100, or Instant PersonalityProcessor, can also be remotelycontrolled requiring only thepreset matrix in the studio witheverything else out of harm'sway.

There are a host of compres-sor/limiter units both single andsplit band, stereo and mono forAM or FM. Orban produces itsfamous Optimod range, which isprobably one of the most widelyused in the world. The 8100A/1is the standard processor/stereogenerator to which can be addecta six -band limiter section. Thereis also an option to split the unitinto two sections so that thecompressor unit feeds thelines/STL while the rest is at thetransmitter site. Orban's 9100 se-ries is for AM and includes the9100A/2 for AM stereo-soonto be a reality in Europe.

In addition to its conventionalprocessors, CRL Systems has re-cently introduced the AudioSignature; a microprocessor con-trolled wideband and four -bandunit with a choice of four me-mory -recall settings. Ideally sui-ted for stations which changeformat during the day, the AScan be remotely controlled by aPC. This means that not only canthe processing preset changes bemade automatically, but an engi-neer can "drive" the AS totallyfrom his or her computer screen.The AS features adjustablecrossover points for the multi -band processor allowing a greatrange of sound from one unit.

Psychoacoustic processors are

relatively new to Europe. Onethat I have heard in action andliked is the Audio Logic unitand another highly recommen-ded is BBE's Sonic Maximiser.

It will be interesting to watchthe development of processingtechnology over the next fewyears. Undoubtedly, the area ofpsychoacoustics will be greatlyexpanded and the eventual ad-vent of DAB will also havesome effect on processing as awhole. Audio processing hasgradually been accepted by mostif not all of the major broadcas-ters in Europe. On AM and shortwave it is practically obligatoryfor enhanced intelligibility, andnow on FM there is hardly a sta-tion without some form of com-pressor on its output, even if it isnow a split bander.

COMPUTER PROGRAMMING

Computer music scheduling has become a fact of life at many radio stations across Europe. Asstations move towards tighter formatting and targeted audiences, they have found they need to

maintain a consistent station sound that will appeal to and hold an audience. Computers are seenas the best way to achieve this.

by Paul Easton

The use of computers is a controversial subject.There are programmers who swear bythem-while there are others who will not touch

them. One early computer convert was DowntownRadio/Belfast. Head of programmes John Rosboroughhas been using Selector since 1988, one of the first UK sta-tions to do so, and now has two separate systems for bothDowntown and Cool FM. His comments echo those ofmany other programmers. "We believe using a computergives us a way of having a consistency, but not a same-ness."

It is this element of consistency that is cited by program-mers as the key factor for using a computer. They claim itenables their station to maintain a recognisable soundwhich appeals to its target audience. It also prevents theproblems that can arise when the station sound changeswith each different presenter.

Radio Tay/Dundee station assistant Richard Allen isalso happy with the results of using Selector. "I love it andon the whole it works very well. If I was building a pro-gramme by hand I could probably come up with a betterselection than the computer but I could not do it consis-tently day after day."

Freedom From ChoresUsing a computer is also seen as a way of freeing the pro-grammer from a lot of basis routine work. The chore ofchecking individual programme playlists for proper rota-tion and repetition is all done during the scheduling func-tion. It also avoids the problem of records being playedthat are not really suitable for the station, because thesewould not be in the database in the first place. By includingthe relevant information with each item, the computer willalso handle the necessary returns to the copyright bodies,which have agreed formats with all of the main softwarecompanies to enable stations to make their returns viafloppy disk.

Rosborough is also delighted with some of the other ad-vantages that using a computer offers. "It can provide agreat deal of useful management information. For example,you can see whether or not certain records are getting pro -

Setting Up A Programme

Choose your software carefully. Decide what your target audience is. Select the music that appeals to that audience. Assess each item that is to be entered into the database Make sure that your database is properly balanced

to match the desired output. Divide songs into categories. Set up rules for rotation and music flow. When entering material into the database be

consistent and accurate at all times. Remember "Garbage In. Garbage Out!"

per rotation and exposure, and, if they are not, you cansoon find out why. It is very good at helping to spot presen-ters who are always playing their particular favouriteswhile dropping the records they do not like."

Programmes By HandHowever, there is still resistance towards computers insome quarters. Although BBC Radio 1 has its own compu-ter system, ROMEO, for music administration, it stillbuilds its programmes by hand, a practice which is defen-ded by head of music Chris Lycett. "I would argue that

you could not develop therange of music that we playif it was run by a computersystem. The whole point of acomputerised programingsystem is to target a smallplaylist and rotate it.

"I believe that when youstart programing music bycomputer you are immedia-tely creating parameters thatdo -not necessarily work inevery case. What makes agood segue for example?You do not know until youhave tried it. The way we doit works for us. I do notthink a tighter, more format-ted style of broadcastingwould give us the range thatwe have.

"When a presenter issimply given a list of recordsto play and an order inwhich he is to play them andthe number of seconds inwhich he has allowed to talkin between them, it creates aproduction line structure tothe show."

"The wholepoint of compu-terised progra-ming is to tar-get a smallplaylist and ro-tate it." - ChrisLycett, BBC Radio1.

Check Repetition And RotationSelector UK agent Angela Bond points out that not every-body enjoys the advantages Lycett has at Radio 1. "If youhave a large team of experienced programme builders thenyou can afford to build by hand, with someone responsiblefor checking repetition and rotation. But how many sta-tions can afford to have such a team?"

Another UK station not using a computer is BeaconRadio/Wolverhampton. Programme controller Pete Wag-staff says that his budget meant having to choose betweeninstalling DAMS or Selector. "I think I can pick the musicas well as Selector, and still get a kick out of programmingthe music. Obviously, that is not the only reason I do it, butit is a kick to pick a Beatles track and hear it coming out of

BYTINGTHECOMPUTERBULLETthe radio in three weeks' time."

If programme controllers are pleased with the advanta-ges, there have certainly been mixed feelings among thepresenters. On most stations they had been responsible forcompiling their own programmes within the format, clocksand guidelines laid down by the programme controller.

Dictated To, Says PresenterThe introduction of computer scheduling has sometimescaused resentment over being told what to play.

One presenter is highly critical of his station's use of acomputer, "I have been picking the music for my dailyshow for several years and everybody has seemed perfectlyhappy with what I was doing. Now we have this computerwhich prints out this list of records for me to play.

"If I deviate from the list in any way I get told off by theprogramme controller. This machine is an insult to my abi-lity to put together a good programme and has reduced meto nothing more than another machine. How can I soundinvolved if I cannot choose my own music? It is no goodsuggesting I move to another station because just abouteverybody else is now using a computer or seriously think-ing about it!"

Colleague Quite HappyOn the other hand, some presenters are quite happy toleave the musical choice to someone else. They believethat it enables them to devote more time to what goes be-tween the records as well as avoiding the same recordsbeing played too often.

As another presenter puts it, "Sometimes I have comeacross a great oldie in the library but I cannot rememberwhether or not I have played it recently, and whether any-body else has.

"A further problem I have noticed is that occasionally Ihave played a classic oldie on air and the other presentershave heard it. Then everybody else ends up playing thatrecord to death over the next few days.

"Whatever people may say about using a computer toput the programmes together, at least it avoids this."

In order to maintain presenters' goodwill, Bond suggeststhat it could be to a station's advantage to get the presentersinvolved with the necessary preparation of the database inchanging over to a computer system.

"If you have a lot of talented DJs who know their musicand their listeners, they could be part and parcel of building upthe database. Besides, there is nothing to stop individual pre-senters featuring their own special items when using a compu-ter. The degree of such input is up to the programme control-ler."

Suggestions WelcomeSome stations allow no presenter freedom at all. Others havewon over their presenters by giving them varying levels of in-volvement in the content of programmes. This is done eitherby allowing the presenter one or more free choices an hour orhaving special features such as listeners' top five.

Although Radio Tay does not allow its presenters muchfreedom, Richard Allen says he is always happy to listen tosuggestions from them. ''Sometimes, though, when they cometo me and say that a particular record is not right for theirshow, what they often mean is that they do not actually like it.However, we do allow them to juggle their running orders ifthey spot a good segue."

Another solution is to allow the presenter to work with thecomputer themselves. Downtown's Rosborough has foundthis has been very successful. "When we first got Selectorthere were the usual suspicions from the presenters that thiswas 'an evil monster to take away our creative input', but oncethey saw the advantages they were won over immediately.

"We allow our presenters to fine-tune their shows using themanual scheduler facility but within the usual rules. It not onlykeeps them happy but has the additional advantage of ena-bling them to see what is happening in the other shows aroundthem."

Competing SystemsThere are several competing music scheduling soft-ware systems available. Before deciding on a parti-cular system, a station is advised to choose its soft-

ware carefully.Talk to other stations already using computerised music

scheduling and the particular software they are using and findout what they think of the sys-tem they have.

Will it do what you want itto do with room for later ex-pansion? Can it handle yourreturns to the relevant copy-right bodies?

The dominant marketleader is Selector which is inuse at over 1.400 stationsworldwide and also availablein French, German, Spanish.Italian and Greek -languageversions.

Developed by Radio Com-puting Services in the US in1979, the latest Selector "Ver-sion 12" is now being introdu-ced as a replacement for theexisting "Version 11".

Selector 12 is a completeredesign and rewrite from theground up and is the result ofextensive consultation withleading international radioprogrammers to find out whatthey wanted to make Selector "even better".

"When we firstgot Selectorthere were theusual suspicionsfrom the pre-senters that thiswas 'an evilmonster to takeaway our cre-ative input', butonce they sawthe advantagesthey were wonover immedia-tely." - John Ros-borough, Down-town Radio.

Selector 11, Airplay HistoryRosborough continues, "Many programmers we questionedsaid that while Selector 11 could display the airplay history ofa particular song, they would like to be able to have a similardisplay showing the combined history of a particular song.

"They would like to be able to have a similar displayshowing the combined history of all records by a particular ar-tist. This facility is now available with Selector 12, along witha fully comprehensive series of 'Help' screens at every stage,which avoids having to keep referring to the manual.

Another US -developed scheduler now available in Europe

is Powerplay which is being marketed in Europe by ParkMedia of Stockholm. Park Media's Bjorn Mohr says the sys-tem is already in use on several Swedish stations includingSAF/Stockholm.

"We are mainly focusing on Scandinavia at the moment be-cause we know the market, so it makes sense to start here.However, we hope to be able to introduce it into other marketsbefore too long."

Although most scheduling software has come from the US,Q -Star, from New Zealand is being used on several Europeanstations and there are now some European developed systems.

Vorsprung Durch TecknikSHT and Funky have both been designed especially for theGerman market where Selector leads the field with over 30public and private stations using it.

Alexander Lang, who helped design the software forFunky, says it differs from the other schedulers by being coup-led with a complete archive system. "As such, Funky cannotonly compile a progamme with predetermined rotation butcan also draw from its archive which is not necessarily catalo-gued by catego ries. In this way access can be had to titles notin rotation for special programming such as request shows."

Iris was developed in the UK as a low-cost alternative forsmaller stations which might not have been able to afford oneof the other systems. Kerry Juby, who has since resignedfrom the his board, says they are now putting a lot into theirnew Professional Filotrax system.

"This is a full-blown scheduling system which may replacethe Iris music scheduling sys-tem. It has everything youneed to run a station includingdoing your PRS and PPL re-turns and comes completewith a database of 5.000tracks. Unlike other systemsfor which you have to pay afortune to lease, you can buythis for just £500 all -in."

DevelopmentNearing the end of its initialdevelopment period is Master -play from Media Touch.Media Touch's AndyMcHardy says it is about tobe given some on -site tests ata number of stations.

"We have based Masterplaon Microsoft's "Window 3".which is one of the best-sel-ling systems available. A lotof people who have Selectorsay that while it is very good,they are not using all of the Selector features. We have tried torespond to what they wanted by providing a simple music -scheduling system.

"Masterplay can handle up to around 30.000-40.000 songsfor those stations which need to incorporate a great deal of da-tabase information from their record library. The cost of thesystem is not based on station size. Instead, there is a flat feebuyout with a small annual charge for upgrades and phonesupport."

While a one-off payment may appear to work out cheaperthan a two or three-year leasing deal, the software supplierswho operate that maintain that leasing is actually a better deal.

"I get a kick outof programmingthe music... tohear it comingout the radio inthree weeks'time." - Pete

Wagstaff, BeaconRadio.

Automatic Updates NotifiedBecause their software is constantly being enhanced, clientstations automatically receive any further updates as they be-come available, as well .as full customer support at no extracost.

No special hardware is needed to run the software.Apart from the US system MdB, which claims to be the

only one developed for the Apple Macintosh, all the othersystems, including Selector, Q -Star, Powerplay, Masterplayand Iris are designed to run on a standard IBM compatible PC.While many stations may already have the necessary equip-ment, it is strongly recommended that a dedicated machineis used.



STATION REPORTS

Station reports include allnew additions to the playlist,indicated by the abbrevia-tion "AD". Reports from cer-tain stations will also includerecords on the "A" list(heavy rotation) and, in somecases, on the "8" list(medium rotation). A numberof stations feature a "PowerPlay" ("PP"), a track whichreceives special emphasis forthe week. The "LP designa-tion reflects the new album(s)added.

US Comes To M&M

Starting next issue, M&M willintroduce a weekly US page.Written by our US editor, TomKay, the 'section will keep youup-to-date with what's going onacross the Atlantic. We'll tell youwhat's hot and what's not in theStates and how it all relates toEurope.

Emmis OutTurns out US media companyEmmis Broadcasting's invest-ment in French dance stationMaxximum FM was never com-pleted, if there even was a deal atall.

A call to Emmis revealed thatthe company has only a consul-ting agreement with Maxximum.Emmis last year (M&M April14) originally planned to pay a re-ported US$2 million for a 15%stake in Maxximum.

Island Fire

Island France has been on a hotstreak this month. The label hasalready signed five French acts,and more are planned in April.

On Shoes & INXSShoemaker Converse is hookingup with PolyGram on a cassinglepromotion for INXS's SuicideBlonde. Buy some shoes and geta discount on the cassingle.

The promotion is planned tostart in early to mid -April.Countries already signed up: theUK, Spain, Austria and Portugal.

Euro entertainment marketingcompany Stiletto did it once lastyear with Converse and DavidBowie, promoting Bowie's great-est hits package. The song on thecassingle was Fame 90; flipsidewas a rap version with QueenLateefah.

ments to strengthen the associationbetween the artist and Pepsi."Karakadas declined to comment onthe specifics of the investment, alt-hough the figure for Germany isbelieved to be DM8 million (app.US$5.24 million).

The album Please HammerDon't Hurt 'Em is near the one mi-lion sales mark in Europe, andCapitol Records hopes the tourwill add another million to thetotal. Please... will be advertisedon TV in France, Holland, Italy,Spain and Germany. It will be fur-ther supported by a wide array ofin-store material and displays.

In Germany, where the LP hassold some 335.000 copies, EMIwill be running 28 spots on nation-wide cable channel Tele-5 fromMarch 25-31. Some 13 radio sta-tions, both public and private, willbe airing similar 20 -second spotsin the same period. These includethe privates RSH/Hamburg,Hessen state station Radio fTn,Radio Hamburg, RadioSalii/Saarbriicken, RadioRPR/Ludwigshafen, AntenneBayern/Munich and the public sta-tions RB/Bremen, HR/Frankfurt,SR/Saarbriicken, SWF/ BadenBaden, SDR/Stuttgart, Bayern3/Munich and SFB/ Berlin.

According to EMI MusicWorldwide continental Europeanmarketing manager DidierZerath, the budget spent on MCHammer is Capitol's biggest thisyear. "We are talking about some-body who will be the artist of the'90s. We're investing in the future."

Capitol has already released foursingles from the LP-U Can'tTouch This, Have You Seen HerPray and Here Comes The

Hammer. The fifth one, Yo

Sweetness is due out next month.MC Hammer's US platinum

debut album, Let's Get It Started,will be re-released in Europe onMarch 25.

were up 10% on that promo.More than 500.000 units of thecassingle were shipped. For theINXS promo, the company willship about the same amount.

"This is the first time that newmusic by a Major artist has beenused in a brand gift with pur-chase," says Stiletto exec DavidHazan.

Park Parked?"Right now I still consider myselfto be in the middle of doing some-thing, not reaching the end," saysCapital Radio/London pro-gramme director Richard Park,amid rumours he might be appoint-ed Capital Radio Group MD.

Is this a hint he is happy to stayin programming? Park claims he isno stranger to calls from head-hunters, saying he's been getting"umpteen calls offering positionsas MD, all from within the musicindustry".

AIRC, PPL(continued from page 1)

scale, possibly rising as high as 20%for major stations.

The decision follows recent talksthat ended in a stalemate (M&MMarch 23). The two groups hadhoped to reach an agreement with-out going to the Tribunal.

Comments PPL head of broad-casting Peter Rogers, "The 1986agreement is not suitable for radio inthe '90s. There has been too muchchange in the independent radio (IR)ornrifin. F.Tnnially in rplavatinn of

sponsorship rules. There has been achange in revenue base."

AIRC director Brian Westdisagrees. "The copyright rates quo-ted to us by PPL were so high wehad to reject them." West says hehas been advised by the Tribunal itmight be September before a he-aring can be scheduled.

Continues West, "The AIRC po-sition on IR's revenue base has notchanged. We will accept a levy onsponsorship if there is a pro -rata re-duction in that charged against netadvertising income."

A six-month extension to an "ex-perimental" licence, which IR ag-reed to in 1986, will expire thisweek (March 31). Afterwards, a sta-tutory licence procedure will be in-voked. Under those rules, an indivi-dual station makes a "reasonable"interim offer to PPL. Backdatedpayments would then become liableafter a ruling.

The just -ended licence saw a sta-tion pay 4.04% on its first £1.6 mil-lion of net ad revenue, and 7.07%thereafter. Payments by IR in thepast financial year was £5.9 million.

The lack of agreement betweenthe two groups is affecting INR bid-ders, confirms Independent RadioAuthority spokesperson TracyMuffins. The Authority is concer-ned bidders' financial forecasts havehad to be calculated without confir-mation of what percentage of net adrevenue will be charged or whethersponsorship income will be levied.

More NewsmakersEric Kronfeld has been appoin-ted president and chief operatingofficer of PolyGram HoldingInc. (PHI). Kronfeld will be di-rectly responsible for co-ordina-ting the activities of the variouscompanies owned by PolyGramin the areas of finance, personneland corporate legal and businessaffairs administration.

PolyGram(continued from page 1)

new music is too narrow."Individually, they are too tightlyformatted to cover our wholerange of new product to the ex-tent that RTL can, and in anycase, most tend to wait until atrack has charted before they areinterested in it. It can be very dif-ficult to get airplay for new artistson FM."

RTL's involvement is also unu-sual because the campaign wastargeted primarily at opinionleaders-retailers and regionalmedia-rather than the generalpublic.

Says Bakouch, "It was impor-tant for us to involve a nationalradio station in the event. RTLwas the obvious choice because itis the leading station in Franceand it has an outlook which fa-vours new French music."

RTL head of promotionStephane Duhamel details thatthe limited scope of the campaignwas not a problem for the station."It was right for us because it re-presents a good cross-section ofnew French music. We try to pre-sent a broad range of new music,and this selection fits the billexactly."

The "Generation Musiques"consists of 33 acts signed to

PolyGram labels Polydor,Phonogram, Barclay, Philipsand Remark, or distributedthrough PolyGram Distribution.The artists are David Hallyday,Mory Kante, Lio, Les NegressesVertes, Niagara, VanessaParadis, Francois Feldman andElmer Food Beat, as well asmany lesser -known acts.

The main thrust of the cam-paign, co-ordinated by PolyGramsales director LaurentGallavardin, was a PR tourcovering eight major French ci-ties. Key to the tour was the dis-tribution of a limited edition(4.000 units) six -CD set featuringall the artists and carrying theRTL logo. Neither firm is re-vealing the cost of the promotion.

Comments Phonogram jointMD Philippe Vidalenc, "Wehave a lot of new talent, but it isvery hard to get exposure for it inthe media or the record shops. Weset up this operation to showthem that there is a new genera-tion of talent that doesn't receivethe attention it deserves.

"These artists represent the fu-ture of PolyGram and we wantedto show our commitment to them.The campaign is a starting pointfor us-we will be focusingthroughout the year on our newacts, alongside the more esta-blished ones."

Jackson(continued from page 1)

Entertainment will be the fol-low-up release to 1987's Bad,which is due this summer. Theagreement includes six new re-cords.

Also, Jackson has foundedthe Nation Records label, towhich both new and esta-blished artists will be signed.

Based on songs from thenew album, Jackson will beproducing a series of shortfilms, in collaboration with di-rectors such as Sir RichardAttenborough, David Lynchand Tim Burton.

Jackson's first full-length fe-ature film for ColumbiaPictures is currently being writ-ten by Caroline Thompsonand Larry Wilson, co-authorof "Beetlejuice".

In a written statement onMarch 20, Sony Software pre-sident Michael Schulhof com-ments: "Sony and MichaelJackson have had an oustan-ding relationship in music.

"We look forward to expan-ding those horizons to includeother entertainment opportuni-ties, which only Sony can pro-vide." MB

MTV(continued from page 1)

MTV Europe, which is nowavailable via cable, satellite orterrestrial relays to more than 20million homes in Europe, decli-ned to comment at press time.

Baudecroux says increasing adsales at MTV Europe would beone of NRJ's major priorities if ittook over the channel. "NRJ has alot of expertise in marketing, re-search and generating income forformatted radio, which we canuse to increase MTV Europe's

sales. We also want to help themincrease their penetration, parti-cularly in southern Europe andFrance. where they are still notvery strong."

But he says he is unlikely toconsider altering MTV Europe'sformat if it took over the channel.

"They have a good team and agood product and are doing agreat job. We don't want to interf-ere with that. But there are certainpoints on which we can helpMTV. For instance, sharing artistinterviews." Baudecroux says hehas already met MTV Europe

MD Bill Roedy and other staff todiscuss his strategy for the chan-nel.

He adds that NRJ will almostcertainly review its participationin Euromusique if the MTV dealgoes through. "We would defini-tely consider pulling out.Euromusique still faces too manyproblems.

"But there are some other pos-sible opportunities which we arediscussing with our partners inthat company, including perhapsbringing the two channels closertogether in some way."
