" BPME Searches For Marketing Secretshv Jell Green

The US -based Broadcast Promo-tion & Marketing Executives(BPME) organisation staged itsfirst UK conference in Leeds onNovember 9-10 at the Hilton In-ternational Hotel. The event at-tracted 250 radio and TV stationmarketing and promotion direc-tors, advertising agencies, TV pro-gramme distributors, consultantsand syndicators, among other in-dustry representatives. Chair-man/CEO Chris Meehan hailedthe gathering a "tremendous suc-cess" citing the strong turnout,resulting in some crowdedmeetings.

The session centring on radio,called 'Radio Promotion - Nar-rowcasting Versos Broadcasting',focused on the broad aspects ofmarketing radio to consumers.Chaired by the Daily Telegraph'sGillian Reynolds, key speakers tothe packed room included HallettArendt agency specialist Jona-than Arendt and BBC GLR'sMatthew Bannister.

Arendt recommends that mar-keting/promotion directors helpmanagement to establish a station"definition of aims", adding that"many promotion directors don'texactly know what they're sup-posed to be doing".

An informal poll among thosepresent revealed that only about25% of the directors worked atstations with "mission state-ments" or clearly defined corpo-rate marketing objectives. Arendtencouraged broadcast promo-

He warns of the temptation tolet a sales promotion "prejudiceyour station's objectives", adding"you must understand what theconsequences are by altering yourstrategies".

Meanwhile, Bannister discuss-ed marketing problems GLR hasfaced, conceding that his stationhad spent less on promotion thanany other London wideband.While acknowledMg that the'Music For Grown Ups' position-ing was on the right track, he saysthey learned that listeners also ap-preciate GLR's strong sense ofresponsibility toward news, cur-rent affairs and minority interests,which led to the slogan 'London'sthought -provoking station.

Says Bannister of the lessonslearned: "It's no good getting themessage out if it doesn't reflectthe programming content. Adver-using must given a clear picture ofit:'

Several participants expressedconcern about using advertisingagencies, which they felt often lostsense of the basic message by be-ing too sophisticated in an ever-increasing competitive environ-ment. The integral position ofpublic relations in a station'smarketing portfolio was also rein-forced, while the notion of ra.

din as a "product" was debated.It was evident from the live-

liness of the erehange that the ses-sion could have easily gone on forat least an hour longer, promptingrecommendations at the closingmeeting to expand to more radiosessions at net year's conclave,probably in Glasgow with dates tobe announced later.

The conference kicked off witha video "case studies" presenta-tion on local TV station promosand trailers by Maryland -basedradio/TV research/marketing con-sultant Jacques de Suer, presidentof McHigh & Hoffman, InnSaturday's luncheon featured avideotaped presentation frommultimedia production executiveSteve Sohmer.

Those talents were rewardedduring Saturday night's Awardsshow, with sculpted 'Hand'awards presented in nine radioand 14 TV categories. Second andthird -place winners received silverand bronze scrolls. BBC Radio 1and 2, Capital Gold and Aire FMdominated the radio categories, asdid the agencies of Hallett Arendtand Brahm Advertising.

Teledisc SponsorsSatellite JukeboxAn 'interactive' video jukeboxwas launched November I onovernight downtime of a channelon the pan-European Astrasatellite, with organisers claimingtechnology used in the voting pro-cess for the non -subscriptionchannel as a first.

Called the Lifestyle SatelliteJukebox and run by WH SmithTelevision in London, it airsvideos chosen on a mean averageof telephone calls made in the 24hours leading up to its midnightto 05.00 broadcast.

It operates a laser disc libraryselection of 75 tracks, updatedmonthly. There is a "limited

amount" of advertising and the,first month on -air is sponsored byTeledisc. It is hoped to attract apermanent sponsor.

However, WHSTV spokes-woman Jill Taylor says the "in-teractive nature of voting" is cur-rently only available on UKtelephone technology, but adds"there is development under wayto go pan-European".

The jukebox airs on the fre-quency which during the day car-ries the subscription LifestyleChannel, also produced byWHSTV, and the independentChildren's Charnel.

MD Makis Matsas, who willoversee the marketing and sellingactivities of both companies, saysthe "joint venture" will allowMinos to "more vigorously pro-mote Greek repertoire abroad".

Alexis Rotelh, MD of EMI Mu-sic Worldwide Europe adds thatthe "association will allow us tocontinue the revitalisation of EMI'sexisting Greek repertoire company,and will develop and strengthen ouroverall business in Greece".

Claims that the deal was actual-

ly a buy-out have been heightenedby PolyGram Greece MD VikoAntypas, who says that Poly -

Gram, plus other companies, wereapproached by Minos about sucha move.

Meanwhile, business communi-ty sources say that Minos's alleg-ed decision to sell to multina-tional EMI was prompted by theapproach of the single Europeanmarket in 1992, which will seemany Greek firms at a com-petitive disadvantage

MEDIA EMI Music Sales Profits SoarThe rapper, the hooker and theTurtles helped EMI Music reachrecord sales and profits for the sixmonths to September 30, the fasthalf of its financial year.

MC Hammer's Please Ham-mer Don't Hurt 'Em album(Capitol) and soundtrack pack-ages from Pretty Woman (EMI)and Teenage Mutant NinaTillles (SBK) were among thecompany's top -selling titles, par-ticularly in the US.

The Sin.d O'Connor albumon Ensign/Chrysalis and tides byWilson Phillips, Heart, Poison,Billy Idol and Queensryche alsomade significant contributions.

EMI Music revenues for theperiod increased to US$ 985.9million from US$ 801.6 million, a23% gain. Pre-tax profits climbedto US$ 82.7 million from US$50.3 million, a 64% surge Aftereliminating the effect of fluc-tuating exchange rates, says thecompany, sales increased by 27%and profit by 55%.

International affiliates in theUK, continental Europe andAustralia added to the recordresults. EMI Music Publishingalso yielded strong sales andincome.

The multinational made noteof its investments during the six

months, including the partnershipwith IRS Records, the joint ven-ture with Greek independent labelMinos Mamas (see page 5) and theopening of a new Taiwan sub-sidiary.

The second -half results willreflect the performance of currentEMI Music releases by the PetShop Boys, Herbert Groenemeyer,Robert Palmer and Paul McCart-ney, plus the US chart -toppingVanilla Ice New releases for theperiod are scheduled by Roxette,Huey Louis and the News, CliffRichard and Bob Seger. 0

Kaas Conflictcontinued m page i

Mademoiselle Chaste, sold morethan one million copies, andmade her the hottest new femalesinger in France.

In August 1989, Kaas informedSchwartz that he was in breach ofcontract with her, and that shewould no longer work with him.Subsequently, she obtained acourt order freezing part ofPoly[ ram's earnings from herfirst album, an amount thoughtto be more than US$ 1 million.That money remains frozen.

Meanwhile, Kaas had formed anew production company, NoteDe Blues, with partners RichardWalter and Cyril Prieur. OnMarch 15, 1990, this firm signed adeal to license the singer's newrecordings to CBS. A few dayslater, CBS released her secondalbum Scene De Vie.

Producer Schwartz counterat-tacked, charging that Kass wasstill contracted to him - under athree-year exclusive agreementsigned in March 1987 - while shewas recording Scene De Vie.

PolyGram joined Schwartz in thisbreach of contact action.

Industry observers say Polydorhead Marc Lumbroso and MainLevy took the departure of Kaas

very personally, especially in viewof her career's meteoric rise afterthe release of MademoiselleChante.

In May this year, a court inNanterre ruled that all CBSrevenues associated with Kassshould be frozen, together with alladvances paid to her by the label.

In June, a conciliatory commis-sion within French trade organisa-tion SNAP tried to settle thedispute, but terms of agreementcould not be reached betweenCBS and PolyGram. In Septem-ber, an appeals court in Versailles(Yvelines) upheld the Nanterreruling.

The blocked CBS royalties mayexceed US$ 6 million, consideringthat Scene De Vie has alreadysold more than 400.000 copies inFrance alone Michel Patent,secretary general of PolyGramFrance, calls the Versailles courtedict "a unique and wry impor-tant decision in the history of themodern music industry inFrance".

De Bodinat is confident, how-ever, that the appeals court judge-ment will not affect the ultimateoutcome of the case "I amwaiting with serenity for justice inthis matter. It will take time,which is why I guess well mach

agreement with PolyGram;' hestates.

The CBS executive adds: "Wewere both competing for Kaas.PolyGram made an even betteroffer than CBS, and the artistchose us. If each time companiescompeting for the same artistbehave like that, where is it goingto end?"

About the court -frozen royal-ties, de Bodinat comments: "Ofcourse it is stupid to haw so muchmoney blocked, but it willgenerate interest, so it can be con-sidered as a normal financial in-vestment. If no interest was paid,it would haw been a real pro-blem!' Sources say the PolyGramrevenues frozen earlier are notsubject to interest income

The various lawsuits face a pro-tracted journey through France'sjudicial system because they are indifferent courts. The breach ofcontract action between Schwartzand Kaas, for instance, should behandled by a labour tribunal inSarregueminm. But that court hassaid the case should mow tomother jurisdiction in Paris,which is then subject to appeal.The outcome of that decision willaffect the fame PolyGramroyalties, and influence the courseof the other suits.

Delegates Look East & Westcontinued from page IEastern Europe Western recordcompanies - including CBS,BMG, PolyGram and EMI - hawexpressed interest in EasternEurope, either by forming joint -ventures with domestic com-panies or by launching their ownaffiliates.

However, the problems con-fronting them are enormous: in-adequate copyright protection, anunderdeveloped retail and distri-

bution apparatus and massivehome taping.

To draw attention to the needfor Eastern European music in-dustries to upgrade and enforcecopyright protection, ManfredZurnkeller, chairman of the Ger-man IFPI group and MichaelICarnstadt, chairman of the Ger-man music publishers' associa-tion, plan to give the issue centrestage at the conference.

Other subjects to be discussedinclude artist management, live

music, music publishing, recordsand music TV and video.

Meanwhile, the attention ofradio delegates is set to focus on apanel discussion on investmentopportunities in Eastern EuropeChaired by Unique BroadcastingCEO Simon Cole, panellists in-clude Martin Brisac, director-general of radio station Europe 2,one of numerous French outletsto have ventured into EasternEurope. For more details seepages 22-26.

BMG, MCA Dealcontinued from page Iand BMG International presi-dent/CEO Rudi Gassner. WarnerMusic International reportedlymade an offer to retain the MCAbusiness; EMI Music was alsosaid to be interested.

Although BMG is effectivelyhelping MCA become a future in-ternational competitor, officialson both sides stress the mutualbenefits. Gassner comments:"This suits our long-term needs,which are for US -originatedrepertoire, and theirs, which arefor starting their own interna-tional repertoire sources!'

Acknowledging that MCA'sworldwide thrust can be seen ascompetitive, Gassner adds: "Thiswas very much at the heart of ourinternal strategic discussions. ButI'm wry pragmatic, and one hasto see the business advantages inthis deal. If we wouldn't do it, so-meone else would.

"This is an add-on situation,since we have an organisation inplace to accommodate the MCAgroup. It's very important we keepour own goals in sight. We thinkwe can do both things at the sametime; growing BMG and develop-ing MCA/Geffen!'

Neither side wants to disclosethe exact term of the agreement,however, nor whether there arejoint -venture options at somelater date.

TALKBACK

"Syndicators Are Not Tyrants Trying To Take Over"Unique Broadcasting celebrates its first anniversary

As Europe's radioindustry develops and

diversifies, so thecompetition hots upamong programme

syndication companies.Unique Broadcasting CEO

Simon Cole spoke toChris Fuller about a year

of rapid growth in theUK, the problems still

facing syndicators and thelure of the East.

I): A year on from Unique'slaunch has the company grownaccording to plan?A: I think were ahead of plan asfar as the size of the company isconcerned. We're now sitting hereat the end of year one with threemore staff than we had when westarted, with bigger offices andwith more product on board.What certainly was not an-ticipated was the demise of PPMRadiowaves and our subsequentacquisition of their productcatalogue. No one could have ex-pected that, yet it was that whichsaw us leap into a position ofmarket leadership. Of course italso brought its own share ofstresses and strains because it

meant we were forced into grow-ing more quickly.

Q: What does the next year hold?A: The game plan is really af-fected by two things. First, ourobvious desire to grow mom Se-cond, recession will be biting deepboth in the UK and across Europeand this will result in a very dif-ficult year for the radio industryin general. We would be very gladto achieve the same growth curveas we've had this year but we haveto be very careful not to putourselves in a vulnerable position.There are going to be a lot offullers in both advertising andradio.

Q: It is no secret you are lookingto establish a base in Paris...A: It is obvious that'lle businesswe're in is a European business,not a UK business. We alreadyhave some kind of name inEurope through our activitieswith MIDEM Radio and the bitsand pieces of programming wehave done with various broad-casters. In fact, we probably havea name in Europe which belies

our activity, but that's quite intertiond because before you dobusiness you need people to knowwho you are and have confidencein you.

In addition we have a clientbase of six or seven blue-chipnames, at least three of whom -Pepsi and FIAT, for example - arepotential pan-European clients.Now with that kind of spring-board were in a very good posi-tion to become extremely active inEurope.

(): How will your Europeanoperation he structured?A: That's really the nub of thequestion. I don't think it's by be-ing Unique Broadcasting in Lon-don making programmes for thewhole of Europe. But I do believethere is a market for companies inEurope which might be owned orpart -owned by us which coulddevelop European programming.I don't think it is right for the UKto export its programmes to con-tinental Europe, in fact quite thereverse. In years to come it mightwell be that continental Europe isplacing stuff in the UK, especiallyrecorded concerts.

The bottom line is, what I thinkwe have to export is our abilities,

knowledge, track record andclients. What I don't think wehave to export is pieces of tape.It's true we are considering Paris.I see us making significant movessoon despite my cautionary noteabout recession.

II: What problems remain forsyndicators in general?A: There are still a lot of peoplewho run radio stations whobelieve syndicators have no part intheir schedules because they can,produce their own programmesjust as well. Fair enough, a lot ofthem can. I think, however, there'sa growing realisation that syn-dicators are not tyrants trying totake over, rather they can actuallybuild audiences and revenues andimprove on what a station does.This is especially tare the morecompetitive a marketplace be-

comes.Them are similar problems in

attracting advertising dollars intowhat we do. Anything that is new,as radio is, is scary as far as adver-tisers are concerned. Therefore,there is a coaxing process in en-

couraging advertisers to believe inradio and that they should findnew budgets for it.

Another problematic area todeal with is the number of tinyoperators who haw sprung up -

from the Us. UK and acrossEurope- because somebody toldthem that syndication was a greatidea. They are dangerous, becausethey don't understand how to setmarket rates and how the businessworks, and can end up upsettingadvertisers and radio stations,muddying the water for the peo-ple who can do it properly. I'msure MCM Networking will echomy view on this because they mustfind it as frustrating es we do.

(I: Are advertisers' attitudessoftening towards syndication?A: Yes. What we have always con-centrated on is getting into ourcamp a reasonably small numberof big clients and working onmaking the relationship with eachof them bigger and bigger. Ratherthan having 12 clients spending£ 100.000 apiece I'd rather havesix spending £ 400.000 in total.And it's not being falsely enthu-siastic to say that most clients whoget involved with radio immedi-ately want to do more because itworks. It's simple, it's effectiveand it's cost efficient. So get acustomer on board and you'veusually got him for a long haul.

Q: What is Unique's policytowards Eastern Europe?A: We are still in the process ofsetting up a live concert series forGosteleradio in the Soviet Union,a direct result of contacts we madeat last year's 'Looking East AndWest' conference. What we'velearned, in the dealings we havehad, is that one must have pa-tience and understanding. Busi-ness practices, especially in

Russia, but also in other parts ofEastern Europe, are very differentfrom ours. Not worse or better,but different. It's a bit like dealingwith the Japanese, you have tounderstand the business cultureand you have to work within thator you are in danger of irritatingpeople and getting nowhere.

It's a big, big learning curve.And things like 'Looking EastAnd West' really do help becausethey serve to broaden our under-standing of one another andenable business to happen morequickly.

(I: What forms of East-Westtransaction do you have in mind?A: One form of barter we are aim-ing at is to provide, for example,Gosteleradio with hard currencyby selling some of the advertisingwithin the programming outsideRussia, but to people who dobusiness in Russia. For exampleclients who operate in the Westbut trade in the East can buy timein the show off us, in the West,and we can pass some of thatmoney, with the programme, onto Gosteleradio. They, therefore,earn hard currency which is whatthey desperately want.

Another thing we have lookedat, though this is perhaps furtherdown the road, is to help Westernbands who tour in the East obtainhard currency. We could record,for example, their Moscow showand pay them, in the West, for theradio rights to that show. C

Star* Sat: OneNation Station

by Robert Lyng

Star*Sat Radio - Germany's firstall -CD private satellite broad-caster - can now be receivedthroughout the country, includingthe five new federal states in theEast.

The station recently beganbroadcasting via TV -SAT 2,

bringing the total number ofsatellites it uses to four. The othersare DFS Kopernikus, ASTRA IAand the Eutelsat ECS 2 -Fl.Star*Sat's service is also avail-able via cable and terrestrial fre-quencies.

Marketing director MartinSchmitz, "On October 3, theday of German reunification, weissued a special 'D' car stickerwith the slogan 'One nation - onestation. We announced this on -airand asked listeners to write to usto request copies of the sticker. Wereceived thousands of replies,30% of which came from the fivenew Eastern states.

Although Star*Sat could beheard as early as 1988 in someparts of the former GDR - viasome privately operated cablesystems and group satellite anten-nas - direct reception is increasingrapidly, as are sales of satellitedishes.

In an attempt to increase the

He adds that the sticker promo-tion also showed that Star*Sat ismore than just a national station"We had requests for stickersfrom Andorra, Belgium, Czecho-slornkia, Denmark, Finland, Ita-ly, Holland, Yugoslavia, Monaco,Norway Luxembourg, Poland,Austria, Sweden, Switzerland,Spain, the UK and Italy We werealso surprised to learn that ourprogramme is included on cablesystems in Holland and Den-mark!'

soundcarriers, particularly therapidly growing CD and CD -single formats. Although 37.7%more standard CDs were sold and48.6% more CD singles, the valueof these two markets rose only bya more modest 26.1% and 28.3%respectively.

Meanwhile, MC sales rose byjust 7.2%, while all other formatsfell back, both in terms of unitssold and value.

Austria permitted parallel im-ports as part of the lowering oftrade barriers in preparation forits hoped forintegration into theEC. Retailers are now per-mitted to acquire product directlyfrom distributors in neighbouringcountries such as Germany, whereit is cheaper, and pass on the dis-count to the consumer. Such salesdo not show up in the IFPIAustria statistics.

However, they have not becomea major problem, according toCBS Austria MD and IFPI mem-ber Heinz -Josef Canibol. "In-stead of Austrian dealers findingit cheaper to buy in Germany, itturned out that the Germandealers found it interesting toenter the Austrian market. Forinstance, the Media Market chainhas opened several outlets here,bringing a new dynamic into themarket!'

Meanwhile, market shares bymusic type have changed littleover last year. International poptook 74.8% of sales, followed byclassical (11.8%), national pop(8.0%) and volksmusik (5.8%).

IR ListeningIndependent radio listening dip-ped in the third quarter of 1990,according to the latest JICRARfigures. Weekly reach fell from50% to 46% with a correspon-ding drop in total hours listenedfrom 276 million to 259.5 million.However, these figures are up on089 results and there was also anincrease in average hours listenedfrom 12.9 to 13.3.

James Galpin of the RadioMarketing Bureau says the drop isdue to "minor fluctuations inlistening levels. It's good to seemost of 1R's audience gains con-solidated and we confidently ex-pect to see further growth as moreof the new stations are included inthe JICRAR surveys".

Only three stations took part inthe JICRAR Wave III survey -Manchester's Piccadilly Radio,plus Somerset's Orchard FM andsouth east London communitystation RTM, both of which arepublishing their first audienceresults.

Piccadilly Radio's reach for itsFM and AM services fluctuatedwith Key 103 FM down 1% to22% while Piccadilly Gold AM

"The demo-graphics have sorted themselvesout and we've stopped the declineOn Key 103 we had a concentra-tion of 35 -plus listeners while theyounger listeners were still withthe AM service.

"Since August we've fine-tunedour music base and improved thebranding of both services whichhas given people a better idea ofwhat they're listening to. Totalhours for the Gold service areup by 19% and we're gettingmore of the 25 -plus listeners!'

Orchard FM had a 24% reachwith 8.4 average hours which MDDavid Rodgers says is "in theright ball park for a station that'snot yet a year old.

Awareness Of NewLondon Stations IncreasesAwareness of London's new radiostations has grown significantlyduring the autumn. A survey forMelody Radio at the beginning ofSeptember carried out by Ques-tionAir Marketing Research gaveKiss FM a 35% awareness levelfollowed by Jam FM 31770 andMelody 26%.

But a later survey carried outon October 22 by MarketResearch Enterprises gave KissFM 42%, Melody 41% and JamFM 37%. However, unpromptedawareness was considerably lowerwith Kiss FM scoring 21%,Melody 16% and Jam FM 12%.

Although the stations them-selves am cautiously optimistic,Jerry Fielder, media director atLeagas Delaney, who worked onJazz FM's launch says the figuresare good news. "If they were laun-ching a new brand of baked beansthey'd be jumping with delight atthis level of awareness:' he says.

"These are specialist stationsand target audiences who don'tyet know what frequency they areon. I think it takes a long time toget that through. It's not aboutmoney, it's about continuity. Forthe launch you have to aim aswidely as possible and then youshould start aiming at your targetaudience!"

Jazz FM head of communica-tions Jonathan Abbott confirmsthat the station's current cam-paign is "telling people where weare on the dial and what weplaying". The campaign is mainlyin national newspapers althoughAbbott adds: "We shall probablygo into TV again. The trouble isthat when the time comes for thesecond push to establish thestation, that's when the money istightest:'

Liz Little at Lowe HowardsSpit* who worked on the Melody

launch says it's too early to judgethe effect of the station's cam-paign. "When the currentJICRAR survey results arepublished in February we'll beable to make a proper assess-ment!'

But station manager SheilaPorritt says that Melody'sresearch shows that the stationhas a better relationship betweenlistening and awareness than anyother London IR station apartfrom Capital. "And those who areaware of Melody, are listening toit, like what they hear and theabsence of DJ patter. What'smore, Melody listeners say theyare listening to the radio morethan they did before!'

Debbie Garvey, account direc-tor at BBDO which handled KissFM's launch, says: "We're pleas-ed with the figures. As the marketgets more competitive it's increas-ingly difficult to target your au-dience.

"Our aim was to tell peoplethat the station is legally back onair and where to find it. The pro-blem was how best to deploy ourbudget to reach socially activeyoung Londoners as they travell-ed, watched or read. We used TVfor the pre -launch and the launchweekend but since then we've con-centrated on the style press,cinemas and lobe and bus postersto reach the notoriously difficult16-24 age range And we areachieving our target audiencefigures!'

1:111211IMM21--Flemish Govt. Considers

Regional Radio Proposalby Marc Mars

The Flemish parliament is con-sidering legislation which wouldsee regional outlets in Flandersfor the first time.

The legislation was formallyproposed on November 2 by threemembers of the liberal party(PVV) in Flanders: Andre Denys,chairman of the PVV in theFlemish council and a member ofthe media commission; partypresident Guy Verhofstadt; andMP Dirk ran Mechelen.

Denys says he hopes the legisla-tion will lead to four or fiveregional stations in each of thefive provinces in Flanders andbelieves they should compete withthe region's public broadcasterBRT.

"There will be two types ofprivate radio in Flanders!' says

Andre Denys

Denys, "professional regional sta-tions with a 30 kilometre radiusand strong advertising, and thenthe small local stations, aiming atlocal communities!'

He adds: "It is very importantto note that we are not talkinghere about a Flemish communitycommercial station like that pro-posed by VTM (M&M October27). Such an outlet would meanthat more space would have to bemade on the dial so if it gets thego-ahead, the government wouldhave to re -arrange the frequenciesgiven to BRT!'

Frank I.eysen, chairman ofVebora, a private lobby grouprepresenting 100 stations, says theproposed legislation conflictswith the anti -network law passedlast month (M&M November 3).

"On one hand the governmentis trying to restrict the growth ofprivate outlets, but on the other itis planning to introduce regionalstations.

"We had a meeting on the sub-ject on November 6 and am veryconcerned about the future ofsmall outlets. Personally, I believethat the French community hascome up with a better solution -inevery city there are small stationswith 1W kW and then biggeroutlets with 1000 kW. But inFlanders them is just not enoughroom on the dial!'

A decision on the proposal isnot expected until early net year.

Soer Confirms DecemberLaunch For Concert Radio

by Paul Andrews

The relaunch of Concert Radio,the classical arm of Amsterdam -based satellite -to -cable stationRadio 10, has been set back toDecember 15. The station blamesunspecified "technical problems"for missing its originally schedul-ed October on -air date.

However, Radio 10 head of pro-grammes Jeroen Soer says the newdate is "definite'. He adds thatConcert Radio has alreadynegotiated carriage on mostDutch cable nets, giving it an in-itial reach of at least 3.2 millionhomes. "We will supply it to themfree. They must undertake to payperformance rights, althoughsince most of the composers havebeen dead for more than 50 years,these will be minimal!'

The service, with a minimalspeech content, is also seekingcarriers elsewhere in Europe, andcan be heard by home dish -owners via its feed on the Filmnet

Benelux TV channel of therecently -launched Eutelsat II Flsatellite. This makes it a directcompetitor to Germany'srecently -launched Klassik Radioand RTL's planned pan-Europeanclassical station.

Unlike Klassik Radio, however,the station has for the time beingrejected plans to use a CD -qualitydigital satellite channel. "We werediscussing that:' says Soer, "andeventually we will go digital. Butwe first have to have more digitalradios available!'

Concert Radio will be sup-ported by sponsorship, with nospot ads. Sc. claims a number ofsponsors have already been signedup, but refuses to name them. Afinal schedule is still being drawnup, but programming is expectedto concentrate on `serious' classi-cal music - in contrast to KlassikRadio which programme a highproportion of `light' classics. 0

Burm Leaves IndiscIndisc Benelux MD Bert Burmhas left the company followingdisagreements over policy, accor-ding to Herman Heinsbroek,president of Arcade

Heinsbroek; "His departurewas mutually agreed and in anamicable way, despite the fact thatthere haw been some basic dif-ferences of opinion between Bertand myself concerning Indisc'sfuture company policy!'

He adds that Indisc will soonbe renamed Arcade Music,because too many companies inEurope have 'disc' in their title.However, he says the label willcontinue to be called Indisc.

Indisc will now be handled byWillem v. Schijndel, GM of In -disc Holland, and RichardDedapper, GM of Indisc Belgium.Dedapper: "Our key labels willremain the same but we will closethose that fail to be profitable. Ialso believe that we will have moreMOR product in the future"

In August, Sjaak de Bruijnresigned as GM of Indisc Hollandfollowing differences of opinionwith Bunn. De Bruijn says hewanted the company to invest in abroad repertoire, but was, how-ever, unsuccessful in his bid to winsupport from Indisc Belgium. 0

SCANDINAVIARadio 7 Strengthens Ad Bid

by David Rowley

One of Sweden's most progressivepublic local radio stations, Radio7, has just been relaunched withmajor new studio facilities andfaster -paced, top 40 style shows.

The move comes as speculationincreases over the eventual intro-duction of commercial radio inSweden and whether it will beprivates or public local stationswhich are eventually allowed torun advertising.

The revamped Radio 7, which isbased in the town of Boraas, 70kilometres west of Gothenburg,has a broadest radius of 50 kilo-metres although the signal can bepicked up as far away as Gothen-burg and the Norwegian frontier.

Station manager PC Jorgen-sen says the new facilities costaround Skr 6 million (app. US$ 1million). "They include threefully computerised broadcast andrecording studios and two news-rooms, which will put the station

in a strong position to be con-sidered for a commercial licence:

"We are very close to commer-cial radio in Sweden and I believethere is a very good chance thatthe 25 public local stations will bethe main ones allowed to carryadvertising!"

He adds there is general agree-ment within the government thatlocal public radio is expensive andthat further increases in the an-nual TV/radio licence fee are notpossible, so making the local sta-tions commercial is a logical step.However, some of the larger sta-tions may also be allowed to carryadvertising.

The new -look Radio 7 broad-casts 13 hours per day with theprescribed 50:50 speech -musicratio set down in the local publicradio charter. But the station hasalready made a move towards astronger music policy with its top40/CHR-formatted programmes.

Denmark Revises Sales AwardsIFPI Denmark has cut the num-ber of sales required to achievegold and platinum record status,and has completely abolished thealbum silver award. Until the deci-sion, Denmark had, with Nor-way, the highest award levels percapita of any Europe. country.

"The reason for the change weeto harmonise our levels with thoseof other countries:' says IFPIDenmark chairman Stafan Fry -land. "For instance, Germany re-quires 250.000 sales for a goldalbum award. We needed 50.000and the German market is 16

times bigger than °liarRequirements for platinum

albums decrease from 100.0W to80.000, gold album awards from50.0W to 40.000. Single awardshave also been cut from 50.000 to

20.090 units for platinum, andfrom 25.000 to 10.000 for gold.Fryland says the heavy reductionsin single requirements acknow-ledge the declining market for theformat in Denmark.

However, some observerswithin the Danish record businesssay that the cuts are not enoughand still leave the small Danishmarket out of step with those ofcomparable size

"We should be on the samefooting as countries the size ofAustria, Belgium and Switzer-land!' says one such critic, "with50.000 for platinum and 25.000for gold. It's very difficult toachieve these traditional symbolsof record business excellence ifthey're ridiculously high. It can be.bad for morale!' Fl

Municipal Stations WinCommittee Ad Approval

by James Bourne

Spain's proposed municipal radiostations are set to win approval toair advertising, despite strong lob-bying by private radio associationAERP.

A parliamentary committeesaid on November 7 that the out-lets should be permitted to carry"commercial, institutional andpolitical" advertising. However,the proposal still has to be ratifiedby the full parliament.

Meanwhile, right wing opposi-tion party Partido Popular has ac-cused the ruling socialists ofcreating a "political tool" in timefor local elections next May andalso says that the stations would

rer. enve

represent unfair competition toexisting private local outlets.

However, other politicians be-lieve that even if the law is approv-ed before the end of this year, it isunlikely that any of the new sta-tions would be operational byMay.

The government has not yetrevealed how many municipalradio licences will be madeavailable But Telecommunica-tions director-general JavierNadal admits that there is not suf-ficient room on the dial for all ofSpain's 8.000 municipal councilsto run such a service.

Steering Selector TowardsSelector, the US music schedulingsystem, will benefit from Italy'snewly -introduced broadcast legi-slation, according to Mario Sem-prini, distributor of the softwarethroughout national territory.

Semprini, MD at the Milan -based Radio System Sound com-pany, has installed the system in19 commercial stations since 1987.But he predicts that the numberWill leap to 30 by the end of thisyear.

"Finally, there is a law after 16years of unrestricted broadcast-ing!' says Semprini. "Stationowners will now have a licence tooperate They will be legal and candecide how and what to invest.Before, many were limited in whatthey could do as they were beingasked to spend money withoutany guarantee, Until the newlegislation was introduced no onequite knew what their legal statuswas, or was likely to be!'

Semprini shares the views ofmany in the Italian radio industrythat it will take up to two yearsbefore significant legal changesare enforced.

"Station owners are hungry forsomething new and I can fed thatthe market is really changingnow;' he says. "There is an in-creased recognition that program-ming needs to change They seeresults from a station such as theBergamo -based RTL 102.5 HitRadio, which has almost doubledits audience since introducingSelector, and it makes them veryseriously.

Semprini, who believes the in-troduction of formatted radio willrevolutionise the country's radio,is dismissive about some stationswhich already claim a format."Formats at many stations aremade up of the single ideas of dif-ferent DJs with a variety of showsbeing the result. But a real format

Crash Can't Halt Baglioni CampaignA wrecked Porsche, 20 stitches to

release date But despite his set-back, Baglioni talked for an houras a guest on the November 15showing of the 'Maurizio Costan-zo Show', aired on Silvio Berlus-coni's Canals 5.

It was the first time the showhas been devoted to one guest andnews of his appearance was adver-tised for 10 days on Berlusconi'sthree commercial network chan-nels.

The crash hasn't sloppedBaglioni pressing ahead with hisoriginal promotional commit-ment to radio. He will be inter-vinved live on state channel RaiStereo Due on November 26. Hisappearance is being advertised onall three state TV channels.

CBS marketing director Fabri-zio confirms that Rai radiowas the first broadcaster to receivean advance track from the albumfor airplay. Private stations receiv-ed the track three days before theLP's release.

Intro belie,es that radio airplayis a crucial promotional tool for

Cloutho Bognor],

Baglioni. "He hasn't released astudio album for five years. Peo-ple are hungry for Baglioni'smusic but, as there aren't any per-formance dates scheduled, radiois the only way he can be heard!'

Ottre is a double album con-taining 20 new songs. It includesguest appearances from nationalartists Pino Daniele and Celia

Martini. International guests in-clude Pino Paladini, Youssou N'Dour and Paco De Lucia.

The album has sold 5W.000units in advance orders accordingto Infra. Purchasers who par-ticipated in a CBS campaign inDecember 1989 will receive aspecially packaged version of theLP, which will include a two -metre high poster.

Selector, he says, will helpchange the market and in Januarynon year the company is launch-ing the first stage of a programmeaimed a( educating national broad-caster,

Semprini: "Inhally we will in-vite DJs and music programmersfrom interested stations to a two-day session where we will explainthe possible uses and benefits ofSelector. We will be inviting pro-grammers from the US andFrance to talk about formats andhow they may be adapted to workin the post -legislation market.Semprini also intends to open aschool in the future which will beaimed at giving Rh and pro-gramme directors more softwareknowledge

"Selector is only a moll' saysSemprini. "It gives programmersthe means to develop their ideasinto strategies. But, I always tellpeople, if they don't have theirown ideas then they shouldn'tsubscribe Selector is like a power-ful Ferrari but if you can't driveyou'll spin off the road im-mediately!'

Radio Five ClosureRadio Five, the new company setup by Silvio Berlusconi's Finin-vest group to produce and sellradio programmes, has closedbefore working on any shows.

Rosario Pacini, former direc-tor-general of the company, con-firming the closure said: "Thecontroversy provoked by com-petitors regarding our entry intothe radio sector resulted in thedecision not to pursue our ac-tivities in such a modest market.We will concentrate our efforts onsomething much more importantin the future!'

Pacini claims that Fininvest'sintended intervention was meantto be an act of support and en-couragement to the private radiosector but was not seen as such bythe Italian broadcasting industry.

Consorzio Italian Per 1,6

Radiophonia, a consortium madeup of 15 local stations whichRadio Five had intended to workwith, will continue to produce itsown programmes. Fininvest willhave no involvement whatsoeverin the consortium but Pacini doesnot rule out a future entry into theradio sector. "We don't rule outanything. We will always be readyto intervene, that is if the marketevolves in positive wad.'

Din-,ensione JoinsPepsi ForRadio Dimension, the Rome -based private network, has signeda new sponsorship deal with Pep-si -Cola. The station first teamedup with Pepsi in May this year toco -promote the Italian dates ofTina Thrner's world tour. Pepsialso sponsored all the station'schart shows during the samemonth.

Pepsi is now sponsoring thenew Saturday night programme'Dimension Dance' which is

aired from 22.00 to 02.00. The sta-tion has broadcast its own, self -produced, dance music program-mes for the last 10 years but thenew series is an Italian version of'Hot Mrs', a successful US pro-gramme produced by RadioExpress.

Dimension's prop -amine direc-tor, Bruno Ployert "Radio Ex-press will supply us with the musiconly and we will insert the voicesof our Ells in the appropriatebreaks. We have been offered the

Hot Mixshow for a year and are hoping itwill attract an audience shghtlyyounger than our current targetdemographic!'

SPOT LIGHTPaolo ContePaolo Conte's new album,'Parole DAmore Scritte A

Placchina; was launchedwith a European press

presentation in Hollandon November 9. As

David Stansfield reports,the LP sees both Conte

and his record companybreaking new ground.

With the release of Pa-nolo D'Amore ScritteMacchina (Words Of

Love Written On A Typewriter),CGD has entered a new phase inits development. Previously, thecompany has licensed product inforeign territories, but WarnerMusic Italy's takeover last yearhas enabled the Conte album tobe released simultaneously inlimn European countries

The LP which like Conte'sprevious releases was produced byhis manager Renzo Fantini - wasreleased in Italy, Germany, Aus-tria, Switzerland, the Benelux andFrance on November 12. Spainand Scandinavia, plus Canadaand Japan, will follow shortly.

Rainer Focke, marketing mana-ger at London -based WarnerMusic Europe, says promotioncampaigns are being handled byeach territory. He adds: "Themain aim is to get this albumacross to a larger number ofpeople than his previous releases.The Benelux, France, Germanyand Spain are the key territories,but once he has success in thesecountries the fire will spread andmore attention will be paid tocampaigns elsewhere, such as inthe UK.

"To date, Conte has not been asingles artist so it is very impor-tant to convey his personality tothe public Media interviews andprint advertising will make peopleaware that the album is out andwill hopefully be backed by

airplay. The second phase willcome during his European tournet year.

"Another important aspect inincreasing awareness will be in-store campaigns and his visits tovarious territories will boost retailsales. We will be also looking atthe more serious magazines aswell as pop magazines!"

Focke says that radio promo-tion will focus on the "moresophisticated shows and stationswhich play music that's nothappening singles -wise in thecharts", and gives the example ofKlassik Radio in Germany.

"The station not only airsclassical music but jazz andsophisticated material as well. Wewill also be looking at specificshows which air album features!'

In Italy, where Conte is now ontour, CGD marketing directorStefano Senardi says he expectsthe album to benefit from theincreased popularity in locallyproduced music.

"Conte has scored better in

France and Holland with airplayin the past, due to the attitude ofItalian broadcasters to localmusic But there is more interestnow, you just have to look at thesuccess of national music -onlystations'

Sandi says the Italian cam-paign is focusing on the press, TVand retailers. "We will concen-trate on 200 retail outlets, two-thirds of which will have fullwindow displays!'

State TV channel RAI I

recently devoted four minutes toConte and his new LP in one of itsmain news broadcasts and CGD isfollowing it up with 15 -secondspots on all three state channels.

A spot campaign on the musicchannel VideoMusic will follow.

Sometimes described as astrange cross between RandyNewman and Tom Waits, Conte'sfirst album was released in 1974.However it was not until 1985 thathe gained international attention,during a series of concerts at theTheatre de la Ville in Paris.

He went on to score success inHolland with a gold disc for thealbum Aguaplano (1988), whichCGD says sold 190.o00 units inItaly, and a platinum disc for theCollegione LP, released in theBenelux only. Conte's lag LP wasPaolo Conte Live, a doublealbum which sold 100.000 units inItaly.

stations responded soquickly to the challengeof Eastern Europe! Is itfor the political kudos,

the money, to promoteFrench -language productor pure altruism? For, as

Jacqueline Eacott reports,most of those involved

hare a mixture of motives.

One reason for the Frenchradio invasion intoEastern Europe is the

way the French radio industry hasdeveloped at home. During thelast decade them has been an ex-plosion of amateur, turningquickly professional, FM stationsinvading the airwaves. If NAT canstart up in an attic, why should amajor European radio networknot rise from the ashes of theCold War? Add geographical pro-ximity, overwhelming confidenceand sound financial backing andthe strictly long-term opportuni-ties are too good to miss.

The entrepreneurs heading eastfall roughly into three groups;firstly, the smaller private human-itarian/political initiatives such asthe Bucharest station set up byParis's Radio Nova and Actuelmagazine (Radio du 22 Decem-bre), one of the first on the air inRomania and keeping a typicallylow profile. Another example isRadio Pologne, the stationcreated by regional FM stationRadio 2, which went to Polandlast February with the aim of fill-ing Polish supermarkets with thelocal produce of Bourg-en-Bresse

At the other extreme, RadioNostalgia, backed by the Frenchgovernment through Radio Mon-te Carlo and Sofirad, announceda long-term agreement last Aprilwith Gosteleradio, the SovietUnion's broadcasting company,to put Nostalgic on the air inMoscow.

Similarly, France's public net-work Radio France (which hadpreviously exchanged culturalprogrammes with Gosteleradio, asdid Georges Polinski's Kiss FM)and Radio France International(RFI) established stronger linkswith Gosteleradio networks suchas Radio Mayak.

In between lie the French com-mercial stations which see EasternEurope in the wider context of

22

long term European development.They are not them simply as

cultural ambassadors - theirmotives am largely commercial.Although initially forced to relaytheir own French -language pro-grammes, the ultimate aim, legi-slation perntitting, is to broadcastlocally produced programmes inthe station's native language. Allthe major French stations are im-plicated, although leaders Rn.and NR1 would appear to bebiding their time.

However, given the economic,political and legal instabilities ofeach country, the French stationsdo not expect to see any real pro-fits for a number of years. Thecurrent emphasis is on adventureand risk. The greatest risk wouldappear to be Romania (every sta-tion - apart from Fun Radio - hasa 'we were offered a station in

MIrpna Ram

Bucharest but turned it downstory'), followed by the SovietUnion, whose potential is tootempting to resist. Poland andCzechoslovakia are classed as

theoretically safer bets."The first independent radio in

Romania" is how Mirjana Robindescribes Fun's station at theUniversity Of Bucharest. AsFun's director of information anddevelopment she was largelyresponsible, together with presi-dent Benoit Sillard, for getting theproject wider way last Januaryand keeping it going. The station,owned by Fun Radio (70%),University students (30%) and aRomanian travel agency (10%),was created after Sillard arrivedwith food, clothing, medical sup-plies and broadcasting equipmentat the end of December.

"The station was closed downfor four days in May, just beforethe first elections. That was nocoincidence, material disappear-

ed, we lost the studio and the teamwas threatened)' says Robin. "Butin two days we had found a newhome, installed a new studio andwere back on the air at 06.00 onthe Monday after the elections.We remain essentially Fun Radio -broadcasting youth music - butwith a team there to make localprogrammes, which include

cultural and news magazines - en-tirely in Romanian, 24 hours aday'

And the political difficulties?"In an unstable situation it is nor-mal to be unstable, We are com-pletely legal - nothing is going tostop this station, but the wholecountry is unstable It is not anymore difficult for us. We have

The Polish music industry is onthe threshold of significantchange with Polskie Nagraniaand Tbnpress about to be pri-vatised. Though private com-panies have existed here foryears, they are now having tocope with severe difficulties, in-cluding shortages of studios andpaper for sleeve production.

Joint ventures with Westemcompanies, including Japan, arebeing seen as a way ahead.Many companies are trying tomake do with foreign materialproduced in Poland underlicence, which has led to a shor-tage of Polish recordings.

Domestic repertoire is nowurgently needed to feed a poten-tially large market. The many

Polish rock bands, mainly heavymetal, have hordes of fans, butfew recordings.

The relationship between themedia and the record industryremains poor, even though radioand TV are vital for launchingrecorded music And promotersinsist that concerts in Poland areunprofitable (high cost of venuerental, power and transport)unless tickets are priced ridicu-lously high.

In the meantime, bootlegrecordings flourish, untroubledby the authorities. Pirates trans-fer CD recordings of world hitsto cassettes and sell them for theequivalent of US$ 1.50.

Since the turn of the year, theCzech music scene has altered asmuch as the political/economicsituation. Singers and groupspreviously banned are now freeto perform live and on recordand a number of artists havereturned from exile.

The changes have seen thebreaking of state monopolies inrecord and music publishing,and concert promotion, with theprivate sector now mushroom-ing. Imported/licensed productis still rare, with Czech currencynot yet convertible. Imports ac-count for around 10.10 of totalsales but should increase quicklyover the next two years.

Major companies from theWest, including CBS and EMI,are expected to launch Czech -based operations, and a growingnumber of smaller Western in -dies are now releasing producthere. With much more productavailable and an increase in therange of other consumer goodsnow openly on sale a top albumwill sell around 30.000 units.Pre-recorded cassettes and CDsare starting to take larger slicesof the market.

The group is also waiting fornew media laws to be passed inHungary before signing any con-tracts them Meanwhile, the pro-posed project with the East Ger-man youth radio station 1FT64 hasbeen thwarted by German reuni-fication which has thrown EastGerman radios into the com-petitive West German sector.However, Europe 1 is not relin-quishing its European ambitions:"We am currently investigatingother projects in Germany, it is avery promising market!'

RFM and M -Radio (created byB -Cum, 70% owned by PierreBellinger, president of Skyrock)announced protocol agreementsin Russia and Poland somemonths ago but, to date, neitherstation has started broadcasting.Although they have now beengiven administrative approval, thestations are also waiting for newmedia laws to be passed in bothcountries, before being allocatedfrequencies.

As Andrew Manderstam, presi-dent of RFM explains: "We havehad the approval of the ministryof post and telecommunicationsfor our transmitters in Leningradand Moscow, including the allo-cation of the frequency in Lenin-grad. We am still waiting forclarification on various items,such as news authorisation. Itnow appears that the local towncouncil has to give its approvaltoo We are very cautious inpredicting what will and will nothappen!'

Manderstam, who originallyexpected to be on the air in May,prefers to sm the advantages ofthe situation: "In the meantimesome of our competitors havebeen operating en temporary fre-quencies. We do not want to dothis. We feel that the market in theSoviet Union is still very under-developed and that any operatorthere is going to be investing in thefuture and not in the present.

The Bulgarian music scene ispoor in terms of organisationand international publicity. Keypositions in all areas of theentertainment business are

monopolised by the state and allstores carry the same Balkantonproduced and, occasionally im-ported titles from neighbouringcountries.

Balkanton has its own pro-blems too, not least the shortageof vinyl and paper. The com-pany is increasingly looking to

forge links with operations inthe West.

The new political situationhas meant many private/in-dependent retailers setting up inbusiness, but they find the goingtough. Home taping is a seriousproblem. It is estimated that80% of blank tapes sold in

Bulgaria are used to duplicateLPs and CDs from the West,which are later sold in privateshops or on the smets.

Europe 2 and Radio Nostalgic,Radio MI in Vilnius is pioneer.ing a build-up of local indepen-dent stations. Cable TV willdevelop fart, especially sincehome video is beyond the meansof most Soviet families.

Counting the costThe majority of stations movinginto Eastern Europe are reluctantto reveal the costs involved so far.None we likely to speak of im-mediate profits. Advertising is anexpanding, but currently unreli-able, source of revenue. With au-dience polls yet to be developedand Western marketing techni-ques difficult to apply, the sta-tions are finding it hard to judgethe size of their audiences withany accuracy.

Mirjana Robin declined to giveany investment figures but ad-mits: "When you are present inRomania, Poland and Czecho-slovakia and plan to open five OTsix new stations, then obviously itis a reasonable investment. Profits- both financial and in terms ofnotoriety -will come from a Euro-pean network. And despite thechaotic situation in Bucharest, wealready have some returns themThe investments are not enonmous at the moment, but they willincrease as the political situationevolves.

"I firmly believe that in allthese countries we can createradio stations which bring inmoney. As for short term profits,it is very difficult to say. We hopeto attract advertising from com-panies in France and other Euro-pean countries, and why not theUS? If a station is the only in-dependent one in Poland, for ex -

Andrew Manderstam is moreforthcoming: "We have taken afairly cautious view. We have notinvested a single cent at this stage.My only personal regret is that weare not on the air already, but weare encountering the same dif-ficulties as our colleagues. Our in-vestment is likely to be around£ 50.000-100.000 over a period oftwo to three years, not a hugeamount of money, but I do not seeany immediate return on that.

in the industry is that while thereare enormous opportunities, therewards are not going to be verybig. And since we are not govern-ment owned, like Nostalgic, weneed to do things on a commercialbasis, so we are slightly morereluctant than them to jump inuntil all the legislation has beenproperly cleared.

SCANDINAVIA

Media Legislation - The Story So Far1990 has been an

important year formedia developments

in Scandinavia, still seenby many as the most

regulated region inWestern Europe.

David Rowley assessesthe impact of the

changes so far.

Despite the moves to libe-ralise Scandinavian me-dia law, there are many

vestiges remaining of the statemonopolies of the past (and, inSweden, of the present). But thereis light at the end of the tunnel,even though at times it may seemvery dim.

SwedenThe most significant event overallhas probably been the "OK inprinciple,' given to commercialterrestrial TV. In September, theruling Social Democrats gave thego-ahead for all -party discussionson the introduction of some kindof commercial TV, either withinthe current Sveriges TV two -channel structure or in the shapeof a new channel.

Although the same SocialDemocrats made no mention ofradio (there is no legal commer-cial radio in Sweden), observers,particularly the private "naer-radio" local radio stations, believewith the TV barrier down, com-mercial radio will eventuallycome.

Currently, the naerraclios are defacto commercial stations - onlywithout the commercials. Thesystem, which to outsiders seemsbizarre, is based on almost feudallines, with each stations ope-rating expenses paid by a backeror benefactor. These backers,predominantly religious, politicalor union groups, receive airtime in

return to put their case, some-times in the form of advertisingspots or jingles.

Them are, of course, many sta-dons that have no further ambi-tions other than to be simple com-munity stations. But them am anumber, such as the SAF-backedstations in Stockholm, Gothen-burg and Malmo, which are the'heirs apparent' to modern com-mercial radio when it is in-

troduced.Of course, not everybody has

bem content to sit back and allowthe snail's -pace of Swedish poli-tics to take its course. Radio Novain Vagnharad, about 80 kilo-metres south of Stockholm, hasdirectly challenged the Swedishlaw by beginning to broadcast afull schedule of advertising, start-ing back in June

As well as declaring theSwedish laws on advertising "un-constitutional", the station madeit plain its decision was a result of"economic necessity". But, never-theless, the Nova situation hasbecome the subject of intensemedia interest and is a politicalembarrassment which refuses togo away.

The local radio body, Naerra-dionamnden, which is meant toregulate these stations, has madefutile attempts to stop RadioNova. It has cancelled its backers'broadcast licences at the rote ofone a month. However, Nova hasaround 12 different backers (aluxury few other statiOns of thiskind have), and with five of thewdown at the time of writing, theystill have another seven to go.

In the meantime, everyone elseis sitting in the wings, waiting forpolitics to take its course Many ofthem believe this will lead to theousting of the Social Democratsat next September's elections andtheir replacement by a coalition of

centre and right wing parties, allof whom have declared them-selves publicly to be in favour ofradio advertising.

Norway and DenmarkIn neighbouring Norway andDenmark there are hundreds ofprivate local stations which areable to broadcast advertising. Butthe hangover of state control stilllingers.

In each country, since localradio came out of its trial period,commercial radio stations havebeen burdened with a special levyon advertising income

stations such as Radio 1 in Osloand The Voice, Radio Vibourgand Uptown in Denmark. Inaddition, certainly in Denmark,stations which are genuinelyserious commercial operationshave kept the stations themselvesas financial shells, with adrevenue going to subsidiary com-panies which am not liable for thetax or with sales made at ar-tificially low mtes. The reality isthat income from the tax has beenlower than expected and has put aharsh burden on stations whicham still very much at the develop-ment stage.

The theory is that the success-ul, profitable stations pay a pro-

portion of their profits into ageneral fund. Stations which areeither non-commercial, com-munity based, or in financial dif-ficulty, can apply for a subsidyfrom this fund and stay inoperation.

The reality is vastly different.The general public has largely ig-nored the well-meaning com-munity stations and completelyembraced the straight -ahead pop

In Denmark, particularly, radioas an advertising medium sufferedbadly from the introduction ofthe commercial TV station TV2 in1988, which began attracting avast amount of the ad revenue.Although Norway has not had tocontend with the introduction ofcommercial TV yet, things havestill been hard. A survey by thelocal radio body, the Norsk RadioForbund, found around half ofthe country's 3M odd stations

concentrated on Irish music,followed by tracks along thetheme of miracles. NRK's morn-ing show had an equal split ofnews and music. Finland's Radio-mafia mixed music and satire,covering dance, heavy metal andOldie bands.

Three of the four private sta-tions concentrated heavily onmusic, with Radio Viborg andRadio City averaging 14 tracks inthe hour, Viborg including sevenoldies. Helsinki private Radio

Ettan added a business news slotinto its musical mix.

Oslo's Radio I strayed awayfrom station policy on having nomore than three minutes of chatbetween tracks by broadcastingan extended feature on theforthcoming beer festival. How-ever, in its afternoon program-ming, Radio I matches the tempodisplayed by the privates else-

where.

were in financial difficulties.This has finally forced the

respective governments to have arethink about the tax. In Norway,legislation has just been passedwhich will see the current 161/4levy cut to Pio.

In Denmark, legislation is notso far advanced. The minister forcommunications, Intim. Rechen-dorff, has said the abolition ofthe tax is possible by the end ofthe year, with a search currentlyunder way for alternative methodsof fmancing any further "rescue"fund.

One of the year's most in-teresting developments was thelaunch by Copenhagen's The

Voice, of its satellite/cable service,The Voice Of Scandinavia. TheVoice, one of the pioneers ofDanish private radio, has used alegal loophole to begin what isessentially Denmark's first na-tional commercial radio station,although outside Copenhagen itcan onlybe picked up through thecable network or by satellite dish.

FinlandFinland, which has had privateradio since 1985, the longest ofany Scandinavian countries, pro-vides a possible indicator of boshpublic broadcasters will react inthe other territories as the influ-ence of commercial broadcastingincreases.

In March, a Gallup surveyshowed the privates significantlypoaching more of the publicbroadcaster YLE's listeners, withYLE coming out on top in onlyfour of the 31 regions surveyed.

In June, YLE reacted to this at-tack by relaunching its secondchannel as a pop -based stationaimed primarily at the under -30s.The new project was renamedRadiomaila and programmingwas segmented into formatsdepending largely on the taste ofthe individual DJ.

The first indication of the suc-cess of this radical restructurecame in September, when a YLEsurvey showed Radiomafm reach-ing 251/4 of the population, 29'/oof its target group.

It's a busy week for me again. Thistime I'm off to the Looking EastAnd West conference in Hungary.(Well you can't be studio bound fortoo long can you?) There is a prettyimpressive line-up of Eastern Euro-pean bands taking part, I must say.Can't mention them all, but thereseem to be a fair amount of hardrock acts (Bohemian Heart, Edda,&moon) and solo female singers(Sandi - described as `Brenda leebyte', Gosia, Zoltan Erika, Dora).It will also be good to see Yugo-slavia's Bajega & The Instructors,who sell around 200.000 copies perLP, and Lombard from Poland,who have sold 700.009 albums overthe past 10 years. Actually I'm mostfascinated by the sound of Sovietband Lead Fog, who base some oftheir lyrics on Russian translationsof Shakespeare and Byron!

I was doing a spot of purl -limeplugging last week - don't let myPC know - when I was struck bythe curious resemblance betweenMetro's mighty programmer GilesSquire and his opposite number atBBC's Radio Newcastle, DeemTanner. It wasn't just professionalrivahy I noticed between the two ofthem but sib* rivalry as well.They're brothers, but I gather theyget on better than the Everlys.

There are dark mutterings fromBMG plugger; about the lack ofairplay for Paul 'Garza' Gaspgoigne's rap version of Fog On TheTyne with original artists Lin-

disfarne, despite its top 20 entry inthe first week of release But I thinkit proves what pluggen have alwaysdenied: that programme controllersdo have van.

My best wishes to producer,writer and all-round good guy TonyHale who A due out of London'sGuys Hospital this week after akidney transplant I hope his ex -

se of his mobile phonewhile recuperating didn't upset allthat sensitive dialysis equipment inthe ward.

Fascinating to see just who cameout of the woodwork for TheGrateful Dead's London concertduring their European tour. HMG

UK's chairman John Preston rolledback the years with the best ofthem while others old enough tohave seen the band last time around- and were talking nearly 20 yearsago - marvelled at the way the newgeneration of hippies have slippedinto their parents' cast-offs. Theyeven knew they weren't supposed towear shoes. Strangest of all thoughwas seeing a bunch of trendy adver-tising types who had been taken ona "facility trip" by that doyen ofhip street credibility and the coun-ter-revolution, Reader's Digest.

I don't know if you noticed it onthe news pages in this magazine lastweek, but there was a story aboutILVT research into radio audiencesin London that no station was pick-ing up on. Well, a little bird tells meCapital is now talking terms withthe TV company concerned. Youdon't really need any further detailsof your London dominance doyou, Richard?

All sorts of possibilities are beingopened up by the UK government'sinsistence on auctioning the newnational franchise off to a non -popor rock station. I've got amillionaire friend who is ratherfond of Monis dancing (UK folkusing lots of bells). If he bids highenough, could he get the job?

Head of music Pool heed, "Wedon't use computers when werecompiling our programming butwe do keep a very tight hold onwhat DA are playing, unlikemany other Danish radio sta-tions. They must play five oldiesper hour and two power -picks,that is, tracks from our A list.They also need to play a fewfrom our B lest so I suppose weare reasonably strictly for-matted.

"We put together our playlistevery Thursday. When a newrecord comes in, it goes aroundwith a piece of paper inside sothe DJ can rate it. This meansevery presenter has their say butI am ultimately the one who

makes the decoion, 01 course, ithere are seven DJs saying 'it's ahit', I don't think I would ignoretheir opinions. That's demo-cracy.

"We also look at the Music &Media and Billboard charts, andwe also keep an eye on MTValthough they play too muchhip -hop for us. We don't reallyplay any rap or hip -hop butoccasionally an act like Chyp-Notic will get through.

"But Radio Viborg haschanged its approach over thelast 18 months to two years.We've moved away from the veryDanish MOR stuff that we wereoriginally established on, replaning it with oldies and people

seem to be very happy with that"We don't do our own jingles.

We buy them in from Top Formatin Holland, and we will go to Hol-land in the future, even though wehave to take Danish singers. TheDutch are very good but it's verydifficult to sing 'Viborg"

"We rely a lot on on -air com-petitions of all kinds. We have a15.000 strong listeners club. Theypay Dkr 200 [app. US$ 34.50] ayear and only members of theclub can take part in the competi-tions. These members can alsohave a say in the musing of thestation - for instance, they canvote on the board at the annualgeneral meeting.

"We never buy records. We geteverything from the record com-panies and generally they're prettygood. On the rare occasions wedon't get something we want, itusually just takes a telephone callto gel it.

In terms of syndicated shows,we take the 'Coca-Cola Euro-

ra lovlbor

chart' show and the 'AmericanTop 40' which we air on Fridaysand Sundays respectively. We haveour own top 40 album show onSaturdays and a singles show onSundays, which we base on asurvey of 35 record stores in thearea we over.

"We occasionally advertise inlocal free newspapers and wealways make sure they contain ourprogramme guides. Quite a lot ofstations are using TV advertisingbut the money we would have touse on something like that justwouldn't be worth A. We thinkwe'll sustain our position, takingthe course of action we are now.These last few months have beenincredible for radio advertising:' E

SPECIAL SUPPLEMENT

Dierks Studio - Two Decades Of SuccessCasually driving through

the Cologne suburb ofPulheim, one may not

even notice that it is thehome of one of the

world's most renownedrecording studios. In

this special supplement,Music & Media celebrates20 years of Dierks Studio.

Nestled snugly between thevillage and the country-side, Dierks Studio pre-

sents an unpretentious facade tothe outside world, reflecting itshumble beginnings and the seclu-sion it offers to some of the mostpopular musicians in the world.

Following the road out of town,the observant driver may wellnotice the large brick building tothe left - the home of DieterDierks's in-house publishingcompany, Breen Music. Thesmall cottage to the right, how-ever, would normally go unnotic-ed to all except those interested inquaint Rhineland architecture.

Early beginningsA little more than 20 years ago,this comfortable rural house wasthe site of a young man's feverishexperiments with sound. It wasthe Dierks home, in which DieterDierks's mother had a small store.In his fm time, the young Dierkswould retreat to the attic, where hegained his first experience insound recording, using the mostrudimentary equipment.

Dierks gradually expanded hisactivities to recording other musi-cians, gaining a solid reputationas an inventive engineer andproducer.

Officially launching his studioin 1970, Dierks's "grand coup"came with his involvement with

Ready to

the Scorpions. Founded in Han-over, Germany, in t971, the Scor-pions would rise to million -sellinginternational acclaim underDieter Dierks's more than compe-tent guidance and production.

Dierks, too, fared well in the in-ternational press, receiving kudosfrom such opinion -making publi-cations as Billboard and RollingStone, which pegged Dierks as"arguably the best heavy metalproducer in the world".

As success followed success,Dierks Studio also began todevelop an enviable list of clients.In the meantime, their studiobook reads like a 'Who's Who inPopular Music': Sting, EltonJohn, Prince, U2, Queen, Saga,Nazareth, Falco, Harry Belatonte,Terence Trent d'ArbN HerbertGissenemeyer, BAP, Gianna Nan-nini, the Totes Hosen, Edoardo

Bennato, Eros Ramazzotti, PhilCollins, Genesis, Rory Gallagher,Eurythmics and Steviejust to name a few.

20 years onThe very fact that Dierks Studio iscelebrating its 20th anniversaryspeaks for itself. "Normally, stu-dios do not last so lone studiomanager Harry Braun notes withpride "Them am only a few ofthem at the toe This kind of suc-cess, however, does not come fromsitting back Rod resting on yourlaurels.

"We try to be innovative in ourwork, whether with a superstar ora newcomer',' he adds. "It is notenough just to have a state-of-the-art studio. You have to have thecreative human resources and theright ambience, otherwise it won'twork"

With a 30 -person team behindhim, Braun offers clients "totalpersonal service. We do every-thing ourselves, and stand behindthe quality of our service and pro-duct. We are a residential studioand offer our clients a homey at-mosphere in our hotel andrestaurant, as well as in a separatevilla three minutes from thestudio by car"

FacilitiesPerhaps one of the most in-teresting aspects of Dierks Studiois, indeed, its restaurant. Not only

is is a relaxed meeting place formusicians, producers and techni-

also the domain of"the most famous rock grandmain the world", Dieters Dierks'smother, who at 75 years old is stillfully in charge of the catering.

"We try to beinnovative in ourwork, whether witha superstar ora newcomer."

Despite the temptations offeredby a tennis court and numerousother recreational facilities, thosewho come to Pulheim, in fact, arethere to work, and will almostalways find exactly what they needat their disposal. Offering musi-cians the use of three studios anda programming suit, Dierks pro-vides the Fmest tools.

The equipment includes a 56 -channel Wester LT 3000 (Studio 1)and a MCI PH 500 with computermixing in Studio 2. Various multi-track recorders are also available,including such analog machinesas the Otani 90 II and the Mit-subishi X -8W, the Otari EfFR-9130,

the.Sony PCM 3324, and the 3MDigital Mastering System fordigital recording. The all impor-tant monitors include ?annoyClassics, Yamaha NS -10 Ms, Ian -

desk and a 48 -track Sony 3148digital recorder. "Because of thestudio renovation, we havedelayed our 20th anniversary par-ty originally planned for this fall;'Braun admits. "But we thought itwould be mom appropriate inFebruary, when the new Studio 3will go into service'

On the roadPerhaps even more legendary than

the residential studio is the DierksMobile Studio. "Our mobile stu-dio has made us the absolute no. Iin live recording:' boasts Braun,and the release list verifies hisclaim. Those who have made useof Dierks's mobile unit includeTina Ihrner (Live 1988), the Scor-pions (Worldwide Live), PeterMalfay's Fast German tour and,most recently, the Rolling Stones.

"The Stones booked the mobilefor five months for the Urban

Jungle Tour. We recorded all for-mats, including a live LP, radiobroadcasts, a live TV film to bebroadcast by Sky, a live video anda cinema film. We are still work-ing on the mixes, and project to befinished around May of 1991:'

David Bowie recorded his con-cert in Zagreb with the Dierksmobile, and Mother's Finestrecently recorded their RCAdouble -live album with the unit.

TV broadcasters have long

recognised the quality of Dierks'smobile, The Colgone-based West-deutscher Rundfunk (WDR)employed the mobile units for thenow legendary liockpalasf andmost recently to record DaveStewart & The Spiritual Cowboysfor 'Rocklife'. ZDF has usedDierks's external services for its'Rock Pop' programme. SWF 3,on the other hand, had the mobileunit stationed at the famous RockAm Ring concerts for its radiocoverage of the annual event.

A special feather in Dierks'scap was Westwood l's commis-sion to record the Moscow PeaceFestival in the Soviet capital.

But rock & roll is not the onlygenre in which the Dierks mobileunit has earned its no. I position.Last year the unit travelled toBudapest for a special film pro-ject. "We spent two weeks inHungary)' reports Braun, "recor-ding the National Symphony Or-chestra for the soundtrack ofCosta-Gmvas film 'Music Box.From November 24 to December2 we will also be in Leningrad torecord the Leningrad Philarmoniafor a Tchaikovsky gala which willinclude performances by such ar-tists as Jesse Norman and BedePerlman for BMG Classics!'

And to help keep the futurefrom being dull, there is also a re-quest from the group Asia for themobile unit to record their concertin Moscow next year.

Video starsSince March of this year, Dierkshas also been operating its newvideo mobile unit, which is alsofully fitted for high quality soundrecording. The especially -builtDaimler Benz 1513 vehicle is

divided into video recording,video control and sound controlareas, and is accompanied by a 16ton Buessing equipment trailer.

Each of the areas is in-dependently air-conditioned. The

pact Bosch video mixer, 15 colourmonitors, and recording equip-ment for all standard formats.

According to Braun, Dierks's isEurope's only video mobile fullyequipped for high quality multi-track recording. The installedequipment includes a computer -driven MCI-JH 636 mixing deskand two AEG M 20 recorder,

Future plansUnfortunately, the Dierks team

have had to put their plans to starttheir own private radio station onice for the moment. "The currentmedia law in North Rhine-Westphalia actually hinders thedevelopment of private mdin'Braun claims testily. "We willhave to just sit back and wait until

realise that you cannot makeradio in such a situation:'

On the other hand, there is err -

Slcco

tainly enough to do to maintainand expand the reputation and ex-perience the Dierks team has wonover its first two decades. Stan-ding for the highest quality intechnology, progress and innova-tion, the name Dierks will con-tinue to spread around the world.Harry Braun, perhaps bestdescribed Dierks future with thesimple words: "We are not at alltired!' 0
