IFPI AttacksItaly's Bootleg

LoopholeITALYby Jeff Clark -Meads

The international record indus-try is challenging the basis ofItalian copyright law as it seeksto close Europe's final bootlegloophole.

Italian legislation currentlyallows domestic companies toreproduce concert recordings,and Europe's open borders meanit is easy for the resulting tapesand discs to be distributedaround the European Union.

Now international labels'organisation IFPI is asking aMilan court to re -interpret Italy'scopyright legislation to makethe practice illegal. IFPI hasasked for an injunction againstfive record companies-MGRRecords, Great Dane Records,CD Music Co., Red Line andCipo-Cipo-preventing themfrom making and distributingunlicensed recordings. Theinjunction itself is, though, sec-ondary to IFPI's desire to havethe court in Milan establish anew legal precedent.

However, one of the compa-nies involved says that it willfight the action. Owner of RedLine Siro Gallotti states, "Wedon't think we are criminals. Werespect Italian laws on the mat-ter."

Berlusconi Swipes AtRAI RestructuringITALYby Mark Dezzani

Italy's state broadcaster RAI hascome under fire from the coun-try's new right wing governmentjust a week after revealing thesecond phase of its restructuringplan intended to rationalise itsoperations and eliminate its mas-sive operating deficit.

Prime minister Silvio Berlus-coni, whose own business inter-ests include ownership of threenational TV networks, attackedthe RAI for alleged bias againsthis government. Claiming that hisopinions reflected those of themajority of Italians through pri-vately -commissioned opinionpolls, Berlusconi said, "It's a

paradox that RAI's news is con-trary to what people want. I

believe there is no other countryin the world with a democraticgovernment and a public servicebroadcasting antagonistic to it."

Media Analyse Moves TowardsLong -Awaited Biannual RatingsGERMANYby Miranda Watson

Broadcasting to an unknown quantity is death forprivate radio. That's why German broadcasters havebeen complaining for years that the annual MediaAnalyse ratings should provide a more frequent ser-vice to keep them in touch with their progress andprovide more accurate and up-to-date data for adver-tisers. Now it looks as if German radio's prayers areto be answered, with a second 'interim' MA on the

cards for the whole of Germany by the end of '95/early '96.

Until now Germany has been the only majorcountry in Europe to have to make do with annualratings. France's Mediametrie and the UK's Rajarare both conducted on a quarterly basis, for instance.

Inevitably, results are repeatedly out of date bythe time they are published. Much to the annoyanceof those trying to make and sell radio in the Germanmarket. It takes almost a year from the first wave of

Irish Competition Authority GivesU2 Fuel For Case Against PRSIRELANDby Dermott Hayes

An Irish government agency hasboosted U2's legal case againstthe Performing Rights Society(PRS) by refusing to grant theman operating licence in Ireland.

The . Irish CompetitionAuthority's decision to refuse thelicence to the PRS because theysay it is "anti -competitive" hasbeen welcomed by lawyers repre-senting U2's case against thePRS.

"We are delighted but not sur-prised with the Irish CompetitionAuthority's decision on PRSmembership rules," David Davisof London law firm Clintons toldM&M.

"It reflects some of the mainelements of our case against thePRS. We will be disclosing theCompetition Authority decisionto the courts and making refer-ence to it."

The PRS has so far declined to

comment on the content of theAuthority's decision or its ramifi-cations for the PRS and otherEuropean collection agencies.

U2 has already issued a writ inthe British courts against the PRSto recover almost £10 million inlost royalties. It also wants theright to collect its own royaltiesor to assign its own royalties fromlive performance.

U2 has claimed the PRS' insis-tence on retaining the rockgroup's live performance rightscontravenes the Treaty of Rome'scompetition laws, is an abuse oftheir dominant position and is inrestraint of trade under UK law.

The PRS has enjoined all theaffiliated European collectionagencies in the U2 writ since theissue of assigning exclusive rightsis seen as the crux of the dispute,the loss of which would havewide -reaching implications for allEuropean collection agencies.

The Competition Authority'sdecision-described as "a disas-

ter" by one member of IMRO,the PRS's Irish collection agency--has already had some impact inIreland. The Vintner's Federa-tion Of Ireland and the IrishMusic User's Council have calledthe decision a major victory intheir opposition to royalty collec-tion agencies, and IMRO hasreported opposition to theiragents in some rural areas of Ire-land.

Under Irish competition law,the Competition Authority, set upin 1991, has the right to examinethe operating rules and regula-tions of monopolies and collect-ing agencies like the PRS.

Says U2's lawyer Davis, "Thefact that the competition Authori-ty is an organisation that is recog-nised is valuable and worthputting forward in the Englishproceeding as, on the face of it, itappears to present a justificationof the complaint of U2."

EUROPE AT A GLANCESWEDEN: Women's Commercial Station Asks For State SubsidySwedish commercial radio stations which produce cultural program-ming should be able to receive state subsidies, according to Christinavan Hofsen, head of Stockholm's Radio Q.

New Swedish Privates AttractMore Than One Million ListenersSWEDENby Nicholas George

Sweden's new commercial radiostations have picked up more than14% of the listeners, according tothe first national survey, in whichthey are included.

Most successful has been EHRRadio Energy which through itsstations in Stockholm, Gothenburgand Malmo/Lund has become thenation's fourth largest radio net-work.

The big loser has been pub -caster Sveriges Radio's P3,which has dropped a third of its

audience during the same six-month period. In November lastyear 33% of Swedes listened toP3, but the independent RUABsurvey shows that by the begin-ning of May '94 this figure wasdown to 23%.

Part of this decline can be ac-counted for by the success of thecommercial stations, but it also re-flects P3's new profile which nowaims at a younger audience. Sever-al of its most popular programmessuch as the main chart show"Svensktoppen" and "Dial ASong" have moved to P4, stillSweden's most popular station,

In March 1994, weekly radiocumulative audiences rose to78.9% up from 72.3% in June1993. Mediametrie notes howev-er, that if the overall number ofinhabitants in Warsaw listening toradio was up, the average listen-ing time was down compared tothe previous wave (237 minutesdaily against 256). Private sta-tions have now overtaken publicstations in audience levels, with atotal market share of 52.1%.Radio Zet, owned by FrenchEurope 1 Communications ra-dio group, remains the leadingnational private station and thesecond station in the city, with a29.3 % cumulative audience.Public station Program Pier-

"The decline in P3 is indeedbig, but at the same time expect-ed," comments Sveriges Radioinformation chief Arvid Lager-crantz. Sveriges Radio had count-ed on losing listeners from itsyouth channel with so many of thenew commercial stations aimingexclusively at this market, he adds.

The survey also reports on thelatest trends in the country's bigcities, where the commercial sta-tions are continuing to grow. Mostsuccessful is Radio Energy, theSwedish outlet of the FrenchRadio network NRJ.

Its Stockholm station has in-creased its audience share to13.8%, while in Gothenburg it hasreplaced City 107 as the top com-mercial station with 9.2% to City107's 6.2%. In Sweden's third cityMalmo Radio Energy has morethan 10%.

These successes put the stationin fourth place nationally withRadio Rix's network of 13 localstations coming fifth, with 2.7% ofnational listenership.

Despite the impact of the com-mercial stations overall listener -ship dropped according to the sur-vey, which was carried outbetween April 25 and May 8.However, with almost 77% of thepopulation listening radio in Swe-den remains the most listened to inthe world.

Both Radio 1 and classicalchannel Radio 3 had to give upaudience in favour of Radio 2,Radio Donna and the privateswho have come close to a 11%share in Flanders.

Comments Studio Brusselhead Jan Schoukens, "StudioBrussel has kept to its rock -for-mat and I think that the more youbuild a station's profile the nar-

rower you target your audience.We must have lost some cate-gories of listeners along the wayand our research department isinvestigating the situation."Schoukens adds that the so-called"fun -nets" have gained audienceon the more serious channels andthinks that the latter have perhapsbecome to "difficult" for a broadaudience. He denies that some ofthe station's music -programmersare planning to leave the channel.

CSA Supports Ad Green Paper,Urges More Care For LocalsFRANCE6 -y -Emmanuel Legrand

Broadcasting authority CSA hasreceived a copy of what is expect-ed to be the final version of agreen paper on advertising regu-lations, to be issued in the nextweeks by the ministry of commu-nications.

In an announcement made fol-lowing its study of the paper, theCSA described the report as"globally positive," but called forsome additional guarantees toprotect local markets for localbroadcasters.

In a written commentary, theCSA said it fully endorsed the

main bulk of the text, which takesinto account the authority's phi-losophy that local advertisingshould go to local broadcasters. Itwarned, however, that the clauseallowing services broadcasting aprogramme of local interest tobecome affiliates or subscribersto a national nefwork (apart fromthe minimum three hours oflocally produced programming)could lead to the disappearance oftruly local or regional stations.

The CSA pointed out that thiswould be a way for national net-works to get into local broadcast-ing and grab local advertising.Considering the bad financial sit-uation of many local broadcast-

ers, the CSA fears that this wouldopen the door to a flood of take-overs of local stations by nationalbroadcasters.

The CSA also recommendedthat programmes acquired bylocal stations from programmebanks such as AFP Audio (newsand music), Canal A (music) orBBC Infos, be considered amongthe programmes of local interest.

The CSA's report, which car-ries no mandatory force, wasfavorably received by the min-istry of communications, whoannounced its intention to "exam-ine the technical remarks made byCSA."

Dublin Duo Scramble For ACE Gold MineIRELANDby Dermott Hayes

The single largest demographic group in theDublin market is between the age of 25 and44. They drive cars. They have jobs. Theyspend money. And that's why, according tothe programming directors of Dublin'sFM104 and Classic Hits/98 FM, they areboth running ACE stations.

With a difference, both hasten to add.The difference, of course, is what givesDublin radio listening scene its edge. Whileone station offers listeners a chance to gobeyond the stratosphere in a Russian super-sonic fighter plane, another will make you a"Mexican Millionaire" or "Stick it In andWin" with the lure of World Cup footballtickets or even dinner with the nationalsquad.

Classic Hits 98FM pioneered the ACEformat in Dublin and, while it has kept itscore audience and maintained their leadamong their target audience in Dublin,they've seen it chipped away, first by thenational pubcaster's second station, the nomi-nally EHR 2FM, but more recently and per-haps more worryingly in the long term, by itsrival Dublin commercial station, FM104.

"This station saw a gap in the marketwhen we first kicked off," says ACE 98FM'snew programming director John Taylor. "Atthe time the kids and the oldies were cateredfor and there was a gap in the middle. Weneeded a high listening base to derive an

income and the best group was aged between20 and 44. Now others have come in on theback of our success to emulate it." Taylor,the third in a line of the station's programmedirectors to hail from a long radio career"Down Under," adds, "We've all been famil-iar with the Australian/Asian style. We knowradio is a business and has to pay its way.Our format is heavily based on research andwe know and give the audience what theywant."

FM104 is the "Johnny Come Lately" toACE. The station started its days as EHRCapital Radio when commercial radio fran-chises were first opened in Dublin, but itsoon discovered its revenue limitations.

Programme director Scott Williamsexplains the succession of formats. "Between'89 and '91 Capital Radio was very heavilyEHR, playing very current, high energymusic and 52% of the under -25 market. Itgenerated a certain level of revenue but notenough. A decision was made at board levelto reposition the station." What followed wasRock 104, an all-out rock radio channelwhich proved disastrous. The move to ACEfinally proved a good one, however, and inthe past 18 months, since the emergence ofACE FM104, the station's fortunes havechanged dramatically.

Although there is a niche for an EHR sta-tion in Dublin, the reason there is not one issimply a matter of finance. Both programmedirectors point to the limitations of EHR in amarket where every commercial station is

required by law to produce 25% currentaffairs and news programming within theirschedule every day.

Williams has no doubts about the differ-ences between his station and Classic Hits98FM. "They're older targeted. FM104 isdirected at 18 to 34 year olds, 98FM targets25 to 44 years olds. There is a younger pro-gramme focus here, the presentation is moreactive and is more responsive to events. Ournews is snappier, the production values arehigher on 104 and there's more audience par-ticipation. Our jocks are encouraged to putacross 104 in their own style."

But behind Scott's bravura lies the chas-tening experiences of Capital and Rock 104.When both stations are fighting for the samemarket with the same format, he acknowl-edges, it's the differences that count.

"There is much overlap in music, so we'realways trying to reinvent within the formatby continually reviewing and revising theprogramming and the promotions".

FM104's self-imposed 20% airplay quotafor Irish music, 24 hours a day, is listed as akey difference between the two stations,according to Williams. Although musicdrives the station, three key talk shows arecentral planks in the FM104 programmingstrategy; "The Rude Awaking," the ClareMcKeown drive -time "issue -driven" chatshow and Chris Barry's late -night phone in.

Williams cites the impending launch of anational commercial station as a serious con-cern for Classic FM104. "If the station opts

for an ACE format then it will threatenadvertising revenue for both FM104 and98FM." Meanwhile, he says, it is importantfor the station "to continue supplying newmusic. I also believe that, within the format,we should not stop growing and fleshing outour programming. We want to make enter-taining radio that fits the genre and mirrorsthe lifestyles of our audience."

98FM's Taylor identifies the three mainissues facing ACE stations in Dublin. "Infirst place is financial survival-we mustcontinue to respond to our own researchresults; in second, the Irish music issue andin third, how many more stations will thismarket support in the future?"

The issue of an impending Irish musicquota has been a particularly thorny one forthe station. "We know we need to do theright thing by supporting Irish music. We'vestarted the 'Totally Irish' programme fournights a week between 23.00 and midnight.The station is in complete sympathy withgetting more Irish music on the air, but we'veresearched this and our listeners don't like it."

Taylor doesn't believe public pressurealone has prompted their change of heart onIrish music. "We also hear that the IRTCwill be expecting us to improve our quota.We have had positive feedback from ourresearch to play Irish music, but we were sur-prised how little artist loyalty there was com-pared to songs. I couldn't believe howunpopular U2 are with listeners, for exam-ple."

When Westbam's hard trance track Celebration Generation and Marusha's speed -injected hypnotiser Somewhere Over The Rainbow can be seen regularly on MTV, youcan bet dance music has made serious inroads...and, fortunately continues to do so withno end in sight.

SMOOTH, SOUL -INJECTED HOUSE NUMBERS: Last year's dance smashCaught In The Middle from Juliet Roberts is revitalised with six new remixes from thelikes of K Klass and David Morales. This Cooltempo double 12-incher is highlightedby the electrifying Klass Universal Mix and the deep and speedy Pharmacy Dub. Thefollow-up 12 -inch to Darlene Lewis' Let The Music Lift You Up (KMS) is the warm,uplifting and commendable house track Soul Fly Free. A collection of tasty remixes arehighlighted by Parks & Wilson's pumped Full Justice Remix and Mad Mike's bril-liant, soul -powered Baseroom Club Workout. Detroit producer Kevin Saundersonand Paris release seven remixes of Inner City's soulful house number Share My Life(6x6). The Mark Is Zen Mantra But Who Is Nexus 21 Mix? is charged and hypnotic,while the Graeme Park Dub leans toward a deeper underground club sound. On amore commercial tip, The Good Strawberries deliver the pop house Affro Dizzy Jack(M&G). The 7" Mix is prime commercial dance radio material, while the energy -boost-ed Olie J 12" Mix and the acid treated Professor K's Article Dub provide a fine choicefor a club dancefloor atmosphere.

EXPERIMENTAL, TRANCE, TECHNO AND OTHER MUSICAL JOURNEYS:The deep, dark and ominous sound of Hardhead's New York Express (StrictlyRhythm/ffrr) is both intimidating and seductive. The hard beat, tribal atmosphere andminimal yet powerful vocals on the B1 Mix underline the theme only the strong sur-vive in the jungle." The New York/London/Amsterdam connection is made in the AlMix which emphasises the mighty beat, accelerated tempo and accompanying hysteria. An intriguing collaboration between France's Laurent Gamier and Germany's Dr.Motte results in System 101. In Mind Sensations (Tresor) System 101 provide us withan excellent highly charged techno acid number and lyrics covering various aspects ofthe current day drug situation. Also on Tresor, Jeff Mills offers up The Extremist, avery speedy track. The B2 Mix kicks a heavier beat, while the Al Mix is the pulsator. Reports From The Vatican, a fine new acid track from Dutch act PIUS 1 is now avail-able on Looneyville/Gyrate Records. A prime trip through energy phases in the AlMix. For the more relaxed option, spin the B2 Mix.

THE ART OF COMBINING HIP HOP WITH OTHER GENRES: From Holland,T.O.C. featuring Rocca is making quite a commotion with Doo Wop Sh'Bob(Zomba), an immediately appealing crossover track combining hip hop, ragga, rapsand pop charisma. Shouts, a rhythm and a pocketful of soul. From Sweden comesTreble 'N Bass, a talented young rap act who, after a few attempts, have hit on a strongcombination of tough raps, heavy rhythms and soulful funk on Rain And Sunshine(Warner Music Sweden). The Uptempo Club Remix is highly recommended for morehi-nrg dance -oriented jocks. From the US, Tommy Boy Records' act Coolio getsinspiration from Lakeside's 1980 classic Fantastic Voyage and drops their own primefunk -junked '94 Fantastic Voyage (Radio Version and Timber Extended Radio Edit).Coolio's labelmates K7 pump their incomparable vocal power on Hi De Ho (TommyBoy/East West). Tighter than tight raps and a looser than loose jam call back to CabCalloway, while maintaining the energy and vibe of the '90s.

FULL LENGTH RELEASES WORTH THE PURCHASE: Check the outstandingartwork on all three of these recommended CDs. The Hypercycle Vegetarian Picniccompilation (Hypercycle) begins with the pure sounds of the somewhat ambient, tangi-ble trance of Cyberia's Hanggliding Over Mellow Valley, a number which is equally

appealing for Enigma fans and Deep Forest fans alike. Thevibe continues with a soulful vocal injection on SantaPrisca's From The Deep followed by many more colourfulsoundscapes. This compilation is perfect for a general chillperiod when you still want substance or a mellow tranceyhouse journey. Eye Q presents an admirable full lengthCD from Earth Nation. The tantalizing Alienated and mes-merising Revelation demonstrate a superb blend of trance,techno, house and acid elements. An open atmosphere. The

futurists from England's capital city deliver two CDs worth of aural pleasure on Life-

forms (Virgin). The Future Sound Of London go beyond perceived limits to createincomparable musicscapes where the mind flows free. At the sixth song, the title track,the beats kick in. Lifeforms evolves further on the second CD through Vertical Pig, LifeForm Ends, Omnipresence and wrapping up with Little Brother, each an experience initself.

Wholesalers Move IntoItalian House Market

4/ Mark Dezzani

Italy's thriving dance sector hasn't misseda beat when it comes to exporting itsbrand of "Happy House," earning globalrespect for musical creativity, productioninventiveness and entrepreneurial intu-ition. Specialised dance labels likeMedia, Expanded, Flying, Time, DWA,IRMA and Energy have scored interna-tional success with acts like Cappella,Paraje, Blast, Usura, Corona, Daturaand Whigfield respectively.

Yet a new breed of record company isnow vying for a slice of the market whichcan catapult a garage operation into inter-national players by keeping an ear to theground for the latest vibrations and set-ting sights high for a lucrative interna-tional licencing deal.

Milan's "Grossisti" or record whole-salers located in warehouses around theoutskirts ofthe cityhave ex-ploitedtheir closerelationshipwith spe-cialisedretail out-lets as sup -

music will remain the backbone of hisproduction. "Dance music has a goodfuture, pop dance is conquering the mar-ket. We are serious operators in thismarket, we have to be or we will besquashed by the majors."

Luigi Di Prisco of Dig It Interna-tional says he has turned a practicallyzero turnover into a L35 billion (app.US$22 million) operation in just threeyears with 60% generated by his recordcompany operations.

Working heavily with dance compila-tions including collaborations with topItalian radio network Radio Deejay tomarket its Deejay Compilation whichsold 140.000 copies last year, Di Priscosays Dig It got into dance productionproper in 1991. "We work very fast withthe right product at the right time,"adding, "The Italo-House sound is stillvery credible in Europe." Their latest

pliers to become distributors for specia-lised dance labels and producers in theirown right.

Often criticised by the major compa-nies for their activities in marketingthrough radio compilations exploitingItaly's loose copyright laws and cynicallychurning out close covers of current hitswith artist titles designed to confuse lesssuspecting record buyers (Age Of Base,for example), several are now producingrespectable original titles and making animpact on Europe's dance and pop charts.

Pippo Landro, MD of New Musicproduced and released Black Machine'sHow Gee over two years ago when itbecame an Italian club favourite with itscatchy sampled refrain of saxophonistMaceo Parker from James Brown'sSoul Power. The track went onto Euro-pean and Latin American chart successbefore entering Britain's Top 20 recentlyafter being picked up on a licence deal byPete Tong at London Records. NewMusic artist Susan De Niro has alsoenjoyed international success.

Landro dismisses criticism that thedistributor/labels are not proper producerssaying that he has never indulged in shad-ow covers and apart from dance music hislabel is also diversifying with several popprojects. On the dance front he has justestablished a specialist undergroundticked LUP (Landro Underground Pro-ductions). The first release on LUP, Illu-sion by TI.PI.CAL is a light, spacy butpacey sound with a happy hip -hoprhythm. Apart from licencing the likes ofSister Sledge and Technotronic for Italy,New Music are participating in therelaunch of '70s disco star GloriaGaynor with Black Box remixes of sev-eral of her hits. Despite diversifying intopop and country, Landro says that dance

project is the revival of another '70ssoul/disco legend Thelma Houston witha remix of her version of Dont Leave MeThis Way. Dig It will be promoting anddistributing her new album which hasbeen released by another Italian indepen-dent Fonit Cetra.

The most recent warehouse/distribu-tor to turn into dance producer is theDisco Piu company. Having been prolif-ic repackagers of back catalogue materi-al into compilation albums, Lino Denti-co, a family partner in the company lastyear, launched with a cult club hit WallaWalla Coco by Ankawa on the SoulExpression ticket. The Latin Salsa whis-tle blower with Grace Jones style vocalsmade it an instant hit in several Latinterritories.

"We have now launched the UDPlabel," says Dentico, "which is develop-ing the underground tendency. Our firstrelease Better Things by Working Hap-pily was a critical success and a clubhit." The follow-up titled Over is alreadyout and both tracks are guaranteed to getyour windscreen wiper action set to tor-rential while the downbeat mix of Overis a slowed down classy cut to winddown a frenetic all-night bash and itssoulful groove should sound great onlate night radio.

Di Prisco says that given their limitedresources compared with the majors, thewarehouse record companies are movinginto production at a slow but steadypace. "Our big advantage," he adds, "isour close relationship with the shopsthrough our distribution activities. Wesupport our product with heavy radiocampaigns and take risks. Our customersknow we will take back unsold product,which for a shop is convenient and givesthem confidence."

Station Operations Radio

Establishing An Identity For Your StationA radio station is a different thing to a listener than it

is to a broadcaster. Within the business, it is a live, eat,sleep industry with inside terminology and the perpetualsurroundings of other industry people and concerns. To

a listener, a radio station or programme is a friend, acompanion, a resource.

by Steve Warren

We often neglect to consider the lis-tener/station relationship whenconducting business. No matter

what your format is, what kind of musicyou play, what market you're in, or howmany competitors you have, the one thingthat is absolutely necessary for the success-ful business operation of a radio station isto establish an identity.

The identity needs to be a combinationof all the things a station is to its listeners,synthesised into one or two highly identifi-able elements. A station identity is the onething that when people see it, hear it, orthink of the call sign, they have essentiallya snap -shot of the station itself. Stationidentity can be obtained primarily through what is givento the listeners in terms ofprogramming.

ConsistencyThe primary tool to build

effective station identity isconsistency. Develop andutilise slogans, sayings, waysof doing things, consistentprogramming so the audienceis subjected to the stationidentity on a day -in, day -outbasis. There should be athread of familiarity and sim-ilarity throughout a radio sta-tion sound no matter whattime of day or night the lis-tener chooses to tune in.Many programming elementscan vary from hour to hour or

works is the kindthat builds fromconsistency. Theprojected image issomething thatcannot be bought,but developedand built throughcareful reinforce-

ment of ideas projected to listeners. Thiscannot occur if listener focus is brokenwith a variety of different identifying fea-tures for the station.

Separate IdentitiesOne of the biggest oversights in terms of

establishing station identity usually comesfrom companies operating more than onestation in a market, perhaps an AM andFM, each with different formats and identi-ties. There is a tendency to represent bothstations on the same corporate letterhead,business cards, etc. There is also a tendencyto promote the corporate or ownershipname rather than the radio station. In deal-ing with listeners, they really don't care whoowns a station. In most cases neither do theadvertisers. Broadcasters often assume that

the population knows that both

image ofconsistency and

confused."

day to day, but there should be somethingfamiliar, something the audience can't quiteidentify, but something that says to themthis station is different, it's unique and hasan identity all its own.

Having determined what the identitywill be on the air through slogans, phrasesor consistent terminology (in newscasts,announcer's material, jingles, promos, etc.)reinforce it' outside the station by usingthose same identifying slogans and state-ments in newspaper ads, television spots,bumper stickers or billboards.

Internally the radio station in its day-to-day function as a business also needs to beconsistent with:

business cards envelopes and letterhead sales presentation folders internal stations signs banners at public events station vehicles, all reflecting the

same visual identity.

Often stations present conflicting identi-ties because they did not feel it worth theeffort or expense to convert old identities tonew ones. The kind of station identity that

stations are co -owned but sep-arately programmed...assumenothing! Follow through with acomplete uninterrupted sepa-rate identity of each station.

Here are examples of iden-tities a station can have. Worktoward developing an identityimmediately:

1. A station can have anidentity as being the fun radiostation. Carry this fun imagethrough the music, reinforcedby the types of personalities onthe air and the nature of mate-rials they talk about. Develop afun image with clever contests,humour, or perhaps a stationmascot or image which is

humourous. Have featurematerial or special program-

ming that indicates a station that likes tohave fun. Contests should be fun and takenlightly, requiring less effort to win but moreentertaining in their operation. This is a ter-rific identity against a very structured, con-servative competitor.

2. A station can develop a news andinformation identity. Provide an excellentnews and information product, but constant-ly remind the audience during other pro-gramming that they are only moments awayfrom one of the basic information elements(news, traffic, weather, etc.). Don't forgetweekends, overnights and late eveningswhen there is limited access to many of theinformation elements. Talk about them.Promote their presence on the station. Withany station identity, talk about it even whennot doing it. With a music identity, talkabout the music when not playing it. With anews, traffic, information image, reinforcethat image between songs.

3. A contest image can easily reinforcedwith newspaper ads, currency signs or listsof prizes. Talk about a contest even whennot running one. Have contests plannedwell ahead of time and promote to the nextscheduled contest.

4. A public service identity takes on a

general approach because it is hard to betoo specific when serving the entire popula-tion of the market. Therefore, give as manyspecific examples of what public serviceactivities the station is participating in at thetime. Reinforce this verbally on the air andin outside media. For example, if the stationhelps with a charity telethon, do the actualwork, promote it on the air, then tell theaudience after the fact about the results. Ifthe station works on a particular fund raiserfor some sort of other event, similarly, par-ticipate in the event, promote the participa-tion after the event and brag about it. Also,if seeking a public service, public affairsimage, project the stationahead two or three weeks or amonth ahead of events forfuture participation. It is alsovery important that a stationcontinues to remind the pub-lic service agencies them-selves, as well as governmentleaders, and persons withsimilar civic responsibility ofstation participation so theycan help generate word ofmouth recognition of the sta-tion's public service identity.

5. In a few cases, somestations have managed tomake a good business effort out of a some-what negative identity. This mostly has todo with music programming that runs con-trary to popular taste. Several major Ameri-can stations make good money sellingadvertising while at the same time are a bla-tantly obtrusive radio station through theiradvertising techniques, play distastefulmusic and have announc-ers using offensive materi-

professionals, they utilise systems fromword association to making absurd connec-tions between the thing to be rememberedand some other visual imagery. Establish-ing an identify for a radio station is no dif-ferent. If the identity is different enough, ifit is not to be confused with any other typeof identify for any other type of business orcertainly for any other station in town, theaudience will remember it because of theunique identity.

In establishing identity of a radio sta-tion, stick with it for a while. Don't changea station's identity too frequently. Goodstrong identity imagery is difficult to build.

It is even more difficult tochange. Many radio stations

"A station identity around the world are still iden-

is the one thing tified by slogans and imagerythat they projected to their lis-

that when peoplesee it, hear it, orthink of the callsign, they have

essentially asnap -shot of thestation itself."

al. But, it sells, and in abusiness sense, it works.

There are other identi-ties so look around anymarket at the list of com-petitors. Start a list onpaper to determine whatthe identity is of eachcompeting radio station.

If you cannot identifyor come up with a short,precise identity of eachstation in the market, thenconsider those stations asvulnerable. Stations withno identity are subject tothe worst type of vulnera-bility. Those are the sta-tions the listener will failto remember. Those arestations listeners forget easily, stations thathave not conveyed an image of consistencyand have left the listener confused.

Be DifferentBy establishing a firm, positive identity

for the radio station, it can win. In memorytraining courses offered by memory training

teners 10 or 20 years ago.Don't be the radio station that"used to be" something else.

Chances are, if listenershaven't tried a station or pro-gramme lately, they still thinkit's doing the same things it didthe last time they listened,which might have been 20years ago. When establishingstation identity make a pro-

found statement in the market. It's anexcellent time to go out and test the effec-tiveness of station marketing techniques bymeans of street research or focus groups oflisteners to see if the intended message ispenetrating the audience at large.

One final note on station imagery andidentity. Many radio station audience sur-

vey companies rely uponthe listeners memory in

Make the proper

statement in identifying ourselves. As com-petitive broadcasters, our goal is to makesure it is our call letters that come to mindrather than our competitors. Develop thestation identity, sell it, stick with it, anddon't promise anything to an audience thatcan't be delivered on or off the air.

SONET ***************************************************************Artist: 22-Pistepirkko

Current Album: To be released autumn 1994

According to Sonet Finland promotion manager Aku Volta, one of Finnish music's greatest attractions is

also its biggest drawback. "It's a rich and subtle language," says Valta, "the best lyrics can be read without

music, like poetry, and there's a very strong market for it. Like everywhere, new acts concentrate on the

local market to get an initial success story. And the best chance of doing that here is singing in Finnish. It's

a Catch -22 situation if you want to go international."

22-Pistepirrko is a long-term project for Sonet and has had time to make the transition. The band released

two, quietly minimalistic albums in Finnish before evolving an acoustic indie rock sound and

changing their language. Birdy, a single from the band's last album Big Lupu went

111/4

Top 5 in Finland and received good airplay in the rest of Europe, particularly

IANFrance where they hove developed a loyal following. Big Lupu is still

selling, but efforts are now gearing towards the upcoming LP.

"We're going to market at the roots," says Volta, "with constant

touring and lots of local press and radio." Although Valta

believes 22-Pistepirrko is a band that gains most of their

fans on stage, he credits the diversity and support of

radio as also contributing to the act's success.

EMI FINLAND ***********************

Artist: NelId Ruusua

Current Single: Meistb Jokainen (June 6)

Current Album: Pop-Uskonto (October 1993)

Nelja Ruusua have been recording in their present formation

since 1987. Early, intensive touring created a loyal fan base and established

them as one of Finland's leading live acts. The group broke through defini-

tively with their fourth album, Hyviiii Yoto Bangkok. The follow-up album

Halm expanded upon the success with the single Juppihippipunkkari topping

radio, dance and sales charts. Halm eventually went platinum, selling some

50.000 units.

Pop-Uskonto ("Pop Religion") entered the national album chart at number 1 and

spent four weeks there. It has already spawned three Top 10 hit singles and has

current sales of 45.000. Trend -setting rock magazines Soundi and Rumba both voted Nelin Ruusua as Fin-

land's best band in 1993. Plans for the near future include a major tour through Finland in July, and the

release of a compilation containing remixes of their greatest hits.

Although EMI promotion manager Katri Hiimiildinen believes Neljii Ruusua to have the most interna-

tional potential of their current acts, she acknowledges the unlikelihood of European breakthrough while

they continue to sing in Finnish. "IV s an impossible language for outsiders," she admits.

POKO RECORDS PY/GAGA GOODIES ******************************************

Artist: Hybrid Children

Current Single: tba

Current Album: Honeymoon In Babylon (23 May)

Gaga Goodies' Miettinen ("just Miettinen, no one even knows my first name!") is one of the few label

executives who dismisses the language as a barrier to Finnish breakthrough. His reasoning is that local tal-

ent is just too good. "By good I mean really original. The best Finnish bands don't sound trendy. It is

always difficult to break acts that can't be compared to anyone else."

The advent of the Seattle scene, however, has fostered international appreciation of a sound that Finland

produces to perfection, says Miettinen. "It's much easier now to break the loud, punk, rock 'n' roll sound.

Call it the 'Post -Nirvana' period." It's a wave he's convinced Hybrid Children can ride. "They're one of fewbands in Finland I can imagine playing any stage anywhere. They're bigger than life-they really fill upthe stage."

The first three singles from the act's debut album Bleed Baby Bleed all topped the indie charts, pushing

the album to the number 13 spot nationally. Honeymoon In Babylon was at number 31 and climbing in its

first week of release, guaranteeing the act rotation in the weekly Top 40 video countdown. Consequently,

efforts are being focused on completion of the clips From Babylon With Love and God In The City which

will be directed by Ben Unwin (of Guns N'Roses, U2, Nick Cave -fame). This, and an imminent tour

of Germany including an appearance at PopKomm, has pushed plans for single releases to the back

burner. Miettinen is confident of summer releases of the album in Sweden and Japan, and will be looking

for additional licensing deals at NMS and PopKomm.

MEGAMENIA MUSIC/JOHANNA KUSTANNUS OY ***********************************

Artist: Leningrad Cowboys & The Alexandrov Red Army EnsembleCurrent Single: tbc

Current Album: Happy Together (release date June 1994)

Megamania's international hopes are pinned on an act proudly defined as 'The World's Worst Rock & Roll

Band." The Leningrad Cowboys, a 10 -man showband, parody the Soviet system, the English language and

cliches of rock stardom.

The act's bizarre performances (resulting in sell-outs on Scandinavia, Central Europe and US tours) have

not been limited to the stage. The film "Leningrad Cowboys Go America," about the misadventures of a

Siberian rock band, was released in 24 countries and has become a cult classic. Their upcoming album is a

result of their most ambitious show to date-a joint concert with the 160 -strong Alexandrov Red

Army Chorus & Dance Ensemble.

The concert resulted in the "Marketing Act Of The Year" award from the Finnish Marketing Federation

and a live double -album Total Balalaika Show which sold some 35.000 units. 'That is very unusual," claims

Megamania promotion representative Anne Koskinen. "It's very hard to sell live albums here, particu-

larly in English." Happy Together, a studio version of the cross-cultural collaboration, will be released in

O

Europe and Japan to coincide with Japanese and German tours, including a repeat of The Helsinki perfor-

mance in Berlin's Marx-Engels-Platz on June 18. Singles from the studio album are being specially pro-

duced for Nokia, the mobile -phone company sponsoring the Berlin concert, and the Cowboys will be fea-

tured in a Japanese commercial for Canchu-Hy soft drink.

WARNER music FINLAND **************************************************

Artist: Taikapeili

Current Single: Seuraa Johtaja

Current Album: Suuri Salaisuus (May 1994)

MUSIC & MEDIA PRESENTS ITS FIRST OF A FOUR-PART SPECIAL ON THE SCANDINAVIAN MUSIC

SCENE. LOOK FOR NORWAY, SWEDEN AND DENMARK IN UPCOMING MUSIC & MEDIA ISSUES.

For many, Finland is a country on the geographical and musical periphery

of the international scene-a slow starter as far as bringing localproduct to the rest of the world with, as one local executive put it, "a

10 -year gap between us and Sweden." Much of this has to do with the

inclination of the most popular acts to sing in Finnish, but change is in the

air, coupled-albeit belatedly-with an explosion of local dance talent.

"When I first heard the demos I was confident that this would be successful," says Warner marketing

manager Ari Laken*. "It's one of the first Finnish acts to come with the European pop/dance sound."

Taikapeili's debut single Jos Sulla On Toinen spent four weeks at number 1 on the singles chart and

topped airplay and dance charts as well. Lohenoja cites radio's increasing enthusiasm for dance as a major

contributing factor to their success. "Radio gave them great support across the board, locally and national-

ly. You're going to be hearing more about dance in Finland in the future."

Suuri Salaisuus, which entered the national LP chart at number 4, looks set to be more than a one -hit won-

der. The follow-up single Seuraa Johtajaa is currently at number 7 and climbing as Warner continues to

groom the new act. 'They've had a great start on radio and in the clubs, but they haven't done any live

shows yet," says Lohenoja. 'They need more experience performing before we can even think about for-

..eign markets."

Although Lohenoja is convinced of the quality of Finnish music, he doesn't want to make predictions about

imminent international success. "I don't think there's anybody here at the moment that has a very high

potential for international breakthrough. Even the ones who sing in English have a style that is totally dif-

ferent from what's popular elsewhere."

SONY ****************************************************************Artist: Miisa

Current Single: All Or Nothing At (mid -June)

Current Album: Attitude (release date August 1994)

Sony is letting no grass grow under Miisa. Her first two singles Set Me Free and Hold On went top 10 and

the label is working on international deals for her debut album two months before its release.

Marketing manager Hans Rautio attributes her success to the recent shift in the music scene due to

changes in the attitude of media and in popular taste. Rock had an appealing tradition of street credibility

and non-commercialsm, he says. Finnish acts like Hanoi Rocks and Smack may never have enjoyed

massive sales, but had great artistic influence on acts like Alice In Chains and Pearl Jam. The media

liked that. "MTV started the change," says Rauito, ''and radio carried it further. There's a whole new gen-

eration of media more appreciative of it."

Despite the sudden emergence of dance in the local scene, Rauito doesn't anticipate a major decline of the

traditional pop/rock sung in Finnish. "It will always be there," he says firmly, "it's the backbone of the

industry. The market for local product has been between 45-50% for some 30 years now. That won't

change quickly."

BMG FINLAND *********************************************************

Artist: Dance Nation

Current Single: True Conviction (February 1994)

Current Album: Dawn (released April 1994)

Technopop act Dance Nation is the first signing of BMG Finland's A&R department which opened last year.

Their first single Let the Rhythm Entrance was released after a promo EP, and went to number 3 in the

Finnish charts. The current single True Conviction hit Top 20 which is quite an accomplishment, says A&R

manager Asko Kallone, seeing they produ(e everything themselves.

'The act is more than just the performers," says Kallone. "Dance Nation is seven -eight people in total

including video and graphic guys. Between them they compose, engineer, mix, produce, package, every-

thing. It's a whole organisation and it's these teenagers doing it out of a bedroom-it's amazing."

Kallone admits that BMG had also not expected their first developing act to come with such finished mate-

rial as early as they did, and sees his biggest challenge as getting the group's creative talents and the

record company in synch. "You need a smooth -running machine to foster success stories, and while they're

perfectionists they're not totally professional-yet."

In the meantime, a third single, Freed is planned for July, and the belated video will be serviced to MTV.

Should a buzz result BMG may release Dawn elsewhere.

LOUISE HOFFSTENHit Me With Your Lovething - Rival R/D/EHRPRODUCER: Leif Larson

The Swedish rocker combines the old andnew meaning of the loaded term "R&B."The harmonica is very bluesy, while therhythm is unmistakably dance. What willthe purists say?

SCARLETI Really Like The Idea - WEA EHR/ACE

PRODUCER: Paxman/MuggletonA girl trio outside of the dance field, that'sin itself a reason to listen to them. Pop withcrystal clear acoustic guitars and fine har-mony vocals is on the menu. We really likethe idea.

JIMMIE VAUGHANBoom-Bapa-Boom - Epic R/A/EHRPRODUCER: Nile RodgersR&B "tuff enuff' for biker clubs, andequally acceptable for EHR, why is it sorare? Well, it takes good taste, sincere lazi-ness-never a note too many-naturalswing and melody!

WET WET WETLove Is All Around - Precious ACE/EHR

PRODUCER: Wet Wet Wet/Graeme DuffinCovered for the "Four Weddings And AFuneral" film, this sugary ballad is aTroggs original from 1967. Let's see ifMarti Pellow can shake his hips like RegPresley!

ALBUMS

TONI CHILDSThe Woman's Boat - Geffen A/ACE/EHRPRODUCER: David Bottrill/Toni ChildsOn her Geffen label debut, Childs presentsa highly feminine song cycle. Womb is asong written from the baby-in-utero per-spective. Then it is born on Welcome ToThis World and Toni tells the newbornabout the cruelty of it. On Wild Bride sheasks why the inner wildness of a woman ishidden under a Barbie doll image. Partlyrecorded in Peter Gabriel's Realworldstudio's, the tone of it is pop with a worldmusic edge to it. This is feminism of thesolemn, serious school.

JUNKHOUSEShays - Epic R/APRODUCER: Malcolm BumCanada is under a voodoo spell.Apparently the Tragically Hip has set thestandard of what rock sounds like in thatcountry for the '90s. Junkhouse also pumpswater out of the Mississippi swamplandsinto its music. Voodoo is mixed with mod-em day teen angst. The concept of tensionis the same (Out Of My Head and PrayingFor The Rain) but the aftermath is dis-parate. Hypnotising repetitive patterns,deep dark vocals and spellbound percus-sion, as most manifest on Jesus Sings TheBlues and Gimme The Love, strengthen thatunique atmosphere of doom.

K-KLASSUniversal - Deconstruction D/EHR

PRODUCER: K -Klass

Dance is universal, K -Klass is of A -Class,but Rhythm Is A Mystery to them. Can youbelieve it? With this debut CD plus limitededition bonus CD full of mixes the "prob-lem" of people dancing to the beat won't besolved. Off all, ambient housers are bestcatered for. They can move their bodies to1,2,3 with an air raid siren not unlike thesound of the dolphin as pictured on thesleeve. The current pop dance single WhatYou're Missing is here included in an inac-cessible mix. Edited La Cassa with JohnnyMarr's guitar could be a summer ace.

REBA MCENTIRERead My Mind - MCA C/ACE/EHRPRODUCER: Tony Brown/Reba McEntireBelonging to that elite group known popu-larly by an affectionate abbreviation, Rebalooks further than the ranch's grounds. Notonly the numerous ballads will easily slipthrough the less threatening barbed wiresbetween hardcore country and middle ofthe road music. I Won't Stand In Line-fea-turing Vince Gill on backing vocals-andthe gospel -framed single Why Heaven't 1

Heard From You are happy-go-lucky rock-ers destined for the Al button on manyjukeboxes. Most special is album openerEverything That You Want, bringing backthat sense of melody and suspenseful guitarpicking Mark Knopfler has forgotten aboutsince Making Movies.

PAOLO MENDONCADifferent Phases - Polar R/A/EHRPRODUCER: Mic Michaeli/Paolo MendoncaFunk rock has different faces, which are allfamiliar to Mendonca. On Chocolate Chip& Chicken Bone he opens in a '70s funk

style of Wild Cherry to further treat it withthe metal respect of Living Colour. Sincewe last heard from him some three yearsago, he has souped up his sound consider-ably. The retro Kravitz -type of thing he hassurely left behind by now. The album is co -engineered by Ronny Lathi, the manbehind Skintrade's wall of sound, whichshould explain this hard line. It's allsummed up by the title The Powerhungry.

STONE TEMPLE PILOTS

Purple - Atlantic A/R/MPRODUCER: Brendan O'BrienSince the kamikazes recorded their 1992smash debut album Core with Mr. O'Brienat the helm, the former engineer hasbecome Seattle's star producer. His Midastouch brought all of his clients number oneentries in the US. It's a full circle now, yetour expectations were not overly high fortheir second album. Despite commercialsuccess, most of their competitors wereshown to suffer from writer's block afteronly one album. And let's face it, at theirfirst European tour in May last year theyonly played 45 -minute sets, simply becausethey didn't have enough material. It's sur-prising to hear that Weiland and co. havemanaged to write "12 Gracious Melodies"as he croons on the hidden 12th track. Gofor Unglued with that powerful riff!

THE TEA PARTYSplendor Solis - Eternal/EMI R/APRODUCER: Jeff MartinThe band's name evokes images of a hightea on the English country side. Forget it,this is more the alternative programmers'cup of tea. Not only by its trio line-up, butalso stylistically this Canadian band is remi-niscent of '60s rock icon Cream, which hasreunited for two third under the name ofBBM. They are equally careful with thelegacy of Mountain, a quality they sharewith the Masters Of Reality. In the pastsuch albums were listened to in one go.Impatient grungers should pick out SaveMe.

THE WAILERS BANDJah Message - Red Arrow/SPV W/A/EHRPRODUCER: Junior Murvin/Aston BarrettIf you want to write the reggae dictionary,then check out the track listing. The keywords "rasta, love, jah, Zion, MarcusGarvey" are all present in the song titles.The Wailers still make music in the samegreen, yellow and red colours. So don't tryto look for new developments, this is sim-ply a nicely entertaining album with a greatsummertime factor (Where Is Love andRasta). Timeless music to sing along withand tap your feet to.

EMI UK Has Got Traditional Hard Rock Under Its SkinUNITED KINGDOMby Jeff Clark -Meads

There is something refreshingly old-fash-ioned about EMI UK's newest rock band,Skin. In an age of grunge, thrash andgarage, Skin are that simple commodity: ano-nonsense rock band. This month, EMIis beginning to build the interna-tional platform for their success onthe foundations of the band's sig-nificant impact in their native UK.

Skin's eponymous debut albumis being released across the conti-nent at varying times during June,but the first single from it, LookBut Don't Touch has alreadyreceived attention from radio inItaly, Spain and Germany. Thealbum has been out in the UK sinceMay 3, and Skin reached the pinna-cle of their short career so far whenthey appeared at Europe's premierrock festival, the Monsters OfRock at Castle Donington in theUK, last week.

Competition for slots atDonington is intense, even with theintroduction of two stages thisyear, so how did Skin manage to secureone of those coveted positions? CarolBaxter, senior product manager at EMIUK's international department, says it wason the strength of being "a straight -down -the -line rock band".

She adds, "There's Soundgarden, PearlJam and Nirvana out there, but apart fromThunder there isn't really a straightfor-

ward rock band. We think that's a gap inthe market and it's one we're aiming to fill.A lot of people love straightforward rockmusic but there isn't a lot of it about."

Baxter says, "With a brand new band,things always take time to happen interna-tionally. Our strategy so far has been tobring people here to live shows and play-

backs of the album and to keep them awareof the UK success. Some of the press cov-erage we have had here has been fantastic."

Three singles from the album have beenreleased in the UK-Look But Don'tTouch, House Of Love and Money-withMoney entering the UK chart at number 18.However, as a rock band the backbone ofSkin's appeal is lice band's live perfor-

mance. EMI was, then, eager to get Skin onstage in front of a paying audience as soonand as often as possible. That meant goingout as support act to (ex-)Polydor bandLittle Angels in the UK between Octoberand December.

The tour was also the starting point foranother important plank of the marketing

strategy-Skin's fan database. Such wasthe band's live appeal that by the time LookBut Don't Touch was released, the listingcontained 2.500 names. The fans were keptinformed of future releases and upcominglive dates, which ensured a growing pullingpower by the time Skin went out for theirfirst tour in their own right in February.

A matter of weeks later, the band then

toured for the third time in six months totie in with the release of Money. Furtherdates are now scheduled in July when thefourth single, Tower Of Strength, isreleased in conjunction with tracks record-ed live at Donington.

The impact Skin made in the UK hasbeen assisted by two further marketing

ploys: the fact that the album wassold to stores at a reduced price toallow dealers to retail it at the psy-chologically -significant price ofUK£9.99, and the support of thatstrategy with TV advertising on thelate -night rock show "NoisyMothers."

A tour outside the UK is nowunder discussion, although the bandhave already been to Germany andFrance doing press interviews andpromotion work. Though overseasconcerts will probably not happenin the autumn, EMI is eager forpeople to be aware of what is instore. Says Baxter, "They are justfantastic on stage with a great -look-ing lead singer [NevilleMacDonald]."

It also helps that Skin play agrittily -melodic, uncluttered rock with nounnecessary frills and a solid underpinningfrom ex -Jagged Edge guitarist MykeGray. Indeed, Gray is the main writingforce behind Skin and it is the strength ofhis guitar -based melodies that is the meatof the band's attack. MacDonald's vocalsfrom the old school of rock rounds out thesound.

Eurovision Interval Song "Riverdance" Beats The WinnersIRELANDby Dermot!. Hayes

It has been said that lightning rarely strikestwice in one spot. Tell that to the last threewinners of the Eurovision song contest.Better still tell that to Bill Whelan, thecomposer of Riverdance, the extraordinarypiece of music composed especially for theinterval spot between performance and vot-ing at the recent Eurovision in Dublin.

Riverdance was composed as a piece ofperformance music and presented with ahaunting introduction by Anuna, an Irishtraditional choral group and a troupe of tra-ditional dancers. So overwhelming hasbeen the response to the Riverdance perfor-mance in Ireland, it knocked Rock N' RollKids-the Eurovision winning song-fromthe top spot in the Irish chart after just oneweek and has stayed on its lofty perch forfive weeks now.

And it's not the first time this has hap-pened to a performance by an interval actfor Eurovision. Hothouse Flowers firstburst onto the international scene back in1988 when a special EC sponsored videoof the young Irish rock group performingtheir first major hit Don't Go was broadcastduring the Eurovision broadcast of thatyear from Dublin.

Now a video of the EurovisionRiverdance performance has been released

and a single of the performance has beenrush released in Britain with independentlabel Total Records to capitalise on theEurovision performance. And already therecord has received a major boost with acover story "tip for the top" in JonathanKing's hugely influential UK radio indus-try tipsheet.

"We believe once it reaches a certainlevel it will explode," says MotherRecords' general manager in Ireland DavePennefather, "it's not an established artist.In fact, there is no artist as such so it's apeculiar one from that point of view; therecord must speak for itself."

To that end speed of release was essen-tial, explains Pennefather, which is why thePolyGram-affiliated Mother Records wentwith independent label Total Records in theUK. "There was a quick turnaround. Wehad it out three weeks after Eurovision,"Pennefather says.

The experience in Ireland also prompt-ed the Irish record company to follow the"indie" route in the UK. ExplainsPennefather, "We were caught by surprisefrom a stock point of view in Ireland. Thesingle has sold almost 40.000 copiesalready in Ireland alone, where a numberone single can be reasonably expected tosell in the region of 5.000."

The visual impact of the Eurovisionperformance has had much to do with the

single's success. The tune was first com-missioned from composer Bill Whelan byEurovision programme director MoyaDoherty. His brief was to compose a workdesigned around New York -based chore-ographer and former world champion Irishset dancer, Michael Flatley and JaneButler.

Ironically, Whelan found it extremelydifficult to find a record company willingto finance the recording. "Early on I sawits potential as a single and I made a num-ber of approaches, but not one of therecord companies would bite," saysWhelan. In the end he did get finance butfrom a most unusual source. "It was spon-sored by Church & General [an insurancecompany] which did it purely as a publicrelations and promotions exercise."

Now there are plans for an album.Dancers Flatley and Butler have beeninvited back to record a video specificallyfor the piece. Mother Records' Pennefathersays the record company is now looking toEurope and plan to release the singlethrough the PolyGram network on theEuropean mainland.

Breakin' & EnteringAs anticipated last week, 2 Unlimitedoccupy the top slot of the Hot 100with The Real Thing. It marks theduo's third number I, following NoLimit and Tribal Dance (both from'93) and their 10th European hit singleto date.

It's also the second time this yearfor a mainland European act (anddance duo) to claim the throne, fol-lowing Italian Cappella with MoveOn Baby that went to number 1 in theweek of March 26.

Has anybody noticed that a lot ofthe dance hits from mainland Europeare using similar production formu-las? (To say it mildly). The produc-tions of Cappella, 2 Unlimited, Maxx,Corona, Magic Affair, Culture Beatand many, many more, are all basedon thumping house beats with the rapdelivered by the male vocalist and thechorus by the female.

Nevertheless, it's is a good weekfor Continental European -produceddance music. with no less than 26entries currently in the Hot 100. Apartfrom the above mentioned, thisincludes Reel 2 Real, Prince Ital Joe,Lucilectric, Dr. Alban, Ace Of Base,Doop and Haddaway, no mean feat.

Especially the success of Maxx isstriking with two singles just outsidethe top 10, Get -A -Way (after 24weeks, still charted in the UK, France,Ireland and Denmark) and No More (ICan't Stand It) that's charting in ninemarkets and holding a top 10 positionin Belgium and the four Scandinavianterritories.

The Sales Breaker award-thesingle registering the biggest increasein chart points-goes to UK dance actThe Prodigy whose seventhEurochart entry, No Good (Start TheDance) jumps from number 28 to 14this week due to new positions inFinland, Switzerland and Sweden and

EUROCHARTtop 10's in the UK and Ireland.

The group-signed to UK indieXL Recordings-debuted in '91 withCharly which peaked at number 11.Other entries for the act include (inorder of Eurochart peak position),Everybody In The Place (number 10),One Love (24), Out Of Space (33),Fire/Jericho (38) and Wind It Up(42).

More European dance success isbooked in the Top 100 with Germanduo Magic Affair's Omen - The StoryContinues, a recent CD insert in thismagazine as part of M&M's "SummerTrack Attack" box. The album makesa significant jump from number 45 to17, thanks to positions in sixEuropean markets, of which the homemarket Germany (number 8),Switzerland (7) and Sweden (18) arethe most significant. Meanwhile,Electrola reports that the Omen IIIsingle (still at number 27 in the Hot100), has already sold more than halfa million copies across Europe.

Is the Symbol's The BeautifulExperience an album or a single? Inmost territories, the title is regarded asa longplayer and hence it appears inthis week's Top 100 (at number 26,down from 10, due to sliding posi-tions in the UK and Denmark).

In Austria and Ireland, however,the disc's playing time (and the factthat it only contains one song in vari-ous remakes) qualifies it as an EP,and The Beautiful Experience, there-fore, appears in the national singlescharts.

Currently, the combined chartpoints achieved through the positionsin Austria and Ireland (number 19 and17, respectively) are not high enoughfor the product to end up higher in theTop 100, were those points added toits current chart status.

hat's how GuidoDepraetere,production/programmingpresident summarises thefirst five years of Flemishcommercial TV stationVTM, when, on October27, 1987, the VlaamseTelevisie Maatschappij was

given the green light by the Flemish government.Founded by nine Flemish newspaper and

magazine publishers-together representingsome 85% of the Flemish printed media-thecommercial broadcaster was given an 18 -yearlicence and monopoly on TV advertising andsponsorship in Flanders in turn for the launch of afull-scale TV station with an eye for domesticmusic and audiovisual productions. And mostrecord companies will agree that the station haskept these promises, as the station can be con-sidered one of the greatest media supporters ofnational music.

The station was officially launched on Febru-ary 2, 1989, and has since becomethe number one Flemish TV stationwith a market share climbing from31.4% in the first year up to a solid43.2% in 1993 while advertisers werepromised an initial target of 20% of themarket.

Before February 1989, publicbroadcaster BRTN had a monopolyon the market and an undeniableinflux of Dutch TV channels; the arrivalof VTM forced the industry to startworking with data like audience sur-veys and market shares. Today 17 ofthe top 20 TV programmes on the Bel-gian market are dominated by VTM.And although the figures speak for themselves,Depraetere, however, doesn't think of this chartas a relevant barometer.

"The only thing we work with is market share,"he says. "A programming chart doesn't reflect thebehaviour of the universe; we like to know howbig the market is and what share we have there.Evaluation is effected on a day-to-day basisallowing us to steer our programmes along theway. The station is very flexible in its program-ming bearing in mind the audience's habits."

That Personal TouchBoth Depraetere and the production/program-ming VP Mike Verdrengh worked with the Flem-ish state broadcaster long before launching VTMand learned the ropes of the trade.

Guido Depraetere

VTM 5 YEARS:

A Voice For The Flemish"If I had known beforehand what to expect, I would

never have started VTM. We knew there was a mountainto conquer, but what we didn't foresee was another 20

mountains behind...""A very typical example is how to treat your

guests," says Depraetere. "Government institu-tions in a monopoly situation don't tend to accom-modate visitors in a friendly way, yet the firstthing we did with VTM was to create a relaxedatmosphere for both audiences and guests. Thiswas a professional 'must' for me because Istrongly believe it all helps in making good pro-grammes. Let's face it, a TV studio is like a snakepit and if your guest is nervous the programmesuffers."

Another important element in VTM's pro-gramme structure is the station's news broad-casts. The commercial station has witnessed asteady growth in both quality and quantity of itsnews programmes and magazines andDepraetere is convinced that news is one of thekey elements in the success of a TV station.

"Three years ago we launched our SNG pro-ject [Satellite News Gathering] and investedheavily in technology. Today, VTM has a full-timetransponder on satellite and four SNG trucks plusa ground station operational. As a direct result of

our high-tech efforts we were invitedto join an international consortium asfounding member, together with majorinternational players like CBS [US],BSB [UK] and TBS [Japan]. This col-laboration results in an interchange ofnews and footage allowing us to keepahead of our competitors and boost-ing the quality of our news pro-grammes. We are not tied up in theEBU [European Broadcasters Union]."

Going FlemishThe safeguarding of the Flemish cul-tural identity is yet another key princi-

ple behind VTM: the Flemish decreeregulating television stipulated a minimum of20% in locally produced programmes. From dayone the station had about 30% Flemish pro-grammes; today the share has climbed to around55%.

VTM has caused a tremendous growth in theFlemish audiovisual production market, withnumerous new studios and production facilitiesopening their doors with a positive future ahead.

Depraetere thinks the current share is as highas one possibly can get as production costs arehigh compared to programmes bought abroad."Flemish productions eat 90% of our budgetalthough it fills just over the half of the program-ming time." The fact that the evolution today istowards more "live and direct" programmes urgesVTM to produce more in-house, cutting in cost

and allowing more flexibility, but the bulk of Flem-ish fiction, music shows, games and talk shows isstill produced in various studios in Flanders.

Says Depraetere, "We must keep the budgetunder control as the advertising market is notgrowing continuously. Although 35% of it isdirected towards TV, elements like the BRTNsponsorship on TV [contravening the initial VTMmonopoly] and advertising on the upcomingregional TV stations are eating away consider-able shares." He adds that strictly seen VTM isalso a regional station-an operation which mustbe guided along strict financial lines in order tosurvive.

Competing Factors?Two years ago, the Dutch -based RTL4announced plans to start a Flemish programme.Since then, Dutch multi -media group and RTL4shareholder VNU recently took a 44% stake inVTM, and those projects were put aside. Yetrumours about CLT's plans to launch a Flemishcommercial station broadcasting from Luxem-bourg and the fact that US -based ABC was plan-ning to invade Flanders via Swedish operationE.B.S. urged VTM to consider the launch of asecond channel alongside the original one. "Wecan either sit and wait for the EC's decision toopen the frontiers to all broadcasters and let for-eign stations eat away all advertising or occupythe market ourselves with sharp prices making itdifficult for outsiders to step in," says Depraetere.He hopes that the Flemish Government will keepto the promise of the 18 -year advertisingmonopoly given to the station.

VTM has also applied for a radio station,broadcasting on the Flemish region, but the Gov -

VTM'S MUSIC PROGRAMMING:

Responsible For Changing An Entire IndustryBefore the launch of VTM in 1989, the Belgian record industry concentrated mainly on

English -language productions, with bands such as Vaya Con Dios, Soulsister, Front 242 andthe new beat generation (Confetti's) followed by the worldwide success of Technotronic.

Who would have thought that one new TV station could bring about the domination ofFlemish -language product in the Belgian charts?

hereas surrounding mar-kets were facing thedecline of the vinyl singlein 1988-1990, Belgium wit-nessed a substantialgrowth in single sales. Itgoes without saying thatVTM's impact on thedomestic market effected

the buying habits of the Flemish audience, as36% of all units sold in 1990 were vinyl singles.

Small independent production companieswere close behind the rapidly evolving recordmarket here and started signing local talent atthe speed of light. They were soon followed bymajors BMG, Sony and EMI, resulting in toppositions for Belgian signings in IFPI's interna-tional year-end charts in the beginning of the'90s.

Despite the fact that southern Belgium soonstarted to follow VTM's example with its localtalent show, RTL-TVi's "10 Qu'On Aime" (basedon VTM's "10 Om Te Zien"), the growth ofdomestic talent has never been as spectacularas in Flanders, which makes market figureseven more remarkable as they relate mostlyto efforts in the north of the country.

Multiple PlussesAccording to IFPI Belgium president andPolyGram MD Bert Cloeckaert, the impactof VTM's music programming has had itseffect on several levels. "Before VTM, wenoted a 3% share of Belgian product in theoverall sales figures," says Cloeckaert."Today we have been able to consolidate ahealthy 11 to 13% share which proves thatVTM has been the impetus to create theideal climate for local talent.

"In addition, VTM has clearly found theblind spot in the market and allows therecord companies to directly target their audi-ences. In the past, viewers watched foreign

Leopold III (Indisc)

stations to see their favourite artists and Belgianrecord companies had limited impact in themedia. VTM made the industry less dependentof foreign stations and allowed local companiesto follow a well-defined policy to promote theirartists.

"A third important aspect is the possibility tohave commercial advertising on VTM [notallowed on BRTN channels] which has helpedthe industry in boosting the CD market. Wewere given the ideal instrument to reach abroad audience to advertise our back catalogueand major new releases," explains Cloeckaert.

EMI Music Belgium MD Dirk de Clippeleiradds that the simultaneous launch of VTM andthe CD boom has been the real ignition for localtalent and cites both Clouseau and De Kreun-ers to illustrate his statement. "Both bandswould have made it on their own, I'm sure, butVTM has speeded up their successes enor-mously; in the case of De Kreuners, VTMhelped to re -launch their career. Soulsister andThe Radios would have also possibly brokenwithout the station, but again, VTM really

Def Dames Dope (Indisc)

helped them build theircareers."

InfluencesBeyondThe TV ScreenDe Clippeleir is convincedthat even BRTN's RadioDonna with its 15% shareof the Flanders market hasprofited from VTM as thecommercial TV stationpaved the way for numer-ous other media. "RadioDonna is like a VTM radiostation," he says, "and noone will deny that the BRTNhas been programming

more music since VTM started. In '87/88 therewas virtually no attention for local talent, butnewspapers and magazines like Story and DagAllemaal all tie in with VTM's stars. VTM surelyplayed a pioneering role in promoting both localand international music, and although the othermedia seem to have caught up with VTM in pro-moting local talent, VTM still remain leader ofthe pack."

Relations with VTM and the local recordcompanies are for this very reason nothing toscorn at, one of the faithful followers being theman responsible for the success of Clouseau:Hans Kusters, MD of HKM, a company recog-nised for its commitment to local acts. Withartists like Clouseau, Ingeborg, Stef Bos andLeopold III, Kusters had VTM's attention forlocal product as a solid backup. "In fact, I waslucky because at the time when VTM provokedthe real boom only a few independents hadlocal signings, the majors following afterwards. Ihaven't changed our policy since and I am con-vinced that it takes investments and selectivityto work successfully in the local market. Walk-ing along andhoping for aone-shot hitisn't enough."

Accordingto Kusters,the VTM hasbeen respon-sible for creat-ing a com-plete newmusic cultureand what hecalls "localchauvinism.""Ten yearsago, Flemishaudienceswere watchingDutch chan-nels-VTM has changed this. The station hasreversed the old saying, 'What you don't hear orsee will not sell and won't become a hit."

"I directly credit VTMfor creating a Flemish

market independentfrom Holland, and for

bringing Flemish artistsclose to their audiences."

- BMG Ariola BegiumMD Derk Jolink

Hard ProofThere may be no one better than BMG AriolaBelgium MD Derk Jolink to see VTM's influ-ence on the industry as he has had the opportu-nity to lead a record company before and afterthe launch of the station. In '87/88 he headedSony Music (then CBS) in Brussels, returning toBMG Ariola to replace Jan Theys in January1991.

"When I first came here, the Belgian recordindustry hardly worked on local A&R because

VTM 4 MUSIC & MEDIA ADVERTISING SUPPLEMENT JUNE 18, 1994


there was no real independent market: Flanderswas dominated by Dutch TV and radio, Dutchand English charts and offered virtually noexposure for local talent. In 1991 I really felt theimpact of two -and -a -half years of VTM: most ofthe majors had been investing in local A&R andevery company had their line of successfulartists. I directly credit VTM for creating a Flem-ish market independent from Holland, and forbringing Flemish artists close to their audi-ences," says Jolink.

At BMG Ariola, top -selling artists like HelmutLotti and Bart Kaell have pavedthe way for a new generation ofFlemish talent like PhilippeRobrecht and Isabelle A. whorecently joined the company.

Jolink adds that the share ofBelgian talent in overall recordsales is as high as in Holland, "butone should take into account thatthe south of the country is ratherpoor in contributing local productsales, which makes the result inFlanders even more impressive."

An InternationalTouchThe fact that VTM also invitesnumerous national and interna-tional artists to very popular talkshows created a very healthy situ-ation for a record industry insearch for new outlets and promo-tion opportunities.

"VTM haven't limited them-selves to promoting Flemish lan-guage product; the station's talkshows and quizzes like 'Love Let-ters' are the ideal tool to promoteother artists as well," agrees ARSProductions artist marketing

director Gino Moerman, "and thebest example is perhaps Kid Safari,who sold 4.000 albums in the twoweeks following his appearance onthe show. His first album sold 8.000,and VTM helped him to cross the28.000 figure with The RomanticHeroes. VTM has encouraged therecord industry to invest in local tal-ent and today the station offers theopportunity to introduce a wide rangeof artists to a very broad audience."

The Radios (EMI)

Clouseau (EMI)

Some insiders say that the local talentmarket is stabilising, and that "10 Om TeZien" isn't the talent cradle it used to be.De Clippeleir agrees to a certain point butnames Dana Winner as an artist whorecently profited from the show's impacton record -buying audiences. "'Tien Om TeZien' still helps sell records. The pro-gramme might have lost some of its audi-ence over the past five years, but in myknowledge it's still the most popular musicshow on TV here. Whereas the showplayed an instrumental role in breakingFlemish artists before, it now relies onthem to keep the ratings high."

JOS VAN OOSTERWIJCK:

A Man And His MusicWith a head full of experience as programmer for both radio and TV, Jos van Oosterwijck

had what it took to go ahead with his own consulting company, Music House, in 1989, whichin turn had what it took to give VTM the reputation it has today.

Jos van OosterwijkMD MusicHouse

usic House really steppedinto the VTM challengewithout any written agree-ment; an evaluation oneyear after the station'slaunch was to decidewhether VTM's music pro-gramming would continueor not. And indeed, VanOosterwijck succeeded intaking away the recordindustry's doubts aboutthe success of the newcommercial TV station.

"The only thing wewanted to do was supportBelgian product, and wehoped to have someFlemish hits at the end of

the line," claims Van Oosterwijck. "Everythingwas new to us-artists like Will Tura and WillySommers were new to a substantial part ofVTM's audience because they were never giventhat exposure on state television."

Van Oosterwijck recalls his years as musicprogrammer for the BRTN TV when artists hadtwo or three opportunities in 18 months toappear on TV shows. "This clearly illustratesthat the potential wasn't there. It takes quite asolid basis, like other prime -time shows along-side the music programmes to make it all workout," he says, referring to family entertainmenton VTM like "Love Letters", "Tilt" (hosted byMTV's Mark Vanthilt), "VTM Soundmix Show"and talk shows such as "1 Uit De 1.000" and"Luc" which often invite artists on the show.

VTM decided to leave all music consulting toVan Oosterwijck which he believes leads tomore effective and consequent programming.Today, everybody in the industry knows who totalk to at VTM when it comes to music program-ming.

Turn To The Music ManMusic House has established a good workingrelationship with the record companies in Bel-gium, with a healthy interaction when it comesto inviting both local and international artists. "Ifyou work with record companies you work fore-most with people; you try to keep close contactand automatically things start running smoothly.Trying to achieve results together is our targetand although our roads sometimes go differentdirections, we do come to an agreement mostof the time. I think most companies are awarethat we are foremost trying to make good TV; ifsome artists don't fit in our programming thedialogue between us must remain open," saysVan Oosterwijck.

"The result of the whole policy is that wehave been able to grow real hits; an entire line-up of new artists has emerged and the industryhas become aware of the new possibilities.They have decided to invest vast budgets inlocal talent, allowing them to record with top -class musicians in quality recording studios.New studios have been opened and the audio-visual market started to live here." The excellentresults with local artists in turn inspired manyrecord companies to spend international bud-gets to launch them abroad.

"And the flow of new artists continues; Irecently did a name check on the Levenslijnfund-raising single, with some 30 Flemish artists

contributing, and noted that at least half of themdidn't even exist two years ago."

"The success of '10 Om Te Zien' is so evi-dent at times that some almost expect the pro-gramme to make a hit out of every single recordperformed," says Van Oosterwijck, "and I do

Helmut Lotti (8MG) admit thatother mediaare paying agrowingamount ofattention tolocal artists,but VTM isvery often theignition deto-nating aseries ofevents." Hetakes theexample ofGood Shape

month their album went gold. This brings us towhat really matters: the artist must have thepotential as well," says the Music House MD.

A Waterproof ChartChart shows have always been important forevery broadcaster, yet today, VTM is the onlyone to have both a Flemish ("10 Om Te Zien")and international chart show ("Super 50"). Insid-ers credit Van Oosterwijck's efforts to compilethe "perfect" record chart which has forced IFPIto rethink their Belgian chart.

The Flemish chart was initially based onIFPI's figures until several inconsistenciesurged Van Oosterwijck to change it: the charthad become so important that insiders tried tomanipulate the figures by supplying incorrectsales numbers and orchestrating singles ship-ments administration. "In the past I informedIFPI on the discrepancies of their chart. I don'twant to go round IFPI but they should know

Bart Kaell (Sony) their limitations,"advocates VanOosterwijck. "Timeand time again I'veasked IFPI for'Flemish' sales fig-ures and I reallyapplaud the indus-try's efforts to re-structure the exist-ing IFPI chart."

Today, the com-pilation of the "10Om Te Zien" chartis his best keptsecret what hefinds an ideal wayto prevent outsidersfrom manipulatingthe chart. The"Super 50" list is amix of sales and

airplay data, provided by 110 Flemishrecord stores, IFPI and the playlist of anumber of privates including RadioContact affiliates.

Van Oosterwijck, still working asmusic programmer for BRTN's StudioBrussel, prefers not to comment onVTM's plans to launch a radio opera-tion. "I would really welcome the initia-tive. Within the BRTN, people feared

the launch of a VTM radio station and cameback with the launch of Radio Donna, but Don-na's in its third year now with no sign yet of aVTM radio station."

On a long-term basis, Van Oosterwijck has abright eye for the future but he's well aware thatthe globalisation of the market will possiblyresult in major markets deciding which game toplay.

(continued from page 3)

ernment has rejected its application. Depraeterebelieves the current situation where a state broad-caster has five commercially supported radio sta-tions and VTM gets no access regions with differ-ent legislation on certain elements such as audiovisual. The south of the country understands it is.better-also on a European level-to stimulatepossibilities here. Our Flemish government is con-stantly issuing decrees and I have the impression.that their only mission is to discourage successfulinitiatives like ours."

Depraetere adds that it was the BRTN itselfwho launched the rumour about VTM's radiooperations as an argument to launch RadioDonna.

VTM's music programmes have had a tremen-dous impact on the local music industry andDepraetere says that the forte of programmes like"Tien Om Te Zien" lies in the fact that the station

promotes and banks on Flemish artists.Although Depraetere is very much for support-

ing domestic product, he doesn't believe it's thegovernment's role to support local talent, takingthe new Belgian author's rights law currently inthe Senate into account.

"On the contrary, one should not exaggeratethe whole neighbouring rights problem, becausein the end the system could be suffocating itself. Ifsmaller stations like ours have to pay extra rightsin addition to the author's rights [SABEM] andartist's fees we might have to fold back on ourartistic budgets. Besides this, I doubt whetherthose rights really go back to those who reallydeserve them."

"It's very difficult to run a business like ours inFlanders," concludes Depraetere, "because politi-cal interference is slowing down everythinginstead of stimulating it. But VTM's results andmarket figures are there to prove that we areheading in the good direction."

MA Ratings(continued from page 1)

interviews in September until thetime the MA results come out inJune. Newly launched stationsoften just miss being included,while other stations find themselveshaunted by mistakes they made 12months previously.

Rock format Delta Radio/KielPD Adam Hahne points out that inthe time it takes for results to becollated and published, valuableadvertising could have been soldand run. "It takes over a year to fig-ure in the ratings. It is not difficultto create national advertising dol-lars in that time."

The delay in the MA resultsbeing published is a problem acrossthe board, he says.

"The problem for every stationis that you receive ratings whichmirror the market as it was over sixmonths or more ago. This meansstations have no chance to reactquickly on programming problemsor advantages. Here at Delta weadjusted our format in January, butthe MA will only reflect listeners'preference from September '93 toFebruary '94. With bad luck myteam will receive a bill for mistakesthey aren't doing any more! This isnot the best motivation!"

The decision to introduce inter-im ratings has already been taken inone market-Berlin/ Brandenburg.The market was deemed so com-petitive and rapidly changing thatannual ratings were not sufficient tosatisfy advertisers' demands.

Public SFB/ORB stations Fritzand B2 launched in February '93and were not be included in thatyear's annual MA ratings, as thelast wave of research had just fin-ished. With the introduction of six -monthly figures, however, theyappeared for the first time in Febru-ary '94.

The long-awaited concessionsat the MA-after over 20 years ofreporting electronic media- reflecta great deal of pressure from radiomarketing groups such as RMSand IPA.

Finally, improvements are nowscheduled for '95/96 and the intro-duction of at least one interimreport is expected for the whole ofGermany, according to MA execu-tive Peter Hesse.

Research will be conducted infour instead of two waves, whichwill level out fluctuations and dif-ferences throughout the year. Thismeans the current sample surveysfrom September to December andJanuary to February will be altered.

In '95, the research period willspan from August until the end ofFebruary and in '96 it will beextended, running from March untilDecember, conducted in fourwaves. Hesse predicts six monthresults will be available in autumn'95, with the results from the firsttwo waves.

"Now that the radio market inthe new Btindeslander is stabilis-ing, we are aiming towards an MAin the near future in which data iscollected throughout the year," hesays.

Improvements in the methodol-

ogy have also been instigated, withan increase in the number of inter-views from 34.000 to 51.000.Broadcasters welcome this asanother step in the right directiontowards providing more accuratedata. Many complained previouslythat the MA sample was too smallto present an accurate picture of atotal population of over 60 million.

wri, Radio Germany MDBerndt von zur Miihlen agreesthat these changes are badly need-ed. The MA should be constantlyupdating its methodology in pacewith the dynamic changes in theradio industry, he says. "Private andpublic stations in Germany arefinding themselves in the out-moded situation of not being ableto document the power of radioclearly or frequently enough incomparison to print and televisionmedia. While television can docu-ment its results daily via the GfK,radio has to be satisfied with resultsjust once a year from the MediaAnalyse." Von zur Miihlen says allthis makes it imperative that theMedia Analyse gradually step upits reports. "Four times a yearwould be an adequate number oftimes a year for the ratings, just likein France."

He also points out that more fre-quent ratings for Germany wouldmean that the radio industry wouldraise its low prices for advertisingto offset the rising costs for increas-es in ratings. He concludes, "Whatmatters most in the development ofthe MA in the radio industry is toget more refined and extensive datafor advertisers about the demo -

Battle Of The Bootlegs(continued from page 1)

IFPI legal adviser MargoLangford says the organisationhas a "grocery basket" of argu-ments why the judges should lookat the law in a new light. Amongthese are the contentions that theperformers concerned are entitledto have their reputations protectedand that bootlegging is anti -com-petitive because it exploits theinvestments other companies havemade in the artists.

Langford states, "Article 80 ofthe Italian Copyright Act providesthat performers must be paid forall reproductions of their live per-formances. IFPI's claim is basedon the legal interpretation that thisprovision presupposes consent bythe performers for the originalrecording of the concert."

In addition, Langford arguesthat IFPI's case is further bolsteredby the European Commission'srental directive which gives theartist sole rights over perfor-mances. The directive was intend-ed to have been adopted intonational legislation in all EU statesby July 1, although local parlia-mentary complications mean nonation has yet taken it up.

Langford also states that theinternational GATT agreementwhich comes into force next yearwill require all GATT memberstates-of which Italy is one-tooutlaw bootlegging.

Langford comments, "At pre-sent, Italian bootlegging is anenormous problem. These fivecompanies have extremely widedistribution networks; more than50 countries have reported seeingbootlegs from these companies.As for the artists involved, the big-ger they are, the more likely theyare to be bootlegged."

Although no comment wasforthcoming from four of the com-panies by the time M&M went topress, Red Line's Gallotti says,"Article 8/80 of law 663 (1941)says we can produce live record-ings if we make a deposit infavour of the artists."

He states that before eachrecord is produced, his companyseeks permission from Italianauthors' society SIAE. For eachCD pressed, the company thendeposits L1.000 (app. US$.64)with SIAE and puts anotherLI .000 into an account for collec-tion by the artist. "So far, onlyMotorhead have collected," Gal-lotti says.

He adds, "There is a differencebetween a traditional bootleg andthe live CDs we produce. A tradi-tional bootleg is a recording with-out permission of the performerand non-payment of mechanicalrights."

Though admitting that RedLine does not have permission torecord, he maintains, "Our lawyersays that only artists can present acase against us and not the pro-ducers or their organisation IFPI

because we do not reproduce theirproduct."

Langford counters, "IFPI hasbeen able to bring these proceed-ings with the special cooperationof U2, Madonna, Prince, PhilCollins and Guns 'N Roses."

Red Line's live CD catalogueincludes recordings of PinkFloyd, The Beatles and theRolling Stones.

Traditionally, bootlegs havebeen legal in Italy because of theway Article 80 of Italian copyrightlaw has been interpreted. It hasbeen taken to mean that if moneyis deposited for collection, no per-mission from performers isrequired before reproducing a con-cert recording.

Europe's other source of boot-leg product, Germany, was largelyclosed off last year when actionwas taken in the name of PhilCollins claiming protection thereequal to that of German nationals.The European Court ruled in thatcase that Germany must not dis-criminate between its own citizensand others from with the EU.

European law also states thatdomestic copyright legislation issovereign over free trade provi-sions, meaning that it is illegal toimport Italian bootleg product intoother EU states. Nonetheless, theabsence of internal borders in theUnion makes this difficult topolice.

graphics and lifestyle of our listen-ers."

Meanwhile Delta Radio'sHahne says that, although he is sat-isfied with the MA methodology, incomparison with other media likeTV, radio gets a bad deal with rat-ings only once a year. "Clients arepaying for a product which mighthave changed, and there is no wayof getting information about thisfact."

Martin Schmitz radio saleshouse IPA sales director says hehopes that the MA will becomefaster in the future with more re-ports based on interviews. "A sec-ond report from the MA '95 wouldhelp innovative stations to seequicker results from formatchanges. (RTL-Der Oldiesenderwill now get the first MA results 20months after its format change).And we will then have figures thatare not only based on Autumn/Winter listening as they are now."

One change which Schmitzwould really like to see in the MAis more data on cable/satellite sta-tions. "The current MA is still mis-representative of cable/satellite sta-tions. The survey Typologie derWiinsche TdW shows that morethan 56% of the German popula-

tion now have access to either cableor satellite programmes and morethan two thirds of cable householdshave their radio connected to thecable. Unlike the GfK Meter, theMedia Analyse is not differentiat-ing between cable/satellite and non-cable/satellite households. Thecable and satellite stations feel thatthey are being treat unfairly."

Media marketing executive atRadio Marketing Service (RMS)Riidiger Fritz says one of the maincriticisms of the MA is the longwait for the actual ratings to bemade available. "Advertisers andmedia planners all want to see moreup-to-date data," he says.

Fritz says a more modernmethod of collecting the datawould improve the quality of theMA. "In the age of computers amulti -media production is definite-ly conceivable, where logos andjingles of stations are blendedtogether to trigger the memory ofthe interviewee. Electronic mea-surements would also be a possibil-ity, if they were methodologicallysound and affordable."

The Media Analyse ratings will bepublished in next week's M&M.

Patricia Kaas(continued from page 1)

Entertainment UK is using arange of innovative marketingploys to translate Kaas' stellar suc-cess at home into equal promi-nence across the Channel.

Based on the release of her newalbum Tour De Chartne and a one-off London show on June 23, thecampaign includes sponsorship byPerrier, promotion in the 20 -

strong Cafe Rouge chain and directappeals to the UK's French com-munity.

Brian Yates, marketing direc-tor at Columbia UK, says he firstbecame aware of the extent ofKaas' international potential whenhe saw that she had a 300.000 -sell-ing album in Germany. "If Frenchmusic can sell in Germany andother territories, I didn't see a rea-son why it shouldn't sell across theChannel," he states. "I know peo-ple haven't been successful indoing it before, but I want to see ifwe can find a way of being suc-cessful this time."

Yates and marketing consultantDidier Zerath, formerly withBMG and EMI in France, decidedthe key to translating Kaas' successwas to retain her essential French-ness. For that reason, her UK showwill contain only the handful ofsongs she customarily sings inEnglish with the rest in French.

They also felt that it was impor-tant to associate her with essential-ly French products, notably Perri-er, and to ensure posters andleaflets were available in theFrench embassy in London and inother government offices andschools. On top of that, Kaas'lyrics are being used to teachFrench to the 2.500 UK students ofthe Affiance Francaise, and theorganisation is assisting in thesponsorship of her concert.

In addition, the deal with CafeRouge means that not only willKaas' music be played in the restau-rants, but customers will be madeaware that they can buy a tape ordisc and have it put on their bill.

Zerath comments, "This is thefirst time cassettes and CDs havebeen sold in restaurants, the firsttime Perrier has sponsored an artistand the first time the UK will haveheard Kaas' music consistently."

The campaign will also involvedirect marketing to the UK'sFrench community who, it is

hoped, will spread their enthusiasmfor Kaas to their British friends,neighbours and colleagues.

The first stage of the campaignis being underpinned with inter-views in the mid -market newspa-pers but, Yates says, there is noplan for a single at this stage. Radiois involved, however, as LondonEHR broadcaster Capital Radio isco -promoting Kaas' UK show andother London stations are carryingcompetitions for tickets.

Says Yates, "We wanted thepress base in place first then thenext part is the concert." Allied tothe concert will be interviews onCapital and the BBC's station forLondon, GLR.

"After that we'll bring her induring the autumn to do TV showsand then we'll release a single."

Yates believes Kaas potentialUK audience is in the 25-40 agerange and tends to be at the moresophisticated end of the musicmarket, favouring such acts asWhitney Houston, Elton John orMichael Bolton.

Asked how British fans' tradi-tional disdain for non-Englishlyrics will be overcome, he says,"People are more ambitious intheir musical tastes than they usedto be. They're looking for some-thing a bit different. This is 1994,after all, and we do have a ChannelTunnel now."

SIRTI REJECTS CARIGNON'S DECREE: Independent Frenchradio syndicate SIRTI has rejected the decree prepared by minister ofcommunication Alain Carignon concerning the deregulation of theradio scene and the access of national radio to local and regionaladvertising markets. SIRTI claims that the decree as it stands would"condemn" independent radio stations. SIRTI maintains that local sta-tions would become "prey to satisfy the appetite for frequencies of thenational operators" and that the decree would authorize national sta-tions unlimited access to the local advertising market.

Two months ago, a poll inStockholm showed we had become leaders in this city and now, withthese results in Gothenberg and Malmo, where we have a 55% marketshare, we can say we are now the first private radio group of Swe-den." He added that these results prove that "the concept and the for-mat can be exported with success."

Radio Celebrates D -DayFRANCE/UKby Jeff Clark -Meads

The tide of remembrance sur-rounding the 50th anniversary ofthe D -Day landings rolled backthe years for radio stations onboth sides of the Channel.

British MOR broadcasterSouth Coast Radio inPortsmouth and French EHRregional net RVS Normandieboth carried '40s music, news andfeatures over the commemorationperiod.

In addition to the periodmusic, South Coast Radio alsocarried Hollywood gossip fromthe time and ran contemporary

recipes. Head of music Jim Hickssays, "We had a very, very goodreaction to what we did. Becauseof that favourable response, we'llhave to give thought to whetherwe're going to do something likethis again for the other upcominganniversaries."

At RVS Normandie, even theads and jingles were in the styleof 1944 and the journalists cover-ing events on the coast abandonedtheir sophisticated 1994 style forthe simpler approach of 50 yearsago. The station also secured aninterview with French presidentFrancois Mitterand, and ran acompetition for listeners to wincompilations of '40s music.

EBU's Sharf Counters BerlusconiSWITZERLANDby Julia Sullivan

In his opening speech for the sec-ond Montreux Radio Sympo-sium on June 9, EBU presidentAlbert Sharf issued an unam-biguous condemnation ofattempts by Italian prime ministerSilvio Berlusconi to restrict thefreedom of Italian pubcaster RAI,and reminded present companythat it is the responsibility of allbroadcasters to stand up for theobjectivity of public broadcasting.

"If a prime minister wherevertries to misunderstand the purposeof broadcasting, we must comeout against it," he said. "If Berlus-coni tries to claim that not only

Finivest but RAI are his domain,we must show him he is wrong,"he added.

"We should not allow such anexample to be set, just as our col-leagues in Eastern Europe aremaking such progress in estab-lishing broadcasting systems."

Scharf was one of three speak-ers introducing the symposium,all of whom refered to the out -sanding issues facing today'sradio industry, namely the adventof DAB and other new technolog-ical advances and the role of pub-lic versus private broadcasting.

Guest speaker Lord Chalfontwarned of the dangers of increas-ing broadcasting opportunitiesand the temptation to chase rat-

ings success above editorial quali-ty. Objectivity, decency, news/opinion distinction and care forlanguage heritage were four prior-ities radio has a duty to maintain,he said. "Public service broadcast-ing should not be solely thedomain of state-owned broadcast-ers," he stressed, pointing out thatprivate radio has responsibilitiesto the public it should not forget.

Eastern European attendanceat the symposim was high, repre-senting some 12% of the 500 reg-istered participants. Over 30countries were represented, inclu-ding Uganda, Paraguay, Argentinaand Thailand.

agement at the RAI. Meanwhile,Berlusconi has commented thatministerial approval of the corpo-ration's restructuring plans andthree-year budget due for the endof this month was under reconsid-eration.

Berlusconi's position outragedRAT journalists, opposition partiesand some members of his owncoalition. Opposition PDS partyleader Achille Occhetto comment-ed, "The real anomaly is that thePrime Minister is proprietor ofthree TV networks." MeanwhileUmberto Bossi, leader of Berlus-coni's coalition partner. the North-

ern League (Lega Nord) Party said,"[Berlusconi] has three TV net-works which manipulate daily,every second, people's minds.Berlusconi's manipulation of hischannels is much worse than any-thing the RAI does."

Giorgio Balzoni, secretary ofthe RAI journalists union USI-GRAI, stated, "They want to deala final blow to the RAT. Theirobjective is to impede approval ofthe three-year plan and remove anypossibility of its reprisal."

Last week, Marco Taradash, aRadical Party deputy and memberof Berlusconi's governing coalitionwas appointed President of the Par-liamentary watchdog commissionon the RAT. Taradash immediately

called for the abolition of commer-cials on the state broadcaster andrequested Rome magistrates toinvestigate the RAI on grounds ofcorruption and political bias. Thecommission's VP FrancescoStorace of the extreme rightNational Affiance (AN) Party, alsopart of the governing coalition,called for the replacement of RAI'sboard of governors by August andthe nullification of any journalisticappointments made by them.

RAI journalists protested out-side the Italian parliament on June8 and called for Italian PresidentLuigi Scalfaro to intervene, claim-ing the attacks on the RAI wereattempts by the government tocontrol the country's news agenda.

Sony Denmark(continued from page 1)

Denmark's current MD, Steen Sor-genfrei, will be leaving as of July1, to be replaced by Pladecompag-niet's co-founder and MD, JanDegner (43). Until the end of theyear, Sorgenfrei will act as a con-sultant to the company. Pladecom-pagniet's current staff of six willmove to Sony's headquarters inCopenhagen. It is yet unclear whatthe name of the merged companywill become, although the Plade-compagniet name will remainintact.

Pladecompagniet was foundedin 1988 by Degner and singer/songwriter Anne Linnet, bothowning 50%. Over the years,Pladecompagniet has turned intoone of Denmark's leading indepen-dent companies with a strongdomestic roster comprising ofnames like TV 2, Sound OfSeduction, Danser Med Drengeand many albums by Linnet. Thesinger's debut album, releasedaround the launch of the label, soldsome 450.000 copies across Scan-dinavia, a remarkable number for amarket where a platinum certifica-tion is worth 100.000 copies sold.Pladecompagniet's important stakein the domestic talent scene is citedas a significant factor leading tothe deal by Sony Music Interna-tional senior VP Richard

Denekamp. "The Danish marketmay look small but it is an interest-ing one as local repertoire takessuch a high percentage. Sony'sshare of the national market wassmall, so the combination of thetwo [companies] can be very inter-esting." According to the latestEFPI figures, EMI -Medley is mar-ket leader with an estimated 20%,followed by PolyGram (18%),BMG (15%) and Sony (12.5%).With Pladecompagniet's marketshare around 5%, the merged com-pany might compete with Poly -Gram for the number two slot.

The one remaining major Dan-ish independent is Mega, the homeof Ace Of Base. Says Denekamp,"The deal also ensures us thatinternational exploitation of localtalent is guaranteed. We're [obvi-ously] all looking for the next AceOf Base."

, "Safeguarding" the future of hisacts has been Degner's motivationto enter into the agreement withSony, he says. "An interactionbetween national and internationalrepertoire will give us an addedstrength. I strongly believe thatboth locally produced dance musicand the new [brand of] Danishrock stand a great chance of con-quering the international market-place."

The deal marks Sony's firstacquisition on the Continent.According to Denekamp, "[Sony's]

market share is not achievedthrough acquisitions. Internalgrowth has always been our phi-losophy. However, this was anopportunity too good to miss."

Degner was an A&R managerfor then CBS Records during1981-87. Over the years, Degnermanaged to attract several newbands including acts that were for-merly signed to CBS like TV2 andJohnny Madsen. Sony Denmark,however, failed to build a solidnational roster and the return ofDegner to Sony also ends the 14 -year directorship of Sorgenfrei.

"It has always been Degner'sintention to become part of amulti -national to guarantee thefuture of his acts," says Denekamp."When we started our negotiations[January 1994], he had clear ambi-tions to lead the merged club. Wecan't have two MDs, so Sorgenfreihad to go."

One insider, close to the deal,refers to Degner's ability of being"incredibly strict with money. Thecompany was in the black all theway from the beginning. Theywere fmancially very strong."Another source says, "They werethe last strong indie and its a verysmart move for Sony-the lastthing they could possibly do here."

Although no prices wererevealed by Sony, sources put thedeal between Dkr20-30 million(app. US$3-4 million).

Pretenders' PrimacyAfter having spent three weeks at number 2, thePretenders have finally made it to the top during theirninth charting week, forcing the Symbol to hand overthe ranks after an impressive seven -week reign. ThePretenders are still enjoying counting adds (this weekin Germany and France) and upward conversions(Germany, Holland, Italy and the UK), indicating levelpromotion from medium to heavy rotation. Theirupward conversion ratio measures 10% this week, aremarkably high proportion for a record already thathigh in the chart.

On a regional scale, the Pretenders also climb tonumber 1 in the Central region (German-speakingareas) and return to number 1 in the West Central aftera two-week absence (see Regional Airplay, page 27).In a country -by -country analysis, I'll Stand By Youproduces the best figures in Holland, Finland andAustria (100% penetration), Germany (87%) andBelgium (77%).

Wet Wet Wet's cover version of the Troggs' 1967hit Love Is All Around has earned the Radio Activeaward for the second consecutive week, as it has onceagain registered the biggest chart -point gain. Therecord jumps up 14 places from number 21 to 7(highest leap of the week), whereas on a regional level,it grabs the number 1 position in the Northwest (see

Regional Airplay again). Most of the Scotsmen's 20new adds (second best of the week) appear inGermany, Denmark and Sweden. Love Is All Around isnow best spread in the Czech Republic (100%),followed by the UK (89%) and Germany (65%).

The highest new entry in this week's EHR Top 40(at number 24) goes to another cover version, All 4One's interpretation of John Michael Montgomery'sUS country number I hit I Swear, a track from hiscurrent album Kickin' It Up. The US vocal group'sversion-currently number 1 in the US-qualifies asMost Added leader on EHR, as it has assembled noless than 22 first-time reports, which produce amagnificent 49% spreading angle.

Denmark stands out as the record's core support basethis side of the Atlantic, as no less than 14 reports,including nine adds, and a leading 74% penetrationratio are being registered in that country. Sweden, theUK and Germany are standing next in line (26-56%).

For all artists appearing on this chart, the Region Of Signing is North America.

Entering this week's BorderBreakers chart with a loud bang atnumber 16 is Italian dance act Cap-pella. Not only are they enjoyingmassive radio support in the UK,where radio attention far eclipses theairplay support in their native Italy,but are also making inroads else-

where. In the UK. BBC Radio 1. the Metro RadioGroup and the major Scottish EHR outlets Forth RFMand Radio Clyde are now joined by Capital FM/Londonand 96.4FM-BRMB/Birmingham. On the continent, therecord has started to chart in the Netherlands, which notonly led TROS Radio 3 to add it to its playlist, but alsoturned the Dutch pop pubcaster body known as Radio 3into a follower.

In general, Eurodance has been doing very well inmost territories recently, but a new twist is the success ofGerman acts like Maxx with the song Get -A -Way, whichdid well on the continent before. U 96's Inside YourDreams (now on Logic in the UK) is also apparently set toemulate successes by the likes of Haddaway and CultureBeat in the preceding months. Mind you, 2 Unlimited isstill bigger than both of them, however.

The other entry in the chart is Belgian duo Poppadoq'sreggaefied reworking of Paul Anka's 1974 smash ( You're)Having My Baby. Unlike their home country, where theybarely made it to the playlists at all, they received a warmembrace elsewhere, notably Germany, where large andinfluential EHR stations such as FFH/Frankfurt, AntenneBayern/Munich. Radio Regenbogen/Mannheim and

Radio Kohl are joined by ACE heavyweights such asNRW/Oberhausen. Hundert 6/Berlin and Radio 7/Ulm.In Sweden, Radio Stockholm and East FM 106.5/Norrkoping are among the early believers.

In the meantime it's getting lonely at the top. as the gapbetween Roxette's leading single Crash! Boom! Bang! andthe number 2 position is held apart by a massive 17 adds.Expect Roxette to be there for some time to come.

The Regional Crossover charts hack the cross -regional movement of

product. The Border Breakers chart ranks the 25 most successfulContinental European records making airplay impact outside theirregion of signing (airplay achieved in the original region is excludedfrom the calculations).

The second chart, Channel Crossovers, registers the airplay pene-

tration of UK -signed artists in mainland Europe, while the third Top25, the Atlantic Crossover chart, ranks the most successful NorthAmerican artists according to regional airplay impact in Europe.

All three charts are non -format specific. "Region Of Origin' is notnecessarily an indication of where the artist comes from but, more sig-nificantly, where he/she is signed. An increasing number of nationalartists are signed to "foreign" labels and M&M wants to acknowledgethe crossover impact of such deals.

For each record, "Crossover Regions" are listed in order of first-time airplay appearance.
