BRUSSELS - When Paul Rus-sell, president of Sony MusicEntertainment Europe walkedinto a meeting room in theMeridien Hotel, Brussels, onthe morning of July 12, seniorexecutives of BMG, EMI, Poly -Gram, and Warner reportedlygave him a round of applause.
It wasn't a rendezvous todiscuss the European Marketshare statistics. Sony's com-petitors were, in fact, puttingtheir hands together toacknowledge the success of theprevious night, when theInternational Federation ofthe Phonographic Society(IFPI) staged its first Plat-inum Europe awards dinner.Russell had played a centralrole in the introduction andexecution this year of theawards program, which recog-nises those albums with sales(to the trade) of one millioncopies across Europe.
The July 11 event, whichtook place at the Albert Hall inthe Belgian capital, wasnotable for the high -profileparticipation of EuropeanCommission president JacquesSanter. He presented Plat-inum Europe obelisks to eightEuropean acts, spoke to the300 strong audience about themusic industry within Europe,and bestowed, by his presence,the strongest political recogni-tion to date of that industry'sachievements.

Almost There, But...BetweenThe Lines
by Machgiel Bakker
An impressive number of top levelexecutives showed up at the IFPIPlatinum Europe awards dinner inBrussels on July 11.
Anyone who is anyone in Euro-pean music was there, and the eventwas a landmark occasion in theprocess of establishing Europe as apotent region, no longer a secondcousin to the US.
As a first show-and I do hope notthe last-it had everything one couldhave wanted: the artists, the bizz, astylish hall, good food, enough drinksand even some politicians, including
the large staff of EC president Jacques Santer.Pip Dann ensured a pleasant flow of awards, the artists
seemed happy and, in the case of Nana Mouskouri, evensurprised. And who would have thought that it was actual-ly Mouskouri who came up with the most heartfelt andEurope -friendly speech. As IFPI chairman David Finerightly said, "she embodies the spirit of Platinum Europe".Her presence and speech reminded me that Abba can'tclaim to be Europe's first true Border Breaker but thischarming Greek artist (and, lest we forget, member ofEuropean parliament).
However, not all was quite perfect. Next year, the organ-isers should look at introducing some live entertainment.The continuous parade of artists across the stage, acceptingtheir award and saying their thank yous, does tend to dragon a bit and the whole event was crying for some action.
A minor point, but one that struck me as against theidea of European integration, were the seating arrange-ments. I landed at an exclusively Dutch table. I have noth-ing against swapping news with fellow Dutchmen, but Iwould have preferred a mix of different nationalities.
And last but not least, did anyone notice that mainlandEurope's best-selling act was not credited during the intro-duction video collage of the award -winning artists? Theyflashed up for a second, then disappeared again without amention: Europe's collective shame, the Smurfs.
New Ad -Sales PowerHouse Is Forgedby Emmanuel Legrand
PARIS - Europe 1 Communica-tion sales house Europe Regiesand RMC's sales house GEMhave decided to create a seriesof joint advertising servicesunder the banner of Eurogem.
In a statement the twogroups said they will "retaintheir independance," and thattheir shareholding will not bechanged, each companyremaining separate.
Georges Vanderchmitt, whohas been in charge of RMCsince the failure of the privati-sation process earlier thisyear, knew that his saleshouse didn't have enoughleverage alone and had sincebeen seeking a strategic part-nership with another saleshouse.
Although the two compa-nies announced that theywouldn't merge their opera-tions, the two direct competi-tors, Havas IP and NRJ Regie,are concerned that the new
partners could become leadersin the market. As a result,NRJ and IP are consideringcreating a similar venture, inorder to present competitiveoffers on behalf of their clients.
Stations represented byEurope Regies (Europe 1,
Europe 2, Skyrock, RFM, LesIndependants) hold some 26-28% of the national audienceand GEM (RMC, Nostalgieand Montmartre FM) around9%. IP, which sells RTL, FunRadio, RTL2, Sud Radio andWit FM, has a market share ofaround 30%. NRJ's saleshouse NRJ Regie (NRJ, CherieFM, Rires) accounts for some17% of the audience.
NRJ is surprised to see thatthe broadcasting authorityCSA has not reacted to whatNRJ considers to be a blatantcase of radio concentration.But even if the CSA is perfect-ly entitled to rule over acquisi-tion cases, its powers don'tinclude regulation of the activ-ities of sales houses.

Fresh Format ForDutch News Radioby Christian Lorenz
AMSTERDAM - The speculationsaround bankrupt AM stationVeronica News Radio (VNR) areover. Dutch investment compa-ny Manaus has acquired all thestation's assets and plans torelaunch it using the name AM1395 on October 1.
Manaus will change VNR'sformat and cut costs drasticallyto make the station economical-ly viable. "AM 1395 will be atalk station with short newsbulletins four times an hour,"says Jazzradio MD HansKrouwels who is preparing therelaunch. "We focus on regionaland local events. Our newsdepartment will be more costefficient since we use no corre-spondents and no live inter-views." Cable station Jazzradiomarked Manaus' first steps into
the radio market. But the 1994takeover of the former EuroJazzradio and the presentacquisition of VNR do not putan end to the company's driveonto the media scene. "We arecurrently setting up a separateManaus Radio division whichwill control Jazzradio and AM1395," reveals Krouwels. "Thereare plans to extend ManausRadio's activities beyond thesetwo stations, but I cannot revealdetails yet."
Until AM 1395 launches thefrequency is being used forbroadcasts by Jazzradio. "Itwon't increase our audience dra-matically," speculates Krouwels."But it is a good exercise beforeJazzradio applies for a terrestri-al FM frequency next April."AM 1395 has more time to fine-tune its format. The station'sAM licence expires in 1999.

P3 FacesFreelanceBoycottby Keith Foster
S'rocmimm - Freelancereporters and presenters arethreatening to boycott thenational youth pubcaster P3 inan action for better pay.
The freelancers are com-plaining that their fees areextremely low in comparison tothose paid by newspapers andmagazines, and well below theminimum recommended by thenational journalists' union. Oneangry reporter said working forthe sums paid by some pro-grammes was "undignified".
P3 is known for paying lessthan other channels withinSveriges Radio, but editorialchief Inga Ramsten says thatthe problem is due to a very nar-row market. Sveriges Radio isalmost the only opportunityprovider for new radio talent.
In the last two years SverigesRadio has carried out state -imposed budget cuts of 11%, andmany programmes' freelancebudget has borne a large part ofthe cost-cutting burden. Produc-ers say paying higher fees tofreelancers will simply meanfewer freelance opportunities.
Even so, the channel is heavi-ly reliant on freelancers to fill itsprogrammes, and any boycottwould soon have a noticeableeffect. The question is whethersuch an action would hold in theface of freelancers' natural com-petitive desire to make theirmark in the radio industry.Negotiations continue.

a seminar for the future.
Q: How was the Copen-hagen Wild Cards semi-nar originated?A: Leif Skov, director of theRoskilde Festival, FlemingMadsen, former director ofthe Danish Music Informa-tion Centre, and I were hav-ing coffee and discussingmusic seminars we haveattended. We found itstrange that Danes alwaysmeet their compatriotsabroad and not in Denmark.We agreed that we wanted tocreate a seminar in Den-mark. However, we wantedit to be different from otherseminars Out of the bluecame the idea to lookinto the future. The lbpast and present arealways discussed, swand get kind of bor-ing. We decided towalk through atime warp andprognosticate thestate of music in2010, fifteenyears from now.Fifteen years agothe CD had notbeen invented.
Q: What were theaims of the semi-nar?A: The aim was to cre-ate an uninhibitedforum where we could cre-ate scenarios for the future.
Q: What do you feel wasachieved by the seminar?A:We managed to put aninteresting focus on thedevelopment of radio inAfricA: A number of situa-tions were described as like-ly for African radio in 2010.The most interesting sce-nario proposed that a lot ofradio repertoire, be it livebroadcast or release onsound carrier, will come fromthe African radio industry.The world will discover theenormous pool of talent inAfricA:
Q: What was your person-al highlight of the semi-nar?A:That's tough. Africa wasone highlight. However,Jaron Lanier, the inventor ofvirtual reality, had a non-techinical approach to thedevelopment of music and
the music industry.Although we live in a highlytechnical society, real devel-opment requires the devel-opment of the mind and thesoul as well. Technologycan't do it all.
Q: How has radio influ-enced your career?A:If it had not been for radioI would not have got into thebusiness. I started listeningto The Beatles and becametotally absorbed by them.Radio was my source ofinformation. I was the idealconsumer. If I heard a track
I liked, I went and boughtIit. Now I use radio as
any promoter would.
Q: What type ofmusic do you lis-ten to at home?A:Obviously it'scliché to sayeverything. I sel-dom listen torap, hip -hop anddance and Imust confessthat I'm one ofthose people whohas the radioturned on all day.
The station I lis-ten most to is Dan-
ish P3 where I get abroad spectrum of

Q: What would youchange about radio?A:For the sake of music Iwould prohibit format radio.Format radio is a gift fromhell. I don't favour that typeof mono -culture. I would doaway with it.
Q: As a forward thinkingperson, how do youenvisage the future ofradio ?A:If radio takes responsibili-ty for its role, then it has agood future. I still thinkradio is the major source ofmusic for 99% of the popula-tion. Radio must provide avaried repertoire that willgive people a chance to lis-ten to all types of music.Radio needs to give peoplewhat they don't know theywant!

Delkader was closing athree day debate organised bySER at El Escorial near Madridcalled "Live Radio", in whichseveral speakers commented onaspects of radio in seminarsmoderated by the new directorof pubnet Radio Nacional deEspana (RNE), Javier GonzalezFerrari.
Delkader said that spokes-men for the new conservativePopular Party (PP) governmenthad indicated that they would

Commercial ChannelsPrepare For Warby Keith Foster
STOCKHOLM - A government -backed study on radio andtelevision broadcasting in timeof war or national emergencyhas declared that commercialradio channels should sharethe responsibilty of keepingthe public informed.
The commission has beenthe first to consider privatestations, which only becamelegal in Sweden in 1993.Chaired by the formersupreme commander of thearmed forces, the debate wasamong politicians and journal-ists.
The report, which has beenpresented to Minister of Cul-ture Marita Ulvskog, said thatsociety as a whole has aresponsibility to supply citi-zens with information they
need to protect their lives andproperty. It also says privatechannels should be given thesame support the state cur-rently reserves for publicbroadcasters and the dailypress in wartime. At the sametime, all channels would berequired to include state -pro-duced announcements. Thecommission gave radio thehighest priority, pointing outthe heavier demands on powersupplies posed by TV broad-casts.
The report will be evaluat-ed by the ministry of culturebefore it has any chance ofbecoming law, but it is unusalfor such a high-powered com-mission to be ignored by gov-ernment. Stations aroundSweden are likely to beginplanning their wartime cam-paigns now.

Daniel Gavela, SER news/talk director, said that often onSpanish radio, "There is anexcess of trash and a lack ofintellect [and some radio jour-

University professorand director of SER'sRadio Barcelona, JosepMaria Marti, was wor-ried about the youthaudience. He predictedthat in a future of morenetworks due totelecommunications lib-

Chirac To BeConfrontedBy SIRTIby Emmanuel Legrand
PARIS - The radio organisa-tion SIRTI, responsible forregrouping independent opera-tors, is to write to French pres-ident Jacques Chirac urginghim to ensure that the broad-casting authority CSA, "Willhave the time and means toestablish itself in the longterm as the regulation bodyand judge of the French audio-visual system."
SIRTI also aims to pointout how important it is forlocal and regional independentstations to see a stabilisationof the legal regulations repre-sented by the CSA. "Today,the CSA is criticised by someoperators for its radio regula-tion, and there are rumours ofpossible changes in the legisla-tion in this field," writes SIRTIpresident Philippe Gault.
Gault agrees that the body"can be improved" but he saysthat to guarantee a diversifiedand pluralist radio field, thereis a need for a strong andrespected authority with clearrules.
"If the CSA is criticised, itis because it has to arbitratethe needs for frequencies bylocal independant stations andnational operators, in order topreserve the balance of theradio landscape."

M& M REPOR PROGRAMMING OLDIES
The Test Of TimeHow do programmers at contemporary radio stations choose the oldies to playalongside today's chart hits? Does the roster of all-time classics remain fairlyconstant, or do listeners' tastes change over time? Music & Media talks toprogrammers of EHR and ACE stations in the UK, France and Spain.
T KENT'S Invicta FM inthe UK, programmemanager Sandy Beechcasts a careful eye overbackcatalogue researchconducted by Invicta'sparent company, Capital
Radio/London. "I look out for songs whichregister high positive or high negativescores," he says, ''but I don't use the [Cap-ital Radio] figures for 'burnout,' becausethis can vary widely from market to mar-ket, depending how much airplay a trackhas received in the past from stations inthat area. A track which is burnt -out inone market may not be in another."
Beech says that he programmes theoldies on Invicta FM through a combina-tion of research and "gut feel". He paysclose attention to whether an oldie fits inwell with contemporary chart hits,"although I won't play an oldie that Ithink fits well, but tests badly," he says.He is also careful not to programmerecords which he feels are particularlyassociated with rival radio stations. "Dif-ferent oldies are owned by different[radio] brands, and we are careful not toplay our competitors'."
Working for a small independent radiocompany, MFM/Wrexham programmedirector Terry Underhill has to pro-gramme by "gut feel," as he doesn't haveaccess to music research data. But heclaims that even if he did have access tosuch figures, they would only be used toconfirm or reject his gut feel-he wouldnot programme oldies purely on the basisof raw data.
"Wedding Records""Often tracks which score very highlyin music research, such as SummerNights, don't sound good alongsidecurrent records, even though theyare undoubtedly extremely popular,"he explains. "They are what I call'wedding reception records'. Peoplelove to hear them very occasionally-which is why they score well inresearch-but they wouldn't like tohear them all the time. On the otherhand, there are tracks which don't scoreso well in research-like the Dooby Broth-ers' What A Fool Believes-which don'tsound dated, and sound really greatalongside current material."
Underhill describes his job in selectingoldies as "recognising naffiiess-peoplereally do notice when you play somethingweak."
Both Underhill and Invicta's Beechsay they update and review their oldiesdata -bases at regular intervals. Butalthough Underhill believes that listen-ers' all-time favourites can change overtime, the real classics rarely change"Even those who don't like songs likeBohemian Rhapsody will put up with
Rick Astley (left) and Jason Donovan (right): definitely not on the playlist at MFM.
hearing it on the radio, because theyrecognise it as being a classic."
However, Underhill is quick to dumprecords (or even whole genres of music)which may have been extremely popularin their time, but which he feels have notstood the test of time. He cites theStock/Aitken/Waterman hits of the late'80s by the likes of Kylie Minogue, RickAstley and Jason Donovan as examples."Cheap, quickly produced soap -opera popis dead-I have no time for it."
Beech agrees with Underhill about theless -than -enduring qualities of many
Sandy Beech Nicolas Du Roy
PWL releases. He also adds, "Some of thecommercial radio classics, like PeterGabriel's Sledgehammer, which was theclassic out -of -the news track a few yearsago, have just died because they havebeen overplayed. Also, I think a lot of theearly '90s pop-stuff like Shabba Ranksand Color Me Badd-was not of goodquality."
Beech suggests a couple of possiblereasons why records which were consid-ered highly playable at the time have notstood the test of time. "Sometimes a songwas popular because it was released atthe height of summer, and fitted in wellwith the mood of the time. Play the samerecord a couple of years later on the mid-
dle of winter, and the magic has gone.Also, some records which are of a distinctstyle can sometimes be affected by subse-quent poor quality releases in that samestyle. For example, I think Ace Of Baserecords have been tainted by the subse-quent development of low -quality Euro-pop."
Size Matters?A further dilemma facing programmers ishow large to make their oldies data -bases.Should they go for a numerically small,
high -rotation database restricted tothe "true" classics, or should they pro-gramme a wider backcatalogue whichwill give the listener more variety?
Beech believes it very much de-pends on the type of station and itsstage of development. "I think that fora new station, it's important to have atight database with a few big songsthat people will start to associate youwith. Then when the station starts togrow, you can be more adventurousand put in a few unique oldies whichnobody else is playing-but you haveto be careful; this is a difficult game to
play. I liken it to recommending a restau-rant to a friend who is a fussy eater. If yourecommend a safe restaurant to him ini-tially, you will gain his trust, and willthen be in a position recommend some-thing a little more exotic."
Rafael Revert, director of Spain's full -service network Cadena 100, uses the ser-vices of the US syndication companyRadio Express for his oldies program-ming. Radio Express provides the stationwith a "Gold Hit" every 90 minutes. Theserange from the love songs of 20 years ago,greatest hits from TV series of the '60sand '70s, and eternal favourites such asElvis and Boney M.
In-house at Cadena 100, the oldies are
selected by programme director CarlosFinaly. "Our oldies go as far back as the'50s, from Rock Around The Clock," saysRevert. "No preference is given to partic-ular artists. An oldie is simply an all-timefavourite, and they do not tend to change.If you like Elvis now you'll almost cer-tainly like him in 10 years time-and ifyou love a particular song you'll like it forlife. For that reason I think it's stupid todrop tracks from your oldies list."
Restrictive QuotasFor music programmers in France, thechoice of oldies is complicated by therecently introduced quota laws whichrequire stations to play a minimum of40% French language music. For EHRstations, this can be a real problem, asthere are limited number of oldies inFrench which appeal to a young public.
Of the oldies played by the ACE -for-matted network Europe 2, 40% are bylocal acts and 60% by internationalartists. Music programmer Nicolas DuRoy says the core of the station's oldiesdata -base consists of 600 tracks whichreceive consistent and regular airplay.There is also another field of 200 lessheavily rotated tracks which are "not asstrong," and a 'back catalogue" of some1000 oldies which are currently "burned"or awaiting a vacancy on the main lists.
Like most French stations, Europe 2relies on music research to test its oldies.Du Roy says that the research is veryimportant to enable the station to spottitles which are no longer part of the lis-teners' repertoire of favourites. Musicresearch was used extensively whenEurope 2 redefined its core target audi-ence to 25-34 year olds about a year ago.Consequently, the bulk of the oldies arenow drawn from the 1982-91 period.
"We have completely dropped songsfrom the '60s and now play very few fromthe '70s," he says. "Our oldies are thesongs that today's 25-34 year -olds werelistening to when they were 18-25."
Du Roy reports that the policy has hadsome drastic effects on artists such as theBeatles, who were previously at the heartof the station's programming. "Before, weregularly used to play two Beatles songsin a row. Now, only half -a -dozen Beatlessongs test well amongst our target demo-graphic, such as Come Together, Help,Yesterday and Penny Lane. The new gen-eration is no longer aware of the Beatlesrepertoire."

M & M M U ARTISTS IN PROGRESS
Neurotic Outsiders Keep Their Coolby Chris Marlowe
LONDON - If anyone was to puttogether a list of influential rockbands it would have to includeDuran Duran, Guns N' Roses andthe Sex Pistols. Neurotic Out-siders take this thought one stepfurther, however. The new quar-tet actually includes membersfrom each of those seminal acts.Duff McKagan, Matt Sorum,John Taylor and Steve Jones willrelease their selftitled debutalbum on Maverick/ Warner.
Despite this remarkable his-tory, Warner Music InternationalVP artist development Anne -Marie Nicol shies away fromany attempts to call it a super-group. "I personally see it as justa great band," she says. "But thatis a problem we had in trying tothink of how to present them. It'snot like you've got a new youngband and everyone that listens tothem starts from scratch as faras their opinions are concerned.The Neurotic Outsiders comewith all this personal andmusical baggage."
It seems as if name-dropping themusicians' other band associationswould at least open doors, but in Nicol'sexperience the exact opposite is true.She found that many people preferredto keep their preconceptions intactrather than actually listen. "I thinkthat's being very patronising and
unfair," she says. "And again, that'sanother reason I don't want to go downthe supergroup route. They're goodenough to stand on their own and theydon't need hyping."
She admits that she briefly shared atendency towards prejudice until per-suaded otherwise by the band's A&R
manager Guy Oseary, the24 -year -old who alsosigned Alanis Morissette.Oseary had himself beenconvinced after seeing theband perform, so Nicoldecided the best way tolaunch the project inEurope was to exposemanagers to their liveshow before servicing anyproduct. Label people fromall over Europe were flownin to see for themselves atthe one-off London gig.
The band themselvesare in accordance withWarner's approach. Theyall deny that NeuroticOutsiders is any kind of asupergroup, but JohnTaylor acknowledges, "No-body can escape what weare. I think everybody rec-ognises that between uswe've contributed a lot tothis industry over the last15 years." Duff McKaganadds, "If you really thinkabout it, it's kind ofoverwhelming what the
three different bands have done. So wenever think in those terms. But I thinkwe're getting deserved respect. And it'svery cool coming to a fresh recordcompany and being taken seriously."
Nicol is now addressing how tospread the word throughout Europe.She plans on utilising the Neurotic
Outsiders' natural affinity with therock press first, but will then gomainstream. "I don't think it's evergoing to be trendy, but I definitelythink there are some tracks on thealbum that can go through into anolder demographic," she says. The focuswill initially be based around theband's autumn tour to maximise theirproven strength as a live act.
Radio is a bit more problematic."Rock radio is almost non-existent inEurope," thinks Nicol. "However there'salways hope that there's going to be aDJ out there that's looking for some-thing a little bit more eclectic ratherthan just playing dance." She pointsout that the album was well producedby Talking Heads' Jerry Harrison andsays, "I think it would be nice if DJslistened to the whole album and pickedtheir own favourite, their own level."The first single is Jerk, in a versionrevised for radio, but Nicol alsosuggests that the positive content of theballads A Better Way or Story Of MyLife would work well.
The band themselves are less sure.Taylor hesitantly allows, "I don't thinkthe success of this record is going to beabout radio in Europe." They believeEuropean radio is possibly too limitedto pop and dance, but even withEurope's lack of rock radio, it would berisky to ignore the Neurotic Outsiders.The combination of a hard-working,proven band and a supportive recordlabel makes a formidable force.
Nashville Tales Of Orphan Girls And Bettie Pageby Thessa Mooij
AMSTERDAM - They got hundreds ofstern -looking Frank Black fansdancing, they played a Berlin crowd of750 during the Germany -Italy soccermatch and people were turned away attheir sold out show at the LondonBorderline. BR5-49 don't even have aproper album out, but years of playingfor tips in a Nashville bar created quitea buzz around this quintet. Their footstomping, barn storming brand oftwangabilly is captured by Live FromRobert's (Arista). A studio album and avisit to Europe is expected inSeptember.
Although BR5-49 named themselvesafter a '50s tv show, dress in vintagewestern wear and use traditional
instruments, the power of theirpounding drums and slap -bass rhythmsection is more akin to rock & roll.Their lyrics about Bettie Page, pillguzzling truckers and punk girls evokethe psychobilly zaniness of cult bandslike the Cramps and Southern CultureOn The Skids.
In a town ruled by conservatism,this might seem a little radical, butBR5-49 were courted by nine labelsbefore opting for Arista, who offeredthem complete artistic control. AristaNashville director of internationalartist development Ramona Simmonsaccompanied the quintet on their firstEuropean trip. "In the early '90s, peoplelike Lee Roy Parnell and Radney Fosterupdated country music, but BR5-49 areinspired by really old styles. In a year,
they will do more for countrythan the Nashville industry."
However, both the bandand Arista are looking beyondthe Nashville skyline. 'We'renot limiting our audiences,"says Simmons. "Theirmanager Barry Coburn hasan international vision. Theyfeel strongly about building abase in Europe." The releaseof their debut studio albumThe Number To Call Is BR5-49 is scheduled for September17.
AMSTERDAM - Life in the Appalachianshas never been easy, but the Depressionera hit the Irish-Anglo mountaindwellers especially hard. Like the bluesin the deep South, music was a greatsource of relief for the people.Californian singer -songwriter GillianWelch (28) fell in love with the grimlyrics and heartbreaking harmonies.Her material attracted EmmylouHarris, who covered Orphan Girl on herlatest Wrecking Ball album, T. BoneBurnett who produced Welch's debutalbum Revival (Almo Sounds) andrenowned musicians such as JamesBurton and Jim Keltner are featured onthe album.
Burnett's sparse production enhancesthe drama of the compositions, makingit transcend time, borders and genres.Much of the resulting sound was createdin collaboration with Welch. On theAlmo Sounds Internet site, shecomments on the process. "Early in therecording process T -Bone suggested weget this old recording gear that HankWilliams Sr. used to record on. Wewanted the record to sound real andtough. With just two guitars and vocals,people have a tendency to want to makethem sound lush and huge."
Although bluegrass helped shapecountry, Welch's appeal reaches beyondthe genre's core market, according toAlmo Sounds international director of
marketing Chris Bren. "We think ofRevival as a Robert Johnson album:everyone should have one at home. Wedon't want to limit it to country. It's amusic lover's record, which doesn't fallinto a specific category. A band likeGarbage plays it on their tour bus.Radio is not our chief marketing tool.It's infectious music, we're partlycounting on a lot of word-of-mouth andguerilla tactics." Recently, Gillian Welchsuccumbed to the not -so guerilla tacticof opening up for Mark Knopfler inLondon and playing a successfulshowcase, more of which will follow inEurope in the late fall.

M & M M U NEW RELEASES
SinglesLADAE!
Party 2 Nite - MotownPRODUCER: Al B. SureBy combining heavenly harmonies,utterly groovy dance beats, Ladae!could become the Jackson family of the'90s. Containing elements from ShowMe The Way To Go, this single is adeadringer for EHR. The fast tempoand high groove level are absolutelyirresistable. The rap remixes featuringGrand Puba and Chubb Rock show theguys have street cred too. Europe willlove Ladae! All it takes is one spin.
ehr/d
ARPMelanie - Blue Flame ace/rPRODUCERS: Thomas Angelkorte, ArpA Stuttgart singer/songwriter, Arp com-bines the best of '60s bubblegum harmo-nies a la the Turtles with a solid rocksound, which climaxes at the end. Therhythm is cheerful and infectious.
TASMIN ARCHERSweet Little Truth - EMIPRODUCER: Mitchell FroomA very hard to pin down, but definitelyadult oriented track. The chorus hassome beautiful harmonies with its lushstrings, hinting slightly at the Beatles,whereas the melodies and lead guitar inthe verses are just wandering around.
ace
ASHOh Yeah - Infectious r/a/ehrPRODUCERS: Owen Morris, AshA great anthem with singalong hooks anda big orchestral backup. The verses arepleasant enough, but the trio can't controltheir guitars in the end. Inspired by theoverwhelming Seattle sound, these guysthrow themselves into the arms of distor-tion with wild abandon, only to be calledback by the string section. Extra trackDoes Your Mother Know is hilarious.
THE AURATONESSpooky's Day Off- Red Bullet ehr/acePRODUCERS: B. Lucas, T. van ZanenLots of instrumental fun from the DutchAuratones. A cross between Stax soul(Booker T. and the MG's!) and the slight-est hint of easy listening tongue-in-cheek.This mid -tempo funky number will getanyone grooving. A cheesy organ domi-nates on the extra track Sneaky, enhanc-ing its easy tune level.
BOYZ-R-USSingin' In My Mind - Marlboro Music/Edel ehr/dPRODUCER: M. Menck, D. Bohn
Somebody forgot to tell these guys that
Eurodance is not happening anymore.The typical 2 Unlimited keyboards are alittle outdated, but the infectious beatsand soulful vocals of Leland and Kashsave the day.
CAMILLEA Deeper Shade Of Love -Dancepool/Sony ehr/dPRODUCER: Boon Tang BoysCanadian dance with a distinct soulflavour. The beat is not straightforward,but syncopated and Camille sounds likeshe could handle the best of R&B singers.The mid -song break features a contagiouskeyboard melody. Highly danceable andsuper groovy.
C100B (SAY CUBE!)Sabotage - Food For Thought/EDM d/ehrPRODUCERS: H. Oosterwolde, P.Vriends
A weird and wonderful mix of ragga,rap, jungle and assorted samples, like aCaribbean equivalent of the Prodigy'sFirestarter. But this is definitely poppier,thanks to the accessible melodies andinfectious beats. Now that drum 'n' bassis being used left and right, it's refresh-ing to hear someone use it in an originalway.
JODECIGet On Up - MCA ehr/dPRODUCER: Mr. DalvinThis is the kind of funky R&B EHR haslearned to love. The heavy beats and oldschool grooves play well on radio, whilethe soulful harmonies do the rest. Thelong, minimal remixes are more suitablefor clubs.
OMCHow Bizarre - Huh!/Polydor ehr/acePRODUCER: Alan JanssonPolynesian pop with a twist. Pauly Fue-mana has a gravelly, deep voice and amajor rap attitude. The Spanish guitar,trumpet and the sweet female back-ground vocals create a radiofriendlymood. This single from the forthcomingalbum Time Is Money smashed NewZealand and Austrialian sales figures;OMC's quirky catchiness should kick upsome dust in Europe too.
ORPHIC SOOPGroove Dictation - Almo Soundsr/a/ehrPRODUCER: Simon EfeneyThere's nothing wrong with retro, aslong as it has the right spirit and soul.This new UK band lashes out with aferocity that would have Jimi Hendrixraise at least one eyebrow. Remembergrebo? Well this is even dirtier, grittierand more exciting, thanks to the abun-dant wah wah pedals, organ and relent-less drumming Orphic Soop slow downon the grungy ballad Denied, whichcould also be played on EHR.
THE PRESIDENTS OF THE USADune Buggy- Columbia ehr/r/a
PRODUCERS: D. Greenspoon, C. Irving
Every single track by this US triosounds like an instant classic and thisone is no exception. It features thePresidents' trademark dominant bassline, but the humorous, non-sensicallyrics and perky melodies steal theshow.
AlbumsBABY FOXA Normal Family- The All Blacks/Roadrunnerd/a/ehrPRODUCERS: Baby FoxThis UK trio has found the perfect recipefor ultra laidback ambient. The main in-gredient is a mellow reggae beat, on top ofwhich Christine's cristal clear vocals fitperfectly. The mid tempo In Your Dreamshas a poppy EHR feel with cheerful melo-dies, interrupted by a mesmerising dub.Ladybird starts out as high qualitydream house, but adopts a reggae beatafter the intro. The rest of the material ismore experimental, with samples andunusual instruments: Rain almostsounds like a film score. Baby Fox form arare breed, combining infectious grooveswith adventurousness, sounding bothaccessible and avant-garde at the sametime.
THE BLACK CROWESThree Snakes And One Charm- American/BMG r/a/ehrPRODUCERS: J. J. Puig, The Black CrowesAfter nearly breaking up, the Crowesrecorded this album in a big Atlantamansion. The reconciliation has notbrought any surprises. By tamperingwith Americana (gospel, bluegrass), theyare walking a path already cleared by theBand. Some tracks (Bring On, Bring On,One Mirror Too Many, How Much ForYour Wings?) echo that typical mid '70spretentious complexity. The first singleGood Friday is a pleasant mid -temporock track, featuring gospel vocals and abanjo. The up -tempo Blackberry offersexciting, powerful souVrock, sounding likeOtis Redding in overdrive.
IMPERIAL TEENSeasick - Slash/London r/a/ehr
PRODUCERS: S. McDonald, Imperial TeenThe drummer from Sister Double Happi-ness and the keyboard player from FaithNo More got together to form a new band,and an album full of simple, innocentrock is the result. More energetic thanMazzy Star, but definitely in the samerepetitive mode, Imperial Teen is as freshas the happy dolphin pictured on theirCD booklet. One of the hottest bands inCalifornia (and they don't even play ska!),Imperial Teen churn out poppy melodiesand grungy guitars like mad. Pig Latinwith its riff borrowed from La Bamba andthe vocals borrowed from Nirvana is agreat radio track. So is Balloon, whichstarts out with girlish harmonies, buterupts into the type guitar explosionwhich made Bush a big deal in the US.They're real, they're fun: check them out.
LINDA PERRYIn Flight- Rockstar/Interscope/MCA r/a/ehr/acePRODUCER: Bill BotrellAlthough the first single Fill Me Upevokes the glory days of the 4 NonBlondes, this album has a lot more tooffer. The Blondes' rock format must havebeen restricting her: she is at her bestwhen moving towards a folky, sometimespsychedelic, sound. You can tell the girllives in San Francisco. One of the besttracks is the slow, winding Knock MeOut, in which Perry lets her hair down
vocally, aided by the otherwise reclusiveGrace Slick, who seems to be in greatshape. Too Deep and Uninvited are soul-ful, emotional ballads, which could dowell at EHR and ACE.
PLASTICOPlastico - MNW ehr/a/r
PRODUCERS: PlasticoThis new Swedish trio specialise in highlyinfectious techno pop with the occasionalglamrock overtones and definitelytongue-in-cheek. Whatever you call it, itwill sound good on the air. The up -tempoMacho Mate is a pulsating anthem withsleazy guitars, Penny's distorted vocalsand a great singalong chorus. Anothertypical glamrock track is Breakfast InNew York. Plastico sound more refreshingwhen leaning towards rapid techno beats:Who Is My Friend and People (which hasa wacky Shadows guitar riff).
GERALDINA TROVATOHo Trovato Gerardina - Insieme/Sugar ehr/ace/r
PRODUCER: Mauro MalavasiTrovato's third album is full of life, bub-bling with melodies and hooks, but neversuperficial. Much of her compositions aredriven by acoustic guitars, rather thanfluffy melodies. Trovato's husky voice andminor chord changes offer plenty of grit.The obvious radio candidate is the up-beat Piccoli Giet Grandi with its reggaebackbeat, steel drums and simple key-boards; the dance remix is perfect forEHR. The up -tempo Amori, Amori hasseveral Spanish guitars and a perkyaccordion propelling the song forwardwhile Trovato's playful vocals almost leadtheir own life. Una Storia Gal Finita andGoodbye are tasteful ACE ballads.
TOURE KUNDA
Mouslai - WEA w/acePRODUCERS: Toure KundaLooking for an alternative to createthat summer feeling on air? Senegalesepop might be your answer. VeteransToure Kunda have spent the last twodecades blending and perfecting theirmix of West African traditions andwestern pop. They are big on melodiesand atmospheric ballads, which meanspercussion is often taking a back seat.Sometimes they take a detour, such asthe reggae flavoured Roupouli. Theiruse of acoustic guitars (modelled onMali griots) and a horn section givessome of their tracks a Latin Americanfeel, as in the first single Coladera.Emitay is more up -tempo, again with areggae bass and a happy horn section.

Latin Sashays Into EuropeLatin music's magical and mysterious brew ofAfrican rhythms and European melodic formsmirrors the complex mix of new world cultures fromwhich its medley of styles grew. Cumbia, salsa,soca, merengue, zouk, compas, bossa-nova, rumba,ska-it boasts infinite variety but is instantlyrecognizable. The old world is (re)discovering itsinfectiously sensual beat as Terry Berne reports.
RESENTER of BRTN 1/Brussels "Club Tropical"Zjakki Willems says,"Latin music was thefirst world music to
attract a wide popular audience." Herefers to the tango craze which firstswept France and then the rest ofEurope in the years following the firstWorld War. Other latin dance fadssoon followed, until every Europeancapital swung to the beat of latinbands featuring white -suited players,extravagantly plumed singers, and lotsof percussion.
Half a century later latin still rulesthe roost of imported sounds, from themerengue of Juan Luis Guerra tothe salsa of Celia Cruz. Summermusic festivals include more latinartists than ever, some dedicatingentire days exclusively to latin music,while festivals like Belgium'sHoogstraten Caribbean Festival(August 9-10), now in its 14th year,feature acts that span the whole rangeof regional styles, from Columbia toCuba, Martinique to the DominicanRepublic.
Through Spain's ChannelEurope's most direct link with latinculture has always been Spain, which,acts as a funnel, channelling both itsown product and Latin America's intoother parts of Europe. This is more evi-dent this summer than ever, with thephenomenal worldwide success of LosDel Rio's hit Macarena, which atpresstime holds its number 1 positionon both the Eurochart Hot 100 andBorder Breakers charts, as well asremaining well ensconced in the EHRtop ten.
The song, inspired by a beautifulVenezuelan dancer the duo saw whileon tour, was originally released in 1993on the album A Mi Me Gusta by Span-ish indie Serdisco, and sold some half amillion copies before BMG bought thelabel a year later. As internationalexport manager Laly Garciaexplained, the multinational beganworking the record in the US marketand South America where it alsobecame a hit in various territories,most importantly Mexico. The originalwas already enjoying renown in the USmarket when a remix by the BaysideBoys entered the charts in the fall of1995, eventually reaching number 5.This spring the remix version, aided byvideo airplay on both MTV and Viva,
exploded across Europe. And summerhas just begun! The company plans asecond single, La Nina Del Panuelo(The Little Girl With A Handkerchief)for the end of summer.
Another Spanish duo, this timefemale, may also hit big in Europe thissummer with Solo Se Vive Una Vez(You Only Live Once) the danceablefirst single from Anicar Moreno'snew Sony album Esclava De 7'u Piel(Slave To Your Skin). Recorded inMiami, it reached number 55 on theEuropean Top 100. Sisters Toni andEncarna Salazar became known atthe beginning of the decade with theirinternational hit Bandido, and sincethen, through extensive touring and
Azucar Moreno (Sony)
Jon Secada (SBK)
several hit albums, have consolidatedtheir grip on the club scene with theirtorrid blend of rumba, salsa and fla-menco. In Spain, where they regularlysell platinum, their audience encom-passes a broad spectrum, while in otherEuropean territories their appeal ismainly dance based. "Remixes are animportant element of their success,"notes international export managerVictoria Rull. "Our strategy is toenter the market through clubs, gar-nering airplay on the strength of theirclub success. We're convinced that thisrecord can cross borders."
Miami, Latin's CapitalBut if Spain continues to be the princi-pal market as well as the gateway forlatin acts, the centre of gravity is slow-ly but surely shifting toward whatmany consider the new capital of LatinAmerica-Miami. The city is homeboth to latin music's major establishedinternational pop star Gloria Estefan,and to its newest sensation, Julio's sonEnrique Iglesias.
After two Grammy award -winningalbums exploring her Cuban roots, MiTierra and Abriendo Puertas, Estefan'snew CD, Destiny, while still tropicallyflavored, is a return to her more main-stream pop sensibility. Even given herstature, marketing the two Spanishlanguage albums in Europe was noteasy. Comments Epic product managerPaul McGee, "We did a lot of special-ist, very particular target marketing.We had pockets of radio support: JazzFM, dance stations, specialty pro-grammes. But it was a very word ofmouth campaign."
Iglesias is the fastest -selling hispan-ic singer ever, with some 2.5 millioncopies of his debut album on Fonovisaselling in just under seven months. Hehas just released a new version of thealbum with six songs in Italian, andthe European release on MCA is beinglaunched from Italy. (For more on Igle-sias, see last week's issue of Music &Media.)
Jon Secada is another Miami -based singer who just won his thirdGrammy for the SBK/EMI albumAmor. His European reputation isbased on the 1992 smash Just AnotherDay from his debut.
NY's Hybrid MixThe other principal US A&R centre is,of course, New York. Recently the cityhas become the focus of various latinhybrid styles, akin to New Orleansband The Iguanas or France's ManoNegra, mixing salsa, hip -hop, funk androck into a vital, multi -ethnic alterna-tive pop sound. Luaka Bop, DavidByrne's forward -looking world musiclabel is documenting the scene on suchreleases as the excellent compilationsoundtrack to the film "Blue In TheFace," which includes cuts by local actsLa Casa and Da Bush Babies, and aduet with Byrne and tejano pop starSelena (recorded just before her
Gloria Estefan (Epic)
death). Due out soon is the truly cross-cultural debut of eight -piece crew KingChanga, that adds a ska element tothe mix, with vocals in both Englishand Spanish.
New York, however, is traditionallyknown for its salsa scene, and RMM,with veteran salseros like Tito Puente,Celia Cruz and Oscar D'Leon, as wellas rising stars like India and Tony
making a serious bid atmonopolising the field with its TropicalTribute To The Beatles.
An album which attempts to strad-dle the fence between salsa and latinjazz is the acclaimed Cubanismo fromHannibal, which has sold some 25.000copies so far in the US and about athird of that in Europe, where it spentseveral month on the World MusicCharts Europe. Described by producerand Hannibal GM Joe Boyd as "Aninstrumental album of Cuban dancerhythms including a mixture of newand traditional material," the sessionswere recorded virtually live in a studioin Havana. It features such musiciansas Jesus Alemany, former trumpeterwith Cuba's renowned Sierra Maes-tra; Irekere veteran Orlando Valle;and percussionist Tata Guines. Oneproblem Boyd indicates is that, despitethe real popularity and accessibility oflatin musical styles, there is a lack ofname recognition among non -specialistlisteners, meaning that consumershave little orientation when it comes toidentifying artists or buying CDs.
European radio is paying someattention to the latin resurgence, inpart because it's becoming aware of thepotential audience in its midst. ACEUptown Radio/Copenhagen PD Flem-ming Beck declares, "I look at what'shappening in other markets beside theUK and Germany. I also look atFrance, Spain and the US." He inte-grates latin tunes, when appropriate,into the regular programming, andclaims to get a great response from lis-teners. And BRTN's Willems points tothe large latin communities in Belgiumand throughout Europe, which form anatural market.

LONDON - The entire manage-ment team at Wolverhampton'sBeacon Radio has resigned enmasse, two and a half yearsafter the station wasbought by radio giantGWR.
At the time ofGWR's purchase ofBeacon Radio in Jan-uary 1994, a deal was struckwhich would keep the existingmanagement team in place fora specified period of time. Thedeal also meant that GWRwould not become involved inthe day-to-day management ofthe station. With the end of thisagreement imminent, Beacons

top-level management (MDAlan Mullett, PD PeteWagstaff, finance directorJames Plant and non -executivechairman Alan Henn) have alldecided to resign from their
posts.GWR has
appointed 2CR/Bournemouth sta-tion director RogerBrooks as the new
managing director. SaysBrooks, "We had hoped thatsome of Beacons former man-agement would choose to staywith the GWR Group, but theyhave chosen not to do so."
GWR has brought in the ser-vices of Colin Wilsher, pro-gramme controller at GWR'sLeicester Sound FM, to lookafter programming matters atBeacon radio's two services, theEHR-formatted Beacon Radio
and the MOR/gold outletWABC.
Brooks promises that thenew management team "willnot be changing thingsovernight" and that it will lookcarefully at Beacon's strong andweak points. "We will lookbefore we act. We have two verystrong radio brands in a verycompetitive radio market, andwe will not be making any pre-sumptions about what is rightor wrong at Beacon."
Speculation is rife, however,that GWR will bring Beaconinto line with its standard FMand AM formats within thenext few months. This wouldmean WABC becoming part ofthe Classic Gold Network, andBeacon FM moving towards amore ACE -orientated formatfeaturing GWR's distinctsweepers and positioning liners.
Bland Defends Shake -Upcontinued from page 1
"If there's threatening to bedone, let it be BBC radio thatdoes it." He claimed that thenew joint television andradio structure, allied tonew technology, "willpermit economies ofscale and eliminateduplication which, quiterapidly, will allow us to spendmore money on programmes."The BBC's new director of radioMatthew Bannister said thatthe corporations services are"in rude good health," and thatthe changes would not lead to"bi-media putting televisionshows on radio. But it willlead," he continued, "to a moremanaged process throughwhich radio programmes areput on TV."
Commenting on his futurevision for BBC Radio, Bannistersaid, "Nobody wishes to seeBBC Radio atrophy, overtakenby changes in society, bychanges in technology or byinward arrogance. But neithermust we leave behind the lis-teners who are the foundationof our very existence."
Other highlights at thisyear's festival included a spot ofcrystal ball -gazing by JimmyGordon, chairman of ScottishRadio Holdings. He warned del-egates that they would be ''fool-ish" to believe that overall radioaudiences will grow in thefuture. "Indeed, a modestdecline is only to be expected,and has already started."
He also warned the commer-cial radio sector that the expan-sion in services which DAB willherald would not be confined tocommercial radio. "Don't bebeguiled by this 'alintie' imagewhich the BBC shelters behind,giving the impression of a well-
meaning but not quite up-to-date organisation that wouldn'tdo anyone any harm-even itscompetitors. Forget it."
Instead, Gordon argued thatthe BBC was "better cast as a
sultry maiden, not aboveflashing a bit of digitalthigh to convince a gov-ernment that its licenceshould be renewed and
that it should do particular-ly well out of the allocation ofdigital spectrum [at theexpense of commercial radio]."

IFPI Successcontinued from page 1
Senior label executives con-sidered it a coup that the ECpresident not only attended,but also made the presenta-tions. In addition, the AlbertHall audience included suchsenior European officials asAnita Gradin, Commissionerfor Justice, and Paul Water-schoot, the EC's director ofcopyright from its DG15 unit.Also, the commission's politi-cal cabinets were representedat the most senior level,according to IFPI director ofcommunications Catrin Hugh-es, and there were two deputyambassadors and 10 membersof the European parliament(MEP).

Threat For Montecarlocontinued from page 1
On July 15 all programmingderived from the Monaco stu-dios was terminated, and the106.8 Mhz signal from Monacowhich serves the French andItalian Rivieras fell silent. Themorning drive show and nighttime programme, whichcomes from the 105Groups' Milan studioscontinued on the ItalianFM network, with day-time programmesreplaced by non-stopmusic and an
initials RMC" said one source.There are further problems
for RMC Italy to overcome if itis to continue outside itsMonaco base. The concessionfrom the Italian governmentfor RMC Italy to transmit on anational network of FMrepeaters is for the relay of anexternally based radio station.
The one other "exter-ff,..1. nal relay" national-,g4w concession in Italy is
held by Milan based101 Network torelay the Voice ofAmerica (VOAEurope) service in
announcement saying R A 0 I 0 Italy. 101 Network'sthat "normal program- MONTE CARLO application last yearming would return in the nearfuture." Another RMC Italysource said that if the debtproblem could not be resolvedalternatives would be lookedinto, including the possibilityof changing the networks call -sign and moving its base. TheRadio Montecarlo trademarkis owned by the French RMCGroup and not Hazan's 105Group. "Although we could notuse the Radio Montecarloname, we could still use the
to have this concession trans-ferred into a 'normal' nationalconcession to broadcast theirMilan -based Rock FM servicethroughout Italy, replacingVOA, was turned down.

The evening began with acocktail reception, followed bydinner. The award ceremonies,which were not open to thepublic, kicked off with aspeech from IFPI chairmanDavid Fine, who noted thatthe European music industryprospered "without any [gov-ernment] subsidies or statesupport" and employed300.000 people, more than theEuropean steel industry.
Santer spoke about theEuropean Commissions rela-tionship with the music indus-try, stressing the body's deter-mination to continue to dealeffectively with intellectualproperty issues. "The Euro-pean Community has," he stat-ed, "an impressive record inthe harmonisation of copyright
and related rights."Later, Santer alluded
to the industry's effortsto have Valued AddedTax on recordingsreduced to the samelevel as books. "I am wellaware of your preoccupa-tions," he said, "I wouldjust like to remind youthat unanimity is therule in fiscality. Ofcourse, if all the memberstates agree on a rate,why should the Commis-sion oppose it?" He con-
us continueto work together toensure the success thatthis evening's presenta-tion clearly demon-strates."
A total of 96 albumswere certified last monthas million -sellers underthe Platinum Europe
programme. A 97th, The Scoreby The Fugees was recognisedon the night of the Albert Hallshow. The artists who receivedtheir accolades in person fromSanter were France's PatriciaKaas; Sweden's Ace of Base,represented by the group'sMarie Fredericksson; Australi-a's INXS, represented byband -member Andy Farris;Germany's PUR (the entiregroup was present) and Mar-ius Mueller Westernhagen;Holland's Andre Rieu; andBritain's Robson & Jerome,represented by Robson Green.
At the evening's conclusion,a special award was presentedby Santer to Nana Mouskouri,the Greek singer (best knownfor her 1961 hit, The WhiteRose Of Athens, who has sincebecome an MEP), "Europe is agreat musical culture," shesaid, "and we [in differentcountries] deserve to knoweach other."
Executive producer for theevent was Lisa Anderson, whoserves in a similar capacity forthe Brit Awards in the UKThe evening's MC was VH-1VJ Pip Dann.

The EHR "chartbound" chart lists the total number of EHR reporting stations playing newer songs that do not yet have enough airplay points to rank among the EHR Top 40. The second number
represents how many stations reported it to M&M for the first time. Songs which have received no new airplay for two consecutive weeks will bedeleted from this chart, but may reappear with new
airplay. In the case of a tie, songs are listed by new adds. Asterisks indicate new entries in Chartbound.
Airplay ActionEHR Top 40 commentary by Pieter Kops
It doesn't hap-pen very oftenthat the high-est entry inthe EHR Top40 is a re-entry. Thisweek, how-ever, that's thecase. CocoJamboo, thefifth single by
German Eurodance trio Mr. President, has comeback as high as number 33-two weeks after it felloff the chart. The summery single, the WEA act'sfirst hit on European Hit Radio, had been chartingfor three weeks, then with a peak at number 35.
Its current return to the format's ranks is due tosignificant new playlist additions in Italy, Holland,Belgium and Russia, adding up to a total roster of 27stations. This encompasses 14 countries in total, ofwhich Italy, Finland, Hungary and the GSAterritories stand out as the most supportive. In thisweek's Border Breakers chart, the track has evenentered the top 10 at number 8, pushed ahead by anall -format, 21 -station roster outside GSA.
Coco Jamboo is the lead-off single from Mr.President's second album We See The Same Sun,which also includes a cover version of Tina Charles'1976 UK number 1 hit I Love To Love (But My BabyLoves To Dance). The new album-the follow-up to1994's Up'n Away-is currently number 25 in theEuropean Top 100, after a peak at number 24. As forthe single, it's currently number 6 in the EurochartHot 100, having already peaked at number 4. Areview of Mr. President's new material appeared inour July 6 issue.
The only new entry in this week's EHR list, rightat the bottom of the chart, is Pato Banton's coverversion of Groovin', the 1967 US number 1 hit(number 8 in the UK) by New York's blue-eyed soul/pop quartet The Young Rascals. If one includesBanton's collaborations with Sting -1995's ThisCowboy Song (EHR peak: number 2) and this year'sPolice cover Spirits In The Material World (36)-thenew entry marks the fifth EHR hit for the reggaeartist, who has now switched to I.R.S. His othersuccesses on the format were the 1994 cover versionof the Equals' 1968 UK number 1 hit Baby, ComeBack (EHR peak: number 4) and 1995's Bubbling Hot(32).
Groovin' is the taster for Banton's new album StayPositive, due for release on August 5. As yet, the newsingle is playlisted by 28 EHR stations in sixcountries. It has been embraced particularly byPolish, Dutch and UK stations, but the first signs ofa good radio following have also emerged in Germanyand Italy. A review of the single appeared in our July20 issue.

On The RoadBorder Breakers commentary by Pieter Kops
It's the new Culture Beat record that grabs thehighest new entry in this week's BorderBreakers. Take Me Away is the third single tohave been taken from Inside Out, the Germansynthi-pop/Eurodance outfit's 1995 album.Coming in at number 17 with an all -format, 15 -station roster by its side, it crosses over to sixcountries outside GSA. Had the act's region ofsigning not been excluded from the calculations(as the methodology of this chart demands), itsroster would have measured 25 stations/eightcountries, due to considerable airplay inGermany and Switzerland. What counts, how-ever, is the airplay that has emerged across theborder-in this case particularly in Holland,Belgium and Denmark. In each of these coun-tries, four reporters have put the track on rota-tion. This radio support is predominantly ofEHR signature, but a few Dance- and ACE -
formatted stations have also offered a playlistposition.
The Dance Pool/Sony flagship act has been aregular guest in the Border Breakers listingsever since the chart's inception in October 1993and Take Me Away marks the seventh time -1993's Got To Get It even obtained number 1status for four consecutive weeks. Here is a com-plete, chronological list of Culture Beat's BorderBreaker hits, followed by peak position andweek and year of chart entrance:
Mr. Vain 2 44/93 *Got To Get It 1 44/93 *Anything 4 2/94World In Your Hands 13 14/94Inside Out 4 44/95Crying In The Rain 14 14/96Take Me Away 17 ** 30/96*= week of the chart's launch, **= still charting
The second -highest new entry in this week'schart, right behind Culture Beat, belongs toFrench singer Mylene Farmer. Comme JAiMal, the follow-up to California and the thirdsingle from her fourth studio albumAnamorphosee, is a monumental lament thathas the word "hit" written all over it. Despite itsFrench lyrics, no less than 23 programmers out-side France must have agreed-at least that iswhat the figures suggest. Farmer's crossoverroster is spread out over five countries, Polandbeing the undisputed leader. In that country,her new single is being embraced massively(54% national penetration), while Sweden,Denmark, Slovakia and Switzerland have tuned
in on a more mod-est scale. As forSwitzerland, it isinteresting to notethat, contrary toexpectations, thesupport theredoes not onlycome from franco-phone stations.
The charts on this page track the border -crossing movement ofproduct. The Border Breakers chart ranks the 25 most successfulContinental European records making airplay impact outside theircountry of signing (airplay achieved in the original country isexcluded from the calculations).
The second chart, Channel Crossovers, registers the airplaypenetration of UK -signed artists in mainland Europe, while thethird Top 25, the Atlantic Crossover chart, ranks the most suc-cessful Non -European artists according to airplay impact inEurope.
All three charts are non -format specific. "Country Of Signing"is not necessarily an indication of where the artist comes frombut, more significantly, where he/she is signed. An increasingnumber of national artists are signed to "foreign" labels and M&Maims to acknowledge the crossover impact of such deals.

,..0.00111.111111
y thanks and congratulations first to the artists, the winners of this evening.and to the organisers, the phonographic industry. The creative talent and thecreative investment of both have formed the basis c4/what is now one of the most
thriving sectors of business in Europe and in the wort the music industry.The development of the music Anarket clearly is a success story. And the key to this suc-
cess lies in an adequate protection of intellectual property rights, together with open andaccessible markets. The European Commission contributes to both objectives. It does so byfocusing on three principle objectives:
- We seek to achieve a single market for copyright and related rights and to maintain condi-tions of undistorted competition;
- We fight to combat piracy, both in the community and in third countries;- And we ensure and further develop a high level of protection of copyright and neigh-bouring right holders, such as the phonogram industry and performing artists.
The Community has an impressive record in the harmonisation of copyright and relatedrights. Five directives have been adopted over the past five years. The Commission intendsto pay close attention to the effective transposition of the texts. These directives already pro-vide a robust legal framework for the protection of works, phonograms, etc., distributed inthe single market. Almost all of them are important for the phonogram industry. They estab-lish a high level of protection of phonogram producers by granting exclusive rights of repro-duction, distribution, or rental of phonograms over a term of protection of 50 years. It is cer-tainly thanks to this legal framework that the music industry is doing so well in Europe.
At the international level, the Commission is, and always has been, active in establishingsound protection for intellectual property. The implementation of the Trips Agreement con-cluded in the Uruguay Round of GATT, and now administered by the World Trade Organisa-tion, is a priority for the Commission. Bilateral negotiations are continuing with third coun-tries to fight piracy worldwide.
Finally, we are determined to find an agreement within the World Intellectual PropertyOrganisation on three new international treaties. At the Diplomatic Conference in December,the Commission and the European Community will play an active-perhaps decisive-role inthese negotiations which are of such importance for the music industry and all creators.
These WIPO negotiations already tackle an issue which is both a challenge and an opportu-nity for intellectual property: the development of the information society. The vast invest-ment in new products and on-line services, offering enormous employment potential, willonly be made if an adequate protection of their content is granted. In the European Commu-nity, this can only take place in a functioning single market. This may imply the need foradjustments and complements to the existing legal framework.
In July 1995, the Commission launched a consultation process with its green paper on"copyright and related rights in the information society". IFPI has actively contributed to thishighly successful process. The Commission received enormous feedback through more than350 written submissions and comments. The consultation procedure has now been conclud-ed in the framework of a conference organised by the Commission in Florence.
Where do we go from here?The Commission envisages publishing, within the next few months, a communication
which will explain its policy. The necessary legislative proposals will follow as soon as possi-ble. In the fiscal field, I am well aware of your preoccupations. I would just like to remindyou that unanimity is the rule in fiscality. Of course, if all the Member States agree on a rate,why should the Commission oppose it! These then are the activities -we in the Commissionhave undertaken to promote what is our major asset: creativity and culture. Let us continueto work together to ensure the success that this evening's presentation clearly demonstrates.
Text of the speech given by European Commission president Jacques Santer during theEuropean Platinum Europe Award presentation on July 11 1996
IFPI, the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry, brings togetherover 1.200 record producers from around the world, providing them with a mouth-piece to raise issues of mutual concern. Since IFPI was founded over 60 years ago, its
role has become more important than ever in fighting to protect the interests of the record-ing industry. National groups representing the local record companies are officially recog-nised by IFPI in 41 countries, and the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA)and Federation Latinoamericana de Productores de Fonogramas y Videogramas (FLAPF)are also affiliated to IFPI. It performs many functions invaluable to the music industry.
IFPI promotes, defends and anticipates not only the introduction of copyright and otherintellectual property legislation but also the enforcement of such laws. This work naturallyinvolves it in a wide range of anti -piracy and technological development activities. The organi-sation also collects, collates and distributes a vast quantity of statistical and other informationthat constitutes the backbone of the industry.
In Europe, IFPI's Brussels office focuses on EU issues. It also has a London office, whichserves as IFPI's headquarters, secretariat and main research centre. Regional offices can alsobe found in Warsaw and Moscow along with the many affiliated national professional bodies.
IFPI's European Executive Committee last year set up a committee chaired by Sony MusicEntertainment Europe president Paul Russell to draw up plans for the awards, now called Plat-inum Europe, to reflect sales of one million units throughout the European region.
Platinum Europe is a historic landmark for the European record industry, and reflects thespectacular growth of the European music market and its unique mix of cultures, language

"Platinum Europe is atribute to the free -flowing,cross -border culturaldiversity of today's musicmarket."IFPI chairmanDavid Fine
"What we're actuallytrying to do is make astatement for our industryand to make a statementon behalf of our industryto the politicians."Sony Music EntertainmentEurope presidentPaul Russell
continued from page 3and proliferation of media, creating an extraordinary diversity and richness of musical talent.Europe is now the biggest music market in the world, accounting for a third ofand is worth US$13.4 billion. More significantly, it has double$1,40- years,and in that time the industry has had a huge impact, an ural and on an economiclevel. The six major record co s---BMG, EMI, MCA, PolyGram, Sony Music and WarnerMusic-continue their respective policies, begun in the last decade, of opening local compa-nies inanotlff increasing number of countries. Recent examples include, among others, Bul-garia, the Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland and Russia. European repertoire has surged prolif-ically across the world in recent years and now accounts for some 60% of all music sold inEurope.
IFPI's Platinum Europe therefore marks not just the milestone of the sales growth whichhas taken place, but the unbelievable social, political and cultural changes that have takenplace in the region over the last 10 years. Europe's history, mix of countries, cultures and lan-guage, media infrastructure and readiness to embrace new technologies makes the regionunique and totally distinctive.
Thus, Platinum Europe celebrates the sales success not just of "local" European artists, but awide range of international stars whose music is, in turn, embraced by a million Europeansand more.
Only a few recording artists sell over a million albums in their entire career. WhenIFPI collated its regional figures, however, it discovered that over 90 albums releasedafter January 1 1994 had sold that amount in Europe. As IFPI chairman David Fine
says emphatically, "That's pretty significant by any standards.""We are concerned that the importance of the music industry in Europe is not fully recog-
nised," Fine says. "One always hears about the importance of the American recording industry.Yet we have so many artists, European and international, who do exceptionally well in Europe."Europe taken as a whole comprises a third of the world market, he points out. "Platinum Europeis a tribute to the free -flowing, cross -border cultural diversity of today's music market. The list of97 albums that have achieved Platinum Europe represent the European music scene-diversified,culturally vibrant and growing.
Whereas many industries are looking for financial help when they approach Brussels, themusic industry is seeking adequate legal protection, and enforcement against piracy, to safeguardits massive investment in Europe. IFPI's European Executive Committee has been highlightingthese requirements to the European Commission for some time now. Fine says, 'We don't needhandouts, whether it be tax rebates or seed money for development." The six major record com-panies all have a very strong presence in Europe, and all have large numbers of employees, out-side suppliers and factories within the region. Apart from the economic benefits the industrybrings to Europe, it's equally important to consider that the music industry is providing a culturalproduct. Fine points out, 'Whether you're talking about a classical record or pop music, it is a cre-ation of the mind and it contributes to the cultural richness of Europe."
One of IFPI's ongoing battles is to prevent the unscrupulous from exploiting the successes ofthe industry. This is where the European Commission could be of practical help. 'We have somevery weak points in Europe," Fine observes. He pinpoints Bulgaria and Russia, then adds, "Italy hasalso been a piracy black spot within the European Union, but we're now getting increasing sup-port from the Italian government, for example. But it's taken a long time and it's disappointingthat we have had to suffer rampant piracy in a developed society." He hopes that attracting theattention of politicians via the Platinum Europe Awards will help put pressure on problem coun-tries to enforce intellectual property laws already in existence.
Fine thinks that the European Commission is coming closer to accepting the significance of themusic industry and to comprehending the issues which concern it. President Jacques Santer's par-ticipation in the Platinum Europe Awards bolsters Fine's belief in a Europe which recognises themusic industry as the economic and cultural force it undoubtedly is.
An artist has to sell one million albums to earn a Platinum Europe Award, an impres-sive and far from random figure. Sony Music Entertainment Europe president PaulRussell, chairman of the IFPI communications committee which has overseen the instil.
gation of the Platinum Europe Awards explains, "It's exactly the same as the US platinumaward, to highlight the fact that the two markets are of similar size. This is to demonstrate toourselves, the artists and the people who work in the European industry that a platinumaward in Europe is exactly the same reference point as a platinum award in the US"
He makes an interesting distinction with his second objective. "It's also to give some of theinternational artists, particularly the US artists, the same reference point," Russell continues. Hisexperience indicates that the various sales figures set by each separate country can make it diffi-cult for many artists to get a coherent overview of their European status. "Platinum means differ-ent things in different places, which of course it should because the markets are of different sizes,"he says. "One overall European Platinum Award set at parity with the US award simplifies mat-ters."
Sony Music Entertainment Europe began issuing an internal platinum sales award at its 1994conference for these very reasons. Russell is obviously pleased that IFPI is now endorsing anindustry -wide award but is quick to clarify, 'We didn't wander in there, bang the table and say,'We have a platinum award, therefore the industry has to have a platinum award.' There was somediscussion. But I think it's fair to say we were quite motivational in that discussion." BMG, EMIMusic, MCA, PolyGram, Sony and Warner Music International each made a special one-off finan-

continued from page 7cial contribution to IFPI so that the Platinum Europe Awards could become a reality.
One million may seem like a daunting number of albums to sell: Russell points out however,'There were a lot of qualifiers. So it's a big number but it's obviously not unreachable. Any recordcompany which is an IFPI membeelfid there are over 1.200 members globally, is eligible tomake an application for a Platinum Europe Award. All sales figures are verified against indepen-dent information which is regularly provided by each country's IFPI body before the Award isgranted."
The next decision the steering committee faced was how to present the Awards. "For obviousreasons we decided to do it in Brussels," Russell says. We're a very important industry-and wewant our marketshare of the politician's time and attention" This was the third, and possibly mostimportant purpose behind the entire project. The major labels had been lobbying the'EC for sometime in order to establish and enhance the industry's profile with the European institutions. 'Thepoliticians in Brussels can have a huge effect on the European industry," Russell says. 'With issuesof copyright, piracy and new digital forms of distribution, they're going to play a very importantrole in our future. So we thought it was very important that they take notice of us." These effortsare paying off, as evidenced by the award presentation by European Commission presidentJacques Santer. "He immediately said yes," Russell recalls "So we've obviously got their attention."
Lisa Anderson was quickly brought in as executive producer. With her experience in the samecapacity for the Brit Awards and other prestigious events, the awards presentation could take onwhatever character the steering committee chose. Russell explains that they deliberately opted tokeep the evening a sophisticated industry dinner. "Our objective here is not really to influence thepublic," he says. 'We hope there will be some knock -on effect, but what we're actually trying todo is make a statement for our industry and to make a statement on behalf of our industry to thepoliticians."
Now IFPI must determine whether or not the event should become an annual affair. Rus-sell remarks, "Personally I would like to see it continue, but that obviously is not my exclusivedecision. I think if everybody comes away with a nice, warm feeling, then there's no reasonwhy we wouldn't continue." By everyone Russell means IFPI, the record companies, themedia, the politicians and the artists themselves, all of whom must have their opinion consid-ered. Meanwhile the groundwork and lobbying will continue behind the scenes. Followingthe presentation of the first European Platinum Awards, the hard work of promoting themusic industry steams on.
Tbe first Platinum Europe Awards ceremony is attracting an enviable array oftalent, both artistic and professional. The Award winners are artists who havetouched over one million of their fellow human beings in Europe through their cre-
ative endeavours. Everyone is aware of the serious business purposes underlying theAwards-the European music market accounting for a third of world sales of recordedmusic, worth US$13.4 billion-but the actual ceremony keeps the spotlight where itbelongs-on the stars themselves. Industry concerns along with genre, language and cul-tural differences pale next to the achievement symbolised by the 96 elegantly etched glassplaques.
As Rick Dobbis, PolyGram president continental Europe says, "One of the cool things aboutthe people that have been honoured is that the range of music is amazing. The Awards high-light the diversity of musical talent and interest in music in Europe." Since Zucchero, the Ital-ian mainstream rock singer who performs in four different languages, and Dutch Andre Rieu,with his interpretation of Strauss, share the list of PolyGram recipients, along with the Cran-berries and Metallica among others, Dobbis has no shortage of support for his comment."When I entered the record business, the US market was 60-70% of the world. And now it's inthe low 30s depending on who you ask. The perspective on the world has changed," he adds.
Sales figures like these also indicate that artists are appealing to people outside of theirown cultures. Warner Music Europe president Manfred Zumkeller recalls, "BMG's Eros Ramaz-zotti got into the number one album spot in Germany for two weeks, for example. That's fan-tastic." He also mentions Laura Pausini, who has broken through in four separate countriesand two different languages, as another of many acts which are changing ideas about what ispossible. "Barriers will not break down entirely, but people are getting more and more cos-mopolitan," he says. "And it's not restricted to food and fashion." Other European artists exem-plifying the diversity of Warner Music International's roster are, for example, Green Day andSeal.
Some winners may have come as a surprise to non -European observers. Zumkeller citesWesternhagen and PUR as megastars in their native Germany, but whose attainments are pos-sibly under -appreciated in other countries. EMI Music Europe president/CEO Rupert Perryagrees, "I think that the levels of achievement and the type of sales achieved could be a sur-prise to some people. Not necessarily people who work in Europe, but maybe people inother parts of the world." Supporting this point of view are such EMI artists as Roxette andthe Monks Of Silos, not to mention other sales breakers such as the Beatles and Blur.
Other winning names are undoubtedly more familiar worldwide. BMG Entertainment Inter-national senior VP Arnold Bahlmann has an award -winning roster that includes Eros Ramazzot-ti, Take That, M People, TLC, and Annie Lennox. He points out that honouring such globally -
known names fulfills the equally important role of emphasising the overall significance of theEuropean market. "People in the US or in the Asian Pacific areas will look at the EuropeanPlatinum Awards and they'll suddenly fmd out that this really is a force. Sometime we'll evenhave to do a quadruple Platinum Award"

The Platinum Europe Awards is one of the only music industry initiatives for which Europeas a whole is considered. However, its fragmented nature leads to some fascinating paradox-es. "I think that what you are seeing is more local successes in focal markets," Perry observes."Yet except for the Spanish and English languages, portability is somewhat restricted. But ifyou look at the kind of assumption that product out of America and out of the UK automati-cally sell around the world, that's not so much a given any more. I don't think there are anymore automatics." He believes that developments in technology have fuelled this shift by mak-ing access to what's required for the creative process more universal.
Many of the artists who have collected a Platinum Europe Award are living examples of thistransformation in what previously had been generally accepted truisms. "National repertoirehas become more important," Bahlmann explains. "However I think the openness to acceptrepertoire from other territories is growing. I mean, at the moment there's this massive hitwith Los Del Rio's Macarena. You see them dancing Macarena everywhere from my eldestdaughter's school to clubs in Sweden, and the whole thing comes out of Spain." Consumersare gaining pride in their own music but not to the exclusion of other culture's efforts.
Officially recognising some of the world's superlative talents while simultaneously expos-ing new people to their creative output would have been enough reason to initiate the Plat-inum Europe Awards. The European Executive committee that made it possible had addedimportant motives, however. Executives at every major record company are frustrated at notbeing taken seriously as an industry and yet the recording industry provides employment forover 300.000 people in Europe, directly or indirectly-from artists, record companies, radio,retailers and manufacturers, to video producers, printers, travel agents and many others. Roy-alty payments mean foreign income, too. When both direct and indirect taxes are factored in,the importance of the music industry is impossible to ignore. Perry speculates that musiccould actually be one of Europe's top five industries. All too often, however, it has been treat-ed as little more than a pleasant diversion. "We strongly believe the importance of the musicindustry has always been under -valued by the politicians and by the media," Bahlmann says."In the UK politicians have recognised that the music industry is one of the greatest and mostprofitable export businesses the UK has. But when you look at Brussels they talk about thesteel industry-which in Europe is not the thriving industry that the music industry is."
The music industry isn't merely looking for accolades, of course. "We're a very successfulindustry," Perry points out. "We don't ask for any financial handouts, unlike most other arts orindustries. What we do ask for is support in matters to do with intellectual property rights."He is annoyed that current developments regarding China focus solely on the protection ofUS rights. "Nobody seems to want to put any pressure on Italy, which is part of Europe but inpiracy matters it is like a third -world country. The European Commission's silence on thesematters is very disappointing." Bahlmann agrees, "Italy has a piracy rate of 33%, which is high-er than the Czech Republic. It is even higher than Poland today. We have to fight those chal-lenges, and you only can fight them on an international level if politicians recognise theimportance of the business. [They should be aware] that this is an important economic aswell as social and cultural factor." Zumkeller adds Bulgaria to the list of problem countries,and underscores the shared belief that unified efforts are the only way to combat the criminalelements which engage in piracy, as well as sometimes using it to launder other illicit money.
7-1 hanks to the persistent efforts of IFPI members, several members of the Euro-pean Commission are beginning to prove receptive to the industry's concerns. Itwas therefore gratifying when European Commission president Jacques Santer
agreed to participate in the European Platinum Awards ceremony. As Dobbis puts it,'Jacques Santer, as the president of the European Commission, symbolises Europe as amarket. Now obviously we're talking about the greater Europe which is beyond the Euro-pean Community per se, but Jacques Santer is a visible and respected European in thefinest sense of the word, and therefore who better to preside at this event?"
The music industry also plays an important role in the development of Europe as a whole."The music industry stands for European culture," as Bahlmann says. "Look at how many actsexpressing European culture are being exported to the US and the Asian Pacific countries." Hebelieves that this is another aspect elected officials should be able to appreciate. "We are avery strong link to the future of Europe, because we deal with the younger generations andwith artists who give constant messages to young people."
Looking forward is also essential for practical reasons. Looming on the horizon are hugequestions about new delivery systems and the related problems of rights and payment. "Whenyou talk to politicians, you very often hear people saying that the Internet or digital compres-sion or whatever is the important thing," Zumkeller says. "But that's not true! It's the content.You have to protect the content. It's just another stream of delivery, that's all. And we have toprotect what is in it." By establishing the political framework, the music industry is puttingitself in a position to address these issues while they're still manageable.
It's a considerable feat that all of those motives can come together at one formal banquet,but they do. The European Platinum Awards is a unique affiance of creativity and businessacumen, expressed with the music industry's flair for artistry, enthusiasm and optimism. "It isa dinner at which everyone in attendance is a participant," Dobbis summarises. "The musicindustry is a business, and it's a business that can defend itself beautifully for its role in soci-ety. To bring that issue, [the industry's] importance and its contributions to a wider group ofpeople, and for it to receive appropriate status, is wonderful."
