Entering The EuroZoneBetweenThe Lines

by Machgiel Bakker

There are two things in the Europeanradio business that have so far neverworked. One is operating a truly alter-native rock format, the other islaunching a genuinely pan-Europeanradio station.I am optimistic about the prospects ofalternative rock radio (one day varietywill be the name of the game inEurope), but I am still sceptical aboutthe potential of "Eurovision" styleradio. Obviously I am not referring tothe successful crossborder investmentsof French radio operators like NRJ andEurope 2: they have launched foreign

franchises (who often take on a very local character) after theyhave firmly established themselves on the domestic market.But in the case of EuroZone (see front page), it's the oppositecase: they're intending to beam out their signal to a number ofsatellite stations who, for the most part, will adopt the cen-tralised programming approach.Despite the increased communication between EC memberstates, and the rise of the homogeneous Euro-pop genre, theroad to pan-European radio is paved with stumbling blocks.First of all, there's the issue of pan-European advertising.Believe me, we struggled with it (and still do) when welaunched this publication: there are only a handful of brandswho are active in all major European markets and even if theyare, advertising concepts can hardly ever be applied across thewhole region.Problem number two: the programming concept. Unless youtake the narrowcast route (and that's precisely what EuroZonesays it doesn't want to do) and air only music which is acceptedEurope -wide (i.e Euro-dance), your audiences will turn off.Although this publication has campaigned long and hard for abroader acceptance of continental European music, the realityis still that local audiences want to be served by local program-ming content. And what about the quotas? If you start airing40% French music (as is required by French law) you can hard-ly speak of a pan-European service.And I don't want to sound too negative, but securing local ter-restrial licences is even harder to accomplish; we all know howhard it is for foreign radio operators to enter a domestic mar-ket.It's a bold move to launch a service like this, and I really wouldlike to see it succeed. But if EuroZone can't provide the num-bers (and pan-European audience research is non-existent),advertisers will not be convinced.

16 nc;Allow me to commend you and your staff for your coverage of

talk radio developments in Berlin, Amsterdam and London (Music& Media, October 19). I share your enthusiasm for American -styletalk radio and I am flattered by your recognition of my status as a"talk radio guru".

Even before I launched NewsTalk 93.6 in Berlin, I was con-vinced that Europe is prime territory for talk radio because of theexperience with the media environment I've had covering the Con-tinent since the early 1980s as a news correspondent for NBCNews.

For me it is exciting that there is such widespread talk experi-mentation on European commercial radio. Obviously each marketis different, but one of the things we've proved in the US is thattalk radio requires a long-term commitment: the real rewards startarriving in the second and third years of consistent programming

My own programming, training and consulting work at theBerlin news and talk station only confirmed for me the ripening ofthe European marketplace for talk, especially because the spon-taneity of talk clearly appeals to listeners frustrated by repetitiousmusic programmes. In addition, we've seen the value for Europeanradio of the skills we've developed over the last generation withAmerican talk radio-skills I now know without question translateacross cultural and linguistic borders.

First Italian Private RadioAd Statistics Revealedby Mark Dezzani

MILAN - Official statisticsmeasuring the advertisingmarket share of Italy's pri-vate radio stations have beenreleased for the first time bythe Italian affiliate of theinternational marketresearch company Nielsen.

Whilst figures for Italy'spublic radio service RAI havebeen regularly revealed byNielsen and other surveys,until recently Italy's privateradio operators have beennotoriously shy about reveal-ing their financial perfor-mance.

Industry observers saythat the inclusion of privateradio advertising revenue insurveys officially sanctionedby the advertising and mediabusiness follows the recentrapid growth in Italy's radioadvertising market, andindicates a maturity in thecountry's previously chaoticprivate radio sector.

Statistics for the first ninemonths of this year (Janu-ary -September '96) put totalradio advertising spend atL219.64 billion (app.US$144.7 million) dividedinto L117.33 billion for pri-vate radio and L102.3 billionfor pubcaster RAI's threeradio networks. These fig-ures give total radio adver-tising spend a 3.4% share ofthe global advertising spendin Italy.

Whilst there are no com-parisons available for privatestations, advertising on RAIRadio increased 10.3%against the same period lastyear, in line with the overall

growth in advertising inItaly for the first ninemonths of 1996.

Figures revealed by Italy'ssecond largest private radionetwork, Rome based RadioDimensione Suono (RDS),illustrate that the leadingfour private national net-works and the top regionalstations in each local marketare taking the lion's share ofadvertising, with estimatesclaiming that three out offour local stations are operat-ing at a loss.

RDS managing directorEduardo Montefusco saysthat there is still room forextensive growth beforeItaly's radio market expandsto reach market sharesachieved in other western

European markets. "We esti-mate that total revenue forRDS will reach L40 billion(app. US$26.4 million) thisyear compared with L35 bil-lion in 1995. Calculating rev-enues based on full capacityof available commercial air-time puts our potential rev-enue at L90 billion whichwill put us in the same levelas leading European radiomarkets such as France andthe UK," says Montefuscoadding, "special live eventsincluding recent open airtelevised concerts sponsoredby RDS and Renault Clio,and joint sponsorship ofsports events have surpassedexpectations in terms of pro-motion and revenues forRDS."

Over the past eight months,Lebeau has been working formultimedia company Infonie,supervising their Internetactivities. Lebeau reportsdirectly to Roadrunnerfounder Cees Wessels. Former

general manager StephanSaunier left the company tojoin pay -channel Canal+,where he is in charge of themusic programming for the TVshow "Nulle Part Ailleurs".

Lebeau says he wantsRoadrunner to be perceivedglobally not only as a heavymetal/hardcore label but as alabel for all musical styles."We want to optimise oursales and marketing effortsand do our best in a ratherdepressed market," he says."One of my main concerns is tofind ways of working withnational radio nets who obvi-ously don't need us to fill theirplaylists. It's a problem for

indie labels but also a realchallenge."

Another priority for Lebeauis to develop the local roster.Roadrunner already hadsigned some local acts, butthis strategy will be strength-ened. "We are going to searchfor new talent," says Lebeau,who adds that the scope of thesignings will not be limited torock acts. For a transitionperiod, Lebeau will be actingas A&R manager until theposition is filled.

Roadrunner employs tenpeople in France and isexpected to gross some Ffr 30million (app. US$5.5 million)in 1996.

Intercord Closes StuttgartDistribution Centreby Christian Lorenz

STUTTGART - EMI -owned label.Intercord will relocate distrib-ution, logistics and part of itsadministration to EMI Elec-trola's distribution centre inCologne, effective July 1, 1997.

Intercord MD Herbert Kol-lisch announced the closure ofthe company's 20 year oldwarehouse in Stuttgart onOctober 30. Kollisch expects

some 40 jobsto be cut as aresult of therestructuring.The cost bene-fits from shed-ding Inter -cord'sdistributiondepartmentwill be used to

expand the company's A&Rand promotion activities.

Kollisch points out that themove will increase Intercord'scompetitive advantage andsafeguard the company's cre-ative staff. According to ownestimates, Intercord currentlyhas a 5% share in the Germanmarket thanks to a flourishingdomestic A&R policy whichhas established acts like Purand Fettes Brot in the Germancharts. With Fool's Garden thelabel also boasts one of Ger-many's most successful popexports.

"We act like a small cre-ative team but have the mar-ket clout of a large company,"explains Kollisch of the label's

A&R successes. "Thus we canoperate with major musclewithout giving artists the feel-ing of being ignored in spite ofthe flood of new releases."

Citing the performance ofFool's Garden and E-Rotic,

EMI Europe president andCEO Rupert Perry says in awritten statement that he isconfident that Intercord willcontinue to show that Germanartists can also have interna-tional impact.

Crossover act Disnieland is the winner of BMG Entertainment'snational German talent contest Fame '96. The funk metal four -piece from Wuppertal was awarded with an album contract duringthe final round of the contest on October 26 in Cologne. BMG fur-ther throws in the support of H-Blockx producer Ralph Quick, whowill ensure that the band gets the right crossover sound on CD.Runners up were singers Anjali and Cheri Kedida, who will worktogether with Tony Catania on various dance projects on BMG'sLogic label. The idea to provide young artists with the support ofsuccessful, established producers is a novum on the battle of thebands scene. With this move Fame '96 is the first event to react tothe increased indifference among German musicians and industryinsiders towards traditional competitions promising money or one-off recording deals. Apart from Quick and Catania the jury includ-ed producers Dieter Dirks (Scorpions), Thorsten Borger (Tic TacToe) and Dieter Falk (Pur). Our photo shows BMG EntertainmentGSA president Thomas M. Stein (far right) presenting Disnielandwith the Fame '96 award during the Music Factory fair inCologne.

Cadena 100's 'Jungle'Walks On The Wild Sideby Howell Llewellyn

CLOCKWATCHBad luck, or what? Even the best radioshows have their off days, and Clock -watch was certainly out of luck whenwe tuned into Cadena 100 for "Bien-venido A La Jungla" ("Welcome To TheJungle").

Where was El Pulpo ("The Octopus")with his awful singing voice? What hadhappened to El Ciego ("The BlindMan") and his excellent imitations ofpoliticians and rival nets' jocks? Andwhy was there so much out -of -charac-ter interviewing of Carlos Goni, thelead singer of Spanish band Revolver?

The answer is that, apart from itbeing Monday morning, not all "zoo"members were in their studio cages,and an agreement with Warner MusicSpain meant that the show's main pre-senter, Jose Antonio Abelian (probablySpain's most popular jock) was commit-ted to doing a lengthy promotion forRevolver's new album Calle Mayor dur-ing the show.

So, "Bienvenido A La Jungla" is usu-ally much wilder thanthis, but it's still good tohear the tamer side ofwhat the latest EGMratings say is the mostpopular morning show in Madrid andmany other Spanish cities.

The EGM survey also gave Cadena100 as a whole more than one millionlisteners for the first time since the netwas launched in 1992, leaving directorRafael Revert euphoric. Owned byCadena COPE, it is essentially a rock -based full -service station.

Revert is a veteran of music radio,and helped set up Spain's first musicFM station-Cadena SER's Los 40Principales-in 1966. He acknowledgesthat "The Jungle" is largely responsiblefor Cadena 100's current success.

Indeed, cynics (that is, the rest ofthe radio industry) suggest that Cade-na 100 would be nothing without Abel -

Jose Anotonia Abellcin

lan. Revert and Abellan's partnershipgoes back nearly 20 years, when the 16year -old with obvious potential wastaken on at Los 40 Principales byRevert.

"I could see the lad would go a longway, and his popularity at Los 40 andthen here has been well deserved," hesays. "I once sacked him, and he wentto work for a while at Onda Cero Musi-ca [now Onda 10], but when I movedhere to set up Cadena 100 we got backtogether again."

So what happened on Monday'sshow? "Ah, nothing really. It was justan off day. He [Abelian] doesn't usuallydo straight interviews, but we had acommitment with a label and thingsdidn't quite take off."

Mayhem, IrreverenceEven so, a first-time listener tuninginto the show that morning would stillhave been impressed by the degree ofmayhem and irreverence offered by"The Jungle." Our Clockwatch hourstarted with the show's "zoo" giving alamentable version of an unidentifiablesong amid much cackling and howling,

with El Pulpo and ElCiego joining Patricia-who is always liable toburst into song at anymoment-in vying to tell

stories about their weekend.Abelian has a completely free hand

in his choice of music, and it is no exag-geration to say that he has createdstars. His method? If he likes a demotape or a new record, especially if theartist is virtually unknown, he willplay the songs frequently without say-ing who the artist is.

This year he did it with anunknown singer -songwriter, RosanaArbelo. Within days, fans were callingthe programme and almost begginghim on air to reveal the singer's identi-ty. He refused for a long time, until thebuzz had got around and MCAreleased her debut album, LunasRotas. By late -October, the album was

still number one after 20 weeks, andhad sold over 330.000 units. Whenasked in a recent interview the reasonfor her success, Rosana said "It wasprobably Abellan-he was like my god-father."

Revert claims the current success ofEMI's female duo Ella Baila Sola isalso due largely to Abellan's initial air-play-sales of its debut album of thesame name are now in excess of100.000.

Zany HumourBut the real strength of "The Jungle" isAbelian's zany sense of humour, whichoften has a cruel streak runningthrough it. How else can you describethe phoning up of unwitting membersof the public who are then ridiculed onthe air (usually though a "friend" of thevictim who has written to Abelian totell him something about the victim).

An example during our Clockwatchhour was a call to a young woman whohad just had a baby. Abelian made thecall on an old dial phone (or so itsounded) and the woman answered.Abelian introduced himself as a repre-sentative of a well-known chain ofbaby -care shops, and told her that ifshe could name 10 baby -care items, thechain would give them to her for free.

The woman seemed tired and con-fused, and was finding it difficult tothink beyond basic items like nappiesand milk bottles. She was hinderedconsiderably by Abelian's hectoringand one suspected she would haveliked to put the phone down. But Abel-ian finally said the items would be ontheir way soon-a complete lie, ofcourse.

"We always contact the person soonafter [the call] to say that it was ajoke," explains Revert. "Nobody minds,and when we say that so-and-so friendcontacted us with the idea, they see

the funny side. The jokes work becauseAbelian uses real references. Somepeople think the companies mentionedare paying for the advertising, but it'snot the case."

"The Octopus" who appears on theshow is, in fact, producer CarlosMoreno, and the nickname refers tothe fact that while he is singing likethe Bard in Asterix, his hands are busyoperating the desk. "The Blind Man,"with his excellent and hilarious imita-tions, really is blind-Revert discov-ered him through a Los 40 DJ talentcontest.

Another ex -Los 40 participant inthe show is Jordi Casoliva, who con-tributes via an open microphone at theCadena 100 studio in Barcelona.Revert says that almost nothing in theshow is premeditated, and that "TheJungle" works precisely because it is"absolutely natural and spontaneous."And of course, chaotic.

Student AudienceRevert says the show has all types oflisteners, although university studentsform a strong core. Certainly, thehumour of "The Jungle" smacks of col-lege pranks, but it also tends to be alittle exclusive in the way that the "in -crowd" humour of students often is.

"The Jungle" has few competitions,and those that it does run tend to be ofthe very participative "tell us your cra-ziest holiday story" variety. News, traf-fic and other information bites areinserted by the network's local stationsaround the country into three -minutebreaks every hour.

Revert is a big fan of the show in hisroles of both station director and ordi-nary listener. "Abellan's skill is that heis a great communicator with youngpeople," he notes. "He's close to being akind of preacher man, if he isn't thatalready."

M & M RADIO MAKING WAVES

Baby Boomers Cry Out For Own Format'Wrinkly radio' is the wrong attitude toward a

potential market numbering some 120 million

Europe -wide. Broadcast sales specialist Tony Grundy

says radio is missing out on a potential listeners base

not only strong in numbers, but in economic clout.

He pleads for serious attention to his demographic.

RADIO FORMATSIt's a simple enough question, andyet nobody so far has got theanswer. I'm nearly 48 years old(finally admitting it!). That makesme a "baby boomer"-a post-warbaby-a teenager in the swinging'60s. Part, therefore, of a demo-graphic phenomenon which todaysees 120 million people acrossEurope over 50 years old. By com-parison, the US has only 67 millionpeople 50 years and older.

Quoted in Music & Media(November 4, 1995), French adver-tising executive Jean -Paul Treguersaid that in Europe this age groupwould increase in size by 75%between 1990-2020, while thoseunder 50 would only increase by 1%over the same period. He went onto affirm, by way of example, thatFrance has 17 million over 50 year -olds representing a wealth ofUS$137 billion. So why have we sofar failed to create a suitable for-mat to sell to advertisers that willaccess this valuable demographic?

Babies Holding ReinsThe interesting thing is that inmost other areas, be it politics,sport, fashion or music, babyboomers are in control. Much oftoday's charts contain re -workedversions of hits from some 20 yearsago-TV and radio advertisementsfeature music from the same era.Today's fashion makes it difficult totell a person's age just by the waythey dress. The baby boomers aregetting older, but they aren't anx-ious to admit it or don't think it'srelevant. This group is not about tolet go. It has tremendous economicclout and yet, in radio terms, wedon't seem to know how or don'tcare about the need to market tothem.

Across Europe the story is thesame. Apart from the odd exception,nobody is giving the demographicthe attention it deserves. Could itbe that the people who programmethe music are getting younger andcan't relate to these listener'sneeds, or is it a vicious circle creat-ed by simplistically referring to thismarket as the "grey economy" or"golden oldies," which many adver-tising agencies are not apparentlyinterested in? If you look at the UKmarket, with some 18 million peo-

ple over 50, 15% (2.7 million) don'tlisten to radio at all (SagaRadio/Infinity 1995). There aremany more that do listen, but mypremise is that they are listeningbecause it is what they grew upwith-but it is largely by defaultthat stations still have them. Let'slook at what's on offer in the UK: BBC Radio 1 is just not aimed at

them any more; Radio 2 is too old and patronising; Radio 3 is, well, Radio 3 really! Radio 4 is very professional but

predictable and old -feeling, andno music;

5 Live is great if you're into sport; Commercial radio FM is, largely

speaking, aimed at a youngermarket, presented by DJs;

Commercial radio AM is "goldenoldies." Great if you're in sometype of '60s time warp, but there'sa limit to how many times youcan hear Gerry And The Pace-makers without cracking up;

BBC local radio is "wooden box"radio-safe, boring, and aimed atthe 70+ market;

Commercial national brands dooffer something, but, Virgin onAM, come on!

Classic FM is classy-but it's onlypart of the equation.

Lumped TogetherThe problem is that, so far, when-ever people come up with a formatthey lump all of this vast numbertogether and say "over 50s." Soapparently that means that at 48 Iam going to have the same musicaltastes and interests as my mumwho is 73? I don't think so. I wouldhave a great deal more in commonwith today's 40 year -old andyounger (it's worth noting thatwhen I'm in my car, the Oasis tapeI play is mine and not my 15 year -old daughter's). Perhaps program-mers have been looking at thismatter from the wrong standpointbecause, surely, if they were ableto deliver a strong 40-60 year -oldprofile as a niche market, advertis-ers would flock to buy.

So don't think of it as "oldies" or"wrinkly radio"-that's a real turnoff. In fact, don't talk about age atall. It's not about age, but moreabout attitude and outlook, and thebaby boomers have got lots of it.Don't assume anything, but doplease surprise us. Create radio

that we won't switch away frombecause we're not sure what you'regoing to do next. The presentersshould be real personalities withbrains.

Selling The FormatYou need to think about whoshould sell this product and how itshould be sold. Why is it that mostselling in radio goes to the FMchannel when both AM and FM areavailable? The answer is that thesalesperson very often doesn't lis-ten to the AM Gold channel, sothey can't relate to it-a self-fulfill-ing prophesy if there ever was one.The station that's crying out to becreated would be sold by profes-sional sales people, possibly older,and presumably likely to be brightenough to appreciate the massivevalue of becoming an expert in amarket that is going to continuegrowing by some 75% over the next25 years or so.

With the help of people likeTreguer in France and radio con-sultant Claudio Astorri in Italy(Music & Media, March 23 1996),perhaps the radio business inEurope will wake up to the truepotential of this powerful demo-

graphic. I am a firm believer thatuntil radio presents a clear, well -branded product that reaches the40-60 age profile, we have no rightto accuse advertisers and clients ofbeing the barrier to success inreaching baby boomers. So there isthe challenge-now create the for-mat!

Swoon easily matches Restlessin subtlety.

THE CARDIGANSBeen It - Stockholm/Polydor ehr/ace

PRODUCER: Tore JohanssonSometimes innocent music hides indecentlyrics. This new midtempo track of theSwedish easy listening -poppers is a cen-sored radio edit. In the original, which isdelivered as track number two, the naivefemale voice sings "I've been your whore",which is hidden under an organ lick inthe controlled version. Lyrics notwith-standing, your listeners will love thissnappy, jazzy tune.

THE CORRSLove To Love You - Lava/Atlantic ehr/ace

PRODUCER: David FosterThe Irish Corrs are three gorgeous sistersand one brother.

PRODUCERS: Emilio Estefan Jr., KikeSantanderThe prominent percussion and Spanishguitars take your mind to warmerplaces... and such a response is imagin-able, because this characteristic Estefan-ballad is one of her best for a long time.

GOTA & THE LOW DOGWhen The Morning Brings Another Day- SPVPRODUCER: not listed d/ehr/ace

"I got the answers on the radio today,sounds like I'm all alone again". That'sone way to start a radio -friendly jazz -dance tune with a nice bluesy voice, wah-wah guitars and old organs. If you'relooking for an intro for a funky radioshow

you should give the extra track LiveWired Electro a spin.

HEROES DEL SILENCIOMaldito Duende - EMI r/ehr

PRODUCER: Andy JacksonThey may have retired for a while, butthe Spanish goth-rockers can still beenjoyed on CD. This live single with itsmighty drums breathes a little life anddrama into their anthemic brand of rock.

WALLY McKEYDreaming- Masters/ZYX ehr/ace

PRODUCERS: McKey, LavermanIt's time to have fun! McKey manages torecreate the sound of the '20s on a mod-em synthesizer, although it's an originalsong. Expect lots of funny sounds, eventhe sound of a musical saw is mod-ernised.

AXELLE REDA Talons - Virgin ace/eh r

PRODUCER: Wouter van Belle,Axelle RedRed's blue-eyed soul has a surprisinglygenuine feeling. She can definitely standher own with the Memphis vets whojoined her in the Nashville Castle studio.Her warm, deep voice can obviously han-dle this mid -tempo funky soul track.

SOUND OF R.E.L.S.All The Best Girls - Fazer/Warner ehr/d

PRODUCER: R.E.L.S.Finnish Eurodance with a soulful twist.The mid -tempo beats and the Wham! -sounding horns give it a poppy flavour,but the vocals are distinctly R&B. Thisdeserves a spin outside of Finland too.

2 FABIOLAUniversal Love - Circus/EMI ehr/ace

PRODUCERS: BVBA, KrimsonThis eurohouse-act is already very popu-lar in Belgium. Starting with a staccatointro, a pleasant parlando female voiceis added to warm synthesizer layers,which give this slow song some seasonalfeeling.

UNDERGROUND CIRCUSI Am The King- SPV d/ehr

PRODUCER: Tom FrederikseNot the sound of the underground, but alittle reminiscent of the late ABC.Though the single version has a rock -attitude with slight synthesizers, thiscan simply turned to more dance -orient-ed stuff, as the three remixes show.

PRODUCER: Rick RubinRubin really goes out on a limb here, withCash doing Beck (Rowboat) and Sound -garden (Rusty Cage) compositions, accom-panied by Tom Petty and the Heartbreak-ers. Other guests include Flea, MartyStewart and Linsay Buckingham. Cash'scollaborators pick up on his unapolegeticrawness, which is really the star of thisalbum. His own Country Boy and MeanEyed Cat have a no -holds -barred rocka-billy stomp, but it's death songs like Spir-itual ("Jesus I don't wanna die alone")that really bare Cash's soul mercilessly.Warmer in tone is his version of Petty'sSouthern Accents.

ETIENNE DAHOEden - Virgin eh r/ace/d

PRODUCERS: Daho, TurboustThe French pioneer of sensitive melodieshas discovered electronic dance beats andambient trance sounds, resulting in anexciting album. Particularly strong is thesure-fire EHR hit Au Commencementwith its mellow jungle beats and LesPluies Chaudes De L'Ete, which is basedon a Massive Attack shuffle and a lan-guid, breezy Brazilian sound. Daho givesan enigmatic Twin Peaks twist to it,which gives it a little spice. He continueshis Brazilian trip with Astrud Gilberto inLes Bords De Seine. Daho's easy listeningstreak comes out in the Swingle Singerscollaboration Timide Intimite.

E -TYPEThe Explorer - Stockholm/Polydor d/ehr

PRODUCER: E -Type, Denniz Pop, variousOpening with a traditional medievaltrack E -Type surprises fans and critics.You can't believe your ears when youhear him rock in the speedy We Gotta Goand toast in the dubby reggae track SoDem A Com.

BEA

Thin Skinned - Antler-Subway/EMI ace/a

PRODUCERS: Bea, Luco CamberlinThe former singer of Belgium's highquality rockers Won Ton Ton has deliv-ered one hell of a solo album. First ofall, her mysterious, velvet voice is en-chanting and multi -faceted. She runsan impressive gamut of emotions,switching from seduction to aggressionat the drop of a hat (Times). Anothermajor plus is the brilliant way in whichshe and Camberlin have arranged thetracks, blending jazzy guitars withfloaty synthesizers (Jetlagging) orfunky beats with growling guitar riffs(Carried Away). Bea also welcomes eth-nic elements (the wailing violin in Coffee, the flute on Oh How)... This Rain).Electronic beats and acoustic guitars gohand in hand on this impressive debut.

M & M M U S I C ARTISTS IN PROGRESS

Axelle Red Records Blue -Eyed Soul Album With Memphis Vetsby Marc Maes

BRUSSELS - "Axelle Red is the kind ofsinger whose success is not defined byher hits, but her talent. Whether hercareer goes up or down, she will alwaysbe there." That's how Virgin BelgiumMD Firmin Michiels introduces theFlemish speaking French languageartist, whose second album A Pitonswas recorded with the aristocracy ofMemphis soul.

Axelle Red joined Virgin after hersecond single, Kennedy Boulevardopened up the way to the charts inBelgium and France. Her 1993 debutalbum, Sans plus attendre waspropelled by the single Sensualite.Radio hits such as Je TAttends and LeMonde Tourne Mal, sold close to half amillion units in mainly Frenchspeaking territories.

Axelle's second album A Tatons wasrecorded in Nashville's Castle studios,which to her was a dream come true.As her manager Filip Vanes of Music &Roses, explains, "She always wanted togo out and record with the people sheadmired as a fan. Working with Staxand Atlantic veterans like SteveCropper, Lester Snell and Roger

Hawkins was the real thing for her.Steve Cropper's typical guitar licksfrom Otis Redding's and Booker T'shits, have found their way in to Axelle'salbum."

The album also features an extrahidden track featuring Axelle Red andsoul legend Isaac Hayes. "Axelle andIsaac met in Amsterdam-he talked toher about 'wanting to do something inFrench' and they were off to Memphis'sHouse of Blues studios after the album

was recorded. Marque was recordedwith Hayes' musicians and is featuredas a hidden track because Axelleconsiders it a gadget, stepping awayfrom the album", explains Vanes.

All Format LaunchFor A Tatons, Axelle Red teamed upwith producer Wouter vanBelle-having written the bulk of thesongs herself, with contributions byAlbert Hammond and the Seff brothers.A Pitons has become a very personalalbum. "The album also sounds moremature compared to Sans PlusAttendre," says Michiels, "and the factthat Axelle has been more involved inthe production and song writing makesit a different record."

"The new album also keeps up withthe initial 15-25 core audience whohave grown three years older," addsVanes, "and I hope they follow Axelle.That's why we're launching A Tatonson all radio formats. She will also beavailable for interviews with a broadrange of stations."

Firmin Michiels says the album willbe put on the market "the gentle andeasy way": no press conference or whathe calls "over -the -top -stunts". He

prefers awaiting the momentum ofthe album release, which will atleast yield four or five singles.

Although Axelle Red is signed toVirgin Belgium, the company hasdevoted quite some attention to thesinger on an international level."The fact that Axelle has beenincorporated in Virgin France'snational artist roster, alongsideJulien Clerc, Renaud, FrancoiseHardy and Etienne Daho, is thebest illustration that Virgin takesthings seriously. Also, non -Frenchlanguage territories like Holland

and Germany agreed to release ATritons simultaneously on October 18th.Scandinavia, Italy, Spain and Greecewill follow before the end of the year asthey all are convinced of Axelle's talentand her blue eyed soul."

Tailor-made for FM RadioVirgin France product manager of localrepertoir Nicolas Dufournet says AxelleRed is particularly loved by Frenchradio. "She delivers what I would callmusic tailor-made for FM radio. Toprepare for the release of the album, wehave sent our radio promo team on theroad to push the single. Programmerswere informed about the album'srecording process and its. guestmusicians. We created a buzz which

resulted in the single entering the TopFM playlist within a week of release,something Virgin hasn't seen in thelast three years."

The Real ThingDufournet adds that Virgin Franceconcluded a deal with Europe 2 toadvertise the album on radio, TV andprint. "It's a common practice here," hesays. "Europe 2 applied for it almost ayear ago. Their access to print mediahas been decisive in the deal, as radiois happy to play Axelle, but printedadvertising is quite expensive inFrance." Europe 2 head of musicNicolas Du Roy says A Tatons will soonmove up from three to five plays perday as the single reflects both melodyand freshness. "What we like aboutAxelle's new single is the catchymelody and groove-it's no 'chanson'but music that fits our concept," saysZurich -based Radio Z head of musicMichelle Raue. "Most of theprogrammers liked the songimmediately and although we have noquota on foreign products, it's alwaysnice to pick a song like A Tatons."

Also BRTN Radio 2 producer RinoVer Eecke is equally enthusiastic aboutthe new album. "Axelle came to visit usin the studio to present the album. Wereally appreciate her taking the time tosing live in the studio, so the audienceknows it's the real thing."

MUSIC & MEDIA RADIO SPOTLIGHT

Research Companies VersusDo -It -Yourself SoftwareSoftware seems to be the answer to everythingnowadays, and radio research is no exception.Several European stations now turn to in-housesoftware to fulfil their call -out testing needs.Mary Weller compares the advantages of twosystems: what do research professionalsrecommend?

IF you're not usingone of these pro-grammes yourself,you have probably atleast heard of BPR

(Broadcast ProgrammingResearch) or RCS' SongTrack. Thesetwo programmes seem to be the twomost popular in-house softwarepackages available today. Withthem, some stations are conductingresearch call -outs from their ownoffices, instead of relying on aresearch expert, as they often did inthe past.

Jim Woodyard,The Research Group

Although these products havenot been in Europe longer than adecade, they seem to have taken themarket by storm. UK -basedresearch company QuestionAir(which represents Australian -basedBPR for the UK) director RachelSteel says that in the UK market,some 50% of stations now use in-house software. Paragon Researchexecutive vice-president ChrisPorter estimates that in his marketin the US, for every station whichturns to a research company for call -out testing, there are five stationswhich do it themselves in house.

Paragon Research, therefore,does not offer call -out research ser-vices, focusing its efforts on audito-rium research and consulting. How-ever, Porter is often asked forconsulting on call -outs. "For call -outs, we recommend both in-housesoftware and help from a researchcompany, depending on the stationin question. If we know that a sta-tion has no interest in taking it onthemselves, we will refer them to aresearch company which specializes

in call -outs. If they want to do itthemselves, we will raise as manyred flags as possible, and try topaint as accurate a picture as wecan of what awaits them."

Holding The ReinsThe benefits of such software to moststations seems obvious --lower costsand more control. Says RCS techni-cal support for SongTrack and Selec-tor Dean Cheriet, "Our software[and other packages] allows you toenter any questions you want your

Chris Porter,

used music schedulers in Europe, isalso a bonus. SongTrack allows youto export songs from Selector, andalso allows the music director toimport research results on a partic-ular song back into Selector. Thiscapability could come in handywhen deciding to schedule a particu-lar song in a playlist.

The Human TouchCarrying out this part of theresearch process in-house has anumber of dangers, according to TheResearch Group Europe presidentJim Woodyard, the most importantbeing the lack of attention spent onthe entire research process. "Youhave to look at music testing in abroad manner," he says. "A researchcompany doesn't sell just testing; thesoftware you are talking about isonly one step of the process it takesto become part of a station. If I'mgoing to do testing, the software isimportant to keep the results in

some kind of organisedfashion, but that's justa small part of theoverall picture."

US -based StrategicRadio Research man-aging director KurtHanson agrees, say-ing, "The software inquestion is no morethan step 10-C of the14 steps of research-ing. It does notaddress the otherfacets of research atall. It's like a company

Kurt Hanson, Strategic selling snare drumsParagon Research Radio Research which tells its clients,

interviewers to ask, from the popu- 'Now you can do your own jingles!'larity of a particular song to the timeslot of a programme. You can per-form all the operations you like, andas often as you like." The other bonusis the number of times a station cancreate a printout of results. Most ofCheriet's clients count on monthlyreports with their research software,although when quick responses arerequired on particular questions,these results are sometimes printedout weekly.

QuestionAir's Steel agrees withthis. "Having your own researchdepartment in house means thatyou are constantly on top of yourmarket. For a fraction of the price, astation could be doing call -out test-ing themselves in-house all yearround, tracking the market on aneight -week basis. They are able tosee how their market is moving,continuously monitoring it. Soft-ware allows you to start investigat-ing yourself."

For stations which have chosenRCS' SongTrack, its compatibility toSelector, one of the most widely

Sure, the drum is important, butonly a small part of the entire pro-duction.

"That leaves an entire list oftasks this software cannot fulfil," he

continues. "Coming up with theright questions and telephone num-bers, making sure the station isresearching the right issues, select-ing the right song hooks, analysingand interpreting results and select-ing the right interviewers."

Staff HasslesThis last point is something mostresearchers agree is a very impor-tant decision, and something thatstations will always have difficultywith when doing call -out testingfrom their office. Says Paragon'sPorter, "In-house call -out teams areharder to keep staffed permanently.It's a typical job that people do parttime, often students who don't careall that much about the station, anddon't have its best interests at heart.

"Above all, a station's in-housedepartment is never going toapproximate the quality a specialistoffers. If you hire a professional whodoes research full time, the resultsare going to be good."

Hanson adds, "Hiring interview-ers in-house tends to be unreliable.What you have is unsupervisedkids, calling friends to completeinterviews, or if they're in a sillymood, making up interviews them-selves. The result is that you end upMonday morning with a handful oftests and you're not sure they'retruthful."

Human FrailtyAs the biggest pitfall for in-housesoftware seems to be the lack ofhuman research expertise, is it pos-sible to combine the two worlds,having your own in-house call -outteam and making use of the exper-tise of an outside research compa-ny? That all depends on whichexpert you ask.

TRACKTHE RADIO RESEARCH SYSTEM

Strategic Research's Hansondoes not believe such a set-upwould benefit either party involved."Bringing call -outs in-house isalmost like starting up your ownresearch company," he says, "whichdoesn't make any more sense thanstarting up your own jingles compa-ny. Doing so is a mis-allocation ofmanagement time and effort, whichmeans you are spending less timeon other important areas of yourradio station."

In House WorksRCS' Cheriet agrees that the twodon't mesh easily, but believesradio management is capable ofdoing testing without the help of aresearch company. "If you arefamiliar with the software you havepurchased, then you won't need anyoutside help, besides initial supportto complete your research work," hesays. "As long as the callers under-stand what they are asking andwhy, that's all they need to know.It's also difficult to misinterpretthese results. SongTrack simplysupplies you with numbers. There's

only one way of reading them. Con-sulting for these readings doesn'tmake sense. If you are confident,you won't need their advice."

Joining ForcesQuestionAir's Steel, however, seesthe two forces coming together tocombine the advantages of in-housesoftware with the advantages of anoutside professional. "Stations justhave to make sure they get a pro-fessional involved with their in-house research," she says. "Compa-nies like my own offer detailedtraining and instruct stations onquotas and waiting periods. Inshort, we supply them with every-thing they need to know. Where theprofessional comes in the process isduring the interpretation of theresults. Without this advice, a sta-tion takes the risk of seeing whatthey want to see in the responses."

The majority of Steel's clientswork with her company not only forher help in performing call -outs,but also for other research needs,such as auditorium testing, pro-gramme formats, license applica-tion research, and analysis ofRAJAR ratings. "Some stations whohave the software, but don't ask foran outsider's opinion, lack an objec-tive view. You can see it as a back-stop. Most stations work with us forthe whole mix, right through to in-house research."

Rome Hosts NAB RadioOperations Seminars

For the fourth year the NationalAssociation Of Broadcastersbrings its expertise - across theAtlantic to serve the needs ofEuropean radio professionals.This year the seminars, tuckedinto two days of intensive meet-ings, will feature programming,sales and execu-tive managementtopics. The latterreplaces lastyear's technologyseminarsbecause, in thewords of NABdirector of Euro-pean affairs Lucy Smith, "tech-nical directors will be moreinterested in attending discus-sions connected to a technicalexhibition because they need tosee it, and we're not trying todevelop such an exhibition dur-ing this event."

NAB takes pains to thor-oughly survey the topics ofmajor interest to Europeanradio operators, and Smith saysthere was strong support forpanels on executive manage-ment. Some management sub-jects include advice on organis-ing and planning your timehosted by David Gifford; how touse information elements tokeep listeners tuned in byMetro Networks David Saper-

stein and developing customerloyalty by building their brand,presented by RAB's GeorgeHyde.

Programming seminars ratehigh among radio operatorsquestioned, and some of thespeakers featured are Strategic

Media Researchmanaging direc-tor Kurt Hanson(whose columnsare regularly fea-tured in Music &Media); TheResearch Grouppresident Dennis

Clark and The Radio Consul-tants' David Martin.

David Gifford will presentadvice on managing, coachingand counseling sales people;Vincent Turco (also a contribu-tor to M&M's "Making Waves"columns) will discuss how radiocan compete with TV and printmedia for advertising budgetsand George Hyde will delve intothe problem of maximising salespotential.

Rome -based commercialradio network Radio Dimen-sione Suono is a co-sponsor ofthe event, and programmedirector Marco Minelli is partic-ipating in seminars on both pro-gramming and management.

The Red Hot series of AIDS benefit albums began in 1990 with Red Hot 6 Blue, a spirited reinterpretation of Cole Porter's songs for the 90's. The next

men albums targeted specific genres: Red Hot + Dance, f10 Alternative, Red Hot + Country, Stolen moments: Red Hot - Cool, Red Hot + Bothered,

Offbeat and America is Dying slowly. With these albums, the Red Hot Organization continued to raise and glue away millions of dollars to fight AIDS.

Red Hot + Rio returns to the original idea of a cross -genre concept album, this time pacing tribute to the music of Antonio Carlos Jobim and the rich

tradition of Brazilian pop music from the CO's and 70's.

Red Hot + Rio is designed as an informal tribute to the peruasiue beauty and influence of Brazilian pop music from Boss: Moue through Propicalisimo.

We began bu asking Jobim's blessing and he graciously agreed to allow us to proceed, and donated his songs to the project lust prior to his untimely

passing in 1994. We then approached a wide range of artists around the world to confirm our instinct that Brazilian music continued to hold swan

and be raiment. The response was tremendous. Red Hot + Rio became a true collaboration in which the artists chose songs and Miles, then remade

them in such a uaried and powerful wag as to proue our point more effectively than these words euer can.

In addition to pawing tribute to a great musical tradition, Red Hot + Rio is the first in a series of Red Hot projects designed to deal specifically with

the impact of AIDS outside the US and Europe. Brazil currentlu has the most significant rate of HIU infection in Latin Americo and is consistently

ranked as hauing one of the flue highest number of AIDS cases in the world.

AIDS is not a problem of certain countries or type of people. It is a global human tragedy of epic proportions; perhaps the worst world health crisis

ewer known. So much needs to be done that one pop album may seem trivial and poorly suited to the task. But music brings people together. And

the euerlasting beauty of Brazilian pop is that it celebrates too with a knowing sense of its complications. The lesson we hope to share in this samba

school is that although the language of lone now includes latex, it will never end...

M& M CHAR TS SALES/AIRPLAY

Breakin' & EnteringA weekly Eurochart analysis by Bob Macdonald

The commercial juggernaut that is the Spice Girls continues to dominatethe Eurochart Hot 100 Singles. This week they achieve the unique feat ofreplacing themselves at number 1, as the two -million selling Wannabe (Vir-gin) slips one notch to make way for the group's second single, Say You'll BeThere. Strangely, the Girls manage to lock up the two positions withoutbeing number 1 in any individual country this week (see Top National Sell-ers, page 22). Their strength lies in their pan-European appeal-Say You'llBe There has already been a chart -topper in the UK and Finland, and thisweek climbs to number 2 in Denmark, Norway and Ireland; in addition, Bel-gium and Switzerland have both singles in their national top 10.

The Sales Breaker award goes to Robson & Jerome, whose third singleWhat Becomes Of The Broken Hearted (RCA) charges from number 46 tonumber 14 in only its second week on the chart. Though also charting in Ire-land, the jump is mainly fuelled by the single's instant success in the duo'snative UK, where the Jimmy Ruffin remake climbs from 11 to number 1.RCA has caused a stir in the British music industry with its strict no -dis-count policy on the R&J single, which has led most retailers to sell it atd3.99 from day one, twice the price of most new releases. The move, which isbeing closely watched by other companies, does not appear to have harmedthe singing actors' commercial clout. A wider international push for the duo'srecording career is planned for the new year.

Making headlines on the European Top 100 Albums chart are the peren-nially united members of the Kelly Family, whose latest album AlmostHeaven (Kel-Life) is the highest new entry of the year so far. The number 4debut eclipses the first -week positions of two veteran superstars TinaTurner entered at number 7 in April with Wildest Dreams (Parlophone) andPhil Collins debuted at 7 two weeks ago with Dance Into The Light (WEA),now in its second week at number 1.

Just behind the Kellys at number 5, The Beatles earn the Sales Break-er award with Anthology 3 (Apple). Though already charting in nine coun-tries, the third and final album in the Anthology series is not in the officialGreek top 20 album chart, which makes its first appearance on the TopNational Sellers page this week. Greece is nevertheless caught up in Beatle-mania, with The Red Album at number 12, The Blue Album at 14 and Sgt.Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band at 20. Three further albums from the FabFour catalogue are listed lower down the country's top 50.

The second highest new entry on the European Top 100 Albums listbelongs to the unstoppable Celine Dion, whose Live A Paris (Epic/Colum-bia) bows at number 12. That gives the French-Canadian superstar no lessthan four entries on the current chart-Falling Into You holds at number 3in its 35th week, D'Eux slips to 58 and The Colour Of My Love re-enters at97. With a quadruple whammy like that, Dion is well on course to becrowned Europe's best-selling album artist of 1996.

wide on satellite. CurrentlyThe Box is available to 90% ofthe UK's 1.5 million cable sub-scribers. It has a weekly reachof more than 20% of its coreaudience.

A Source close to the dealcomments, "Expansion to therest of Europe is an obviousthing to think about. Europe isa big market. So, satellite anddigital broadcasting there arethings that have to be lookedat closely."

EMAP chief executiveRobin Miller also hints thatthe company's intentions forThe Box extend beyond Britishshores, saying, "We anticipatedeveloping the revenue of TheBox in what is already a rapid-

ly growing non -terrestrial tele-vision market."

EMAP acquired the chan-nel from its US owners, VideoJukebox Network Inc. andTicketmaster on October 31,for a cash consideration ofUS$12.5 million. EMAP'sbroadcasting arm, EMAPRadio, will be mainly responsi-ble for the operation of TheBox, which will, it claims, beprofitable in 1997 on an antici-pated turnover of more thanUS$3.2 million.

The Box was launched inthe UK in 1992 by managingdirector Vincent Monsey anddirector of programmes LizLaskowski. Both executiveswill remain with The Box.

GWR Reshufflecontinued from page 3

Now employing close to 800people in 25 UK locations,GWR has gone for a measureof devolved responsibility.

An overall group executivecommittee chaired by groupchief executive Ralph Bernardwill include deputy chief exec-utive and finance directorPatrick Taylor, group pro-gramme director SteveOrchard, group sales and mar-keting director Simon Wardand recently retired formergroup operations directorEddie Blackwell.

Assuming the Classic FMacquisition is completed, GWRwill operate in three divisions:UK national radio comprisingClassic FM; UK local radio,comprising the group's localcommercial stations; and over-seas operations, with responsi-bility for holdings includingProspect Radio in NewZealand and the 60% -ownedRadio Edelweiss in Austriaand Italy.

Bernard takes directresponsibility for the UK

national and overseas divi-sions. Taylor will head thelocal division, split into threegeographical regions, eachwith its own regional manag-ing director.

Every local radio station inthe UK will have a managingdirector (formerly stationdirector), reporting to theappropriate regional manag-ing director.

According to sources atGWR, the station managingdirectors "will be responsiblefor the station's programmingoutput and for advertisingsales". They will also beaccountable for their individ-ual station's profitability.According to GWR chief execu-tive Ralph Bernard, the newmanagement structure "pro-vides the means for the groupmanagement to focus on grow-ing the overall business." Headds, "It also enables our localmanagement teams to runtheir businesses in anautonomous way so that theycan be responsive to the needsof their listeners and of theiradvertising clients."

MTV Awardscontinued from page 3

version of the event on Satur-day, November 16, throughthe ITV network. Togetherwith further TV deals in nineEuropean and four LatinAmerican territories as well asSingapore, the MTV EuropeMusic Awards will be Europe'slargest ever pop music eventin terms of audience figures.

MTV is fast developing intoa key player in the interna-tional TV programme market.Flamboyant flagship pro-grammes like the EMA arelikely to cement MTV's advan-tage in an industry wherecommercial TV faces decliningbudgets and stiff competition."Music TV is in danger of

being pushed into a low budgetcorner," observes MTV Europepresident and creative directorBrent Hansen in a recentinterview. "The viewers, on theother hand, still want to beentertained with exceptionalprogrammes on a grand scale.

"The EMA commands acomparatively large produc-tion budget," admits Hansen,"but it has become a trade-mark programme and part ofthat is down to the fact thatwe don't settle for cheapersolutions." The internationalinterest by programme buyersin the EMA shows that spend-ing money on music program-ming pays off in the long run.It can even bring pop musicback onto prime- time familyTV.

New Euro-Stationcontinued from page 3

He adds, "Many artists [inEurope] are forced to recordtheir songs in English becausethere is no vehicle for their ownmaterial outside their owncountry. EuroZone will providethat vehicle and will hope to settrends in European listeningpatterns, providing a chance formembers of the community toenjoy each other's culturethrough music."

The output of Eurozone sta-tions will be around 80% musicand 20% speech. The speechcontent will mainly be in Eng-lish, although local stations willprovide news and informationbulletins at appropriate pro-gramme junctions in their locallanguage. European news willbe broadcast at the top of thehour, and there will be a dailynews magazine, "EuropeToday." Various short speechfeatures throughout the day willinclude pan-European press

reviews, European travel andevent highlights, economic newsand spotlights on individualnational charts.

One or two big -name UK andFrench presenters are alreadylined up to sign for the station,which will employ DJs from avariety of countries to presentshows in English. Donovansays, in general, EuroZone willbe looking for "good all-roundcommunicators.' rather thanhousehold radio names in localmarkets. EuroZone says it alsoplans to regularly swap theirpresenters' studios, so that aGerman presenter may broad-cast from Spain, or a French DJfrom Italy.

EuroZone is one of a numberof organisations to recentlydeclare it will be starting a pan-European radio service. Plansannounced earlier this year(Music & Media, May 4) by Fin -S for a satellite -only service andby Delta 171 for a longwave sta-tion have yet to bear fruit.

Danish ZTV Closescontinued from page 3

So far, MPG Group ownedZTV has refused to reveal thefigures behind the decision,but Inggaard admits thatthere was no way the companycould be restructured to existon its income.

When the Danish channelwas launched in March lastyear, the idea was to copy thesuccess of the Swedish originalZTV and do the same in Nor-way, thus forming a Scandina-vian network with the accom-panying economies of scale.

But despite Denmark's ZTVgaining the same ratings asthe Swedish equivalent withits mix of music video, youthprogramming and comedies,the advertising didn't arrive.

The loss of the channel willbe a blow for the Danishrecording industry, as it gavevaluable exposure to home -based acts. Some 32 stafferswill lose their jobs, althoughInggaard hopes all will findother jobs within MPG, andfreelancers and suppliers willbe hit hard. "We were just acouple of years too early," Ing-gaard laments.

Airplay ActionEHR Top 40 commentary by Pieter Kops

Spice Girls don't settle forless-number 1 that is.Only five weeks after thetwo-week EHR chart reignof the vocal quintet's debutsingle Wannabe termina-ted, the follow-up effortSay You'll Be There hasalso managed to grab the

most wanted chart position on European Hit Radio.This coincides with the attainment of the Eurochartnumber 1 position, taking over from Wannabe.

The triumphant move of the new Spice Girls single,which has pushed Donna Lewis' I Love You AlwaysForever into second position after a three-week stay atthe top, is due to 17 adds on EHR. Particularly inPoland, Belgium, Portugal and Turkey, Say You'll BeThere has attracted significant new airplay this week.The single's roster has increased to 81 stations in 23countries. Holland and Denmark currently provide thebroadest support, producing national penetrationratios of 80-83%. Looking at things from a regionalperspective, it is interesting that the new Spice Girlssingle now tops the Scandinavian and Benelux lists,while the previous one still dominates the Hungarianlist (see Major Market Airplay, page 31).

The highest new entry in the EHR Top 40 goes toBritish singer Baby Bird. You're Gorgeous, the leadsingle from the album Ugly Beautiful (reviewed in ourNovember 2 issue), debuts at number 23. It marks thefirst EHR entry for the Echo label, following MCA'slicensing deal with the Chrysalis Music Group:ownedimprint last year. Before Baby Bird's Echo deal, thesinger released four lo-fi albums in a nine -month timespan.

You're Gorgeous is reported in rotation by 31programmers in 13 countries. The artist's native UKleads the list with a 59% acceptance level, whileDenmark and Portugal follow closely with 50-53%.Other territories where the song fares well on theairwaves include Belgium, Finland, Ireland andNorway. On a regional level, the Stephen Jones andSteve Power -produced track does best in-again-theUK, where it is positioned at number 2, followed byScandinavia (number 19).

R.E.M. has the hottest track on EHR on their handsthis week, as Bittersweet Me leaps up 12 places inRadio Active form. Boosted by 10 adds, the track-thefollow-up to E -Bow The Letter and the second single tobe taken from the band's Eurocharting album NewAdventures In Hi-Fi-has built up a 42 -station roster,encompassing 15 countries. As yet, Norway, Finland,Denmark, Germany, Spain and the UK are mostsupportive (35-60% penetration in those countries).

Bittersweet Me is the 15th EHR hit for the US bandsince the launch of the chart in December 1990. Of allprevious hits, seven made it to the top 10, which makesup a formidable 50% proportion. Those toppers were1992's Drive (peak: number 2), 1991's Shiny HappyPeople (7), 1994's What's The Frequency Kenneth (7),this year's E -Bow The Letter (7), 1991's Losing MyReligion (8), 1994's Bang And Blame (9) and 1992'sMan On The Moon (10).

On The RoadBorder Breakers commentary by Raul Cairo

Five weeks after it entered the BorderBreakers chart, the third single taken fromRobert Miles' debut album Dreamland, OneAnd One, surges to the number one position.It does so thanks to massive support acrossmost of Europe. What is remarkable however,is the quick response by leading British pro-grammers, who added the track soon after itsUK release. Prestigious EHR outlets suchBBC Radio 1/London and the Metro RadioGroup based in Newcastle apparently har-boured no reservations about the song, andare just a few of the early supporters. It isMiles' second number one in the chart, thefirst being Children, which topped the chartfor two non-consecutive weeks early this year.Also noteworthy is the fact that this instru-mental dancetrack dethrones a somewhatsimilar effort, B.B.E.'s Seven Days And OneWeek, which also enjoyed a more or less com-parable airplay spread.

Scatman John

The highest entry this week is ScatmanJohn's Everybody Jam, which enters straightinto the top ten at position seven. In total, thesong earned a massive 21 adds, a feat, whichalso thrusted it into the Chartbound section ofthis weeks' EHR Chart (see page 29, forreview see Music & Media, November 9 1996page 11). The song benefits a great deal froma most enthusiastic response in most of conti-nental Europe. The reaction is especiallystrong in Germany, Poland and Italy, wherehe has been highly successful in the past. Thesong has the Scatman stamp all over it, butwhat sets it apart from its predecessors is themore prominent presence of traditional jazzelements.The second highest entry is Scooter's I'mRaving, which is actually a happy hardcorecover of Marc Cohn's Walking In Memphis.Perhaps not entirely surprisingly, the song isperforming exceptionally well in the Beneluxand Italy, where most major national net-works added the track early on. The song isthe first single taken from the Wicked album.

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 in

Europe.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.

For all artists appearing on this chart, the Country Of Signing is UK or Ireland.

MUSIC

For all artists appearing on this chart, the Country Of Signing is US, Canada or Australia.
