New CLT ServiceCompletes '89 Plans

by Ion Henley

The start of lest transmis-sions for CLT's Scandina-vian daytime radio servicenext week brings to a close ayear of aggressive expansionfor the Luxembourg -basedbroadcasting company.

Last spring, CLT's HeadOf International AffairsHenri Roemer told Music &Media (April 8) that thepan-European broadcasterwould launch new or revam-ped radio services in fourterritories before the end ofthe year. Thal is what it hasdone

In April, CLT broughtout its West German service,RTL, giving the station apotential audience of 15

million. In September, At-lantic 252, the Dublin -basedlong -wave commercial sta-tion aimed at much of theUK, hit the airwayes andlast month Maxximum FM,a Paris -based FM networkbought earlier in the year (asAventure FM) by CLT'sFrench RTL subsidiary, was

launched.Now Radio Luxembourg,

the 55 -year -old UK radioservice also owned by CLT,is bringing outs Scandina-vian service - sharing anAltos transponder with yetanother new CLT venture,Dutch -language commercialTV station RTL/Veronique

Radio Luxembourg Mana-ging Director Maurice Vass:"Adding the possibility ofsatellite reception to the mis-ting service is frankly not soimportant -it will be nice fordish owners to hear us in FMstereo, but that's about it.

"The really exciting thingis the cable radio market inScandinavia The success of.Holland based Sky Radioconvinces us there's a lot tobe said for a heavily music -based radio station aimedspecifically at Scandinavia.

French IndustryTurnover Up 35%

by Emmanuel lagrend & Chris Fuller

The French music industryhas registered a 35.2% in-crease in turnover for thefirst nine months of 1989,reaching Ffr 3.2 billion (app

3(0 million). This com-pares to Ffr 2.3 billion forthe same period last year.

CDs took the major shareof the market, scoring a

62.7% increase over 1988 atFfr 13 billion. Tummer forcassettes grew by 50.6%.

Patrice Fichet, DirectorGeneral of French industrybody SNEP, attributes theincreases to several factors.They include the govern-ment's decision last

December to lower the taxrate for records and tap.from 33% to 18.6% and itsapproval of TV advertisingfor records, plus the rise inpopularity of portable CDPlayers.

Fichet: "The industry hasresponded well to the newopportunities. The figuresprove we are able to exploitour O. market, but thepriority now is to step up theexport of French music'

SNEP predicts stronggrowth for newer formatssuch as CD singles and CDVideo, though CDV is at pre-sent hindered by a 25% taxrate Fiche.. "We will ask thegovernment to lower the rate,preferably to 113.6.M'

In terms of units, the

figures show cassettes as the

major soundcarrier withsales of 27.5 million units(up 383%), followed by CDswith 23.5 million (up66.8%). And the vinyl for-mats continue their descent -singl. dropped by 15.4% to25.1 million units, while sales

of LPs fell 7.1% to II million.

Philips To Sell20%Of PolyGramFuller

Amsterdam - Following monthsof speculation, the Dutch elec-tronics giant Philips has confirm-ed it plans to float 20% ofPolyGram. The share sale is ex-pected to raise around Dfl I

billion (app. f 308.6 million) andfollows PolyGram's acquisition ofIsland and A&M, which togethercost en estimated US$ 800million.

Philips will be seeking a listingfor the PolyGram shares on theNew York and Amsterdam stockexchanges. In anticipation of thisit plans to publish a share pro-spectus in a few weeks butdeclines, at present, to offer fur-

ther details on the sale.Philips has also disclosed that it

recently bought back the 10% ofPolyGram that it sold to an un-named bank in 1987, so that itnow owns the whole company. In1987, Philips revealed plans to sell20% of PolyGram but they werescrapped after that year's Octoberstock market crash.

PolyGram, which expects salesof more than Dfl 4 billion (app. £1.23 billion) this year has 15% ofthe world record market, in-cluding 45% of the classicalrecord sales through its DeutscheGrammophon, Decca and Philipslabels. 0

Diamond Awards Focuses On 1992by Karen Holt

An EC presentation on Europeanmedia in 1992 will be one of thehighlights of the DiamondAwards Seminars (November 16)in Antwerp, which this year willdevote special attention to thetheme of rights and copyright inmusic visuals.

Organised in connection withthe Diamond ProfessionalAwards, which recognise outstan-ding achievement in MusicPhotography, Videos and SleeveDesign, the seminars annually ad-dress issues of critical importanceto those who give contemporarymusic its visual image

S. Munoz Gomez, EC Ad-ministrator of Media '92, will

deliver a speech on the impactthat European unification will

have on the Continent's audiovisual landscape, with particularemphasis on programming andbudget.

Other seminar topics include'Looking At Music', 'Listening ToVisuals', a discussion on the valueof image in promotion versus thebudget allocated and on 'VisualCopyright - Is It Necessary, Is ItFeasible?'.

Panellists include Martin Smith(PMI), David Redfern (PresidentBritish Association of PhotoLibraries & Agencies), RudiDolezal (DoRo Productions),Robert Ellis (Repfoto), IanWiener (MD Wienerworld), RobMarinussen (Photographer OfThe Year 1988) and sleevedesigner Roger Dean.

European megastore because ofFrance's similarities with the UKin terms of the size and the impor-tance of the capital in relation toother cities. Record sales in boththe UK and France indicate thatthe emergence of megastores hasincreased the overall recordmarket.

Virgin intends to develop itsFrench operations along UK linesbut Pennington points out thatthe new Milan outlet andmegastores elsewhere will

acknowledge local needs. "Coun-tries like West Germany and Italyhave different urban distributionsto the UK and we will be takingthis into account when we put ourstrategies into practice;' says Pen-nington.

BSB Signs Palace Contractby Hugh Fisher

British Satellite Broadcasting(BSB) has signed a f 30 milliondeal with Palace Television tosupply the programming for itsPower Station music channel.Under the agreement, which runsfor five years, Palace will beresponsible for the bulk of the sta-tion's output.

BSB has also appointedEurAm, a joint venture betweenRadio Vision International andElephant House Productions, toprovide special programmes andlive concerts.

Although music videos andpromos will form a large part ofthe Power Station's output BSBsays it will not "be playing wall-to-wall videos like MTV.

"The Power Station will bespecifically targetted at the UKyouth market and will besegmented into programmesalong the lines of BBC Radio 1 or

Capital Radio. The Ws will havetheir own identities and they willbe encouraged to present aneighbourly image that will ap-peal to the teenage audience'

Although the Power Station'sbudget represents about oneseventh of the E 220 million BSBhas allocated to cover the firstyear's running costs across its fivechannels, it is considerably morethan MTV's budget.

However, an MTV spokesmansays the amount of money spenton a programme was sot impor-tant. "You can not buy creativitywith money. We have proved thatyou can get good results with asmall budget!'

After several delays andtechnical problems BSB is plann-ing to launch its service nextMarch. The Power Station will beon air for up to 18 hours a day. E

ITV Contracts Can Go AbroadThere will be nothing to preventEuropean Community companiescontrolling the UK's independentTV (ITV) contracts after 1992 ac-cording to a recent announcementfrom the Home Office Ministerresponsible for broadcasting,Timothy Renton.

Under the Treaty Of Rome, ECcompanies cannot be preventedfrom acquiring controlling stakesin any of the 17 10 -year franchisesdue to be auctioned in 1992. Thegovernment had previously con-sidered attempting to limit ECcompanies' holdings in ITV fran-chises to 25%.

However, foreign companieswill have to convince the new In-dependent TV Commission

(ITC), which will be responsiblefor allocating the licences, dratthey can comply with the fran-chise obligations. These includeproviding regional programming,a requirement foreign companieswould find difficult without hir-ing or buying UK regional pro-duction houses.

Since Renton's statement lastmonth, one of the the most suc-cessful ITV companies - London -based Thames TV - is believed tohave held talks with Luxem-bourg's pan-European broad-casting concern CLT with a viewto preparing a joint bid for thelucrative London licence. AThames spokesman would neitherconfirm nor deny the speculation.

UK & IRELANDUK Promoter Praises Radio AdsRadio stations- particularly thosewith split frequencies - are in-creasingly cost effective for adver-tising pop concerts, according toUK promoter Tim Parsons atMCP.

Parsons "Our experiences in1989 with Bryan Ferry, SimplyRed, the Beach Boys, Erasure,Motley Crue and Chris Rea haveproved that advertising and co -promoting with radio producesbetter results than advertising inthe quality press.

"A co -promotion campaign onLondon's Capital Radio for fourspots per day, at £ 3.000 over amonth, gives better results thantwo £ 1.500 advertisements in a

national newspaper!"MCP, one of the country's

leading promoters, first becameaware of the potential of radiopromotion when it advertisedBryan Ferry's Wembley Arenashows at the beginning of thisyear.

Parsons: "We only had a shorttime to sell the show and the boxoffice was provided with a ticksheet to find out how peopleheard about the concerts. CapitalRadio accounted for half theticket sales.

"As well as this we co -promo-ted the Beach Boys concert onCapital Gold with good results.The station's FM programming

Analysts Advise CautionFor Radio InvestorsA report by an independentLondon -based financial analystsays shares in private radio maystill be a good buy, but also offerssome cautious advice to potentialinvestors.

Published by Barclays De ZoeteWedd (BZW), it compliments lastmonth's Hoare Govett report(M&M October 21), which claim-ed that shares in many indepen-dent radio (IR) stations ass under-valued.

BZW's 'Independent LocalRadio - Chang. And Oppor-tunities' says deregulation willmean IR stations could offer"good buying opportunities forinvestors looking for long-termrepresentation in this sector".

The report focuses on severalmajor IR stations and ownershipgroups, and recommends CapitalRadio, Crown Communicationsand the GWR Group as par-ticularly good investments.

BZW says Crown, with itsbroad base of radio and TV in-terests, is "well placed to benefitfrom radio deregulation and the

growing TV production market".GWR is recommended because ofits convenience to those adver-tisers who wish to target the 'M4corridor' - home to the UK's pro-sperous hi -tech industries.

BZW believes the group'sshares hold good medium to long-term prospects. Capital is regard-ed as a "core holding ahead ofderegulation" because of thestrength of its listening audiencein the Greater London area.

Despite its optimistic forecastfor recommended buys, BZWalso suggests that potential in-vestors should be cautious.

While advertising growth for1989 is forecast at 16.1o, the reportpoints out that "advertisingrevenue can be volatile".

The study notes that during1988 all the quoted radio stocksoutperformed the market by100% and warns: "In view of thishistorical outperformance, cur-rent high interest rates and in-creasing competition in thefuture, we have to consider thequestion - is it too late to buy? C

The album went straight intothe UK top 20 in its fast week ofrelease and the tom: is close to sell-

including London's Hammer-smith Odeon.

Atari supplied keyboards andsoftware to Fordham and herband and its logo is featured ontickets, posters, programmes andconcert advertisements.

sary we wanted it to be special.There was general agreement thatthe emerging talent section, whichwas introduced last year, wasn'tneeded!'

w National commercial TV stationsin Holland will have to pay up to15% of advertising revenue for ac-cess to the country's cable net-works, if a draft amendment tothe Media Law gets governmentapproval.

The amendment - which wasdrawn up by Culture MinisterEelco Brinkman - was circulatedto the Media Commission, publicbroadcasters' organisation NOSand major publishers at the endof October.

It says the stations will have tocontribute to a national fund,which will compensate the pressfor any loss of advertising income.And it suggests publishers shouldbe allowed to own a stake of up to30% in a commercial station. Ifthey do, they will lose any right topayments from the press fund andto the compensation they current-ly receive from the state TV adver-tising facility, STER.

Brinkman says publishers suchas Elsevier, VNU and the

SIBESA To Sign PrivateBroadcast Fee AgreementBelgian industry organisationSIBESA (IFPI Belgium) hasreached an agreement with privatenetwork Radio Contact over theso-called 'broadcast fee'. Thedeal, for an undisclosed sum, wasdrawn up at a SIBESA boardmeeting on October 26.

The idea of a broadcast -fee wasfirst put to the private stations inearly 1987 and met with strongresistance. As a result SIBESAmembers stopped supplying sam-ple records, interviews and infor-mation on new releases to the 25major private radio companies inBelgium.

State broadcasters RTBF andBRT have been paying a broad-cast fee since 1954.

The agreement between

SIBESA and Radio Contact andfuture partner RFM will be signedshortly. The network will pay abroadcast fee, although the exactamount has not been released.

In return it will recieve samplerecords, posters, and promotionalmaterial and be allowed to con-duct interviews. Radio Contacthas also negotiated the right toconclude separate deals with in-dividual record companies ifnecessary.

After a debut album that sold ternational considerations. Now,150.000 copies in Scandinavia,Dance With A Stranger are nowpoised for a major assault on theinternational market. Their se-cond LP, To (Norsk IDK 7), wasreleased in Norway on November

The band recently signed toBonet for Sweden and Denmarkbut, due to that company's hecticpre -Christmas schedule the albumwill not be released in those twoterritories until January.

Barry Matheson, President ofContinental Consult - the band'smanagement company: "We weredetermined to consolidate theirpopularity at home before any in -

with the new record, we feel thetime is right to take the plunge butgoing international from Norwayis never easy"

This month, Matheson is

visiting the US and the UK, where

the band's sophisticated, soul -

tinged rock could stand alongsidethe likes of Paul Carrack, MichaelBolton and Joe Cocker.

A number of internationalcompanies, believing in the poten-tial of Dance With A Stranger,have been asking to see Mathesonsince early 1988 when the self -titled debut LP was released. Nowthat those negotiations are underway it may only be a matter oftime before Dance With AStranger take their place along-side A -Ha and One 2 Many. El

Davout & Du ChesnayBroaden Appeal

This month, to coincide with Music & Media'sfeature on France, we look at the newly refur-bished Studio Devout in Paris and the net-work of Du Chesnay Studios throughout thecountry.

For years Studio Davout in Paris has beenrecognised as the home for French sound-track, More than 1,000 movie scores wererecorded at Davout, including Bertrand laver.nier's Round Midnight featuring Dexter Gor-don and Herbie Hancock (who eventuallywon an Oscar for the soundtrack). Last year,the studio was bought by publishers Evelyne &Paul PHU and since then it has undergone ex-tensive changes.

Studio Manager Olivier Kowalski: "Thestudios have been completely renovated. Wehave created a rest area with a bar, hired a full-time technician and changed some of theequipment. We have tried to attract a new typeof client, particularly through the newerlabels, like Barclay, Virgin, Wanted andSquatt!'

Davout has three studio rooms. The biggestis Studio A which has a nine metre high ceilingand 300 square metres of floor space Studio Band M (a marble room) both average 60square mares.

An SSL 64 was installed recently in studio Band a New 48 will be acquired soon for StudioA. Daily rates are Ffr 8.500 (app. f 825) forStudio A (Ffr 11.500 for lock -out), Ffr 9.500for Studio B (Ffr 12.500 for lock -out) and Ffr11.500 for Studio M (Ffr 13.000 for a

its acts, including Ray Lana and Safif Keita.Kowalski: "Production of records has

changed in recent years. More and more musi-cians are chosing to play fewer electronic andmore natural instruments, preferring a livesound. Partly because of this, large studios areonce again proving popular.

Devout is expanding its activities in the pro-duction field. A label has been created andwill be distributed by Vogue The Studio hasproduced the new album by Nicolas Peyracand has licensed it to Wanted.

Studio Du Chesney is one of Europe's fewstudio chains. The network was created byPhilippe Besombes, owner of the VersaillesStation Studio in Paris. Using it as his base,Besombes has created a network whichoperates through a series of franchisingagreements. Three studios in Lyon, Strasbourgand Nantes make up the chain.

Nathalie Noguera, Head Of Communica-riot* for the network: "The franchisingsystem allows us to create an energy betweenthe various studios. All of them have a stan-dard image through national advertising cam-paigns and from our technical expertise Thissort of system also allows us to get the bestprices for new equipment!'

The Versailles studio offers a 32 -track SSLdesk, a Mitsubishi X850 32 -track digitalrecorder and a 24 -track Saje Odyssey desklinked to an Otani MX 80. The daily rate is Ffr8.500. Recent Versailles clients include ShareKunda, and Frederic Chateau.

The Du Chesnay priority next year will be toinvest in new digital equipment for the Lyonsfacility. Nognerat "The market is growing fastin Lyon - there is a new generation of bands,like CAffaire Louis Trio, who want to makemusic in their home town!' Ii

Paul SimpsonEverybody's A Star - Cooks,.Apart from the previous singleMusical Deedom, this is the onlyother good track on Simpson'sdisappointing debut LP One.

Regina BelleGood Lovirt - CH

Terence Trent D'ArbyThis Side Of love - CBS

An uncompromising productionwithout bass guitar - a verystrong track. It will be interestingto see how radio reacts to this.

One 2 ManyWilting On The Wall - ABMA bombastic and romantic popsong in a Queen mould from thispromising Norwegian trio.

ALBUMALBUM OF THE WEEKThe Lilac TimeParadise Crcus - Fontana

The second LP by the Stephen Duf-fy fronted six -piece is instantlylikeable but at the same time it hasgenuine depth The whole thing fitstogether well - the gentle harmonies,lilting mnes and tranquil vocalscombine to make this a highly ac-

complished record. Congratulations to Duffy who wrote practicallyevery track and co -produced. Bane The Days Of The Week The LostGirl In The Midnight Sun and Work For The Weekend.

Curiosity Killed The CatGetahead - Mem,Dismissed by some as pop victimsbut regarded by others as the bestto come out of the Soho nightclubscene this band have delivered astorming second LP.

Under Neath WhatWhat Is It- WEAThe 12 songs that make up thisLP form a fine although ratherone-dimensional example ofwhat this three-piece cult bandare particularly good at - noisy,no-nonsense guitar rock. Apartfrom an interesting cover of theStones' /000 Light Years FromHome, check out StraightAhead Money (Peace Dub.

Deborah HarryDe/Dumb & Blonde - Clemons

Harry is back with a sparklingpop LP, strong enough to cornpets with the best of Blondie. Indeed, longtime partner ChriStein has joined in again, as welas veteran producer Mike Chap-man. There are also a few contributions from the Thompsonleans, who wrote the currentsingle I Want That Man.

Mark Knopfler/GuyFletcherLast Ink To Brooklyn - KatoThe OST of Uli Edel's film isperformed by Dire Straits' key-board player Fletcher. This in-strumental LP was composedand produced by band -mateKnopf, who has become oneof the most prolific OST-writersof the last few years. The LP'smain emphasis is on stately, syn-thesized pieces with a classicalflavour.

George ClintonGeorge Cleton Presents - Our Gang

Funky - PICA

Clinton's latest comeback is nogreat stylistic departure The songsare still long, funky and full oftribal chants - unfortunately theyare also notably low on ideas.

Laurie AndersonStrange Angels - Warner Brothers

Anderson is always at her bestwhen she combines her artistictemperament with an orthodoxformat. Here she does mealythat - and she does it brilliantly.Her crystal-clear voice is suppor-ted by Mike Thome, Arto Lind-say and Peter Scherer amongothers and the result is a highlyentertaining record that still hasan element of risk about it. Best:Monkey's Paw, Beautiful RedDress and The Day The Deed.

Rainhard FendrichVon al, a Zeit - BMG Arida

Austria's most popular perfor-mer and biggest musical exportmakes an AC noise somethinglike Cliff Richard or HerbertGroenemeyer. The songs areeconomically arranged, melodicand really rather classy.

SPOTLIGHTBros Take Time In Europe

by Sally trarton

Bros are about to begin athree-week promotional

tour of Europe topublicise the release oftheir latest album 'TheTime' on CBS. The LP

features the currentsingle 'Chocolate Box:

their seventh successiveUK top 10 hit.

When Bros played at Lon-don's Wembley Stadium

in August they had a surprisinglyhard deal from the UK press whocarried stories about poor ticketsales only days after carrying en-thusiastic features on the band.

According to the duo's mana-ger Tom Watkins of MassiveManagement "It is typical ofthe media here to buildsomething up and then knock it.There were 63.000 people at thatconcert and you only have tolook at the video and TerenceDonovan's photographs to seehow much they enjoyed it:'

There are plenty of statisticsthat prove Bros' phenomenalpopularity. They have just releas-ed their second album, TheTime, across Europe; it wentplatinum in the UK in the firstweek and entered the album chartat no. 4. The current singleChocolate Box is their seventhsuccessive top 10 hit in the UKsince the beginning of last year.The first LP Push sold 2.5million copies worldwide (1.2million of those in the UK) andtheir video 'The Big Push Tour'has sold nearly 250.000 unitsmaking it CBS UK's biggest evervideo release

Just turned 21, the London -based Goss twins Matt and Lukeseem confident enough to copewith their early success and theyappear to enjoy being teen idols.However, the teenage market isnotoriously volatile and evenCBS admits that UK fans arenow ready to move on to newheroes. "The teen bubble hasburst here in the UV says thecompany's Maurice Shneider."We knew that months ago whenthere was no more graffitti beingadded to the walls at CBS!"

Those walls will be sand-blasted just as they were afterWham! fans besieged thebuilding. In fact, GeorgeMichael's international success

as a solo artist is something therecord company would like toemulate with Bros.

Bros have just returned from a

successful tour of the US as partof a nine -piece band supportingDebbie Gibson with a 35 -minuteset. The record company an-ticipates this will boost the duo'salbum sales by between 200.000and 300.000 units across thecountry.

In a8 territories their image asgood-looking, clean -living boysis still very important. "They arehighly professional when dealingwith the media and they alwayslook the part:' says Shneider.

Having spent several weekswith Bros in the US, Shneider is

making plans to take them acrossEurope for three weeks of pro-

otion later this month.

Chocolate Box will be followedby a third release from The Time,titled Sister. The song, like the

entire album, is dedicated toCarolyn, the step -sister of theBros twins who died recently in aroad accident.

Tom Watkins, who helpedbring fame to the Pet Shop Boys,took on Bros as a teenage trio -third member Craig Logan leftearlier this year due to illness and'musical differences'. Many peo-ple in the industry believeWatkins is responsible for thesuccess of Bros. Watkins: "I amsure 1 had a lot to do with it butso did the 29 people in this office;all those at CBS; the road crew;the producer Nicky Graham and,of course, the band membersthemselves. We are all part of ateam:' 0

The Nits Celebrate 15th AnniversaryThe success of Dutch

band The Nits is due to"old-fashioned artist

development" accordingto Gerard Rothe, Senior

Product Manager CBSHolland. The band arecurrently celebrating

their 15th anniversarywith the release of theirfirst lire album, 'URKt

pre-release sales figures forURK, the group's 10th LP

for CBS, exceeded 28.000 unitsand in Holland a limited edition112 page magazine is beingdistributed with selected copiesof the album.

The first single is a live -versionof Adieu Sweet Bahnhoj and issupported by a video shot mainlyon board the Amsterdam to Paristrain.

MTV has plans for an inter-view with lead vocalist andguitarist Henk Hofstede jut:part of the band's extensive pro-motion plans. "MTV News hasalready paid attention to URK:'says Gerard Rothe "The Frenchshow 'Rapido' - which is alsoaired in the UK, West Germanyand Holland -is recording part ofa concert and doing a Nils' inter-view. The band have already beenseen promoting the new albumon Finnish TV and on RTL-Veroniquer

Although critically acclaimedsince their early days, and suc-

by Rotsteeg

cessful with occasional singles,The Nits only became a majorband in Holland in 1987 throughthe In The Dutch Mountainsalbum.

Since then, CBS and The Nitshave developed a conscious step-by-step policy to conquer onenew territory per album. Rothe,"With In The Dutch Mountainswe chose to target West Germanyand set up an extensive nationaltour. In consultation with CBSWest Germany we launchedvarious promotional activitieswhich resulted in a top 30 single

with In The Dutch Mountains.The album also charted and soldapproximately 200,000 units inEurope. It was also voted amongthe best 50 albums of the year byQ magazine

The 1988 album, Hat sold150.000 units in Europe andFrance was the target territory.Earlier this year The Nits per-

Moscow and now they are look-ing to break into the US market.

Rothe: "The Nits are nowready for the US. We are startingto look for a record companywhich is prepared to make a long-term investment in the band.

After finishing their currentEuropean tour with a charity -concert in Amsterdam onDecember 30, The Nits want to

take six months off tom inuringand devote time to individualprojects and a new studio albumwhich is scheduled for nextSeptember.

Counting TheCostel

Of TV Campaignsby Emmanu Legrand

From May 1988 - when TV advertising was given thego-ahead in France - until May this year, the French

musk industry spent about Ffr 300 million on 141 TVcampaigns, according to Jean -Paul Bessieres, Head Of

Market Research at EMI/Pathe. The first majorcampaign, for an Edith Piaf compilation, saw 600.000

LPs sold for a Ffr 4 million.investment. It was followedby Barclay's Ffr 5 million campaign for the

Jacques Brel compilation, which sold 680.000 units.Bessieres: "TV showed its power and the

music industry responded accordingly."

The number of campaigns issoaring to such a degreethat record companies are

concerned that their impact maybe reduced. Alain Artaud,Marketing Manager at Virgin:"It's terrifying - the market willnever absorb all these products.The effect of surprise has passedand there are increasing signs ofsaturation. We have to carefullywatch our investments because insome cases, even if we increasesales, the price of the campaignmatches our margin!'

Jean -Luc Lavignette, General

Manager at Arcade, adds: "TVcampaigns are good for con-

sumers but for retailers they canbe very confusing. There are toomany products that do not sell!'

PolyGram Advertising ManagerJean -Luc Bees does not sharethese worries: "I think there ismore than enough room for whatwe are all doing. This year therewill be only be about 30 majorcampaigns with the rest beingmore targetted!'

was PolyGram. Is was followed byCBS, WEA, EMI, Carrere, BMG,Arcade, AB, Virgin and Vogue.Most of the investment was spent011 France's first TV channel TFI(68%), followed by La Cinq(15th), Canal Plus (9%), Antenne2 (4%), M6 (3%) and FR3 (I%)

Four types of products are pro-moted through TV: artist com-pilations (such as EMI's Piaf,Barclay's Biel, Phonogram'sMoney For Nothing by DireStraits or WEA's Eagles compila-tion); new releases (Virgin's Jean-Louis Murat, CBS' Sade andPolyGram's Texas); hit compila-tions (CBS' Boulevard Des Hits,PolyGram's Folystar, BMG/EMI/Virgin's Top Des Tops) andthematic compilations.

According to the EMI study byBessieres, 52% of the moneyspent on TV advertising is used topromote new releases, 18% forThematic compilations, 15°A forartist compilations, 8.7o forclassical records and 7% for hitcompilations.

"There's no longer a major album without aTV campaign. Some artists now insist on TVcampaigns in their contracts,"Philippe Desindes

At BMG, Marketing ManagerPhilippe Desindes says TV adver-tising has brought a non categoryof consumers to stores. "Thecampaigns have resulted in

retailers realising that records canprovide significant turnover, sosome of the chains are dedicatingmore space to the product.There's no longer a major albumwithout a TV campaign. Some ar-tists now insist on TV campaignsin their contracts:'

According to SECODIP, a

company that analyses advertis-ing expenditures, the biggest

spender from May 88 to May 89

Arcade and Carrot have so farspecialised in thematic and hitcompilations while Virgin, BMGand Phonogram have focused onnew releases. Polydor, CBS andEMI promote a variety ofproduct.

The high cost of TV advertisinghas forced some companies tolook at alternative ways of payingfor airtime. For instance, EMI'sPiaf campaign saw TV companiesreceive a percentage of recordsales from a particular timeperiod in return for advertisingspa.

Since then, most companies

have adopted a similar systemalthough some, like Pianola, donot approve of such close linkswith TV channels. Managing

Director Philippe Renaux:

"When a product is good and welltargetted there is absolutely noneed to use that system. I'd ratherbuy advertising space directly andnegotiate the rates with the chan-nel:'

Arcade is another companyreluctant to do percentage dealsith TV stations. Jean -ice

Lavimmtte: "My budget, of Ffr 30million for 1989, is not importantenough to negotiate good dealswith the channels, so I prefer tohave the security of an agency that

"As the market becomes more and moresaturated it will only be the most creative cam-paigns that will have any impact;' Alain Artaud

negotiates global deals on ourbehalf. We use Saatchi and Saat-chi and are happy with the presentsystem. I prefer to pay and toknow exactly what I am payingfoe'

PolyGram's Jean -Luc Bees:

"The problem with TV advertis-ing is always going to be the ex-pense Ewes the smaller com-panies are expected to put productin stores with the help of a TVcampaign. The majors, in somecases, are able to meet the costsbut it is difficult for the in-dependents. They would be betteroff joining forces and negotiatingas one body. The more volumeand power you have as a com-pany, or group of companies, thebetter the deal!"

Virgin's Main Artaud pointsout that the cost of the campaignsdemands good results: "A cam-paign succeeds when a series ofdifferent fads come together well.The choice of the product and thetiming are both crucial aspects ofmaximising the marketing im-pact. These two points, coupledwith the quality of the spot andoverall media planning will deter-mine whether the money has beenwell -spent or not.

"As the market becomes moreand more saturated it will only bethe most creative campaigns thatwill have any impact. In the 90s,creativity will be the key!'

Tuning In To Public DemandRadios use surveys in the compilation of playlists

byfacqueme Eacott

In August, FM radios Skyrock and Europe 2 eachbegan asking the public to help them compile their

playlists. It is common practice in the US, but inFrance it is a controversial novelty. Record companyinvolvement has fuelled criticism of the surveys, butthe stations defend them as providing a better guide

to what listeners want.

kyrock's Programme Di-rector Laurent Bouneausays the surveys are revolu-

tionising French radio: "Before itwas radio for the DJs - they werethe ones choosing the records.And then there was radio for pro-grammers, whose programmingdepended on what they liked andhow the discs were doing at a saleslevel. Now it is radio for listeners;we program the discs that ourlisteners like

"It is a work method that isvery revolutionary for French

the most reliable guide to ourlisteners' tastes. Before, the higher

rotation records were those withthe best sales, while those with alower rotation tended to be newreleases. But the best selling discsare not necessarily those that themajority of people want to heart'

Bouneau acknowledges thatthis has led to problems withrecord companies. "When theplaylist was based on the bestsales our centres of interest werecloser. The record company wantsto sell records, we want to play

radio and one which is going toaffect all the media because, at the

moment, we do not pay enoughattention to listener needs.

Bouneau says Skyrock, one ofFrance's top FM networks, tele-phones a minimum of around 300people in its 15-25 year -old targetaudience every week. A part of atrack is played and then listenersare asked to give their opinionsThey are not told the name of theartist or the disc, and Skyrock isnot identified as the caller.

Bouneau then uses the informa-tion to help compile the playlistwhich, as a result, now includesfewer top 50 tracks.

Houma. "For me the panel is

records that our listeners like. Butthe listeners are not necessarilyrecord buyers. Relations with therecord companies are more dif-ficult note]'

The situation has been furthercomplicated by Skyrock's deci-sion to team up with CBS, whichco -finances the project. CBSRadio Promoter Pascal Negro"We pay a small amount toSkyrock and in exchange wereceive all the mulls concemingCBS artists!'

Il=11Europe 2 works with Poly -

Gram, but on a different basis tothe Skyrock/CBS deal. Garcia:"We decided not to sell exclusive -

"The best selling discs are not necessarily thosethat the majority of people want to hear,"Laurent Bouneau, Skyrock

Negre acknowledges that thesize of the polls limits the use oftheir findings. "The panel is likeMedia Control, it is a guide.Radio stations which use thepanel like an automatic pilotmake a very big mistake.

"All radios will eventually usepanels. We are seeing a revolutionin radio in terms of our ways ofworking. The record companiesare changing their functions ac-cordingly?

At Europe 2, which is challeng-ing NRJ's title as France's top FMnetwork, some 300 different peo-ple are surveyed each week. Theyare invited to attend sessions

where tracks are played and theyare then asked to complete a ques-tionnaire.

Programme Director MarcGarcia: "Telephone interviews aresuited to a younger audience andPM stations like Skyrock whoneed an immediate answer. Ouraudience is older. However the ap-proach is virtually the same Thelisteners know the title but not theradio or the name of the artist!'

ly to one record company. If arecord company is interested insome particular data, on compila-tions for example, then we will sellthem that data.

"We have worked with Poly -Gram on that principle we did itfor the Rolling Stones and forJohnny Hallyday. But we are alsonegotiating with other recordcompanies such as Virgin. Wewant to fight against the idea ofselling exclusively to one partner.It would be a pity to exchange thedictatorship of the top 50 for thatof a panel"
