Generic Taglines in Radio have been used since the beginning of time, we all know them and hear them in every market, every single day. In recent weeks, I have been listening to stations from across the globe to get a better understanding of how they are presenting their messaging. A lot of these terms have been used since the 1970s and haven’t changed since.

Sound Design was something I was always interested in, before I even knew what the term meant. I began messing with sounds when I got my first stereo at the age of 8. I used to record sounds on my Talkboy (click on the link if you don’t know what it is. A few years ago I pitched an album …

My interest in Sound Design began years before I started in Radio – I used to search for videos on YouTube of Movie Sound Design and then discovered foley – it blew my mind.

Over the past few months, I’ve been toning down the use of Sound Design and unnatural or over the top Sound Effects to tell stories. I think Audio Branding and Radio Imaging needs to evolve from where it once was, being “BIG” and “Hot”. I am hearing a lot of stations really going overboard with effects and the message has …

March 2021 featured some of my most creative work. In particular, coming up with new and fresh ways to “sell” new features and shows. I really enjoyed the creative scope this month – with a lot of these concepts coming directly from me.

To say January 2021 was a busy month is probably a massive understatement. In December 2020, I began working on the rebrand for Diplo’s own Radio Channel “Diplo’s Revolution“. If you work in Audio Branding, I am sure you can appreciate how a rebrand can make things super busy. The brand new Voice Talent for the channel is Peta Briscoe, a …

Radio Imaging is a bracket term for the role that involves the audio Branding Radio Stations and sets the tone for the feel of the station. I had started phasing out the term on my website and social channels because it is an insider-term. Do you know anyone outside of Radio who knows the term or would understand your job title …

I am delighted after months of planning, producing and finalising – my brand new album is here. I have been working with the guys at Audiosweets to create a brand new ASX Softees album. The intention with the album is to give more choice of sounds to producers and stations. While most products currently on the market are very loud, …

I can’t believe we’re already closing out 2020 – but I am sure we’re all excited for hopefully a better year ahead. SiriusXM moved quickly at the beginning of the year, moving Producers, Voice Artists, Presenters, Programme Directors to remote setups. Luckily, I had been based at home already for a few years so the transition wasn’t a massive one …

I was going through a bunch of old files – including written speeches, audio and photos from conferences I’ve attended over the years – and was reminded of the time I was asked to be on “The Producers Podcast” which is hosted by Ryan Drean. When I started out in the industry, I used Ryan’s Podcast resource to gain experience …
