A half package of ramps, stagers and shotguns anchored with the Weather, Morning and Top of Hour themes are all sounding great on air.  Moose Country Weather, 94-5 The Moose, Jim & Jodi – The Moose Morning Show and The Moose – Great Lakes, Bay Region have never sounded so good.

Here’s a montage of the cuts… Enjoy.

Our new Heart radio jingles for London and the sister stations all around the country are now live on-air and sounding neater, brighter and tighter than ever before.

The new package features the three note musical logo that the network is famous for signaling ‘London’s Heart’ in the capital city and ‘This is Heart’ around the UK.  All cuts are sung both ways with a new tighter vocal sound that really sets this package apart from anything else in the market.

Over the years our Heart packages have featured a double sing ‘This is Heart – London’s Heart’.  For our new 2012 package the double sing is replaced by a single in order to speed up the pace and move the flow of the station to a new level.

As always with our Heart packages, a huge amount of time and detail have gone into the tracks and the vocals.  Working with the team at Global Radio day in and day out, we have been able to tailor a set of cuts that continue to define the sound of the station in the strongest way possible.

We are really proud of the fact that our Heart package is more than a selection of synth based cuts – The team at Global always encourage and give us the time and space to develop each track in the fullest way possible resulting in complex, real brass & horn arrangements as well as an array of other authentic instrumentation.

We would like to thank everyone at Global Radio (you know who you are) who have been a vital part of making this package so fantastic!  We are thrilled with the results and happy to continue with a legacy which offers arguably the most defined and consistent station image in UK commercial radio.

RMF FM – 2011 Demo

We’ve produced a number of re-sings of the various Heart packages over the years and this one is proving to be one of our favorites. The folks calling the shots at the Beat wanted the singers to deviate from the 3 note melody logo – Letting things unfold in a more adlib fashion.

The results highlight a new dimension to where this package can be taken vocally. We think it’s a perfect fit for 925 The Beat and wish our friends up north every success with their new station.

Here’s a few words straight from the horse’s mouth…

As we were looking to re-image our stale AC radio station into something fresh and vibrant,  one of the most challenging aspects of the procedure was finding a jingle company to work with. One that would fit all our needs. When we heard what IQ Beats were doing, we knew they would be perfect for what we were looking to achieve.

We wanted to step away from the established and expected style of jingle production and these guys got it big time. When we said we didn’t want a traditional stacked vocal sound, I could feel them smiling on the other end of the line and we took off from there.

They were willing to try anything that would enable the vocalists to freely express themselves. The resulting package is one that seamlessly flows throughout the day with the jingles feeling like they are an integrated part of the musical experience we are trying to offer our listeners and not a obligation to identify ourselves.

Great work, great talent, great results. Our re-branding is already creating a fresh new buzz on the street in Montreal and a lot of that’s due to IQ Beats!

-Mark Stafford, Creative Director

Yowzah.  Have kinder words ever been spoken?  Wethinks not.  We had a great time working with Mark and 925 The Beat as it was a truly liberating, fun and exciting experience.

Here’s a montage of all the cuts in the package

Here’s a run through of a few collected aircheck elements

The move from AM to FM exposes KXL’s 85 years of heritage to a whole new audience and provides information to them as they’ve never heard it before… With the great fidelity of the FM signal.

We are pleased and honored that this move was launched with elements from our suite of LBC packages created over the years for London’s Biggest Conversation.  Check out the packages here:  Package 3, Package 2, Package 1.

IQ Beats has developed the PERFECT sound for any FM news or talk station.  I was looking for something that got my attention without driving me away with annoying noise.  The IQ Beats package for FM talk (LBC) were a great match for our move to the FM dial.  If you want a big, classy sound, this is it.

-Brian Jennings, Director of Talk Programming

Woah.  You had us at PERFECT.  More kind words…

IQ Beats once again showed me WHY they are the best in music production and jingles!  The new KXL package they did for us has been awesome as we’ve made the switch to the FM dial!  The sound is current, smooth, clean and BIG at the same time.  It really helped to push KXL to the BIG FM in our market!!

-Byran L. Griggs, Production Director

Here’s a brief aircheck demonstrating how great the stuff is sounding on air… Enjoy!

You may know we have a bunch of amigos over in France with some of our previous work for Virgin’s hombres at Fun Radio (Package 1, Package 2, Package 3).  If you didn’t know, now you know.

We could wax poetic all day about the fine Côtes du Rhône wines we washed down our Crottin, Tome, jambon and frites with during this project, but why?  That would just make haters hate (more).

We did have a blast making this package of 12 Dance and Electro inspired cuts that come in tidy little ramps alongside stagers and shotguns.  In the end this package is simple, in your face and sounds good… Even though it is in French.  ZING!

J’ai toujours vu que pour réussir dans le monde, il fallait avoir l’air fou être sage!

Domenico Torti – Italian man in a French land

Our French is busted, but we think this may be our greatest endorsement ever.  For reals.

While we’re still basking in the Provençal glow of our Vence chateau and are too preoccupied to bother with putting the package on the main site or making a demo, check out a montage of the 12 cuts below in the meantime.  C’est la vie!

**UPDATE** – You can now HEAR THE ENTIRE PACKAGE ONLINE cut by glorious cut as well as the package demo below.

Like a proud papa, it amazes us to think that our little jingles have grown up and moved away to an exotic, far-away place.  And with an average temperature that never dips below 75 degrees Fahrenheit, you know the jingles gotta be hot.

Have a listen to the montage below.  Terima kasih, or thanks for visiting the blog.

Hard Rock Radio – Jakarta, Indonesia

FM104 is Dublin’s Hit Music Station and have selected a little more than a half-package to complement their hot mix of the latest and greatest chart-toppers such as:  Adele, Rihanna, Pink, Taio Cruz, Take That, Britney, Katy Perry, Bruno Mars and more.

Here what FM104′s production director has to say about the package:

At FM104 we sought out to find a jingle package which was different from what we had before and also to find a package which stood out in comparison to what is currently on air in the Dublin radio market.  We decided on this IQ Beats package as it sounds fresh and powerful while also carrying a retro feel.  The jingles work great with the music we play on FM104 and really jump out of the speakers, particularly at the top of hour.

Working with IQ Beats was a pleasure.  We had many requests and tweaks throughout the recordings but you made sure we were happy with everything and it sounded just right.

P.G. – Production Director, FM104 Dublin
