Jinglefied 1 Report post Posted October 3 Hi all, I am looking to obtain some Newsbeat packages particularly from 2004 onwards. I only have 2003 as a full package and nothing else, which is why I thought I would start this thread where not only I can request but others can too so that they’re not left out either. And that they too can have a helping hand on finding Newsbeat packages. Anyway, if anyone could help, I would be thankful. PS: I don’t know if anyone else has noticed but the Music4 website doesn’t look to be functioning probably which means that you can’t view any of their work, this has been going on for sometime now and I can’t work out why. I have tried to get in touch with someone at Music4 but have had no luck. If anyone here knows someone who works in or is associated with Music4, could they get in touch with them to see what’s going on? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OohErr 229 Report post Posted October 4 Haven't got round to replying to your PM yet but I have a few things you're after, I have a fair bit of 2008, 2011 and 2015. The stuff from the early to mid naughties seems harder to track down, I've been trying for ages, but I have bits and pieces. As for the Music4 website, I don't think anybody will be getting back to you any time soon... https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-5054455/Former-Radio-1-producer-guilty-child-sex-charges.html Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jinglefied 1 Report post Posted October 5 Yes, I would be interested in those. Shame about Music 4 then, it was a good site while it lasted. Don’t why someone that successful would go off and throw it all away like that. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JingleGeek 2 Report post Posted October 9 Also looking for the 2017 theme! Can someone help?! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JingleGeek 2 Report post Posted October 10 That's the same two I've got! Surely it's out there somewhere? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OohErr 229 Report post Posted October 10 Ha! Probably the same two I've sent you both. Dan Mumford made this one, and he's never put any demos out there, so short of getting someone who works at R1 to leak it or asking him personally, not sure how else to get it. 1 Jinglefied reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JingleGeek 2 Report post Posted Sunday at 09:03 AM I messaged him on SoundCloud and emailed newsbeat...not expecting a response but you don't get if you don't ask I guess! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jinglefied 1 Report post Posted Sunday at 09:21 AM I’ve emailed him too and I too am pretty much expecting the same outlook. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

forde52 39 Report post Posted Sunday at 08:02 PM I have a couple of bits on top of that, such as the Headlines bed and the 1Xtra intro, but that's about it. Does seem very difficult to get hold of. I messaged Dan once regarding the old 2015 package as I don't have any of that one, as that was quite a large jingle package for newsbeat, so many different beds that only saw the light of day once or twice. Never had a response. But in fairness, he's probably really busy producing etc! 1 JingleGeek reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OohErr 229 Report post Posted Sunday at 08:10 PM I also imagine certain producers might be quite protective of their work - either because they don't want to give it out for free, or aren't legally allowed to in case it ends up on some internet station that don't have the rights to use them. I'm sure some are lovely and willing to indulge us, but probably not all. Also they're busy, when you're freelance time is money. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
