Newsbeat Package Thread


Jinglefied

Recommended Posts

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?

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

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!

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.

Hi ? 

Does anybody have any of the latest Newsbeat Package? I used to have a lot of content from newsbeaa but my 2009 MacBook decided to die on me ?.

Looking for the "ONE" intro, Main bed, sport etc...... Don't mind editing clips but if anybody has them already clipped up that'll be awesome!

Have you saved them on any external storage or the cloud?

I thought it was all backed up but nothing! I only have my video on YouTube of the jingles I used in the cart wall app on my phone

    • I agree Scott has always been a good standalone presenter, but always better when with someone. When chappers left the radio one show it felt a different show and Chris joining was what it needed and brought new life. for the format of the radio 2 show Scott’s show fits well with the station but again, there’s the huge gap between radio1 and 2 As been said already old radio2 listeners feel it now feels too young with latest changes, yet old radio1 listeners still feel radio 2 feels too old. The inbetween stage demographic of too old for radio 1 but too young for radio 2 is still not catered for radio 2 was left to grow old with its audience for too long and to change things up now feels to try and change a brand image the right thing to do is leave it as it is and cater for that 1.5 demographic which I’m sure the new proposed 00s and 10s station will do if approved. Problem is it’s so overdue that by the time it gets off the ground these listeners are already likely to be lost and the changing image of radio2 likely to lose what it stands for as a brand with the “it’s too young now “  moving to boom and the “ it still sounds old “ crowd not able to move with their favourite presenters like Scott so finding themself on capital a radio 1.5 would have been perfect for Scott and Chris, seems unlikely but this is why I think who branding of bbc radio needs a rethink if these new stations get off ground
    • Bank Holiday Monday Schedule 6am-10am: Arielle Free in for Greg 10am-2pm: Dean & Vicky (No Rickie, Melvin & Charlie) 2pm-6pm: Vick & Jamie (No Katie) 6pm onwards: As normal.
    • Dare I say they've sounded great this past week?  Very much gelling.  Maybe less pressure?  Seem to be having a genuinely good time and not forcing things.
    • I'm in the minority in my workplace, most of them love country music.  Me, the American, does not care for it.  That said, I haven't haaaaaated some of the country adjacent stuff that's been on the R1 playlist.  
    • The Eurovision semi finals are on from 8 to 10pm on Tuesday 7th and Thursday 9th May with Richie Anderson. That means Sara Cox in on till 8 on those days.  Saturday 11th May is Eurovision 'Super Saturday... 1-3pm Your Ultimate Abba song with Gary Davies  3-6pm Michelle Visage's Eurovision All Stars 6-8pm Eurovision Request Party with Owain Wynn Evans 8pm Eurovision Grand Final with Scott Mills and Rylan Clark  
    • It is funny because everyone thought Matt was on the way out, now he's been described as the heir to Mills.
    • Some similar names to Big Weekend.  Sabrina Carpenter, David Guetta, Perrie, Bradley Simpson, Jax Jones, Caity Baser, Benson Boone, Rudimental. David Guetta is a good name. 
    • Still Scott for me. I'm not too much into the 70s and 80s radio 2 play but do love the injection of 90s and 00s. Then Radio 2 push for all this country stuff and it not a UK thing, and I frankly don't like it. Scott's show as in features, hit and miss. I like the music police bit, but it feels like someone needs to join him. It's a shame Chappers is so busy with sports, as it feels like it could do with someone like him jumping on to help. Or a new partner. Radio 1, take or leave. Matt and Mollie are OK from what I've heard and share a good connection, but it's the playlist that throws me off. They could bring back Chris Moyles to do that show, but as soon as something like Headie One comes on with that casino keyboard produced crap. It would still be switched off from me. 
    • Reading through this thread, I don't feel quite so alone now, in thinking that Scott Mills on R2 is not a good 'fit' (even less so than on R5).  I can't quite explain why this is so - I just know it to be so.
    • Arielle has been on holiday for the last 2 weeks getting married / honeymoon.  It'll be live from this week onwards.
    • CassKidd is in for Sian on Sunday 5th May.
    • The brought to tiers feature was also very good from them. I did wonder which DJ's were going to get picked out of the hat, that could have gone one way or the other and the caller said they were very opinionated lol. Correct decision putting katie in god tier!
    • The extended Dua Lipa track from M&M was very funny. I'm hoping Matt and Mollie and Scott have a good relationship a bit like Greg and Zoe collaborate on-air sometimes.
    • Gary Davies in for Vernon Kay tomorrow (Monday 29th April).
