Guest inxces4308 Posted December 17, 2008 Report Share Posted December 17, 2008 Well not sure if this is really worthy of a new topic but on the Music 4 website today they annouched that they are creating a new package for newsbeat. I wonder if it will be just a simple reworking or a total new sound...i hope so!Fresh for 2009! The team at Music 4 and Music 4 Studios have been working hard throughout December on fresh new imaging for BBC Radio 1... A number of new jingles and themes have been produced for The Chris Moyles Show and Newsbeat.The hugely popular Chris Moyles Show moves into it's 5th year in January 2009 and will burst back on the air with new jingles, themes and contest beds for the show. Radio 1 Newsbeat will be freshened up with a remixed theme for 2009.Audio highlights of all of the new work will appear on music4.com early in 2009.http://www.music4.com/musicservices/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if it will be just a simple reworking or a total new sound...i hope so!http://www.music4.com/musicservices/The current Duu du du du's for Newsbeat are nowhere near as good as the previous ones. As for Moyles his jingles seem to get better every time so they should be good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DC 84 Posted December 17, 2008 Report Share Posted December 17, 2008 they should theme the newsbeat imaging like it was around 7 years ago, it sounded quite authoritatttttive like comedy dave said at the time. Quote on the grid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Behelzebub 10 Posted December 17, 2008 Report Share Posted December 17, 2008 Oh yeah, I think I remember that, was that when it was pretty much exactly the same as the BBC News jingles?

Jugalug 10 Posted December 17, 2008 Report Share Posted December 17, 2008 Actually, I've always preferred the current Newsbeat to the previous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JonathanEx 10 Posted January 10, 2009 Report Share Posted January 10, 2009 I'm glad I'm not the only one who recognised it as being new! I like it, nice tweak. Quote BritishGaming.co.uk | SciFi.co.uk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest inxces4308 Posted January 10, 2009 Report Share Posted January 10, 2009 The voiceovers at the top of the jingle also sound abit rushed.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rik 10 Posted January 10, 2009 Report Share Posted January 10, 2009 I like the bed, it's got a nice rocky feel. There's a distinct lack of the dum dee dum dumm logo which I thought would be expected. There's no real ramp on the introduction to the first ident like there used to be which I think might make it a bit more difficult for Scott, Chris and Greg to hit it as they like to do. I also agree the top ident sounds rushed and the male voice sounds a bit high doesn't it?Even after all that, I still quite like it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest inxces4308 Posted January 10, 2009 Report Share Posted January 10, 2009 When they launched the new female voiceover (Holly From MStone) they changed the newsbeat jingle but then changed it again a few days after and changed the effects on her voice. I think they may do it again this time round..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ant L 51 Posted January 10, 2009 Report Share Posted January 10, 2009 VERY nice. I was only expecting a few changes like they did when they added the new female voiceover, but much impressed.Let's hope Music4 add it to their site soon so we can hear the package properly.

Jono 54 Posted January 10, 2009 Report Share Posted January 10, 2009 I'll add up a recording at 12.30pm if I remember! Not heard them yet...Edit: It reminds me somewhat of commercial radio's news. It's certainly only a remix of the old package but it's more upbeat and has the Music4 magic about it.It's a bit loud and in your face for the presenter to talk over but I could soon get used to it.10-1-2009-newsbeat.mp3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest inxces4308 Posted January 10, 2009 Report Share Posted January 10, 2009 Have they dropped doing with weather? Or dont they normally do it at the weekend? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rik 10 Posted January 10, 2009 Report Share Posted January 10, 2009 Have they dropped doing with weather? Or dont they normally do it at the weekend?I think weathers only mornings and evenings. They might not do it at weekends at all, I'm not sure though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fraz- J 10 Posted January 10, 2009 Report Share Posted January 10, 2009 I'm downloading the new theme now, I'm actually quite excited to hear it!I actually quite like it! It's quite fast though innit?! I don't like the female voiceover's echo of 'Radio 1' but it's quite good It does sound like they've kept most of the old voiceovers, and sounds like a remix of the old package but it's good Quote www.drainpipeclothing.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Stig 11 Posted January 10, 2009 Report Share Posted January 10, 2009 I like it. Not the last one, the one before http://chrismoyles.net/soundvault/pafiledb.php?action=file&id=1203 had that rocky up tempo theme, whereas the last one was a bit flat. This one's much better.

Jugalug 10 Posted January 10, 2009 Report Share Posted January 10, 2009 I actually liked the last one an awful lot, and didn't feel it had aged - all of the previous ones had started to grate on me by the time they'd changed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
