NRK mP3 get new ReelWorld imaging 

Norway's public broadcaster, NRK mP3 have launched a new station sound package this week from ReelWorld.

The station, which targets young listeners, has received a new set of CHR themes featuring high impact voiceovers.

NRK's Christer Johan Petterson-Dahl said - "NRK mP3 has always been the best sounding CHR station for young people in Norway and this new package allows us to maintain that position. It's a great package that fits the music and hosts on NRK mP3. We love it!"

The project saw NRK mP3 continue their long standing relationship with ReelWorld producer Ben Marks - "It's always a great pleasure to work with NRK mP3. The challenge this time was to make things feel more natural. To marry that huge contemporary VO sound with the conversational delivery that's in keeping with spoken Norwegian.  I couldn't be happier with the result. It was so much fun to produce!"

ReelWorld work with some of Europe's biggest youth broadcasters including RTE 2FM in Ireland, the UK's BBC Radio 1 and Bayern 3 in Germany.

BBC Radio 2 - Production Highlights 2019

Radio 1 Dance Launch

German public broadcasting station, 1LIVE, have launched an extensive overhaul of their station sound and imaging, teaming up with London-based production company Wisebuddah for the first time.

Every day, nearly 3 million people listen to the Westdeutscher Rundfunk (WDR) station across North-Rhine Westphalia, tuning in for some of the most varied and progressive content on German radio. 

Reflecting this, Wisebuddah have produced a package that features over 35 distinct compositions, ranging from IDs to Show Openers and talkover Beds, along with a brand-new set of Information Elements and Sweepers. The new audio identity is then all brought together with the station’s brand-new sonic logo, which has been designed to underpin the uniqueness of the German station.

David Mannheim, Brand Manager, 1LIVE added: “For the “new 1LIVE” we were looking for an individual and unmistakable package that sounds urban, modern, warm, young, dynamic, but by no means cheap or stressful. In addition, the new sound package should pick up on current music trends and optimally adapt to the 1LIVE playlist. In the first meetings we explained to the Wisebuddah team our philosophy and conveyed what DNA 1LIVE carries. 

This balancing act - intense and dynamic, but not sounding stressful or annoying - was implemented very well by Wisebuddah. The final elements are very easy to drive and combine optimally with the range of content that 1LIVE displays daily in the program: events, comedies, topics from the sector, current news and listener interaction.”

Phil Tozer, Wisebuddah’s Managing Director, said: “David and the team asked us to create a wide-ranging package that really represented 1LIVE and its listeners and wanted us (like them) to be courageous and unconventional. From meetings in London, to great collaborative discussions and listening sessions, this was always at the forefront of our minds. 
It means we have created something that, from both a musical and a branding point of view, flows smoothly through and connects the stations programming, yet resonates on an individual level too; be that with a presenter’s personality or the next song on the 1LIVE playlist.

Check out the new Wisebuddah website featuring this package and many more (including work for BBC Radio 1 (UK), Radio 538 (Netherlands) and Fun Radio (France) at www.wisebuddah.com.
