NOVA Entertainment’s refresh of the Nova brand includes new sound from ReelWorld
 
Australia’s Nova Network has recently launched a refresh of the Nova brand which includes a new jingle package from ReelWorld.
 
The new sound is on air now across Australia and includes Top of Hour and Out of Break jingles as well as news and travel themes.
 
Paul Jackson, NOVA Entertainment Group Programme Director said, “To complement the new invigorated look and feel of Nova’s brand refresh we worked closely with the team at ReelWorld to deliver a jingle and utilities package with an impact and sharpness that reflects Nova’s playlist and passion for the freshest music. In a first for the network this package covers frequency specific jingle cuts tailored for all five markets nationally.”
 
Sydney’s Nova 96.9, Melbourne’s Nova 100, Brisbane’s Nova 106.9, Adelaide’s Nova 919 and Perth’s Nova 937 are all airing their own localised versions of the jingle themes.
 
Nova’s refreshed brand extends across all touch points from on-air programming, new mobile apps (including Apple Carplay) desktop, mobile sites and social platforms and across all signage, merchandise and street teams and is supported by an extensive marketing campaign including a new television commercial.
 
NOVA Entertainment’s new music-led TVC is designed to support Nova’s brand refresh and features a bespoke soundtrack composed by ReelWorld. The TVC is dedicated to reflecting Nova’s connection and passion for music, featuring some of the world’s biggest international and local artists.
 
ReelWorld, with head offices in Seattle and a base at MediaCityUK near Manchester, also provide jingles for stations like KIIS LA, Heart UK, Z100 New York and BBC Radio 1Xtra.

Welcome to Nation Radio 2017, a brand new custom jingle package for Wales' national commercial radio station.

Each theme has a feel-good vibe, with pop, rock and dance sounds infused to ensure that there's a theme for every kind of music on your station. Nation's Programme Director Neil Greenslade loves them too, saying "These jingles sound great on air - we love them!"

Nation chose to not have a slogan or frequency sung on their jingles, however the slogan mixes all have room for your positioning statement or frequency, should you wish to have it included. Get in touch and we'll tell you more about customisation and flexibility.

As developer of a best-in-class streaming apps for radio stations on iOS it’s important for us to keep abreast of the latest developments. That’s why we’re in San Jose, California, this week for Apple’s annual Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC).

WWDC17: What’s new for radio?

A brand new radio station needs to stand out, and we worked closely with Star Radio in Saratoga to ensure that these jingles would do exactly that. A wide range of styles and tempos, plus top of hour, weather and community calendar.

"They do speak for themselves! Ignite really delivered on this package for us, the 4 note sonic logo is contagious and hearing listeners already humming it, is amazing! This package fits our format perfectly and we are delighted with the finished product."

It was with great sadness that I learned of the death of the legendary Gay Byrne today (November 4th 2019). I had the absolute pleasure of interviewing him on more than one occasion and here's just one of those interviews where he started by telling me he had all the radio bingo numbers!
