CHR/Top 40 radio stations are always so great about branding their music and artists.  Rock is pretty good at it too, but in a different way.  Can Rock radio take a page from CHR, using some of their time-tested imaging and production strategies?  Here is a mini comparison of Song Intros and Beatmix montages.

Track #1 features CHR intros for Borns and G Easy, plus a few nice new music montages.  Track #2 features Rock intros for Five Finger Death Punch and Alice in Chains, plus a few library music montages.  Take a listen, which do you prefer?  Does the dual approach to branding artists and music work for both radio formats equally well?
