October 29, 2015 So a pumpkin, a turkey and Santa walk into a bar….
It sounds like the beginning of a bad joke, but it’s just the start of one of the busiest and most fun times of the year for radio production pros. Contests, giveaways, promotions, seasonal greetings, topical sweepers, programming features…it can get so busy you’d actually feel relaxed if you were stuck in a crowded shopping mall. So take a deep breath, relax in the comfort of your studio, and be assured that Splat! has your back. Here are some samples of what we come up with for occasions like Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas. (Lots more to come, and tons of stuff on the Splat! website, too.)
October 28, 2015 Is That a Wookie Coat On Your Body? Or Are You Just Happy About Star Wars VII?
Is this the hottest new fashion trend? The Chewbacca coat? It’s a good indicator of the massive anticipation surrounding the release of Star Wars : The Force Awakens.
Radio will be all over the release with tickets, promotions, contests and live events. Do you have your production game plan? While the release is still many weeks away, we figured we’d have a little fun with the signature music…a little Jedi mind trick mashup & Darth Dubstep. Enjoy.
October 16, 2015 Get Your Splat! On – audio grab bag of samples
Friendly office workers are not the only ones who “love the variety!” Here at Splat!, we’re all about mixing it up and providing a spectrum of creative choices. We produce for eight radio formats, ranging from CHR to Classic Rock. Here’s a quick and completely random sampling of sweepers and IDs that we’ve just posed to the Splat! website. Enjoy, we hope you, too, “love the variety!”
October 1, 2015 The Hits Keep Coming
We’re talking about those big hits that rattle your head and keep your ears ringing, sending a buzz through your whole body.
Whether it’s on the radio or on the field, hits are what it’s all about. Dig those great songs that you crank up and want to rock again and again because the chorus is so amazing. Or the cringe worthy hits on the field, the kind that you play back repeatedly because you can’t believe somebody got up and bounced back to the huddle afterward.
But sports and music don’t have to be on two separate radio stations, we’ve brought them together in some fun, high-energy imaging elements. Check the Splat! samples below.
September 28, 2015 Slightly Spacey Sonics
Soft sounds, some Splat! samples surround spectrums! Lots of s’s in thissss. Cindy Brady would hate it, but you might love it. We hope. Just some random sounds, glitchy stuff, rises, layers, textures. These things always sound soooo good at 128Kbps.
September 24, 2015 CHR – High Energy Imaging for High Energy Music
When you need the action, the emotion, the momentum and the flat out, amped up, gettin’ down production sounds to match the heat of the music on your CHR station…you need POP SPLAT! Here then, is a sample. Enjoy.
September 17, 2015 The radio broadcast was in MY headphones, too!
So what’s better than week #1 of the NFL season? Week #2, of course. Sports radio does an amazing job of forecasting, covering & recapping all the action. The middle of the week is the transition, a delicate balance between the old and the new. It’s always fun to hear the seamless transition from one point to the next, always exciting and always interesting.
So, since it’s midweek here’s a sample promo of recapping the action and looking forward to next. The predictions soon follow!
September 14, 2015 Getting Animated (and obscure) With Splat!
Labor Day is still fresh in our memories, but the stores are already breaking out the Christmas and holiday displays. Will it be that much longer before we start hearing Christmas songs on the radio?
Somewhere between the last blast of summer and the first thoughts of snowflakes a little something gets lost, the subtleties of the seasons are under- appreciated and some holidays get ignored completely!
But don’t worry, that’s why we’re here. Splat! has your back for even the little things…like National Comic book Day! Seriously. It exists. Sept. 25th is the day. So we’ve prepared a fun little promo for our animated friends.
September 11, 2015 9/11 – Radio Remembers
On the 14th anniversary of the September 11 terrorist attacks we all look back, and many radio stations respectfully remember the events of that day and how it changes our lives and our country.
September 4, 2015 Hot Hits from a HOT Summer!
As we head in to Labor Day weekend it’s time to start the party, crank up the hits and squeeze every last drop of fun out of summer. But even when Tuesday morning rolls around we won’t let that slow down the excitement. It might start getting colder, but the hits are still hot…witness some stylin’ hit music mix promos from Splat!
