BBC Radio 1 Assignment

Radio 1 has a target audience of 15-29 year olds although, I feel it only attracts a certain kind of genre during daylight hours, pop which I do not like at all rendering Radio 1 useless to me. Being a big fan of old school 2005> hip hop/rap the only hip hop show that Radio 1 has is hosted by Charlie Sloth who shouts every word he says and the music is no better, its all modern hip hop/rap.

The music that Radio 1 usually plays during the day is mainly top 40 chart music which usually contains genres such as pop and R&B. This format has music has been chosen because most people aged 15-29 use music sites such as iTunes in which they layout the top songs and to get top songs people must be buying them and over time you get a pattern where certain artists get in the top 40 straight away. So people must be listening to their music and therefore people will want to hear it on the radio.

1) What is a stations "Music Format?" - A stations music format is the overall content that is            broadcast on a station so for example the genre of music that is played.

2) What is an A B C Playlist? - The A B C playlist is the popularity of the song. So a popular           artist like Lady Gaga if it fitted into the radio stations music format it would go straight into the     A group. Whereas, a new artist would start off in group C to try and climb the ladder to group     A. The more the song gets played and the more listeners that artist will more up groups.

3) What is "Music Scheduling?" - Music Scheduling is a program with loads of databases of            songs. The program generates music playlists for the radio stations to play. 

4) 

5)The music scheduler uses techniques like playing popular songs in which most people would enjoy. For example playing top 40 songs in the charts of the most listened to songs.
