1980 Jingles & Promotions

Cassettes & Audio Tape

My journey into producing trailers and promotions was learnt over a number of years playing with two cassette machines and a reel to reel player.

A New Jingle Producer

All the early jingles and promotions were produced in this way. Once constructed they would be provided on cassette tapes of short duration.

All jingles were also given three cue bleeps at the start.

During the summer month's of 1980 thirty three jingles were constructed promoting the presenters on a Saturday night.

As time went on, I would be producing promotions and trailers for other nights on the radio.

What started as a hobby, became a sort after skill by the radio.
