I don’t understand the word ‘Impossible’..... we inserted the new new tracks in
last time in a suitable rotation. Why do we need to insert them equally....
surely they can be inserted as a rotation rule.... they really don’t have to
come up in a certain time each hour.
A playblock would look something like this and just loop in rotation....
(example)
Playlist Track
Playlist Track
Classic Rock Track
Playlist Track
New Rock A List
Playlist Track
Playlist Track
Brand New Rock
Anyway.... in the meantime the New Rock A List is streaming here
http://listen.samcloud.com/w/73742/Sarahs-New-Rock-Hastings-Rock/?play=y#history
There are actually 214 tracks in the A List

ok Sarah I'm ready when you are, so just pop round .
i see where you are coming from with the rotation but would be impossible to
schedule them equally in each programme.

I have filtered the 1200 new tracks down a number of times and have two final
lists
A List – Ones I think would probably go into the normal playlist on a suitably
frequent rotation – There are about 230 tracks in this list
B List – Ones I think should go into the normal playlist on a less frequent
rotation – There are about 230 tracks in this list too
I still have a bit of work to do on these tracks but they will be ready over
the coming week. I would suggest I drop round with a memory stick when they are
ready Nick.
If there is a track that isn’t in there that you think should be, I have
probably got it but not included it. Please ask. There are around 700 tracks I
haven’t included at all.
I have put a cut on these tracks as February 28th. Subsequent new tracks will
go into my New Rock Show and the best ones post March 1st will go into the
playlist after being played in the New Rock show. With the New Rock Show
potentially on the first day of broadcast then the best ones will go straight
in anyway.
In previous broadcasts we have done this New Music feature during the show
clockwheel.... I have strong opinions on this and I am not a fan of this
approach. I believe strongly that they should go into heavy, moderate or light
rotation in the playlist depending on the track itself. It can always be
introduced as something ‘recently released’ and can be marked as such.
I hope that is all as clear as mud.... I will let you know Nick when new tracks
are ready.
