You can program Classic Hits (or similar music formats) using classic category setups based on music library decades — or do this, and distinguish yourself.
Playing power songs for your entire demo, yet focusing your efforts on your core target is what we've covered in part 1 of this series for Gold-oriented music radio. The example formats shown were audience-category based, instead of using plain decades or eras, but there are even more ways to build smart categories and rotate them effectively. In this article, we’ll discuss a different method to create a music format for Classic Hits (or related programming strategies).
This article will give you ideas & insights on:
- how to code your songs for better music flow
- how to divide your library without time-based criteria
- how to create your categories without song rotation issues
- how to organise your categories for consistent brand experience
- how to integrate your imaging in your music scheduling
