GLR, with more than 1,000 stations in 350 markets in 17 countries has contracted with Aircast Production to refresh their branding themes used for news and sports broadcasts. When completed, this project will cross many musical boundaries from a live symphonic performance of their traditional iconic theme to aggressive sports themes. Utilized on the GLR networks, “W”, “Caracol”, “ADN” and “Continental”, Aircast has also vocally branded these networks with GLR’s well known 3 note audio logo.

With the 40 year Woodstock anniversary and the related “Woodstock Now & Then” documentary that aired on the History Channel, a cross promotion between Mercedes and the History Channel required a :30 re-record of Canned Heat’s famed song, Goin’ Up The Country. The spot turned out a beautifully created seamless mix of Mercedes ad and documentary promotion tied together with Aircast’s instantly identifiable sound alike of the Canned Heat song.

WTVC-TV (ABC) in Chattanooga has rebranded their newscasts with a new audio logo and theme variations for their dayparts. The “Freedom News Package” was created to maximize the station’s ability to use variations of the audio logo and music beds with ease of use and flexibility. With news music needs far different today than even 5 or 10+ years ago, it’s vital to create a memorable audio logo and music beds to capture different daypart characteristics and promo themes of different subject matter. The challenge is to get the station into a newscast quickly with instant audio recognition of where the viewer is tuned.

I can only say….WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW! I am amazed at how you guys nailed this project! I know how hard it is to translate a person’s verbal directions into reality…and have the final product come out exactly like the client wanted it! It was like you guys got in my head! Please give your people a BIG thank you from the programming folks here at K-Earth! These beds will go a long way to developing excitement for this event as our listeners hear the promo, and they will work to develop the “Bugstock” brand properly! What more could we ask for? Thanks again…" - Keith Smith, Imaging Director, KRTH-FM

News 12, WPEC-TV (West Palm Beach, FL) The CBS affiliate in West Palm Beach, FL has completed an on air makeover with music produced by AirCast Production. Craig Davenport, the CSD for this Freedom Broadcasting station helped with the direction of this 13 theme package which reflects today's needs for a quick identifiable music ID incorporated into various programming themes.

"As we went into this project, we had one goal in mind. To be different. To break out of the dull, uninspired music package mold most TV stations use for their news music beds. Airtime understood that. They got it. From the very first note, it was a collaborative, creative and very enjoyable process. And in the end, what they delivered to us was a news music package that stood out, broke the mold, and really supported our desire to be unique in our market." - Craig Davenport, Creative Services Director, WPEC CBS
