Hey,

My hometown radio station, Mix 107.9 has been airing the M-Edge jingles for about 3 months, and I am curious to get jingle enthusiasts feedback on how they sound. They sound great here in SLC, but I want to know how everyone else feels about them.

If you haven't heard the demo, it is very CHR friendly.

It will be interesting to hear what M-Edge comes out with next!!

PS: Tony, great job on the new packages… N2 is bigger and better… N2 is M-Edge!!!

HERE IS THE DEMO:

Yeah, I dig the package…very nice! It fits CHR Top 40 very nicely and I must say that it probably works well for Hot AC or even Country.

Hey Gavan, since this is in your hometown would you be able to upload a nice aircheck sometime? I've listened online and the jingles sound great on the stream but It would be nice to have something better.

Great work M-Edge!…keep 'em coming

Tony said in an email he sent me that the package does work for AC, Hot AC, Country, etc minus Rock radio.

i don't like them.

[gavanbruderer]

Yes, I will post some airchecks soon! I am out of town for the holiday, but I will post them somethime this weekend. As for the reply by “gameswizard” I think it would be nice if you elaborated why you “don't like them”

Thanks for your replies!

Here are the promised airchecks…

I recorded these back in October, when KUDD first started using the package…

Enjoy!

Er, yes,right. Not quite to my taste, but I can see why some people might like them.
For me – too shrill, too shrieky, too predictable.
But I'm probably the wrong demographic.

Hey Gavan,

Thanks for the aircheck…very cool. I am more convinced that I love the sound of this package.

As for Bob's comments…you're right it's probably a demographic thing. The sound fits CHR Top 40 right on.

Love the vocals by the way!

Thanks again Gavan.

The package itself is good, but it does rather sound like every other N2 Effect/M-Edge package, they haven't really evolved their sound much.

Tony has always had a knack for creating cutting edge rhythmic jingles. His packages are a favorite of many CHR stations. Not trying to be a sales person here, but why else does Kiss 106.1 Dallas still stay with the guys for all these years.

Though M-Edge jingles tend to sound the same, the vocals, backing tracks, FX and stuff do their job very well. But then again, it's not for everyone,

I am a fan of other companies too but Tony Valdez sure does some amazing stuff. It is no accident that KHKS-FM Dallas (US market #5) has used his production since 2001. WOW…an 8 year run. That's amazing! Keep up the good work Tony.

Interesting comment…wonder which radio station worldwide stayed with one jingle company for the longest duration ?

I reckon BBC Radio Two (UK) would be a good contender – they were with JAM Creative Productions for twenty years !

I think Sunrise Radio (UK) could be in the running too for the length of time they've used JAM too.

With regards the M-Edge package for KUDD,quite good.
