While other radio stations in Metro Manila are sporting on their brand new spanking jingles made in the United States, iFM is loud and proud to be airing their homegrown jingles created by today’s promising artists.

In 2006, iFM wowed the radio industry when they commissioned the top artists in the Philippine Music Industry to sing their new jingles iFM Pwede jingle. Stars like Regine Velasquez, Sarah Geronimo, Gloc 9, Andrew E, Zelle among others, sang iFM to its top spot in the ratings games.

In 2009, vocalist Byron Ricamara of the band Squeezer, gave the iFM jingle and a whole new sound. In the tradition of electronic punk rock hits of today as Metro Station, 30H!3, and Cobra Starship, the new iFM “Siguradong Enjoy Ka” jingle is another ground breaking production.

iFM also scored with its hit nationwide program The i10 Countdown hosted by a crack team of presenters : DJ Yumi, Bojo B and Kuholito. The unique way of presenting this chart program is what makes this show stand out. My hats off once again to production genius Mr. Van O and to the creative staff of iFM.

Love Radio Palawan, Lucena City, Davao Live Na Live!

It’s always really great to know that more and more radio stations are jumping into the bandwagon of online streaming. 98.3 Love Radio Palawan and 100.7 Love Radio Lucena City are just among the many provincial stations that are now taking advantage of the internet.

It’s also surprising to note that most of the stations that go online are from the province. Most of the stations in Manila are now also heard via WWW. Yet, some of the major market stations are still not into it. 101.9 For Life has a Live on Air button, but it doesn’t do anything. I though it’s for streaming. ABS-CBN’s MOR station in Cebu (www.971lupigsila.webs.com)doesn’t also have an official streaming link. MOR 101.1 Davao doesn’t also offer one.

Internet streaming, frankly speaking, doesn’t have a significant impact on the sales of radio stations which is why only a few stations go online.

Adam Lambert Has No Boundaries

If Adam had won, this would have been performed on AI Stage that night.
If Adam had won, this would have been performed on AI Stage that night.

I just realized that before the AI finale, the final 2 contestants are actually rehearsing a common song – and that is the winning piece of that season. So is it safe to say then that David Archuleta also had a version of the “The Time of My Life”?

Adam Lambert’s No Boundaries was recently released on Zune, Microsoft’s version of the iTunes Store. As always, Adam’s unique vocal style stands out in this song. And I am loving the way he belts the last line of the chorus … “there are no boundaries!”.

To cap off, Adam’ version of No Boundaries was more mature. Kris Allen’s version was more pop.

96.3 Easy Rocks Gets Jingles from ReelWorld

The 96.3 FM Band in Metro Manila has had been the favorite destination of listeners for many years when it comes to light rock music. 96.3 WRock is the epitome of AC radio in the Philippines, with franchises operating in Cebu, Bacolod, and Davao.

Aside from the signature light rock format, 96.3 was best remembered for its popular radio jingles from TM Century, which were originally produced for 96.7 FM K-Lite. (You can listen to the original KLite jingles here)

After its re-branding to Easy Rock and acquisition by Cebu Broadcasting Company in 2008, 96.3 gets a facelift with contemporary AC jingles from ReelWorld.

The purchase of the new set of jingles seems continue the tradition of its preceding brand. The new Easy Rock jingles resembles the melodic themes and emotional lyrics of the WRock’s jingles.

The new jingles are lifted from the Delilah, a syndicated AC radio program in the US. Here are the jingles for 96.3 Easy Rock, from ReelWorld. Thanks to j5bata for the up.
