Over the years I’ve been emailed by many people asking me how I get the ideas to put radio sound effects together. It’s something I find quite enjoyable so ideas come naturally. I’m an imaging producer at heart so I make elements that I would use myself. There’s nothing better than trying out a sound [...]
“If I knew then what I know now”, I’m sure that many of us have said this throughout our radio career. Earlier this year I asked loads of people across the radio industry for their words of advice and the following is what they came up with. Some are funny, some are serious, but hopefully [...]
“RAJAR Day? That’s come round quickly”. I wonder how many people in your office have said that today? One of the first promos I made when I started out in radio back in the 90s was a RAJAR results trail. We’d gone up and the boss at the time wanted to shout about it, [...]
Radio Clichés I’m sure that many of us have been guilty of using them in a script at one time or another. No? Are you sure? Not even the time when you were given that S&P brief at 4.30pm on a Friday for a “garden tool winning weekend”? There are loads of annoying clichés [...]

I heard on the radio earlier this week that cigarette vending machines have been banned in England. This is great news as it stops under 16s getting easy access to cigarettes. I produced a video for the British Heart Foundation two years ago to highlight their campaign to get the vending machines banned from pubs. [...]
