A couple of years ago I had quite a thrill when two of my songs were played on a college radio station at UC Berkley. I wonder if others on this forum have gotten airplay on college radio, and how you got it.

We've had 22 songs licensed by Mood Media which is the largest worldwide provider of "over head" music, i.e., restaurants, bars, etc. I'd have to check but we opted in all our songs for college radio and had 5 or 6 tunes selected. If by success you mean money...not much with the college radio as it's like payout for an album upload to the platforms, e.g., Spotify and only pays out when streamed. I don't really see any serious money in college radio at least not for our old school genres. Mood Media is a different model and pays a relatively small quarterly amount to us. Additionally we've made around $300 on three songs licensed for different projects. But with us it's just for fun and ST is cheap. And it offers some validation beyond family and friends that we are producing some decent music. Bud

We did it by showing up at the college and talking with the team that ran the radio station. Donuts/coffee can go a long way .. same thing happened with a couple commercial radio stations; Buy advertising for a show you are doing (fairly affordable if you explain it is a benefit) Bring coffee, donuts, band promo items and a CD (look like you are serious and have plans) .. within days we were riding around hearing our stuff on the airwaves. A little schmoozing can go a long way
Make your sound your own! .. I do not work here, but the benefits are still awesome

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!
If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.
A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."
"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."
"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
