Inside Local Music on The Source FM – Monday 26th July 2010

We are currently compiling highlights programmes from the weekend, so keep an eye out for them over the next few days on the Radio Podcast page on this website and our CYMAZ Radio Facebook page.

CYMAZ Radio has also just featured on The Source FM radio station this evening, with lots of content from the Port Eliot Festival.   If you missed the broadcast, we’ll be posting the ‘Listen Again’ link for you later in the week when they upload it to their website so you can hear it then.

As all our staff will be at Port Eliot it means that there will be no-one in the CYMAZ offices from Thursday 22nd to Monday 26th July inclusive.   Please feel free to e-mail us or leave a message on the answermachine and we’ll deal with it as soon as we get back.   In the case of an emergency you’ll be able to get hold of the team on 07791 744718.

In case you don’t know, ‘25’ is a place to showcase the rich and diverse talent of young people in Cornwall up to the age of 25.  The Green Room will be a space for the young performers to relax, network, receive music industry advice, sign up to and create content for CYMAZ Radio.  

The festival is providing CYMAZ with the opportunity to launch CYMAZ Radio and the Young People’s Music and Radio Network in Cornwall and we will be creating a radio show on each day of the festival.  To get a taste of what goes on in the 25 Tent, click here to go to our Radio Podcast page and listen to the radio programme that we made at Port Eliot last year.

If you are sending us any important information or anything that requires our urgent attention by e-mail, or have sent us anything recently and not received a response please call us on 01872 270074 to verify that we have received it.

Teenage Rampage are looking for enthusiastic people to act as Area Coordinators.  They need one Area Coordinator to work with them around each regional heat (including one in Cornwall).  That’s 8 all together!

If you want a great opportunity to play a central part in the Teenage Rampage Summer Tour 2010, connect with other people across the South West, and gain great experience through Teenage Rampage all the way to the big gig at the Bristol Festival in September and beyond then visit the Teenage Rampage Apprenticeships page for full details.

Written and presented by William Goodchild a highly regarded Bristol based composer and orchestrator, it will cover aspects of music’s aesthetic role in film, how it can be commissioned, crucial relationships that a composer needs to develop, and a look at how the component parts of music for film and TV fit and work together. Key roles will be discussed including: broadcaster, production company, producer/director, editor and composer.

The course will also look into business matters such as fees, contracts, copyright, publishing and royalties, with information about a variety of supportive industry bodies, and discuss the impact of library and production music on the commissioning process and how this fast-developing strand can be useful for composers, creatively and financially.

This will be developed further in follow up sessions as part of Music Industry Education’s focus on the world of synchronisation and music for film, TV, ad’s, brands and games including a direct link to international trade missions.

This first short introductory course will be held at the Colston Hall from 6pm til 9pm on Wed 16th June.
