This bed goes with a promo that described a contest for drawings and
giveaways to celebrate. Unfortunately,

"Me

Promo |

"Journey
On" was a Saturday night show where we experimented with new Christian
music. This idea came back to the
station in 1996 as an everynight program called "The Edge." This recording was lifted from a 4-track
recording and you can hear the phase shift from one channel to the other in the
middle. Sequenced on the Peavey DPM4. |

1995 |
Promo |
|
|
This is on
of the first sequences produced on the Roland SC-88 synth. I loved the sound of the 12 string patch on
this synth and used it heavily. Notice
the tempo picks up in the middle, and there is a shortened measure before the
orch hit. Very dramatic. |

Kathy Show (April Fools) |

Jingle |

For April
Fools, I produced two "fake" jingles for John and Kathy. They pretended they had each had a jingle
created for the show. Of course, each
one's jingle featured them prominently while downplaying the other. I sang all the vocals. Sequenced on the Roland SC-88. |

Music
Sweeper |
1992 |
Liner |
N/A |
|
|
In 1992 we
used a bottom of the hour sweeper where we highlighted three current songs
that were in hot rotation. This Mix is
just an example of one. Sequenced on

News Exit |

Spirited
Music for Christian Living |
1992 |
Liner |
|
|
"Spirited
Music for Christian Living" was the slogan I came up with to package
Alive 93-5. I remember sitting in the station's
office talking to people when the idea came to me. We kept that team for the 6 years I was
program director. This liner is from
the original package I created on the DPM3/SE+. It served as the base sound for the
station's image. |
||
Weatherwatch
93 |
1992 |
Donut |
|
One of the
most important pieces I produced was the WeatherWatch 93 donut. This element created almost instant
credibility for the station and worked by playing the intro, reading the
weather, then starting the outro as one said "for Today's Christian Music." Sequenced on the DPM3/SE+. |

Christian
Classic |
1993 |
Liner |
|
|

This liner
was played at the bottom of every third hour before we played a
"Christian Classic" song.

WHJT/WSLI
Legal ID |
1993 |
Liner |
|
|
WHJT legal
ID and WHJT/WSLI dual ID. The mix is
the version that has a trailing pulse designed to pad out until the network
news - unfortunatley, DJ's abused this terribly instead of tightening up on
their backtiming! The bed is the
simple ID without the trailer.
Sequenced on the DPM 3/SE+. |

Half-Our

This liner
was, I think, played out of the news at some point, but I can't remember

Christmas
Liner (Long) |
1995 |
Liner |
|
In 1995
and 1996 I used these Christmas lines to produce station greetings, played at
the bottom of the hour. There was a
long and short version to accommodate differing length greetings. Sequenced on the Roland SC-88. You get an idea of how big the staff was
listening to this. |

Weatherwatch

1995 |
Donut |
When I
upgraded the DPM3/SE+ to DPM4, the first thing I did was use the new RapKit

It's a little "heavy" but cool sounding! That's my voice on the Example. |

In 1997 I

became clear I couldn't keeping being the PD and also teach effectively in
Computer Science. Actually, I just felt I couldn't do much more with the
station, and the management had also become ineffective. This, and our rivalry with WYJS, caused me
to never complete this package, thought it would have been REALLY COOL! This Legal ID is loosely based on the one
