by Gordon Masson and Emmanuel Legranda Music & Media/Billboard staff report

LONDON/BRUSSELS - Will it be acase of Sing When You're Winningor will EMI and TimeWarner end up In Blue?

The $20 billion mergerof EMI Group and TimeWarner's music divi-sions has entered itslast phase and, as theEuropean Commissionis now expected to deliver its verdictbefore October 18, doubt is growingabout the clearance of the deal.

In a last minute attempt to blockit, opponents to the merger wereputting the finishing touches totheir final objections to meet withSeptember 22 midday deadline setby the EC's competition department.

The objections follow the presen-tation a few days earlier by EMIand Time Warner of a series ofundertakings they hope would sal-vage the deal. Executives from both

companies at the highest level metwith the European Commissionerin charge of competition, MarioMonti, on September 18.

"It took so long to getconcessions on the table,"reveals a senior Warnerexecutive. "This deal is

fighting for its life, andthis past week, for thefirst time, EMI [inter-nally] is not confident

[about the outcome]." The sourceadmits "nobody expected either thevirulence of the Commission'sobjections or the broad sweep of itsconclusions."

The undertakings were outlinedin a document to the Commissionseen by Music & Media. Theyinclude the selling of assets in sev-eral European countries so thattheir combined market shareremains below 35% in these coun-tries. These assets include EMI

Upfrontby Emmanuel Legrand. Music & Media editor -in -chief

What's wrong with Europe? Why do European con-sumers seem to be turning their backs on music whileNorth Americans are in a buying frenzy?

This is a legitimate question, especially after look-ing at the most recent global market statistics for1999 released by the IFPI.

Throughout the first half of the past decade,Europe's cumulative sales were superior to NorthAmerica's, reaching a high point in 1996. Then it allstarted to crumble. Year after year, Europe started tolose ground, sinking to a new low in 1999. WhileNorth America now accounts for 39.3% of the world'stotal sales in value, Europe is down to 32.1%.

Of course, much can be explained by currencyfluctuations, and it's no secret that the US dollarhas outperformed all the other currencies in recentyears (especially in 1999/2000). But there is cer-tainly more than exchange rates to explain why theEuropean market is at best at a standstill, at worse,in a recession.

Compared to North America-and its principal

component, the USA-music sales in Europe havebeen penalised by several factors: a fragmented set oflocal markets, making difficult to organise globalmarketing and promotion campaigns; the lack of asingle currency; higher wholesale prices and higherVAT rates applied to sounds recordings (in the regionof 16% to 20% on average in Europe with peaks at25%); a relatively weak retail base; and new competi-tion from CD -Rs and the Internet.

All this has contributed to a rather poor perfor-mance in Europe. Most European countries are lag-ging far behind the US in terms of music sales percapita in value and units. While American consumersbuy an average of 4 CDs a year per capita, it's closerto 2.5 in most of Europe.

Can anything be done to reverse this trend?For a start, music has to become more affordable.

This will require a serious assess-ment on pricing policies andmakes it even more urgent for theEuropean Union to lower the VATrate on records. But music has tobecome an exciting part of lifeagain-and it is up to labels,artists, retail and the media tocombine their efforts to make thishappen.

Currie exitsby Jon Heasman

LONDON - The Emap PerformanceNetwork (EPN)'s music directorFrancis Currie is striking out onhis own to develop what hedescribes as a "digital" project.

Currie refuses to be drawn fur-ther on the venture, for which healready has partners and is cur-rently seeking finance, but says itrevolves around an idea that"wouldn't wait," hence his decisionto leave the EPN music directorpost after just five months.

The speculation is that Currie isthe latest senior UK programmerto move into the dotcom sector, fol-lowing the departure in Februaryof Chrysalis Radio's group pro-grammer Keith Pringle to start hisRide The Tiger venture and

Emap for digital venturerumours that former Capital Radiogroup head of programmes CliveDickens may also be plotting Inter-net moves following his departurefrom Capital in July.

Currie's appointment asmusic director (M&M, March25) followed a realignment ofEmap's business structureand the creation of the EmapPerformance Network, whichbrought together all the company'sUK music -related magazines, radiostations, TV channels and Internetventures in one division.

"I had a fantastic time atEmap," says Currie, who pro-grammed music TV channel theBox and Soft AC station Magic105.4/London for Emap, priorbeing appointed EPN music direc-tor, which he describes as "the best

job I've ever had."It is understood from Emap

sources that Currie will not bereplaced as music director, but

instead there will now begenre -specific heads of pop,rock and dance within EPN,working-like Currie-acrossprint, broadcast and newmedia and reporting to EPNmanaging director Dee Ford.

Those appointments are expectedto be announced within the nextthree weeks.

In addition, Piccadilly Key103/Manchester programme direc-tor Dave Shearer has beenappointed group head of music(M&M, September 16) with specif-ic responsibility for co-ordinatingmusic policy at Emap's Big Citychain of CHR stations.

Cadena 100 rings the changesand works closer with labelsby Howell Llewellyn

MADRID - AC/CHR stationCadena 100, which is ownedby Cadena COPE, has adopt-ed programming changes ina bid to turn the tide follow-ing a slump that saw itsdaily audience fall below theone million mark for the firsttime in four years.

Cadena 100's nationaldirector Jordi Casoliva nowpresents the first two hoursof the popular morningshow La Jungla, with JoseAntonio Abelian takingover the last four hours, aswell as fronting his ownlate -night sports show.

There is also a newevening programme, whichwill stick mainly to theCadena 100 playlist, butCasoliva says will be"younger, fresher, and more

dynamic." In order toachieve "more internalcohesion," playlist slots willnow be heard on all pro-grammes. "This way thepresence of ourplaylist music willtangibly improve,"says Casoliva.

"These are crucialtimes," says Casoli-va, "and, after yearsof stability, thingsare changing. We arerenewing our contents toadapt to the market's newtastes and evolutions."

In another change,record labels are beinginvited to join the regularweekly playlist meetings inMadrid attended by region-al Cadena 100 program-mers. The station says themove is a "gesture" to theindustry and claims it will

not affect programmingdecisions.

"We haven't done thisbefore, as we wanted toavoid complications 'with

everybody pumpingus with their newsingles," says Caso-liva. "The idea is forour regional peopleto get to know theguys from the labels,and vice -versa. It's a

public relations exercise."Casoliva says he is opti-

mistic for the future. "Ofcourse I want to recuperatethe level of one million lis-teners, but we would haveintroduced these changesanyway," he says. "I amoptimistic that things willimprove, although I believethat all real changes takeup to three years to showreal benefit."

A top priorityat EMI -Medley isCartoons' follow-up totheir multi -millionseller Toonage, thistime with an albumcalled Toontastic.

FINLAND

Despite its recent fixation with dis-covering new talent with internation-al potential, the Finnish music scenewill be dominated by major releasesfrom established talent during theautumn. MOR station Radio Suomi islooking at a swarm of new titles withdefinite hit potential.

"The quality this autumn willmake it tough even for establishedacts to get noticed," says MikaSuikkanen, music presenter at the

station.One of the most

anticipated newalbums comes fromsinger Kirka, celebrat-ing his 50th birthdaywith the release ofSuuri Hetki (GrandMoment)."His latestsingleKatkera a

viini (Bitter Wine) isalready one of our most -played, and I'm suremore tracks will be liftedoff the album," saysSuikkanen. BMG's pro-motion manager PekkaNieminen also has highhopes for the release:"Kirka is the most suc-cessful Finnish male -singer ever, having soldover a million copies ofhis albums."

Despite major releases catering tomore traditional tastes, national CHRstation Radiomafia will be keeping aneye on emerging genres, according tohead of music Ville Vilen. "There is alot of quality material coming outfrom the dance music and hip -hopscenes, music that can do well any-where," he says.

Definite hitAnother eagerly awaited effort istrance -act Darude's debut &fore TheStorm. "That is a definite hit inFinland, thanks to two excellent sin-gles and success abroad," Vilen says,referring to Darude's Sandstorm sin-gle which reached No.3 in the British

charts duringthe summer.Nieminen atBMG saysthat the stormhas yet tostop: "Thingsare happeningall around,the single alsowent into theGerman top10 recently."

Finnishlanguage rappers Fintelligens havebeen growing in popularity single bysingle, with extensive air -play espe-cially on national CHR stationRadiomafia, whose head of musicVille Vilen believes their debutRenesanssi (Renessaince): "Could beone of the biggest releases thisautumn."

Established actsA string of established male singershave new albums out, including KariVepsd, Kari Tapio, Riki Sorsa and inthe younger generation Samuli

Edelman. Ultra Braand Mamba canexpect major radioplay across the sta-tions, the latter hav-ing reached a newhigh in popularity,after selling 70,000copies of their com-pilation last year.

Veteran -rockerIsmo Alanko has astrong ethnic -influ-enced album outand Kalle Ahola,frontman of DonHuonot, has com-pleted his first soloeffort which is out in

late September.Leaning into alternative rock CMX

has managed to become a regular onthe Radiomafia playlist and their new.album is an ambitious double. And inmetal-traditionally a strong genre inFinland-the autumn's main releaseis Children of Bodom's new album,with which they aim to capture a newinternational audience.

Major releases are arriving likeleaves falling off the trees this fall inthe Netherlands, with country divause DeLange's second -as yet untitled

album (due outon WarnerBrothers)among themost - eagerlyanticipated.With sales ofaround 400,000copies her 1998debut albumWorld Of Hurt (Warner Bros) will be atough act to follow, but she has help inthe form of Nashville veteran BarryBeckett, who again took on produc-tion duties.

Marinus De Goederen, producer ofRadio 3FM's daily show Isabelle, isespecially looking forward to the sec-ond outing of Dyzack (Polydor) whocould be the Dutch answer to Beck."Both [Dutch -language rock bands]Skik (Polydor) and The Scene(Mercury) will guest on our show," headds, underlining the potentialimpact of their releases too.

Somewhat surprisingly, nearly allthe other top releases are Dutch -

SWEDEN

In traditional Swedish fashion, thealbum repertoire from the countrythis season is packed with solid localacts as well as exportable world classartists, only this year things lookbetter than ever.

"This is a strong autumn, fantasticcompared to last year," says StefanGullberg MD EMI Svenska, who saysthat EMI's priorities this season willbe two debut acts. "Modern pop actStand Fast have recorded the bestalbum that's been made in Sweden inten years and I think they will also dovery well internationally," saysGullberg. Stand Fast's first single

Carcrashes goes to radio at the end ofSeptember, and will be followed bythe duo's debut album, which was co -produced by Arnthov, who has workedwith Ronan Keating, and BradGilderman who has worked with 98°and Madonna.

International breakEMI also has hopes for an interna-tional break -through for its otherdebut act Shimoli. "We playedShimoli's first single Damned, whichwas brilliant," says Wow 105.5'sMarcus Onnestam. "[The station is]really more guitar based, but[Shimoli's] a good cross -over act."Both Stand Fast and Shimoli will bereleased in Scandinavia before goingto the rest of Europe.

At Zomba, Jessica Folcker's newalbum Dino is a big priority, and willbe released in Scandinavia in October,before hitting the Benelux countries

before Christmas, and in the US andthe rest of Europe in the new year. Thefirst single To Be Able To Love isalready out on radio in Sweden.

Top prioritiesPer Sundin, managing director atSony Music Entertainment Sweden,says that Sony's main priorities forthe season are Peter Joback and

Higher went to number two in theSwedish sin-gles chart lastweek and thealbum will bereleased inFinland theweek after itsSwedish date,with Norwayand Denmarkexpected to fol-low beforeChristmas. Swedish -singing MagnusUggla is a local priority, but also hasa fanbase in Norway, and Sundinexpects the album to be releasedthere as well.

Another Sony priority is Meja'ssecond album which will be releasedlater in the autumn.

Warner's internationalexploitation manager HeleneWigren says that Dr. Bombayis back in a new guise asScottish -inspired Dr. MacDoo,and the first Macahula Dancecomes with a dance a laMacarena.

"The album will bereleased simultaneouslythroughout Scandinavia andthe rest of Europe just after,"says Wigren. Another priorityis Tomas Andersson Wij. "Heis a wonderful artist whosings in Swedish with stronglyrics, who could possibly bereleased in Norway as well,"says Wigren.

The hit Big Big Worldmade a name for Emilia inEurope and her second albumis a priority for Universal this

autumn. International exploitationmanager Peter Hart says that "[from]what I've heard so far the album isvery strong. We will be building on thesuccess of the first album with this

AIRBORNEThe pick of the week's new singles

by Miiriam Hubner

BEN HARPER & THE INNOCENTCRIMINALSSTEAL MY KISSESVirginRelease date: theWith the release of his firstalbum Welcome To The CruelWorld in 1994, Ben Harper

instantly gained a reputation as one of themost creative and talented new artists in hisnative US. His latest album, Burn to Shine,released last year in the US, spent severalmonths on Billboard's Top 200 chart andenlarged an already loyal fanbase. His music isan eclectic mix of blues, soul and rock. Harperhas always looked to his musical roots which liein the old blues tradition. Aiming to reach .adiverse group of listeners, at the same time askeeping a high level of innovation, Harperconnects with a wide audience, reaching fromyoung hip -hoppers to reggae and Jimi Hendrixfans. Music director at AC station P5 RadioStockholm Robert Sehlberg says, "Steal MyKisses is a happy, acoustic song with a perfectradio format." He continues, "Ben Harperinspired one of Sweden's famous artists, Eagle -Eye Cherry. He is Eagle -Eye's favourite artistand they sound alike as well."

Currently playing at: Radio 21 /Brussels, Oui FM/Paris, Radio FranceLe Mouv'/Toulouse, P5 Radio Stockholm/Stockholm.

REAMONNJOSEPHINE(Virgin)Release date: August 28 (Germany)

Reamonn, formed at theend of 1998, comprisefour German instrumen-talists and an Irish

singer. The band had immediate success withtheir first single Supergirl-released in Ger-many last March-which sold more than350,000 copies according to Virgin. The followup single, Josephine, a more relaxed song thanthe highly emotional Supergirl, came out atthe end of August and quickly gained radioattention across Germany. The appeal of Rea-monn's music is it's immediacy and fervour.The band like to make music that reflects theirlives-a mix of passion, energy, harmonies andnoise. Their producer, UK -based Steve Lyon,has successfully worked with acts such asDepeche Mode, The Cure, and Paradise Lost.Reamonn are the first German band Lyon hasworked with. Bernd Albrecht, head of music ofAlternative ORB FRITZ/Potzdam says: 'Wehave been playing Josephine for a pretty longtime now. Its easy going guitar -pop feel, withan edge, fits well into our freestyle format.Although we don't believe the song will havethe same huge success as Supergirl, it's beenwell received by our listeners and is oftenbeing requested."

Dance BeatThe weekly dance chart comment by Harald Roth

Going back to her roots is nothing new for theever evolving Madonna (pictured during an earlyincarnation). This time she has returned to herdance music roots, in addition to her coiffeur, and

it's proved to be a good move. Music(Maverick/Warner) climbs the finalnotch this week to become the 40thNo.1 in the history of the chart.

Eighteen years after her firstdance chart number one in theUS-Everybody (Sire)-Madonnanow has a worldwide hit and thecut features on 18 out of the 23charts that contribute to the

European Dance Traxx (debuting in Austria andSpain this week).

Only one track moves into the top ten. ATFCpresents Onephatdeeva's Bad Habit (Defected)jumps from 11 to seven due to heavy sales. Thisrepresents progress for the act, whose last trackIn And Out Of My Life peaked at 11 last January.

Aussie duo Madison Avenue are in the fast laneto the top with the sophomore Who The Hell Are You(Vicious Grooves). Currently favoured in The UK,Scandinavia and the Czech Republic, a predictedhigh entry in the German sales chart should in turnsend the cut into the Traxx top ten next week.

Italian act Floorfilla's Anthem (DFC/ExpandedMusic) series continues and becomes ever moresuccessful. Anthem #1 didn't make the Traxx 40,but #2 reached 36 at the end of last January and#3 peaked at 20 last May. The current edition,Anthem #4, soars from 33 to 15 this week. Thetrack performs well in its home market, Germanyand Austria, as well as in the Italian dance trackfriendly country of France.

UK DJ Sonique's It Feels So Good (Serious)drops out of the chart's top ten this week.However, her new track, Sky (Serious), scores thehighest new entry at 30. The UK and tranceyNorway are the current supporters, but DJs inother territories are sure to reach for it shortly.

Germany's act Andre Tanneberger aka ATBteams up with York on The Fields of Love (Kontor)and it looks set to enter the chart next week.Fellow German DJ Tomcraft's Silence (Kosmo) isanother contender.
