Happy Black Friday and Holiday Season. Broadtime is super excited to have added so many stations in the 4th Quarter. We are also super excited to reach out to everyone with a special Holiday Program offer. Additionally, we have made all the Black Friday releases extra visible on our stations and websites this year with a dedicated listing.

BROADTIME HOLIDAY PROGRAM OFFERING

The traffic to our websites and our record store customers is dramatically increased during the holiday season and with the Record Store Day Black Friday Releases. As a way to say thanks to the labels we have worked with this year, we would like to offer to re-run any program from this year from Black Friday through the end of the year for a special reduced price.  We will be limited to how many slots we can run though we want to be able to help you be in front of holiday shoppers. We would also be willing to be aggressive for any labels that are new to working with us. Be on the lookout for the offer in proposal form.


NEW BPM INTERFACE & CUSTOMERS

Our new interface is very friendly to the types of label assets we regularly promote. It's really exciting to bring things that are really important front and center on the listening and discovery experience. We are able to promote the store brand in a much more creative way and call out titles that have assets in more places.

The Home screen now has a WATCH VIDEOS button and Videos now play full screen before the album preview.

Some new features include:

Full Length Previews Green Tag
• Front & Center Videos before preview
• Store branded interface
Super fast native scrolling
Scrollable Artist Discography

INTRONAUT - The Direction Of Last Things

INTRONAUT - The Direction Of Last ThingsINTRONAUT - The Direction Of Last Things - Century MediaINTRONAUT - The Direction Of Last Things
Intronaut's new album, The Direction Of Last Things, is, in their own words, “our most technical, brutal, catchy, and straight up fearless.” For a band that’s re-written the rules on technicality and brutality over the course of five albums—2013’s Habitual Levitations (Instilling Words with Tones) sent fans and critics alike in an Intronaut-rules-all frenzy—such a statement is either truth or insanity. We’ll side on truth.

SWALLOW THE SUN - Songs From The North I, II & IIISWALLOW THE SUN - Songs From The North I, II & III - Century MediaSWALLOW THE SUN - Songs From The North I, II & III
Swallow The Sun main songwriter and guitarist Juha Raivio comments on the triple-album concept: "Making a triple album in this godforsaken digital and modern day and age...Many will say it's madness. I say it is to bring worth, heart and respect back into the music and to the album format where it belongs. This should never turn into a shallow fast food industry where music is only downloaded one song at a time."
