104.9 rings in 2006 with a new line-up

8 Jan 2006 12:37230 commentsBizLike

Cape Town based radio station 104.9 is shaking things up a bit with a new line-up in 2006. Gavin Meiring, newly appointed CEO of the station, says it's all about 'listening to listeners'.

"104.9 offers Capetonians a place to belong and where they feel at home. It's about fostering and nurturing a friendship with our audience to help us get closer to them. I feel we are hitting the right note after intensive research into defining our perfect music format.

"The music format has been polished from being a primarily jazz radio station when we first launched, to an urban AC format with slight jazz undertones. You will hear all your familiar favourites on the station, with personalities on the station to co-incide with the overall tone of the station."

Newcomer to the station is Ayanda Pini, who started her radio career only four months ago working for a retail radio station. She is doing the graveyard shift at 104.9 - weekdays between 4am and 6am.

People of the Light's Koketso Sachane will switch places with Clarence Ford between 12pm and 3pm weekdays. The programme is primarily music driven interspersed with details on what's topical in Cape Town.

Ford brings his mellow attitude to listeners from 6pm until 10pm (Mondays to Thursdays), and on Fridays the time channel is covered by Bongani Njoli.

e-tv's weatherwoman Saskia Falken will broadcast between 10am and 2pm on Saturdays and Sundays.

	Trevor Francis What are they doing to P4 aagain- This new CEO says his listening to the people, thats bull#!@#$, otherwise he would know the people loves the name "P4 Radio" (they had a public vote a few months agao), so why the change to 104.9 (get real, when you in Bellville it's 102.something). also the music has been urban ac for the last two year ( get real brother) and why move your est DJ Clarence Ford to a later slot? It sickens me when they import people from other cities to run a radio station in CT, when they know nothing about the people, their wants and needs. this "last straw" attempt will break P4's back for sure. Qúestion: where are the guys who took P4 past 300 000 listeners, hey??? Posted on 9 Jan 2006 11:56 Like Reply Report
	Phunk Mandla ???- FYI - The complex that you wrote about Durban having belongs to you CT....it's no wonder Durban is hosting the A1 Grand Prix ....maybe you should think before making such comments! clearly you have no idea that Durban is one of the fastest growing cities of the world. Not to mention the Round the World Clipper Yacht race that stopped over in Durbs (I wonder why CT never got to host that) Now who's inferior. get over yourself.

	Mandla Punk, you so ignorant- CT did not want the A1, they bidding for the F1, don't you read tour news. they also host a leg of the biggest boat race in the word, now do you know what that is? Then they have fashion week, world designer week, etc, etc do you want me to continue? By the way, i'm not from CT, I live in Joburg, spend a few days a month in CT. NOW????

	Mandla- (who started this) @Mr Gavin Meiring, I'll try and put some perspective into it- Okay guys, enough with all the other crap, let’s focus. Gavin Meiring, as I said when you joined P4 Radio, you not able to relate to the station and more importantly the people of CT, cause you don’t understand what makes these people tick, ask 5FM and Metro, they can't penetrate this market, you need to be able to relate to them, ask Neil Johnson, he could never and fucked up badly. You are already making mistakes by letting top DJ’s go and trying to change the music, at this moment that’s the last of your problems. Get all your procedures, policies, behind the scenes staff in order and focus on a three year plan which should include a decent marketing budget and a decent budget for DJ’s. Your current quick fix solution won’t help you at all. Posted on 12 Jan 2006 09:25 Like Reply Report
	GHFM Fan @Mandla- Hear hear dude! I'm backing you 100% on this one. However, if you can remember GHFM a few years ago after they fired Paul Kay and crew. GHFM went down and then their new station manager took over (Helen Graham) and she's from JHB. She really turned the station around and look now. They're touching on 600 000 listeners already (latest RAMS). So i agree with you that Gavin must get his facts straight first but maybe the change won't be that bad either. As long as P4 (or whatever they're called now) just don't lose their identity. Posted on 12 Jan 2006 09:31 Like Reply Report
	Mandla @GHFM fan- My friend, Helen was not the force behind GHFM's revival, it was the vision of a certain Mr Abrahams, who already had the plan in his mind and he needed somebody to implement. Helen was put there to implement, she might not have had the overview radio skills, but she was good at implementing and very pedantic about things, she dotte every i and crossed every t. Besides that, if you have the muscle of the SABC with their big budgets behind you, you can't fail. P4 might not have the muscle to carry their new manager. Also, GHFM's music sound great, but they stll not as great on the programming side, especially their DJ's and also remember, they have not gone back up to the 700 000 mark, yet! i know this because i worked as a business analyst for the SABC. Now my work includes media and although i do monitor media alot, i also travel the country often, which helps me. I hope my views are okay as i never specialised in radio, but i do understand it.

	ZOOMSTER I agree with Mandla... for once- Mandla speaks sense. In terms of business you have to sort out and fine tune everything that makes a a radio station work. Once you've mastered the basics and the ordinary stuff eventually you'll be able to try the extraordinary and grow as an organisation to become a self-running cash cow. Not sure what's going down in Meiring's head but I think he's been in the business long enough to know the right road to take. I'm in no position to tell another man how to do his thing, but I do know that whether you're a commercial radio station or not you need listeners. Money talks and that comes from advertisers who wanna reach out to listeners... and as many of them as possible. So GM needs to refine his basics while he tries to attract listeners; a tough job for this particular new CEO. He's made these changes; I don't listen to P4 so I don't really know the impact it has on the folk of CT and I can't comment on whether it's a good or a bad move; he's chosen his tactic, lets see where it goes... I can't believe how long it's taken to for this forum to come back to the original topic of discussion. Everytime I open this page it looks more and more like a whores nest...

	GHFM Fan @ Mandla- True, Randall's vision clearly made the brand more sellable. BUT apparently Tokyo Sexwhale is the new OWNER of P4 so maybe they're not that broke after all. Where GHFM's music is concerned, I'm actually not a fan of it. Also, I do agree that there are some DJ's who need alot of work and many of the DJ's do not have on-air relationships with their news readers and sports presenters (and that's where I should give Aden and Julian praise). GHFM's music sucks big time. They hardly play the classics - I'm talking about snoop dogg back in the day. But they do play alot of jazz. Who's compiles their music? Do you know perhaps?

	Gavin Meiring Changes on 104.9- In response to the several comments on the site regarding the refresh of 104.9 in Cape Town, I think that this reaction is only to expected from a station whose listener's are so passionate about it's well being. As one of the listeners indicated, obviously I am never going to learn about Cape Town by just visting the G Spot or any other other night spot in the city. I base my infomation on scientific research on the market and this is the basis for any good radio station. Interesting enough the results show that very little needs be done in terms of the music product and a refresh of the name of the station will just change some perceptions that have might have existed with listeners who do not listen to us. We plan to GROW this radio station not CHANGE it. As far as the weekday line up changes are concerned they have come about with consultation and agreement with the presenters concerned and the weekend changes are someting we felt was needed to again increase listeners during that time. By the way I am from Durban not JHB. Posted on 10 Jan 2006 10:57 Like Reply Report

Besides the Kids who love Goodhope FM, we LOVE our station and that is why there was steady growth, the community supported P4 Radio. So, Mr. Meiring it's great of you to take ownership as CEO, so you should, because we will hold you accountable at the end of the day.

	Staarr Any change is good as far as P4 is concerned.- Anyone who has lived in cape town since p4's inception knows that P4 had stagnated growth wise. These changes that have been implemented by gavin are in my view the kick in the butt that p4 requires in-order to realise its full potential as a commercial station. Let us look at the two primetime Jocks that everyone is complaining about, namely: Aden and Clarence. Aden has hosted the Breakfast show on P4 for over seven years and in that period has never managed to create the no1 breakfast show in cape town. Even when Good hope was in its slump he never managed to catapult himself to the no1 spot instead Nic Marais from Kfm kicked his behind. In my opinion, if you cant shape up over a period of seven years then its time to ship out brother. Then there is Clarence Ford, granted I think that he has a huge following in Cape town because of his years at goodhope and the countless slots he has been on at p4 since its inception. I think that clarence was not well suited to a lunchtime show and the slot that he is on now better suits his personality. Having said that I don't think that Koketso will work well on this slot either because of his somewhat laid back personality which is very similar to clarence. Gavin and Selwyn are then left with the task of finding a suitable lunchtime host in 2006. Maybe the new girl Ayanda could do it who knows. Here is a thought, Bongani Njoli did lunchtime pretty well at goodhope back in the day, maybe Gavin should call on his expertise. AS for people hating on Gavin because he is from Durban. Before all of you start shooting off at him give him a chance because I think he knows what he is doing. look at this man's credentials and what he did for East coast radio in Durban. Today East Coast is one of the premier brands in SA radio partly because of him. Before we let emotion and our proudly Capetonian attitudes cloud our judgement, let's sit back and watch a station literary fly to the top. Overall I think the changes will be good for p4. I'm waiting to here though about Aden's replacement. This one could be very tricky. Posted on 10 Jan 2006 14:38 Like Reply Report

	Albert (again) You make no sense Staarr or whover you really are- First of all Aden’s only been at P4 since 2001, so get your facts right. Second of all, everybody knows Nic Marais show was “rated” the biggest because of KFM’s footprint which stretches as far as George. Aden was technically hosted the biggest breakfast show broadcasting to Urban Cape Town, I know that because Aldrin Naidoo of the Argus ran a story about radio stations at the time. Let’s know our facts Staarr or Gavin or whoever you want to be. The only thing I will say made sense in your sentence, was moving Bongani to a weekday slot, other than that you make no sense. P4 always done well, even in bad times, we loved and supported the station. by the way, this is not a CT Vs Durban thing, Gavin is getting his chance and we support him becausewe want P4 to work.

	Staarr @albert and everyone- hey man don't get it twisted, I'm definately not gavin meiring. I'm who I am and I think my opinion is valid regardless of my oversight in facts. Even if Aden has worked for the station since 2001, my point still stands that he has to go. Five years is an awfully long time for someone to have a breakfast show that is techically no1 even though the other stations are not doing well at the time. My point is that from a commercial standpoint Aden's show has become a liability. It does not make sense for any radio boss to keep paying a jock exorbitent amounts of money when he is not pulling in the numbers. Aden's show was just not growing and for this reason I think he should be off air or be allocated another slot where he can re-invent himself. I have nothing against the man, i think he is very talented. However it is a pity that he did not convince more Capetonians over this 5 year period of his afore mentioned talents on the breakfast show. I hope this makes some sense to you Albert and perhaps clarifies my standpoint on p4 and its recent changes. Let's not get personal and emotive about this issue as Kashif has decided to. And to Mandla pls dude throw your conspiracy theories out of the window. There is no plot here from any East coast cronnies to take over cape town and your beloved station p4. We are all trying to grow here and this forum is a space for all of us to engage with each others ideas. Posted on 10 Jan 2006 15:45 Like Reply Report

	Staarr @albert- Again I have to say I am not Gavin. Pls Gavin post a comment to vindicate me here. Albert I dont disagree with you, Aden was huge. However with all the opportunity and marketing support he had at his disposal, he could have been bigger.He was big with a certain section of the population. When the other stations literary gave away their audiences through faults of their own, he should have said thank you and took this opportunity and ran with it. But instead he still remained somewhat mediocre with all of these chances of absolute domination presented to him. Maybe it was not solely his fault, perhaps management has to shoulder some of the blame on this who knows. I wish him all the best of luck in what ever he does. I still mantain that he could do much better in another slot. Here is a thought, maybe he should replace the slickman lee downs. Maybe that will make you happy Albert.

	djzj Anyone here unerstand radio?- I love the maturity on this forum between GHFM and 104.9 listeners. If you look at ECR's RAMS the last two years I think Gavin has a bit of an idea what he is doing with the station. You also can't compare the station to GoodHope. I would say GoodHope is in the lead when it comes to production, personality and marketing their brand. Let's see what Gavin comes up with in time. Posted on 10 Jan 2006 17:17 Like Reply Report

	ZOOMSTER Do your thing Mr. Meiring... - People... grow up! A few changes here and there won't change the overall sound of the station, it'll just refresh it. The fresher 104.9 sounds the more listeners you'll attract. Anyone who knows the smallest thing about radio will tell you that more listeners means more everything: money, music, advertisers, concerts, bigger competitions; EVERYTHING. The size of a station depends on listeners and Meiring wants to take your station, the station that you've come to love and enjoy and move it to the millions. The changes wouldn't have been this subtle if he didn't have the capetonians best interests at heart. GHFM may think they have the formula, but even if you're on the right track, if you just sit there you will get run over. PEACE! Zoomster Posted on 10 Jan 2006 15:03 Like Reply Report

	MARKETING MAN P4 PLAYING OUTSIDE OF LICENSE- P4 is playing music so far outside of it's license agreement that it would only take a few letters from their competitors to ICASA to have serious penalties imposed or even their license revoked. They started off playing "smooth jazz" and soon enough realised that this particular market was too small and then started copying GHFM's format. Bad move considering that GHFM can't even get this format right and has been almost consistently losing listeners over the last few years. P4 and GHFM both have bad management, personal empires, DJ's with nothing to say and no originality... Cape Town radio really offers nothing to the late 20's early 30's person.

	MARKETING MAN MARKETING MAN RETORTS- Dear "non-marketing man". If you look at my comment you'll notice that I said "has been almost consistently losing listeners over the last few years". This means, dear non-marketing man, that they have radically decreased in audience figures since about 3 or 4-years ago. If you understood marketing you would realise that one never merely look at one research period, but rather a trend to establish an overall view. In this case, one would look at where the stations were after significant change in the market place (e.g. new licenses granted, broadcast policy reviews etc) and where they are now. There have been no significant changes over the past 3-4 years (apart from amendments to the research methodology) so extrapolation can still be done and this clearly indicates that GHFM for one is on a radical decline. Now, go away and stop bothering the marketing people and stop calling people "idiots". It's not nice and it shows a lack of communication skill. Posted on 11 Jan 2006 09:21 Like Reply Report
	non marketing man retorting retort- where are you getting your research from, the 1980's. Both stations over the last 18 months have shown increases with Goodhope showing the most progressive growth. Should'nt that be showing up in your research. Also if you know the RAMS you will probably have noticed that the moving up and down of listernership runs in a consistend trend over certain periods, as with most stuff. Hey but what do I know, im just an average Joe from the street, no marketing degree. Marketing people think they know the "people", in actual fact you are probably so far away from the people that you so called are trying to sell/market too. Like using people with a "so called Coloured voice" from J'burg to sell to people in CPT.

In Cape Town Radio I don't see anyone doing a good job at the 1049 breakfast slot other than the breakfast jocks at ghfm and Kfm. If Meiring wants a big gun from Cape Town he will have to poach either Nigel Pierce, Nic Marais or Ryann O'connor. I dont see how any of these 3 guys I've mentioned would leave their comfortable posts unless it were for more money. It seems then that Gavin meiring has a tough assignment on his hands. I'll suggest to Gavin that he checksout this guy on 567, Tom London. Tom does the Weekend Breakfast on 567 and 702 and I must say that kid impresses me. He is also familiar with Cape town audiences.

	Staarr @GHFM fan- The grapevine at the Sabc at the moment seems to suggest that Gillman is on his way out of 5. Remember that last he renewed his contract with 5 to expire this coming April. Many insiders say that his contract might not be renewed for the breakfast show. But again its just speculation. Maybe Robbie and Zoomster might be on the money about Gillman on 1049. However his contract with 5 expires in April and Aden is leaving at the end of the Month, a bit of a problem there. Posted on 11 Jan 2006 15:17 Like Reply Report
	GHFM Fan @Staar- No u check, Gillman has his own company and sumtimes people leave their day jobs so that they can concentrate on a business that's actually making money especially if you've been in the industry so long and there's nothing more to do. Catching my drift here??? Posted on 11 Jan 2006 15:20 Like Reply Report
	ZOOMSTER Define Best.- 5fm the best? What do you base your comment on... your personal opinion or radio business facts? Everybody relax; this is not bullying... just wondering. Posted on 11 Jan 2006 15:19 Like Reply Report
	Jason Rudi- Why are guys like Nate Dogg not on radio?- yes, where are all these guys and why don't they use them? Nate=Dogg was a boy from the Plain who rocked CT with his pound, Rude Boy, Jules etc. why is he not being used? Posted on 11 Jan 2006 15:23 Like Reply Report
	Staarr No need to teach old doggs new tricks.- Nate Dogg and all of those other guys were pretty good at the time but in my humble opinion they are past their sell by dates. For-instance Jacaranda tried Rob vega very recently on Weekend breakfast just after highveld had done the same. Needless to say he did not crack it because he is no longer at both stations. Radio has changed in a big way and if gavin hired any of these past Ghfm jocks, he would be doing a dis-service to 1049 and its progressive listeners. Posted on 11 Jan 2006 15:32 Like Reply Report
	I-pod's rule CT DJ's- Ok so finally somebody's adressing our huge problem we have in the mother city - good on air talent!! Pierce is so over-rated and screaming in the morning ( except from a passionate morning workout) really isn't my thing, Marais - too soft and girlish, Downs - very knowledgeable with the industry but way over-ripe, Barnard - real FOSSIL - take a retirement plan at your b and b bru! O'Conner - worth listening to at least, Jeanie D - so caught up in herself???? Where can we get consistant talent? Not 5, Cliff sucks and as for Zuraida? Meisie please! I've had more fun watching paint dry!!!! Posted on 11 Jan 2006 15:40 Like Reply Report
	GHFM Fan Dude I agree- Zuraida has the personality of a watermelon! There's nothing there but juice and pips. Gareth is dik boring (yawn)! Personally I'm digging the boys - Ian F and Sasha - and koula on 5fm. On GHFM, Ryan really makes the drive home entertaining. I'm loving Tyrone as well. Posted on 11 Jan 2006 15:42 Like Reply Report
	Staarr Hold up on the Zuraida bashing.- We get it guys you dont like the woman. Why insult her so badly. If you dont like a jock you have the power to switch off and not spew such vernom at them inside a forum. Posted on 11 Jan 2006 15:48 Like Reply Report
	Staarr Gillman a bit of these GHFm fan.- If you have been listening to Gillman you would agree that he has been a bit mediocre these days. he is still going on an old formula and in my opinion needs to re-invent himself fast. otherwise he is running the risk of being absolete in a few years time if he continues with Breakfast at 5. he needs to move over to the drive perhaps.

	GHFM Fan @ Zoomie- Radio bus facts. There's a mag which i read late last year and it stated that 5fm is the best with metro in at a close 2nd. reason why 5fm is so successful is bcoz of their variety - they play hip hop, r&b, rock, dance, kwaito and they are national whereas metro only plays a certain genre of music. Posted on 11 Jan 2006 15:34 Like Reply Report
	Staarr @ghfm fan- That magazine you read man had its facts twisted. As far as I know 5 and metro despite their national status had their butts kicked by Jacaranda and East Coast who raked in over 3 hundred million last year alone. Gavin meiring instrumental in East coast's top notch status amd now he is at 1049 to do the same. Posted on 11 Jan 2006 15:42 Like Reply Report
	ZOOMSTER GHFM Fan- Alot of stations play that variety. They're catering to a national audience; they have to. Anyway, I do listen to 5 from time to time and I appreciate their diversity in music as an SA Top 40 national station, but their content "can like to be kak" if you feel me... as a revenue generating business on the other hand, they're not doing that well.

	ZOOMSTER Starr... Get an iPod...- You want to see them? Get an iPod, download a podcast and a photo of Zuraida, assign her pic to the downloaded podcast, update your iPod, and knock yourself out. Podcasting is the next big thing in radio. It's a great substitue to old boring DJ's that blame the momentum of their shows on budgets. Posted on 11 Jan 2006 16:16 Like Reply Report

Maybe a lineup like this: -6 to 10 Mark Gillman -10 to 1 Aden, with Lisa Chiat -1 to 4 Clarence -4 to 7 Lee - 7 to 10 Natano - 10 to 2 Bongani Wow, that will have the P4 people and other's listening!!
