Ruido Blanco: Media Broadcast de rock y cultura alternativa

Iniciará transmisiones formalmente en Agosto

John Paul Esteves Castillo   Reportero   murrianose@gmail.com

En las instalaciones de We Rock, escuela de profesionalización de música, se realizó una conferencia de prensa para anunciar a Ruido Blanco, media broadcast que rescata la radio FM en formato digital y que servirá principalmente para difundir la escena del rock mexicano y alternativo, apoyado por grandes de la radio como Alfredo Martell, Olivia Luna y Lucila Zetina, que anunciaron que Ruido Blanco comenzará a transmitir programas a mediados de Agosto.

Dr. Shenka de Panteón Rococó fue invitado como vocero y representante de todas las bandas que necesitan un espacio para darse a conocer a más público.

La plataforma digital www.ruidoblanco.fm y sus redes sociales /@ruidoblancofm es el futuro del género en la radio, según Martell, ya que no sólo emitirán audio, sino podcasts y video de los grupos y artistas invitados; además, cuentan con un gran equipo de escritores detrás.

Shenka refirió el valor de la pluralidad y la coexistencia para llevar a cabo un proyecto y señaló que es una realidad el hecho de no difundir bandas en la actualidad con la suficiente importancia, por lo que Ruido Blanco es la opción como plataforma de noveles talentos.

Olivia dijo que Ruido Blanco servirá para apoyar la escena nacional sobre todo, por lo que están abiertos a escuchar nuevas bandas sin dejar de lado a las que ya están establecidas, generar compromiso no solamente con la audiencia, pero con los futuros músicos.

Por su parte, Lucila Zetina, que ha coincidido en proyectos con Martell y Olivia, en Radioactivo y Orbita, que inició su carrera en Rock101 y  que es parte de mix-up, dijo que el propósito de Ruido Blanco es hacer diferencia y ser un punto de encuentro con las nuevas generaciones.

We Rock es un espacio en el que se imparten clínicas de rock por expertos como Randy, Panchito Figueroa, Claudio (Radio Kaos, Botas Negras), Isma de Los Daniels y Poncho Toledo, entre otros, en donde también dan consejos sobre como hacer música. También se dedican a la profesionalización de staffs e ingeniería de audio o enseñan a como manejar una plataforma como www.ruidoblanco.fm

Poncho habló de la identidad del rock en México, que varía del concepto de USA en cuanto a la libertad de incluir cualquier ritmo en el mismo, por su facultad integrativa de varias culturas.

Ruido Blanco a través de su página oficial www.ruidoblanco.fm iniciará desde hoy un retro timing para el inicio de transmisiones con locutores, aunque ya suena música continuamente. Proximamente anunciarán su barra programática y demás locutores para mediados de Agosto. Su programación incluirá contenido alternativo y de contracultura como skate, BMX, graffiti, cultura ecológica y un especial con perrhijos, página de fb dedicada a los perros y sus espacios de esparcimiento, entre otras cosas.

Ruido Blanco se convierte entonces en un espacio abierto a cualquier propuesta por lo que pueden enviar sus demos, vox y curriculums a ruido@ruidoblancofm

The FIA World Endurance Championship (WEC) has confirmed a new long-term broadcast partnership with American cable and satellite TV giant, Velocity.  Part of Discovery Inc, and specializing in automotive programming, the agreement gives Velocity and Motor Trend the right to show live coverage in the USA and Canada of all qualifying sessions and races from the world’s leading endurance racing series which includes the prestigious and globally recognized 24 Hours of Le Mans.  Coverage, which will be in association with Discovery Inc-owned Eurosport, begins from the season-opening Total 6 Hours of Spa-Francorchamps in Belgium on 4-5 May.  Velocity will broadcast live coverage during the 2018-2019 Super Season, with the action available across the channels, as well as Motor Trend’s mobile app and its website. Aimed primarily at an "upscale male" audience, the network focuses on automotive-oriented programming and other shows of interest to its viewership, very much in line with the target audience of the WEC and its partners.  Gérard Neveu, CEO of the FIA World Endurance Championship: “We are very happy to have reached this agreement with Velocity, a channel which is available to more than half the households throughout the USA. The USA is a key market for the WEC and over 65 million people will now have access to it, offering our sport of endurance racing an extraordinary opportunity to engage with mass audiences.” Robert S. Scanlon, President of Velocity and TEN Video Content: “Without question the 24 Hours of Le Mans is the most iconic auto racing event in the world. Eurosport produces world-class live coverage of the event every year. Nowhere else in the U.S. or Canada can fans access their best-in-class coverage, and get a broader, richer Le Mans experience than with Velocity on television, MotorTrend.com online and the Motor Trend app on connected devices.”

TV broadcast team announced  The FIA World Endurance Championship is delighted to announce that one of the modern greats of endurance racing, Allan McNish, will be a key part of its refreshed broadcast team for 2017.  The former Audi Sport driver retired from the cockpit at the end of 2013, and has since used his decades of experience, natural charm and communication skills to become an in-demand expert commentator and analyst for the BBC and Sky Sports in the UK, SPEED TV in the USA and Star TV across Asia.  Allan McNish, who will be at 6 WEC rounds, will be joined in the commentary booth by two extremely experienced, well-respected, and multi-discipline commentators who will, between them, cover all eight rounds of the WEC – the 24 Hours of Le Mans broadcast package being a separate entity.

Toby Moody is a British sports broadcaster who has commentated extensively on both two and four-wheeled world championships, and who brings with him decades of experience and skills in live event, play-by-play presentation. In 2015 he covered the WEC season for Quest TV in the UK, and for this season will cover the 6 Hours of Silverstone, the 6 Hours of Nürburgring and the 6 Hours of Bahrain.

The voice of Briton Martin Haven will be well-known to endurance fans far and wide as he has covered endurance racing for the last 20 years for broadcasters in Europe and the USA, particularly for Eurosport at the 24 Hours of Le Mans. His love of motorsport and the passionate way in which he conveys that is evident in his commentary, and his experience covers many motorsport disciplines plus winter sports. Martin will cover the WEC 6 Hours of Spa-Francorchamps, 6 Hours of Mexico, 6 Hours of COTA, 6 Hours of Fuji and 6 Hours of Shanghai.

The team will be fully supported from the pits and paddock by WEC regular Louise Beckett who returns to the championship for the fifth year and whose cool, unruffled presence brings real added value to the broadcast team.  As well as covering the whole of the European Le Mans Series, Graham Goodwin will also be part of this new commentary team, and will be present to strengthen the WEC TV broadcasts throughout the 2017 season.  Gérard Neveu, CEO of the WEC: “We believe that one of the reasons for the WEC’s current success in today’s motorsport world is that we try not to rest on our laurels; we are always looking to innovate and re-energise the championship in every area.  “John Hindhaugh, who has been our lead commentator until now, has decided to return to his first love of radio commentary, and we want to thank him for the great job he has done, and for his contribution to the championship. We are sure we will have an opportunity to work together again in the future but, for this year, we are very enthusiastic about our new broadcast team and the season ahead.”  The experts’ commentaries cover the qualifying session and entire 6-hours of racing for each event, and can be found on the FIAWEC App and live on the new WEC website which will be launched at the 6 Hours of Silverstone.  To follow the WEC Broadcast team on social media:  Allan McNish – Twitter @allanmcnish, Instagram allanmcnish  Toby Moody – Twitter @tobymoody, Instagram tobymoody  Martin Haven – Twitter @MartinHaven, Instagram martinhaven  Louise Beckett – Twitter @LouiseeB, Instagram louiseeb99 Graham Goodwin - Twitter @dsceditor, Instagram dsceditor
