RAP-CD-logo-2Welcome to the July 2012 R.A.P. CD! We kick things off with this month's Editor's Choice Award winner, a nicely done piece of creative from Carl Magnuson at Social Radio to launch an online station they've set up to feature their new player software. Dave Foxx keeps it sizzling on track 2 with audio for this month's Production 212 column. Promos are on tracks 3 through 7, and commercials are on tracks 8 through 22. Track 13 is another award winner from students at SAIT Polytechnic, a PSA that won that category at the Broadcast Educators Association of Canada. Track 23 features a couple of imaging pieces that utilize the audio from a YouTube video that went viral about a boy learning to ride a bike. Tracks 24 and 25 are some ID montages, and we wrap it up with a gem from Al Peterson at Radio America, commemorating the recent 5th anniversary of Senator Larry Craig's arrest for lewd conduct at the St. Paul airport. Al adds: "Vocal-zapped version of 'Claire' by Gilbert O'Sullivan, with 3-part harmony, effects from Sound Ideas, and a clip of Krusty the Clown."
