The volume of contacts matters less than the relevance of targeting and the quality of the package presented to the programmer.
For an artist independent, radio can provide external validation, new opportunities, and additional exposure compared to streaming platforms. However, it requires a clear package, a track ready to be promoted, and consistent targeting.

Programme directors remain independent in their editorial choices: an agency cannot guarantee airplay. Our role is to present the track under the best conditions, to the most pertinent contacts, and then ensure campaign follow-up.
A radio programmer receives many submissions. The difference lies in the suitability of the track, the clarity of the pitch, timing, and the ability to identify outlets genuinely likely to be interested in the project.
This is why we tailor submissions to the musical genre, territory, track format, and the artist's news.
Local and regional FM stations, community, student radio, and thematic web radios. The aim is to focus on editorial coherence rather than mass mailing.
Selection of outlets based on the track's language, genre, and the project's ability to find an audience beyond the French market.
Web radios, thematic networks, and relevant distributors are approached when the project warrants international exposure.
Send us the listening link, your release date, and some information details about the project. The team can advise if radio is the right channel at this stage.
A professional radio campaign is built on a series of straightforward steps: understanding the project, preparing the proposal, targeting, contacting, and following up.
Listen to the track, identify the genre, format, and the markets or editorial lines to prioritise.
Bio, pitch, visuals, technical information, and links are compiled into a clear professional folder.
Radios are selected based on their programming, and each contact is tailored to the project presented.
Considered follow-ups, responses to requests, coordination of potential interviews or editorial opportunities.
Compilation of available feedback and useful recommendations for continued promotion.
There's no need to have a perfect dossier before contacting us. However, the track must be advanced enough for the team to assess its potential and prepare the campaign.
You can also approach radio stations yourself. In this case, the quality of targeting and the dossier matters more than the number of addresses contacted.
A generic email immediately shows that the radio's editorial line hasn't been studied.
The programmer must be able to quickly understand the project, listen to the track, and retrieve essential information.
Local, community, and themed radio stations are often more accessible and coherent for building initial support.
A campaign prepared in advance gives the programmer more time to listen to and integrate the track into their schedule.
Beathoven offers a Visibility & Discovery package at €500 (excluding VAT) and a Radio FM & Web Promotion package at €750 (excluding VAT). The right level depends on the release, schedule, and objectives. You can also present the project to us directly before making a choice.
Depending on the project: local and regional FM radios, themed, community, student, and French or international web radios. The selection depends on the genre, territory, and editorial line of each radio station.
