Commercial Radio has a history of trying to get out of its local content quotas, and its latest attempts have been rewarded with a new commercial radio code of practice exempting any obligations to play Australian music on digital radio.

Emma Ayres from ABC Classic FM is looking for recordings of school music groups – this looks like an open invitation to get some exposure if you have a great music program, orchestra, choir or chamber group.

Eastside Fm in Sydney have an interesting initiative to get more young people in the driver’s seat as presenters and producers of jazz radio programs. It is led by a group of volunteer broadcasters from the station that have seen a need for more young people to engage with the music and the medium of radio.  They are looking for high school students and young adults with an interest in this music to become involved.

This is specific to the Eastern Suburbs of Sydney, but it might inform people wanting to do similar things (for any genre of music) around the country, particular in community radio.
