Jottings of note:

 

Broad Purview

Jonathan Peck has joined PRX as Senior Director, Broadcast & Podcast Marketing. He comes from stints at WBUR and (most recently) WAMO where he did audience development. According to PRX he will “serve as a close collaborator to departments across PRX, including station services, as well as to external production partners and broadcast partners across the country.” PRX podcasts reach 64-million listeners a month, and its radio distribution reaches 8.5-million.

 

Bleu

Spotify unleashed a shocking blue logo for its new instagram “spotifynews” account. “Shocking blue” isn’t a color; it’s just shocking that the green brand identification which has burned into our retinas for years is … different. See it in action HERE.
