Urban genres, from ‘90s R&B to today’s hits hold a strong mainstream position. More urban artists dominate international charts. Especially young people in big cities identify with this music style and are drawn to platforms that embrace this sound. This new urban package was strategically developed to reflect that international trend.
Wietze Bastiaansen, head of audio design at NPO FunX, explains: "The visual branding of FunX got a new look this summer, and with PURE Jingles, our sound is now fully up-to-date and fresh.
Our slogan 'Your City Your Sound' resonates fantastically in the new package. PURE understands our sound like no other, which is why it’s always a pleasure to work with them."
For NPO FunX, we reinvented the iconic jingle. The familiar audio logo remains recognizable, but the new idents end with strong voiceovers and a sonic ID that emphasizes the ‘X’ of FunX. This makes the package highly versatile for radio use and adaptable to various musical keys.
Musically, the compositions are inspired by popular styles like reggaeton, hip-hop, amapiano, and more. With freestyle vocals and contributions from artists, we’ve ensured the package reflects the urban lifestyle and sound.
