Q&A Continued from page 28

I'd like to talk about the Sugar radio project, which is Who's Who At Sugar now under development. What prompted you to expand into radio? Sugar has its own system of executive checks and The same logic that prompted us to do everything balances, with Filippo Sugar as president of the else: a pole of activities built around music. We believe overall holding and publishing company, Sugar - that there aren't enough local radio stations doing quality music, for a metropolitan audience with more music, and MD of the record label, Sugar, S.r.L, international tastes. We're learning another craft, but while his mother, Caterina Caselli, is president of one that is closely connected to music. We won't neces- MD of the holding company. sarily broadcast our own music.

It is active in retail, with the two large Messaggerie Musicali stores in Milan and Rome and on the Internet via Sugarnet, which also includes Sugar's new radio venture. Here's how the man- agement team is organized: Andrea Contromano is executive director of the holding company, Sugarmusic, while, at the record label, Monica Dahl is in charge of international Giancarlo Turola Mauro calchi exploitation and Roberto Magrini runs the Ital- ian operations. ( Magrini was previously MD at S4 Music, the former RTL label that was purchased by Sony Music. He joined Sugar in mid- 2002). lvfipp, rnidar Giancarlo Turola is MD of both the Sugarnet Internet operation and the Messaggerie Musicali basis, the Messaggerie Musicali stores are run by Alfredo Conti, while It's a station that's designed to make music "more retail division. On a day -to- noble." It's a question of quality, like our two retail Mauro Calchi has a similar role at Sugarnet, handling both its Internet and radio projects. stores: We prefer to have two good shops, rather than 20 average ones. Likewise with radio: We'll have two flagship stations, one in Milan, Radio Milano Uno, and one in Rome, Radio Roma Uno.

It goes without saying that it will also be an Internet radio outlet? Yes, it will be run by Sugarnet, the same company that does our Web site. Are Proud To Work With Is the plan to become a national network eventually, or will you stay local? No, the costs of a national network are very high, and we can't afford them. Also, we'd be up against competitors who know what they're doing. Had there been a gap in the market, then yes, but we don't see a gap in the network market. We do, however, see one in the local market.

What would be a typical record that you'd play? Well, we know from our record shops what sort of records people are buying in Milan and Rome. That's important. In the daytime, we'll aim for a young audi- ence, while, in the evening, we want to do music that isn't heard so much on the radio. For example, if we want to try and present opera music in an interesting way, likewise ethnic and world music. The evening will be a time for reflection, while the daytime will be more commercial and aggressive, but there'll also be space for the sort of interesting new artists who find it hard to get airplay on other stations.

What about DJs; will they have a role to play? There'll be very little talking! It will be radio with Publisher In The Great Tradition very few words! A

WORK' FORCE: With the top three songs frozen in place on The Billboard Hot 100, Eminem retains his crown for an 11th week with "Lose Yourself' (Shady/Interscope), and Missy "Misdemeanor" Elliott is the runner-up for the 10th consecutive week with "Work It" (the Gold Mind/Elektra). That puts Elliott's single into a tie with Foreigner's 1981 hit "Waiting for a Girl Like You" as the longest- running No. 2 hit of the rock era. There is one song that had a longer visit at second place, but it was a No. 1 single -"Exhale (Shoop Shoop)" by Whit- ney Houston.
