Congratulations to the winners of the 2012 Zeitfunk Awards!

We’ve finally combed through our statistics. Who is the coveted Most Licensed Producer? What about the Station that Licensed the Most in 2012? For our newcomers, check out our “top new artists” categories like Most Licensed Debut Group. Find out all that and more!

Thank you for making 2012 such an impressive and record-breaking year at PRX. We would give you ALL an award if we had that many trophies.

No red carpet or fancy dresses required — our annual Zeitfunk Awards Ceremony is entirely virtual. Attend now to see who got which silly trophy and to read short ‘n’ sweet acceptance speeches from PRX producers and listeners.

Congrats to all!

Each spring we release the results of the “mostiest” stations, producers, pieces, and listeners for the previous calendar year, then crown them with first-place Zeitfunk status and a fabulous trophy.

We also present the results of other highly licensed, commented, and listened-to pieces and producers. It’s like a zeitgeist, only funkier, and a great way to learn about what’s popular on PRX. Check out the results now.

Stay tuned for the awards ceremony to see who wins the rabbit trophy and other surprises.

Zeitfunk 2007

Genevieve posted on Friday, February 1st, 2008 | Blog, Press Releases, Zeitfunk | No Comments

The Zeitfunk results are in! 2007 was a truly exciting year for PRX. More pieces were licensed by stations in 2007 than any previous year: over 8,000. PRX attracted 14,079 new members, and racked up over 1,000 new reviews.

Thousands of public radio fans helped us find three of the “hostiest” new talents through the Public Radio Talent Quest. And we re-launched the Generation PRX site so it’s more interactive and encourages social networking among the dozens of youth radio groups already participating.

Complete Zeitfunk 2007 Results

Some observations: As with last year, the top three or so in each category were very clear winners; after that, we had many tied places. Below you will see the top ten winners listed in most categories. Some categories only have two, three, or five places. We did this to accommodate the large gaps after clear winners, when there were more than four users or pieces tied for the same place.

We also added a few new categories this year: Most Favorited Pieces, Most Reviewed Youth-Produced Pieces, and Top Debut Indies. The Top Debut Indies are the producers and producer groups who joined PRX in 2007 and had the most pieces licensed.
