About This Release

Released on September 8, 2006, Vanguard 06/36 captures a week when American radio programming reflected an unusually broad range of musical styles. Produced by Radio Ventures for radio professionals, the Vanguard series supplied broadcasters with newly released singles and radio edits from major record labels, allowing programmers to evaluate tracks across multiple formats from a single promotional disc.

The selection illustrates the musical diversity of the period. Contemporary R&B and hip-hop are represented by Justin Timberlake, Beyoncé, Janet, Akon, and Lady Sovereign, while alternative and indie rock appear through Beck, The Raconteurs, OK Go, She Wants Revenge, The Rapture, and Deftones. The disc also includes country from Keith Urban, adult contemporary by Aaron Neville, and pop recordings from Christina Aguilera, Paris Hilton, and Ashley Parker Angel, reflecting the increasingly fragmented landscape of U.S. radio formats during the mid-2000s.

Historically, this issue documents a period when digital music distribution was rapidly transforming the recording industry while radio remained a primary platform for promoting new releases. The collection combines established international stars with emerging artists who were building careers through commercial radio exposure, providing an informative snapshot of American radio programming in late 2006.

Collector’s Note

OK Go – “Here It Goes Again” became one of the defining viral music videos of the early YouTube era. Released in 2006, its now-famous choreography performed on synchronized treadmills transformed the song into an international success and demonstrated how online video could dramatically expand a recording’s audience, marking an important moment in the relationship between popular music and digital media.
