Una televisione, televisione in senso classico, da vedersi nel salotto di casa, a noi non basta più! Volevamo fare una tv moderna, volevamo una tv ovunque, ricevibile con modalità diversificate e parallele e con quanta più diffusione possibile. DVBT2,WebTV,HBBTV,Social, Vi sembra sufficiente per una televisione musicale? Si, perché Standby Tv è un una televisione musicale nata per tutti coloro che amano veramente la “grande musica”, quella di qualità, dunque non legata a classifiche e scontata attualità… Caratteristiche della programmazione di Standby Television: 24 ore di rotazione musicale, con la grande musica in onda (dalla nascita del rock’n’roll ad oggi), con tutti i grandi classici del rock e del pop, in una programmazione divisa tra giorno e notte ed un flusso musicale in continuo dinamico cambiamento • Rick Hutton e Claudio De Tommasi, tra i fondatori della celebre Videomusic, tornano a presentare insieme grande musica non da uno studio qualsiasi, ma da quegli scenari che hanno visto nascere e crescere il grande rock: le capitali europee della musica ed i luoghi più importanti di Londra, Manchester, Liverpool, Roma, Berlino; e poi la campagna inglese ed irlandese, la Scozia, Amsterdam e Dublino; il paesaggi ideali per lanciare video, fornire approfondimenti e raccontare storie, tra ironia ed informazione. Accanto a loro Valeria Oppenheimer e Roberta Zaino completano ed arricchiscono il quadro con la loro presenza e personalità.
