The service

Background music, done properly

Background music is a commercially cleared, curated audio service: the right music for your brand, played in the right zones at the right times, with the schedules and controls to run it.

What's included

100M+ tracks
A commercially cleared catalogue for business use, plus more than 2,500 ready-made playlists.

Playlists chosen for your concept, audience and price point, refreshed regularly by real curators.
Zones
Organise the estate by company, location and zone, with owner, manager and staff permissions.

In-store radio & promos
Station-style programming with your offers, loyalty prompts and campaign messages between tracks.
Streaming & support

Built for business

Find, schedule and control every sound.

Start with a ready-made playlist, build a bespoke one, search by genre, mood, business type or season, or import an existing playlist as a reference.

Discover your way
Browse by genre, mood, decade, sound, business type or season, with explicit-content filtering available.
Schedule the day
Set the right programme for each hour, weekday, location and zone, then let it switch automatically.
Set staff permissions
Owners, managers and staff get the controls they need, from estate-wide programming to approved play, skip and volume changes.

Scheduling

The right music, hour by hour.

Plan the atmosphere for every part of the day and week, then let it switch on its own. Each location and zone can run its own schedule, so the lobby, restaurant and gym never sound the same at the same time.

Priced by zone

Everything that comes with every zone.

A zone is one independent audio area with its own music, volume and schedule — so a single-room boutique is one zone, while a hotel sounding its lobby, restaurant and spa is three. Music is priced per zone per month, not per address, and every zone includes the same core service.

Cleared for business
A catalogue licensed for commercial playback, so a personal streaming account never has to carry your venue.
100M+ tracks, 2,500+ playlists
Expertly curated business playlists by mood, genre and venue type, plus the freedom to build your own.
Bring your own playlists
Import the playlists you already use as a starting point and we match them to commercially cleared tracks.
Scheduling that runs itself
Drag and drop opening, peak and evening programmes across the week and let the day change on its own.
Explicit lyric filter
Automatic screening keeps the room brand-safe for customers, families and staff at every hour.
Play and control anywhere
Stream from a phone, tablet, computer, Sonos or a dedicated player, and change the room remotely.
Central management, every zone
Manage all venues and zones in one place, inviting owners, managers and floor staff with their own permissions.
Ad-free, with offline backup
No interruptions between tracks, and downloaded music keeps playing through a temporary internet drop.

Why not just use a consumer app?

Personal streaming subscriptions are licensed for personal listening, not for playing to customers. A business music service supplies music cleared for commercial use, plus zoning, scheduling, promo messaging and support that consumer apps do not offer.
