Background music for businesses that take it seriously
Human-curated, properly licensed, and built to keep playing when your internet doesn't. We serve retail stores, cruise ships, spas, wellness centres, gyms, waiting areas and other commercial venues across the UK.
You've invested in your space, your staff, and your brand. The music should be part of that - not an afterthought left to whoever's on shift, and definitely not Spotify routed through a domestic speaker setup that isn't licensed for commercial use.
What makes us different
Plenty of companies will sell you a music subscription. We're different in six specific ways - three about how the music is chosen, three about how it gets to your venue.
Human-curated music
No swearing, no skips, no AI noise. Real curators pick the music, season by season, vertical by vertical. Different feels for a spa than a gym, different feels for a daytime café than an evening restaurant.
Offline-first reliability
Plays even with no internet - the system caches your scheduled playlists locally. Friday afternoon, broadband drops, music keeps playing. Ideal for venues with limited connectivity, or corporate networks where streaming is restricted during opening hours.
Fully managed
Tell us your hours and your brand. We do the rest. You can use the dashboard yourself if you want to, or you can ignore it entirely and we'll keep the music running.
Smart scheduling
Tell us your hours and your brand. We do the rest. Want the music to change with the weather - no problem! You can use the dashboard yourself if you want to, or you can ignore it entirely and we'll keep the music running.
Add signage or announcements
Music and digital signage in one system. Perfectly synced for promotions, sales, queue announcements, or anything else that needs to interrupt the music briefly.
Local support
Real people on the phone or email when something goes wrong. Based in Cornwall, available across UK trading hours. Not an outsourced ticketing system that replies after 48 hours.
