Mood Media
In-Store Music for Retail and Hospitality
About Mood Media
Mood Media is the largest provider of background music to commercial locations worldwide, and the company that absorbed Muzak -- the business that effectively invented in-store music programming. It builds and manages music programmes for retail chains, hotels, restaurants, gyms and similar environments across a very large installed base of locations.
This is commercial public performance, not consumer streaming, and the licensing is correspondingly different. The exposure is incidental but enormous in aggregate: a customer hears a track while shopping, and brand-matched programming means catalogue that suits a particular retail environment can be placed widely.
Audicient delivers your catalogue to Mood Media with the rights and mood metadata its programming teams work from, making it available for in-store and hospitality use.
Delivering to Mood Media
Commercial Public Performance
Licensing covers in-store and hospitality use, a category with its own rates and entirely separate from consumer streaming.
Very Large Installed Base
Programmes run across retail chains, hotels, restaurants and gyms worldwide, so a single placement reaches many locations.
Mood and Brand Matching
Mood and tempo metadata is delivered, which is what programmers filter on when building music for a particular retail environment.
Incidental Discovery
Listeners encounter music while shopping or dining -- exposure that reaches people who are not actively seeking new music.
