By Eliza Campbell.Fun fact: I have chromesthesia. I hear in colour.
Not just music, either. Venues, countries, drinks and people all come in a colour. If we've met, I know what colour you are (and I'll tell you if you ask nicely).
So every playlist here gets its own dot: the ground, the ring and the centre are what it looks like to me. Pick a colour, press play.

Sunshower
Light precipitation
Sonic sundown
Ambient/experimental electro – from dusk 'til dawn.
Indie coming of age
Growing up and coming apart.
Soft rock background music
Travelling on
Staring out of the window of a train.
Classic soft rock
Warm songs for cold days
In direct sunlight
Serotonin
So cinematic
Hapless, hopeless, helpless
Silently screaming into the void
The middle of nowhere
Liminal spaces.
Frozen, faithless, faceless
Untethered, losing grip
Youth in review
Angsty, angry, apathetic
A soundtrack for your best possible life
Songs to dissolve in.
Music for brands.
Music is the fastest way to tell people how to feel about you. Get it right and people linger, spend and remember the room. Get it wrong and you're the shop playing the same twelve songs on loop.
In store
Playlists built for your space and your pace: slow for browsing, quicker when you need the foot traffic moving.
On social
TikTok and Reels are sound-on. I'll find the track that stops the scroll and still sounds like the brand.
Launches and PR
Launch nights, long tables and listening parties, scored to the brand's colour. A sonic identity, minus the jingle.
The vibe, before the visit
Let people hear the room before they book. A playlist link in the press kit, or a public Spotify profile for your venue with playlists people can follow (Gap does this really well). By the time they walk in, they already know the mood.
Playing music in a shop or venue needs a business music licence, not a personal Spotify account. I'll point you to the right one.
