Background Music is Boring. 😴

Everyone is
doing it.

Are you ready to differentiate
your bar or restaurant?

Ok, cool! 😎

You don't want to be like
every other bar or
restaurant on the block.
We ❤️ that.

You know your customer's expectations have changed. You know they live in a highly engaging, visual world. You want your brand experience to exceed their expectations. We ❤️ that too!

The answer is
VIDEO.

If you’re wondering how to differentiate yourself from other bars and restaurants who are all playing the same basic background music.

Video is one of the best tools you have now to build your brand experience - and we make it easy and beautiful. 😍

Control Play
upgrades your boring
background music
to a modern
Video Experience 🎉

With music videos and
custom video content (digital signage).

Designed for bars and restaurants.

Video killed the radio star...
and Background Music.

Today’s bar and restaurant guests expect an experience. So you spend big on décor, a unique and relevant menu, and the best staff. But even the best background music is still stuck in the background, failing to contribute to your guest experience - and in many cases, detracting from it. 🤦

A Custom Guest Experience

Control Play creates custom video entertainment to match your custom and unique guest experience. Your custom video playlists are dynamic and hand-crafted for you - and no one else.

Harness the Power of Video

To create a truly modern and exciting guest experience, we mix music video and custom video content (like digital signage) into custom video playlists made for your bar or restaurant.

Easy & Friction Free

You have enough to do - stop picking songs, scheduling playlists, and still hearing customers (and staff) complain about the music. We make it easy so you can focus on delighting your customers.

DID YOU KNOW?

Music Videos accounted for almost a Quarter of ALL music consumption in 2017.

And it's on the rise thanks to YouTube and today’s youth.

Music Videos are produced and released in lock-step with the audio releases - and sometimes before, so you don't have to wait for the hottest 🔥 new music to be playing in your bar or restaurant.
