Workstyle reform! Subtle BGM perfect for the office
Many offices and stores have used wired broadcasts or FM radio as workplace BGM, but we often heard concerns such as, “It’s paid, so it’s hard to take the plunge,” “The announcer’s MC pops in and becomes distracting,” or “The ads are annoying.”
Among these, the most common issue was, “Songs with Japanese vocals draw our attention away.”
In this article, for those who are considering “creating a workplace where employees can focus better as part of workstyle reform” and “building a store environment where customers can relax,” we propose YouTube live-streaming channels focused on Western music.
Please give them a try as a reference!
