Built in Ireland. Built for Irish businesses.

Royalty-free music your venue can actually play.

Spotify, Apple Music and the radio are licensed for personal listening — not for a space full of customers. We own every track you play, so there is no other music licence to buy.

    The licensing problem

    That letter isn't a mistake.

    Here is why that letter is correct, and why it's worth knowing. Licensing bodies contact and visit Irish businesses regularly.

    Your Spotify account

    Using that same account to play music to your customers in a commercial space is a public performance — and that isn't included in your agreement.

    The radio

    The station is licensed to broadcast. You aren't licensed to play it.

    Buying the album

    That buys you the copy. It doesn't buy the right to play it in public.

    Our music is entirely claim-free and unregistered with any performance rights organisation (PRO — such as IMRO or PPI). Because it is fully original and independent, there are no third-party claims, no licensing hoops to jump through, and zero risk of unexpected invoices. Play and enjoy, worry-free.

    Included with every plan A Certificate of Music Clearance & Licensing, issued with your contract.

    The app

    This is the whole product.

    The honest comparison

    Your Spotify account was never built for this.

    Consumer streaming is built for personal listening. A commercial space is a different requirement, and the difference isn't only legal.

    * Covers the music we supply. Anything else playing in the same space — radio, a personal streaming account, live performers — is separate and needs its own permission.

    How it works

    Running for the day in about two minutes.

    No hardware, no engineer, no contract negotiation. If you can open a browser, you can run it.

    01

    Create your account

    Business name, business type and Eircode, plus a VAT number if you need it on your invoices. Sign up and choose your plan in the web app — you can play tracks on any device once you're set up. That's it!

    02

    Pick your venue type

    Retail, Café, Restaurant, Hotel, Health & Beauty, Barbers, Spas or Leisure — then the category under it. The catalogue maps itself to your space, tempo and rotation already suited to it.

    03

    Press play

    Phone, tablet, laptop or the machine behind the counter. Schedule the day if you want different energy at 9am and 7pm — or just leave it running.

    For your business

    Supporting eight business types. Select your own venue type.

    A gym at half seven and a treatment room at half two are not the same vibe. Our catalogues are set up for all of them — pick your business type, then the category that fits.

    The catalogue

    A sound for every room.

    Mapped to the way your space trades and the vibe you want to set — from a morning café chill to an energetic Friday evening service. Every track fully licensed, owned by us, and ready for you and your customers to enjoy.

    Indie Café — good music, better days
    Soulful — real connections last forever
    Hip Hop — real beats, real stories, forever
    Chill R&B — smooth always
    Beauty — real people, real beauty
