Rehegoo Music partners with Tuned Global on ‘Music for Spaces’ streaming service for businesses
New digital streaming platform provides fully-licenced background music created by new talent
Rehegoo Music Group, the global music service provider, has partnered with leading B2B music streaming technology specialist Tuned Global to launch a new digital streaming service providing background music for businesses.
Featuring playlists and original compositions by the next generation of undiscovered global artists, Rehegoo’s new streaming service, ‘Music for Spaces’, is designed for businesses that play music in their physical spaces - including gyms, spas, retail stores and supermarkets. It comprises an extensive library of expertly fully-licensed, curated playlists and mood-based tracks with personalised recommendations based on a user’s music preferences.
Using Tuned Global’s white-label streaming app, the new service will take the hassle out of music licensing through a simple, competitively-priced monthly subscription that provides regularly refreshed, royalty-free music. This will help businesses engage with their audiences, increase sales and solve the legal complexities surrounding illegal music streaming - and support the next generation of independent talent in getting their music heard.
Rehegoo will deliver approximately 125,000 tracks from its own music catalogue, with Tuned Global providing the app’s backend services, analytics and content management system (CMS). All music available on the app will benefit from AI metadata-tagging via Tuned Global’s integration with AI company Musiio, helping curators to build playlists and receive music recommendations tailored to their business. Rehegoo is also the first client to use Tuned Global’s new Plaidio feature, which allows businesses to create their own online radio stations with tracklists broadcast live to listeners across multiple locations.
Marco Rinaldo, founder and CEO, Rehegoo, said: "Our new streaming services are designed to take the hassle out of music licensing for businesses and creators while providing a platform for the next generation of music talent to get their music heard by a global audience. We want to challenge the traditional, and often unfair, processes within the music streaming industry by putting artists first, helping them build their profiles and ensuring they get paid fairly for their work. It means that whether you’re an artist, business, brand, or creator, we can all focus on the thing that matters the most: the music.”
Con Raso, Managing Director of Tuned Global, added: “Making music available to the masses can be challenging, so we’re glad to be helping businesses break down the barriers that often prevent access to the fully-licensed music they need to create the perfect environment for their customers at an affordable price. Powered by Tuned Global’s streaming technology, Rehegoo’s ‘Music For Spaces’ service will provide businesses operating within multiple sectors with an essential music curation tool that will no doubt drive significant results.”
According to a recent survey conducted by Rehegoo¹, 81% of UK local retail owners say they are aware of licensing fees that are required to play music on site but just 31% of those aware say they are currently using a business streaming account. A separate global survey conducted by Statista², showed that just 17% of small business owners had a business streaming licence for use on their premises, with 83% not adhering to copyright laws and illegally streaming music via a personal service in their shops instead. Yet, research by DJS showed 91% of managers and business owners either “agreed” or “strongly agreed” that playing music makes customers and staff happier.
The launch of ‘Music for Spaces,’ coincides with Rehegoo’s launch of its ‘Music for Content’ e-commerce platform, which seeks to provide a library of high-quality recordings for content creators.
Rehegoo is currently working with global brands including Timberland, New Balance and jewellers Damiani to provide in-store music solutions for their retail destinations and count Venice Airport, International Rome Film Fest and I Love LEGO as recent experiential partners ahead of the UK launch.
