Now Playing, at your work.

[TBird1958]

 As some of you know I work with Seattle Lighting which is a retailer of all types of lighting, tho where I am primarily residential. We have a large, very nice showroom in fact the largest West of the Missisippi river, and as part of it there is a Muzak program of sorts with lots of choices. I have the coolest boss! We have a really good classic rock station with many songs I had quite forgotten and that sometimes just put a smile on your face.........
 There's nothing like selling a $5500.00 rock crystal chandelier while "Might just save your Life" by Deep Purple is playing........
 So what about you guys that work places with music? Whatcha got?

I'll probably drop a few more song titles in here, as this makes my job a pleasure!

i just listen to I tunes shuffle play all day. I used to listen to Pandora, but it made my computer lag.

No music is provided, but I have a radio, CD or pandora on all day...and Friday afternoon is ALWAYS blues and oldies.  The later in the day on Friday, the louder it tends to get.

I've been doing some service work on equipment late at night in a few places that have music services and as Mark says there are quite a few choices.  One place in Austin had a station selected that just confounded common Muzak type services - I heard Oingo Boingo, The Clash, The Buzzcocks, The Ramones, the Jam and several other early punk and new wave types bands - this was in a one hour call.

Mr. gauged ears, pierced everything college kid was kind of baffled that some old straightlaced business dude new who any of the bands where   He told that during the day they played a MOR type cahnnel for the old folks.

I have heard actual Muzak versions of the damndest things - I swear I heard a Muzak version of God Save the Queen once - very frightening

When I was working in post houses I had audio to sync on many projects, so if I had anything on it was low volume and in the background. On some projects though, there was no audio involved. On those nights I'd plug my CD or mp3 player into the mixing board and crank it through the studio monitors. I worked swing or graves, so it could get LOUD... 

[Highlander]

I've been road based since '83 so the music is mostly whatever I choose to play... LOUD... (mostly)

Luckily the small team I work with are cool with similar musical tastses. We usually have local radio station 3DFM which plays a lot of local bands plus has hour segments where all they play is Blues or soul or funk or Dinner Jazz. The 50's bubble gum pop B sides hour is always interesting. we are usually pretty happy with the quality of the music however the "Thrust in yer face" hour does get turned down 

Its a great station because it plays everything from Herb Alperts Tijuana Brass to Leadbelly to Greenday to new folk.

Possibly the only radio station in the country that plays Govt Mule.
