Why Royalty-Free Business Music Matters
Most businesses that play music — whether from Spotify, Apple Music or the radio — are legally required to hold a performing rights licence from organisations like ASCAP, BMI or SOCAN in North America, PRS in the UK, SGAE in Spain, or APRA in Australia. These fees are charged on top of any streaming subscription and can amount to hundreds or thousands of euros per year depending on your venue size.
With XS-4 Business Audio, every track is an original composition owned entirely by us. There are no third-party rights holders. No performing rights organisations are involved. Your subscription is the only fee you pay — worldwide, in any venue, at any size.
This is particularly significant for hotel and retail chains with multiple locations. Instead of paying performing rights fees for each location individually, one Enterprise subscription covers unlimited venues under one company account. Contact Us.
Background Music for Hotels — A Complete Solution
Hotels require consistent, high-quality music across multiple spaces simultaneously — lobbies, restaurants, bars, spa areas, corridors and pool areas. Each space has different acoustic characteristics and guest expectations. XS-4 Business Audio gives hotel operators dedicated channels for each area, all under one subscription.
Our Hotel Lobby, Spa & Relax, Cocktail Lounge and Sunset Bar channels are specifically designed to work together as a coherent hotel soundscape. Many of our clients are independent hotels and international chains who appreciate the consistency and zero licensing complexity.
In-Store Music for Retail — Influence Dwell Time and Spend
Research consistently shows that the right background music increases average dwell time in retail environments by up to 15%, and positively influences purchasing decisions. Slow-tempo music encourages customers to browse longer. The right energy matches your brand positioning.
Our Luxury Retail channel is specifically programmed for premium retail environments — slower tempos, refined arrangements and a sense of space that signals quality. Our Café Lounge channel works perfectly for fashion retailers, bookshops and lifestyle stores that want a more relaxed, contemporary feel.
Restaurant Background Music — From Brunch to Fine Dining
The music in a restaurant is part of the dining experience. Too loud and it interferes with conversation. Too quiet and it feels uncomfortable. The wrong style undermines your brand. XS-4 Business Audio offers dedicated channels for every restaurant format — from casual café to fine dining to late-night cocktail bar.
All tracks are selected and programmed to work at background volume levels — they create atmosphere without demanding attention, so your guests can focus on the food, the conversation and the experience.

How is XS-4 different from Spotify or Apple Music for Business?
Spotify and Apple Music for Business still require you to hold a performing rights licence for commercial use — they do not cover those fees.

Additionally, XS-4 music is produced specifically for business environments, with professional programming by channel type rather than generic playlists.
