We partner with bars to build unique audiovisual experiences that amplify your brand and deliver results.
Our background music for bars and nightlife venues, along with our digital signage solution, helps you build a deeper connection with your customers, all while supporting your operational objectives. With a branded atmosphere, they'll remember the experience long after the night has drawn to a close.
Use our Studio suite to control the audiovisual output across all your venues from a single intuitive platform - delivering a consistent, managed and impactful customer experience in every venue.
Music affects our mood, perceptions and behaviours. While the drinks are flowing and your customers are smiling, let's impact their choices and influence how they perceive your brand long after they've left the venue. It can also inspire happy and productive employees.
Adapt to the mood - we have over 100 premium playlists which you can schedule specific to each bar, so the soundtrack will always be spot on. Enhance the buzz and increase spend on a Saturday night with upbeat evening tracks, or spin slower songs to encourage longer dwell times during the week.
Sounds with substance - we know that if your music isn’t on brand, it can be very confusing for customers. That’s why your perfectly branded playlists are curated using data and a robust, academic model that was specifically designed for brand professionals, and we build a close collaborative relationship with you.
The best DJ content, flawlessly - our premium dance solution Ultimate DJ brings bars an alternative to pricey and unreliable live music, providing the perfect mixes to special events and quiet nights to life, curated by industry leading DJs.
Startle's cloud-based digital signage enhances the atmosphere in your bars - whether it's promoting food and drinks deals or combining with your music to build anticipation and excitement around upcoming tunes.
Capture customers - digital signage is engaging, visual, and gets in front of visitors who are ready to spend. It's a great way to reinforce your promotions and brand messaging, especially in high dwell areas like the bar.
A complete audiovisual experience - integrate dynamic digital signage with your music to put your soundtrack centre stage. Give your customers something to watch and discuss while they're waiting for their drinks.
It's science - just like music, engaging visual displays are proven to influence customer experiences - reducing frustration and perceived wait times and improving brand recall.
Easily replicate a perfectly curated branded atmosphere across an entire bar estate, all from a single platform with Startle Studio, supported by our Relentless Support™ team.
Our simple drag-and-drop scheduling tool makes it easy to tailor music to different times of day and trading patterns, and even override with a DJ mix if a surprise party enters the door.
Set your venue's opening and closing hours, schedule your volume levels (great for late night volume control), and manage granular permission levels so you can take pressure off your staff, and there's no unwanted mix meddling.
Access your audiovisual schedule anywhere. Gone are the days of one computer in a dusty office controlling everything - Studio is wherever you are.
Startle is your partner for building a branded bar and nightlife atmosphere that keeps customers coming back for more.
Enjoy personalised playlists and impactful visuals that work together to create and enhance an unrivalled and fun experience.
Our all-in-one approach to atmosphere building not only creates harmony between your audiovisual experience, but saves on the hassle and cost of manually adjusting media throughout the day, and across sites.
It's everything you need to make your venues unforgettable.
It's your brand, amplified.
We deliver multiple occasions to consumers and it's important to have a system that can support different times and events. Startle enables us to create atmosphere and content relevant to the time of day and audience as well as showcase what else we have to offer. Particularly during our sporting occasions the ability to have tailored content that enhances the fans experience is a huge support in creating the right atmosphere and ambience.
The system was initially implemented to reduce costs at non-essential times (like Thursdays) when a DJ wasn’t necessarily needed. We also wanted to investigate improving the quality. We had issues with volume levels, inappropriate tracks and other areas that were becoming frustrating. Our initial experience over 3 months was so impressive that we got rid of DJs on all nights. We found the system delivered exactly what we needed, without the hassle of employing the DJ, servicing the equipment, and trying to keep them on brand.
Startle's music+ service is exceptional. Their playlists are fantastic and I can control all of our venues from my smartphone. The service is backed up by Startle's Relentless Support™ team who are always on hand to answer any question or fix any issue immediately.
