Background Music for Retail

Early in my working life, I joined forces with an American musician named Sandy Garrick. We aimed to make our fortune writing jingles. At that time the town really needed another jingle writing duo like a one-handed juggler needs a unicycle.

I couldn’t relate the auditory properties of music to the visual qualities of colour. However I did understand both music and colour reflect aspects of human emotion. So I learned to accept that colour has its own form of anthropomorphism.

It didn’t require a great leap of faith to see that if we could convince retailers we could harness this power to influence buying habits we’d have clients lining up.
