Why music matters

Good music doesn’t just fill silence — it drives sales.

Research shows customers stay longer and spend more per visit when tempo and volume match trading peaks. Atmosphere influences consumer consumption pace, perceived energy, and repeat behaviour. When the room feels right, customers order another round — and stay longer.

QR8 provides a soundtrack that aligns with your space, your team, and the people who use it.

Questions bar owners are asking

Can I request specific genres or exclude certain music?

Absolutely. The questionnaire lets you tell us what you love. Don't want anything too loud? Done. Love 90s hip-hop but not EDM? We'll work with that. Want zero Christmas music in December? You got it.

What if my bar has different vibes at different times?

That's exactly what we're designed for. Tell us about your taste, and your crowd (afternoon vs evening, weekday v weekend), and we'll send you playlists that shift with the energy. Most Bars get 4-5 energy specific playlists per month.

How quickly do I get my first playlist?

Within 48 hours of completing the questionnaire. For ongoing subscriptions, new playlists arrive at the start of each month.

What our bars are saying

“We’re a very specific place. I got talking to Scott (QR8) in there one night about what he did, and thought it sounded cool but not really for us. He took it as a challenge and smashed it! I’ve since had another playlist made specifically for us...”

Junior / RumKeg Bar

“Not only does QR8 do most of our playlists, but, the founder has helped me loads in understanding the subconscious effects of tempo, genre, and volume on my customers. It’s really made a difference!”
