Following up my last post about Epidemic Sound, Epidemic Sound not only run the soundtrack business, the Epidemic Spaces is background music service for business in the global.

Curated Playlists for Stores

Epidemic Spaces provides different playlists for stores like bars, restaurants, and gyms. After you sign up for an Epidemic Spaces account and login to website, you will see the “Find your sound” section. There are many stores you can select, Epidemic Spaces will generate different music according to the store you select.

The difference between Epidemic Spaces and general music streaming app,Spotify are there is no previous button to play last song and there is no function of editing playlist. I think it is reasonable. If you are an employee in a coffee shop, you just want to play great music easily and quickly. You don’t have enough time to edit a music playlist.

The left screenshot is the home page of Epidemic Spaces, you can play the curated playlist you like. The right screenshot is the song you currently playing, you can’t switch to previous songs.

I really like the design of energy bar on Epidemic Spaces website. You can pick up the high energy playlist in the gyms and low energy playlist in the coffee shop to get a good vibe. How a smart and understandable design.

Platforms of Epidemic Spaces and Music Certificate

Epidemic Spaces is available on web and iOS app. There is no Android app. So Android user has to open the Chrome browser to play music. For smart speaker owners, it is available on Sonos speakers, but not ready for Google Nest and Apple HomePod. When you play music on Epidemic Spaces app, at same time, you also can play on web.

Epidemic Spaces provides music certificate with your organization name and copyright term. Business can print out the pdf file of certificate and pasted up it on shop’s wall. The download link of “Music Certificate” is in the right-upper Epidemic Spaces website.

Pricing of Epidemic Spaces

I think Epidemic Spaces’ playlists are great. If you’re interested in it, there is a 14 days free trial. After 14 days, you will be charged €16.99 monthly. If you don’t like it after you try it, you can cancel at any time. And you won’t be charged after your trial has ended.

In the upper-right of Epidemic Spaces website, there is a “Setting” item under you account name. In the setting item, you can cancel subscription. Even you cancel the subscription before trial period ended, you also can enjoy complete 14 days trial.

If you want to make your home like a coffee shop, Epidemic Spaces can be your best DJ.
