It was mostly commercial electrohouse and the Killers and suchlike but played on such a bad sound system that it just felt really intrusive and made me want to back up and leave the place as quickly as possible. That sort of mid-90s airy house sounds like it would suit the UniQlo brand kind of well - in that 'you might think its trendy and modern if you're 45 but it won't put anyone off' way.

High fashion store going for high fashion music?

Clothing store music is always funny though, it has to bring a certain vibe of being in a cool and trendy spot, but if the music was too cool you'd focus too much on it and not buy clothes anymore. Then again if the music would be too horrible (or too loud - which it is in many many stores) you'd leave too.

But maybe that works too. But this shop you're talking about obviously went for that's just *different* and abstract. Something that creates a vibe rather than something you hear on the radio every 2 minutes. Smart but a somewhat intuitive idea....

I couldn't fathom what the music was at all. It seemed, for the most part, like bland US house tinged with European influences but I couldn't ID anything. It's the sort of music they should play on planes before take-off instead of Enya on transatlantic flights! I found that in Uniqlo in New York. I couldn’t fathom what the music was at all.
