Easy Listening (so also said in German, rarely Musikberiesel)

Background music from loudspeakers in a bank. In this way, an “oppressive atmosphere” is supposed to be lightened in the rooms. – Whether this goal is achieved in this way remains questionable. Meanwhile, customers and bank employees increasingly complained about the nerve-wrecking constant background music. Since around 1980, Easy Listening has therefore largely disappeared from German banks, not least at the insistence of the respective works councils. Because the background music did not penetrate into the soundproofed bureaux of the management.
