It is especially after a busy day, with a bit of caffeine in your stream, that your mind is racing and you start to think of all the possibilities and ‘what if we did this?’ scenarios. Or at 3 am when you can’t sleep.
Music has always been a big part of my own life, and it is very, very important to the feel and atmosphere of Kaffeine. We make playlists that play all day on our Ipods, basically DJ sets that go with the flow of the day. Of course, house, breaks, funk, soul, hip hop and electronic music is a big part of this and we are very proud of the music that we play. It’s important for the customers, but also important for the staff who work here every day and listen to it all the time. It helps to motivate, to encourage, to make them smile and possibly even dance a little bit and to make the working day even more pleasant and fun.
Current and previous staff have shown an affection for music, some more than others including former lead barista James ‘Obi Wan’ Broadhurst and Justin ‘Cool Hand’ Luchterhand who also set up playlists for the Ipod from their own collections.
