Singapore and Spotify invite travelers to groove to Beats of Singapore<\/strong><\/p>\n

Philippines \u2013 Discover Singapore based on music\u2019s universal language through the Beats of Singapore campaign, a partnership between the Singapore Tourism Board (STB) and Spotify, the world’s most popular music streaming subscription service. <\/p>\n

Starting March 8 until March 31, 2019, Spotify users in the Philippines, Indonesia, Thailand and Vietnam can explore Singapore via playlists that will allow them to engage with the city through music and find out more about what to do and see in Singapore. Users who log on to www.beatsofsingapore.com and participate in the campaign can also win one month Spotify premium subscriptions while a lucky weekly winner will get six months\u2019 worth of premium subscription. <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

This unique campaign by STB and Spotify aims to connect visitors with Singaporeans through their shared passion and appreciation for music. The first phase, which ended in December 2018, saw enthusiastic participation by Spotify users in Singapore, with 2,100 submissions received across a three-month period. Their submissions consisted of song recommendations which were evocative of their favorite places or activities in Singapore. <\/p>\n

For example, the song \u201cOne Love\u201d by Bob Marley & The Wailers was tagged to Arab Street, as the locale is well-loved by Singaporeans, and is a place where different races in Singapore come together to embrace the city\u2019s eclectic blend of history, culture and art appreciation. On the other hand, Singapore\u2019s East Coast Lagoon Food Village, which offers a wide selection of Singaporean favorites, was paired with \u201cDance the Night Away\u201d by TWICE, as a tribute to its vibrancy at night as a popular food haunt. These submissions contributed towards building up Singapore\u2019s soundscape on the campaign\u2019s microsite. <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

In the second phase of the Beats of Singapore campaign, visitors from the four Southeast Asian markets can now tune in to Singapore\u2019s unique soundscape built up in the first phase, and check out the myriad recommendations on what to do and see in Singapore \u2013 including discovering the tribe profiles of popular influencers in the country, such as UDD from the Philippines. A home-grown electronic indie band, UDD enjoys listening to classics like Prefab Sprout\u2019s \u201cAppetite\u201d while taking in the stunning view from the Henderson Waves Bridge. Users can also download itineraries for a trip, and even make their own recommendations of Singapore to others who share the same passions. <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Discovering passion tribe profiles through music<\/strong> <\/p>\n

As travelers discover and appreciate a city differently, each of them belongs to different \u201cPassion Tribes\u201d \u2013 groups based on lifestyles and interests when they travel. For instance, those in the Foodies passion tribe often take delight in savoring culinary experiences when they travel, while those in the Socialisers passion tribe enjoy making meaningful connections through music and entertainment.<\/p>\n

When visiting the Beats of Singapore microsite, travelers from the four Southeast Asian markets will be prompted to sign in to their Spotify account, where they will be matched to a \u201cPassion Tribe\u201d profile. The match is done according to the user\u2019s existing favorite playlists and Spotify’s unique data insights, which studies music preferences and listening habits. Visitors who are already in Singapore can tune into their \u201cPassion Tribe\u201d playlist specially curated by Singaporeans who participated in phase 1 of the campaign. Featuring Singaporean artists and music, travelers can now experience a multi-sensory and musical adventure as they take in the city\u2019s sights and sounds. <\/p>\n

STB Philippines Area Director Lael Loh said: \u201cSTB is thrilled to continue with the second phase of the Beats of Singapore campaign with Spotify, following a successful run in the campaign\u2019s first phase in Singapore. In this phase, we aim to offer travelers an innovative way in which they can discover and rediscover Singapore. Through recommendations made by Singaporeans, as well as the specially-curated music playlists, we hope travelers will be inspired to find out more about Singapore and deepen their passions on this journey of discovery through music.\u201d <\/p>\n
