>Retail stores also use sound and music to manipulate the environment. A study from the early 1980s showed that slow-tempo music led to shoppers moving more slowly through the store and spending more money than if fast-tempo music played. (There wasn’t a huge difference in results between slow-tempo music and no music at all.)
>“It’s almost mood maintenance,” says Theodore Noseworthy, a York University business professor who has studied the impacts of sound. “They’re trying to keep you in this positive state and almost in flow [so] that if you’re shopping, [you] just stay shopping.”
Dawn Of The Dead - Mall Music Collection / George A. Romero / 1978 / Horror Movie Music

>Unlike any other video on YouTube, this mall music collection provides all tracks heard within the Monroeville Mall in George Romero's 1978 zombie classic 'Dawn Of The Dead'. Finding the best quality for these tracks let alone their full versions wasn't easy. After a lot of research and editing, I give you the best I could put together. This cliché Muzak really makes the film what it is and captures a sense of slapstick comedy very much present in the movie. As far as I'm aware, these were real tracks heard in the actual mall back in the 1970s.
