How do you feel about music in watch reviews
Hello folks, I'm doing a little research about putting ambiance music in video watch reviews to back up the commentary
I'm wondering how people hate having reviewers narrate over music vs. how many don't care/don't notice
Please let me know how you all feel about this
🍺

I tend to watch without sound and with subtitles anyway.
Background music is essential in any video. Just make sure it's not too distracting and about 20dB lower than your voiceover.
It depends on the music choice, volume level, etc. But I’d say other factors usually outweigh music.
If I notice it, it's too much.
If there's background music I switch it off.
If I want to watch a music vid I'll find one. I watch reviews for information & not bs...I'd rather not have someone else's musical preference forced on me.
Only if it’s Tibetan throat singing metal… Like the Hu 🤣

Fair enough that's good info

Yeah I agree
There's some folks that feel strongly about having nothing but voice
Trying to get an idea of what the ratio is
Thanks for participating 🍺

Totally agree
I see this as, if done right if it's just ambient not a musical statement 😆
Cheers 🤙🏼

Yup, glad I'm not alone 😎
I don't mind the music if it's unobtrusive, the background music that was in every watchfinder was very relaxing.

That's a great reference thank you
I notice if it's particularly well-done or if the sound is off and people are speaking at the same frequency the music's coming in. I like a little background music for something longer than 7 minutes, personally
