Whether you’re a metalhead, rock enthusiast, or someone who thrives on the energy of pop, music has always been a refuge—a space where emotions, both good and bad, are released.

National anthems have become an integral part of the pageantry surrounding major sporting events.

Whether it’s a slow, calming melody or an upbeat rhythm, the music works in harmony with the gameplay, guiding emotions and keeping the room in sync.

From the intensity of key moments to the calm between rounds, music is the unspoken element that ensures the right atmosphere at every turn.
