We’re honored to share that PLAY Audio Agency has been named Best Playlist That Captures the Sounds of Cincy in CityBeat’s Best of Cincinnati® 2025!
At PLAY, we believe every place has a sound worth hearing — and a story worth telling. That belief fuels our PLAY IT: series, where we turn the real sounds of Cincinnati’s landmarks, businesses, and icons into original music.
You’ll hear the clang of bridge cables from the Roebling Suspension Bridge. The rhythmic hiss of steam from Doscher’s Candies. And the satisfying psssht of a can cracking open at Rhinegeist Brewery — recorded right where the tanks tower and the fermentation magic happens. Each sound tells a part of this city’s story, and together, they make up a playlist that could only come from here.
This recognition means a lot coming from the people of this city. CityBeat’s Best of Cincinnati® is a celebration of what makes this town one of a kind — and being included in that celebration is something we don’t take lightly.
We’d like to thank CityBeat, everyone who voted, and all the incredible Cincinnati partners who’ve let us into their worlds to capture the sounds that make this city sing.
Real sounds. Original music. Straight outta Cincy.
