Deezer defines the power of music in engaging campaign to attract Gen Z

The global music streaming service launches a 360° marketing campaign in key markets, highlighting how music can elevate moods and perceptions.

Paris, August 23, 2022 – Deezer (DEEZR), is repositioning its brand to attract younger users. As a first step, a new marketing campaign launched on August 22 in France, Germany and Brazil. Award-winning French agency Buzzman was chosen as the main partner for the campaign, and the wider brand development.

With engaging visuals from photographer Lou Escobar, Deezer presents a number of intriguing scenarios that at first glance might not tell the full story. After scanning a QR code on the image, a song will be played which will either elevate or change the perception of the scenario. The artists range from icons such as Edith Piaf, global superstars like Dua Lipa, and local heroes such as Heuss L’enfoiré, Jul, Die Prinzen and Vitor Kley.

“A song has the power to change how you view the world around you. As the home of music, Deezer is the best partner to set the mood in any situation of our users’ lives,” said Elsa Batigne, VP Brand Marketing, Deezer. “Working with Buzzman, we have created a disruptive, and engaging campaign, where music makes images come to life. We can’t wait for our users to interact and play with the concept, and use the power of music to create their own content.”

The campaign will show imagery in multiple outdoor formats, including 8 M2 billboards, as well as digital activations, social media, and TV across France, Germany and Brazil. Additionally, Deezer is creating a TikTok challenge where people will enhance or change a situation with the power of music.
