Perez Hilton Collaborates With Hard Rock International's Music Program, The Sound of Your Stay

ORLANDO, Fla., Sept. 27 /PRNewswire/ -- Hard Rock International marks the third volume of Hard Rock Hotels & Casinos' brand-wide music program, The Sound of Your Stay by asking the world's most famous celebrity blogger, Perez Hilton, to curate a playlist for the program's latest installment. The Sound of Your Stay invites Hotel & Casino guests to download complimentary playlists upon check-in; each specially selected to represent the vibe of the three distinct types of Hard Rock properties – resort havens, casino getaways and city retreats. With the launch of Volume 3, The Sound of Your Stay expands to include Hard Rock Hotel & Casino's international locations, providing Hotel & Casino guests access to the music program globally.  

The Hard Rock brand is synonymous with music. While Perez is known as the "Queen of All Media" to the celebrity and blogger world, music fans know him as a driving force and tastemaker in the music space. Through his record label Perezious Music, he has introduced acts such as Slimmy, Travis Garland and Semi Precious Weapons and his "One Night In…" global events have featured musical acts such as Kanye West, Mary J Blige, Katy Perry, Lady Gaga and Courtney Love. Both Hard Rock and Perez have played instrumental roles in exposing up-and-coming musicians. The Sound of Your Stay's previous volumes have helped break Phoenix, Passion Pit and Florence and the Machine, while Perez introduced artists such as Lady Gaga, Katy Perry and Mika to a mainstream audience.

Perez says "The only thing I love more than celebrity gossip is music, and I am thrilled to share some of my favorite artists with lucky Hard Rock hotel-goers. I hope they enjoy and also walk or dance away with some new faves of their own!"

How The Sound of Your Stay Works

Upon check-in, all Hard Rock Hotel & Casino guests receive a room key card marked with a code that provides access to The Sound of Your Stay playlists and are encouraged to download one complimentary playlist via music.hardrockhotels.com. Each playlists features its own sound and is classified by three distinct categories titled SUN, PLAYERS and CITY to represent the vibe and genre of Hard Rock Hotel & Casino properties throughout the world: resort havens, casino getaways and city retreats.

• Personally selected by Perez, the SUN playlist is the first international playlist offered by The Sound of Your Stay. Reflecting the energy of Hard Rock Hotels & Casinos in resort properties such as Orlando, FL and the upcoming Punta Cana location, the SUN playlist is made up of budding artists and dance-pop music that completely evokes "fun", such as Robyn's "Dancing On My Own" and summer anthems by artists including Mike Posner's "Cooler Than Me.
• PLAYERS has an up-tempo, classic vibe similar to that of a casino getaway in destinations such as Hard Rock Hotel & Casino properties in Biloxi, MS; Tampa, FL and Hollywood, FL.  PLAYERS features timeless favorites from classic artists including The Doors' "Five To One" and REO Speedwagon's "Keep On Loving You."
• Capturing the edgy side of Hard Rock Hotels in locales such as Chicago and San Diego, the CITY playlist is infused with exciting sounds including Coheed and Cambria's "Pearl of the Stars" and the modern, yet timeless sound of Raveonettes's "Last Dance."

In addition to Perez lending his musical clout for the SUN playlist, Hard Rock International's tireless team of musical experts have carefully chosen each track for the PLAYERS and CITY lists, as well as all songs for The Sound of Your Stay Volumes 1 and 2.

The Sound Of Your Stay Volume 3 is currently available to all guests staying at Hard Rock Hotels and Casinos worldwide, allowing returning visitors to download new music, great classics and current hits again - compliments of Hard Rock International. The Sound Of Your Stay program is produced exclusively for Hard Rock Hotels and Casinos by the BMF Media Group (www.bmfmedia.com).
