Hard rock, rap, or extreme music are far more popular, which is why it is easy to find them on the radio but very hard to find jazz. Is there a station that plays elevator music?

Let's play popular music, since that is what people actually listen to.
The purpose of music in a fine dining establishment is not to entertain, but to be a pleasant buffer so you can more easily focus your attention on your meal and the company at your table. Like a lampshade, it is mentioned to serve a purpose without drawing attention.
