We have a bar in town that describes itself as a Hawaiian-themed bar. While they do have a lot of bamboo there is nothing "Hawaiian" about it. The music is a paid for, advertised DJ service, with different DJs on different days, being streamed from a remote, central source. Kind of like a loud obnoxious Muzak. Nothing even remotely close to the theme. Fun drinks though.

As for the horrid Spotify playlist you encountered. I feel your pain. However I am not aware of any Spotify feature allowing only a single playlist. As a matter of fact:

"As laid out in our Terms and Conditions, Spotify is only for personal, non-commercial use.

This means you can’t broadcast or play Spotify publicly from a business, such as bars, restaurants, schools, stores, salons, dance studios, radio stations, etc."

They may indeed have a service, but also works as an answer they use on us pesky purists.
