EX10 Musicpod (MAYA Lifestyle Shopping Center)

EX10 Musicpod is a set of private karaoke booths in the arcade zone of MAYA Lifestyle Shopping Center, at the Rincome junction on Huay Kaew Road. Each booth has two bench seats, a table, two microphones and a touch-screen song selector.

Songs can be searched by artist, language or popularity. The catalogue leans towards Thai, Korean and Chinese songs, alongside international hits. Groups book a time slot, and four or five people fill a booth comfortably. A half hour costs around 100 baht.

The booths sit side by side, so neighbouring groups can sometimes be heard. Students and groups of friends make up much of the crowd, and slots fill quickly in the early evening, so booking while shopping or playing in the arcade helps.
