TV

In today's TV landscape, viewers are often distracted, making audio branding crucial for grabbing attention. Unique sound not only enhances brand recognition but also captivates audiences, fostering loyalty in a competitive broadcasting landscape.

Radio

Despite its vast audience reach, radio is often overlooked by brands, yet nearly 3 billion people globally, tune in to radio stations daily. However, it is a crucial platform where brands only exist through sound, and must engage their audience in long advertising funnels that last several minutes. To help brands make the most out of this special medium, we specialize in adapting their audio identity and have extensive expertise in voice recording.

UX

Sounds and signals greatly affect how users experience products. The right choice of sound design makes using a product easier and showcases brand values. Nowadays, interactions between humans and machines are everywhere, from smartphones and car interfaces to supermarket checkouts and ATMs, all of which produce various sounds. We help brands by designing the most relevant sounds for them.

Environmental sound design

Having the right environmental sound design is key to creating impactful experiences. Our approach enables us to envision and implement unique, innovative solutions that enhance immersion and evoke stronger emotional responses. We ensure that brands are memorable, engaging, and deeply resonant, ultimately elevating the overall experience for their audience.

On hold music

On-hold music is often the first contact we have with a brand, and it can be played in loop during several minutes. It should therefore be reassuring, give confidence, and provide a positive feeling. A few years ago, our President Michael Boumendil realized every on-hold music he heard was the same: Vivaldi's Four Seasons. At this moment, he knew how crucial on-hold music is and how it can easily help brands to differentiate.

Events

We design music for brand events because we believe that creating memorable sonic experiences is essential for enhancing brand recall, fostering connections, and amplifying brand impact. By infusing your events with carefully curated music, we ensure that your brand leaves a lasting impression on your audience, strengthening your brand identity and forging meaningful connections with your customers.

Digital

Tailor-made sound on social media plays a pivotal role in shaping brand identity, attracting attention, and fostering engagement. Distinctive audio elements not only reflect a brand's personality but also enrich user experience and set it apart in a crowded digital landscape.
