gogniat pierre-alain updated the biography

  • NEW in 2026 - PROJECT INFO - THE LABEL: BEAU SON DE X - BIO
    pierre-alain gogniat - author, composer, performer. producer Label Beau Son de X

    The technical means useful to my musical creation have evolved. This allows me to present to you today some brand new songs, new music as well as the re-orchestration of a good number of tracks already presented on my profile Mx 3, which had remained at the stage of mock-ups and are now finalized. Another novelty, the label Beau Son de X, a personal label created precisely to promote my entire production, about fifty titles, but also to encourage interactions with other artists and/or labels. In the playlist "BEAU SON DE X" some audio information is waiting for you. Like the playlist "DIFFERENCE", in which you will discover 6 tracks (3 new and 3 re-orchestrated), the names of the new playlists are written in capital letters.

    METHOD OF MUSICAL COMPOSITION with measured integration of generative AI

    Description:
    Generative artificial intelligence must not replace human creative qualities (author, composer, arranger, sound engineer, etc.), but must remain a tool for inspiration and musical embedding controlled according to three essential principles:

    - controlled co-creation: the artist sets the rules, the limits, and retains control over intent and choices
    - proportionality: the AI intervenes according to a defined percentage adjusted according to the specificities of each work
    - Creative traceability: each step of the creation process can be documented to ensure transparency and integrity.
    A method that aims to be a clear path, for artists and technicians, but also for the organizations concerned by the distribution of copyright. The way of a responsible creation where the human remains at the center of the creative process, master of his choices, his style, his sound identity. AI is part of the continuity of technical innovations that have shaped musical history, from acoustic instruments to synthesizers, from multi-track recorders to audio stationsdigital, the use with measure allows to expand the creative palette without diluting or crowding out human identity in the development of a musical work.

    Creative elements composing my audio files: human part (h), generative-based part (AI)

    1. Author: writing, lyrics of a song (h)
    2. Composer: work of composition of the music, definition of the structure, harmonic, rhythmic and melodic lines (h)
    3. Model interpreter: development of the audio model with real instruments, an arranger keyboard, technical means of recording and editing (h)
    4. Voice: pose of a pilot voice (phrasing, intonation, style) (h)
    5. Generative AI: the mockup wav file with the pilot voice is introduced into the AI. To obtain the desired orchestral versions or define the voice(s) (male, female, vocal features), prompts (directives) are given to the AI. The versions thus generated must best reproduce the style, the artistic intentions of the model, and the prompts (AI). It is often necessary to generate several versions to achieve a very good result. Some versions may contain technical bugs or artistic "drifts", sometimes surprising.
    6. Finalization: Sound engineer, recording of another voice (h)* file verification, mastering (h).
    * Option: You can choose to keep a voice generated by the AI or to delete it and replace it with a human voice.

    The AI’s role in creating such a song corresponds to position 2 of the Dalia thermometer (https://daliascale.org).
    In other words: between 4/5 and 3/4 constitute the human part and between 1/5 and 1/4 (AI voice pose or not) constitute the AI part.

    Musical background (pierre-alain gogniat)
    From 6 to 12 years, violin and then classical piano.
    At 14, I joined the band Souled Out as a bassist. Jean-Marie Gogniat and Michel Bourquin on guitars, Jean-Marc Roth, then Michel Jaussi on drums, Souled Out performs tracks by (The) Kings, Beachboys, Doors, Beatles, Rolling Stones, Who, Hendrix, Cream, Soft Machine, Pink Floyd among others.
    Michel Bourquin is replaced by Marino Maillard who takes the bass. I move on to the keyboards. This is the beginning of personal compositions. Souled Out performs live in Switzerland and France with a visit to the Golf Drouot in Paris. A record is made.
    Title Aumether (2 tracks "Citadelle d'illusion" and "Vibration de terre"). Released on vinyl in 2013/2014. Links:
    https://holywax-records.bandcamp.com/track/aumether-citadelle-dillusion
    https://holywax records.bandcamp.com/track/aumether-vibration-of-earth.

    Then, I take the bass in the band Return (Jean-Jacques Tharin, guitar, Philippe Tharin, drums, Jean-François Chételat, Hammond organ) for some concerts and a passage on TV Suisse. After leaving Return, I occasionally play in other bands as the proposals progress and participate in the production of various records (arrangement and orchestration for Brigitte Grange, advertising disc Minuit Dix, Cristal Cadence, etc.).
    The world of images (photography, films, multimedia) fascinates me as much as that of music. Finally, it is the professional activities of documentary film directors and multimedia productions that take over. Music is never very far away (children’s songs, film scores, choral singing) and, better late than never, in 2003, I started to write texts in French! New songs are born. Stories of encounters, reflections on the world, milestones of a life path with many meanders and particularly enriching.
    Today, freed from my professional activities, I come back with pleasure and more availability to the music to put a final touch to my songs that remained in the state of mock-ups. The technical means have evolved, I take this opportunity to create new orchestrations, which appear in the specific playlists "BEAU SON DE X".

Once We Knew updated the biography

  • Once We Knew is a swiss-based, female-led vocal band that feels like a warm hug.
    Acoustic-driven with Folk-Pop & Jazz influences, the four singers Alice Auclair, Maria von Rütte, Martina Dias and Sneha Lama, guitarist Marcelo Figueiredo and bassist Sébastien Rudhard, create a sound that is both ethereal and deeply grounded.
    Guided by friendship and a desire to soften the edges of a fast-paced and polarized climate, their music is a careful cultivation of vulnerability and connection.

 

Pferd updated the biography

  • Our debut LP "Gish Gallop" is out now!

    Pferd is a Zurich-based quartet consisting of Marina Iten (sax), Samuel Bachmann (bass, vocals), Max Hübner (drums), and Ayan Paska (guitar, vocals). As a band, we fuse jazz, punk, and noise into a dynamic, unpredictable force. Driving riffs, powerful basslines, and lashing drums are saddled with lyrics about love, ominous islands, and fifteen-legged sons.

 

Circe updated the biography

  • Circe is the alter ego of an anonymous musician from Ticino. Since it’s an alter ego, it has no past and perhaps not even a future. So, no bio, sorry.

 

Dame Tu Alma updated the biography

  • Dame Tu Alma (“Give Me Your Soul”) is a Swiss-based international dark rock and gothic metal band combining heavy riffs, cinematic atmospheres and melodic hooks with a distinctive theatrical visual identity. Formed by musicians from four nations — Vulture King (vocals), Vidame de la Fey (guitar), Baron Legba (bass) and Sypher (drums) — the band is built for the stage. With 45 shows across Europe, Dame Tu Alma has toured Germany with Stahlmann, completed an 11-show, six-country European tour with Gothminister, and shared stages with Nachtblut and Ost+Front. Their elaborate costumes, theatrical makeup and dark, cinematic sound turn each live performance into a complete audiovisual experience.

 

TicTacTec updated the biography

  • Active since 2015, TicTacTec is a group of masked DJs from French-speaking Switzerland with more than 100 shows across the country.

ManaModo updated the biography

  • Bio logisch us Bärn. I machä Musig us fröid. U drum ohni KI…

 

Keulinger updated the biography

  • Keulinger gehört zu jenen Künstlern, die sich einer klaren Schublade konsequent entziehen. Zu viel Rock für den klassischen Singer-Songwriter. Zu viel Singer-Songwriter für den Rock. Zu viel Leben für den Mainstream. Seine Lieder erzählen von Leben, Liebe und Tod. Mal dunkel und melancholisch, mal bitterböse und direkt. Immer melodisch. Immer ehrlich. Sein eigentliches Instrument ist seine Stimme. Sie trägt die Geschichten durch Abgründe und wieder hinaus ins Licht. Seine Songs besitzen die Intimität eines Singer-Songwriters, gleichzeitig aber auch die Größe und Wucht von Refrains, die man in jedem Stadion der Welt mitsingen könnte. Musikalisch bewegt er sich zwischen Alternative, Americana, Akustik-Rock, Indie, Grunge und SingerSongwriter. Die Texte spiegeln ein gelebtes Leben wieder, roh, verletzlich, unbequem, aber immer authentisch. Er schreibt über Menschen. Über das, was bleibt, wenn die Masken fallen.

 

Interregio updated the biography

  • Interregio is the Swiss-German dialect band of songwriters Marisa Jüni and Nadja Merian from Zurich. Their songs are about missed trains, cheap coffee and the hope that lingers anyway. Soulful, quietly witty and close to everyday life.

    Carried by cello, violin, piano, double bass and drums, they create a warm, dreamlike chamber-pop sound somewhere between folk, chanson and the singer-songwriter tradition. They sing exclusively in Swiss German — dialect from Bern and Zurich.

    Live, Interregio performs as a seven-piece band. For fans of To Athena, Mine and Faber.

    Current release: "Blibt", out 15 July 2026

Noah Titren updated the biography

  • Noah Titren is a Swiss musician, singer-songwriter and producer.

    Born and raised in Locarno, he showed a deep passion for music from a very young age, starting with his first guitar lessons at the age of 6 at the Accademia Ticinese di Musica. Thanks to the academy, Noah was able to develop his musical skills, not only on the guitar but also in singing, bass and drums. At the age of 11, together with other students, he formed ‘The Goldfish’, his first band, with whom he played for a decade, gaining extensive experience in performing, songwriting and production.

    During the Covid lockdown, he decided to independently release several singles, exploring a wide range of musical genres and thereby improving his skills as a writer and producer. When the live music scene resumed, following the break-up of his previous band, Noah founded the rock band UFFA in 2023, in which he is the lead singer, guitarist and primary songwriter. During the same period, he undertook a foundation year at the Zürcher Hochschule der Kunst, where he further developed his musical skills.

    Outside of UFFA, Noah occasionally releases solo singles and also works as a multi-instrumentalist session musician for various projects across Switzerland (PERDUNAI, Wide Lense, Inanna Nuit, etc.)

 

Bye Bye Maxwell updated the biography

  • Two lead voices passing melodies back and forth, analog echo, somewhere a singing saw: Bye Bye Maxwell from Bern call it cosmic indie pop — songs about astrophysics, the future, being lost and the passing of time. The two lead voices belong to Sandy Stadler (vocals, synths, keys) and Bänz Isler (vocals, guitar); Flo Hufschmid plays drums.

    Their first single "Überau", with Bernese rapper Nativ — rapping in Bernese dialect against Sandy's English — is the theme song of the four-part Swiss documentary series "The Belonging" (Sky Show / blue Play) about national-team footballers Akanji, Embolo and Rakitić; Bänz co-created and co-directed the series, Sandy composed its score.

    The two studied film composition at Zurich University of the Arts and run SONDER Film Music, their scoring studio in Bern (Best Soundtrack, Munich Film Awards; Best Score, Paris Art & Movie Awards) — the band is where the pictures come off.

    The debut EP arrives in autumn 2026, produced by Marty Hailey at Metro 13 Music Studio in Edinburgh — vintage instruments, modern production. In a Bye Bye Maxwell song, a children's choir sings "We are the future, and you are not." The name waves goodbye to Maxwell's demon, the tireless sorter of things into boxes.

UFFA updated the biography

  • UFFA is a post-grunge band from Ticino formed in 2023. The name is an Italian onomatopoeic interjection of a sigh, which represents exactly how frontman Noah Titren (lead vocals and guitar) felt about the frustrating absence of energetic rock music in southern Switzerland.

    After his previous band (The Goldfish) disbanded, Noah began composing demos of new songs with a more catchy, punk sound and the new addition of Italian lyrics. Through a local band listing website, Noah met bassist Simone Barozzi and drummer Gioele Stanga (ex Twin Planet).

    In 2024, the trio debuted with the single “L'aldilà”, self-produced by Noah and released in March 2024, and toured throughout Ticino, winning first place in the only local competition for bands, TicinoBands. By the end of the year, the band decided to enter the studio to record and then release the eagerly awaited new singles ‘Light Green’, ‘Unrested Heart’ and ‘If I Could’, currently the fans' favourite tracks during their concerts, thus amassing numerous digital plays on various online platforms. To elevate their concerts in 2025, Frank Santos (ex Doomsteps) joined them as lead guitarist, completing the line-up.

    UFFA continues to light up the scene, combining old and new rock sounds for a unique live experience, hard-hitting guitar riffs and catchy melodies.

 

Kind of a Mate updated the biography

  • Einatmen, ausatmen – manchmal braucht es etwas länger, um fortzusetzen, was gut 10 Jahre zuvor angefangen hat. Ja, sich neu zu erfinden. Heute klingen Kind of a Mate tatsächlich — reif, gewachsen, eigenständig. In eine musikalische Schublade stecken lassen sie sich nicht. Wenn es trotzdem sein muss: folkiger Indie-Pop, sehnsüchtig, wohltuend, herbstlich.

    Über 100 Konzerte haben sie gespielt, in Clubs, Konzerthäusern, auf Festivals. Und die neue Besetzung will es erst recht wissen. Markenzeichen sind die Violine und das Cello. Der oft mehrstimmige Gesang. Und die Stimme von Matteo Gisler, die seine emotionalen Texte direkt, ehrlich rüberbringt.

    Musik mit Worten zu beschreiben, ist müssig. Hör rein in die aktuellen Songs aus der Live-Session. Oder demnächst vor einer kleinen oder grossen Bühne irgendwo in der Schweiz.

 

Isia Mendes updated the biography

  • Isia crafts a rich and bold musical universe, where R&B sounds blend with mysterious, airy atmospheres and trip-hop.

On stage, Isia delivers intense and captivating performances, creating a rare chemistry with her audience, balancing raw emotion and elegance.

 

THE EMIGRANTS updated the biography

  • Italian soul meets digital pulse. THE EMIGRANTS from Lucerne, blend decades of band history with the boundless freedom of a modern studio. The result? An uncompromising, genre-bending mix of pop, electropop, funky grooves and pop-rock. They don’t just play songs; they build soundscapes, independent, passionate, and deeply rooted in the melody of their language.

    AI Music Production - -
    a philosophical glance

    ・・・・・・・・・・・

    • AI opens spaces where sound is not only made but contemplated

    • It acts as a quiet resonator, reflecting our own creative impulses

    • Human and machine weave ideas into forms neither could shape alone

    • Near future: Music as a dialogue between intuition and algorithm

    • Distant future: Ever-shifting works that accompany us like acoustic mirrors of our inner world

    • The lasting question: Does AI create music, or does it reveal new contours of what it means to be human?

    ・・・・・・・・・・・

    How AI makes everyone creative

    ・・・・・・・・・・・

    • It removes barriers: ideas become sound without costly tools or training

    • It turns quick impulses into usable material

    • It offers sparks that help people start instead of stall

    • It gives non-experts new ways to express inner images

    • It expands imagination with fresh, unexpected options

    • It shifts creativity from skill to curiosity, giving every voice room to grow
