Jérôme Rebotier


Composer and Musician

Eclectic musician and multi-instrumentalist switching from classical music to more experimental writing and songwriting, Jérôme Rebotier is best known for his work in cinema and documentaries, having composed the scores for about 60 films for both cinema and television. Deeply attentive to the connection between music and images —believing that music truly makes sense when paired with visuals— he has always sought to engage in a variety of new collaborations.

After studying classical music as a child in Mulhouse, he learned a lot from major pop-rock artists like David Bowie and The Beatles, while simultaneously exploring more experimental artists such as Pierre Schaeffer.

For over 20 years, he has composed scores for many directors, including Matthieu Delaporte & Alexandre de la Patellière, Emmanuel Mouret, Tonie Marshall, Laurent Larivière, and Rafael Lewandowski. His varied approach to music has led him to work on classical compositions as well as pop music.

Jérôme Rebotier has also written numerous songs for artists such as Horace Andy (Massive Attack), Olivia Ruiz, and has collaborated with DJ Agoria, Hugh Coltman, Rover, and Nicolas Becker.

In 2020, he founded his own record label and publishing company, Robotic Productions, through which he produces independent artists such as Party Side B, Edgar Novak, and KNDNS.

Currently, he is working on several projects, including personal works like "Alma" (compositions inspired by J.S. Bach), "Vox Requiem" (for voices and orchestra), and "Apach" (a collective improvisation with friends Olivier Lasson & Valentin Portron).

Jérôme Rebotier is also a writer. His first novel, Dans la Cour, released in March 2023, tells the story of a teenager escaping a traumatic childhood through music and friendships and is based on his own experiences. His next book will explore the life of an amnesiac man living multiple, simultaneous lives.

Beda Senn


Music Consultant, Music Curator & Producer

Freelance music consultant and founder of the new production music label Motif Works. From 2006 to January 2025, Beda Senn worked as a music consultant at Swiss Television (SRF), where he was involved in up to 600 documentary film projects

Since 2018 conception & production for new library/production music under Tonangeber GmbH, he is expert in the implementation of new sounds for current and future topics:
What does today's modern urban environment sound like? (Sounds Of Urbanity). What does music have to sound regarding sustainability, the new food movements, healthy and sustainable nutrition and lifestyles? (Organic Food Sounds). How do you create a sound image that depicts the regions of the world in a new and timeless way? Without all the clichés and stereotypes, but with the by integrating the traditional sounds of the regions concerned. What are new alpine sounds? What is the new sound for stories in today's alpine region (including Southern Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Slovenia and the north of Italy and France). Creating sounds that make the colours ring. And much more.

Another important motto: Modern Modular Motif-based Production Music. The goal are minimal and modular structured mood tracks, which have unique and modern sounds as core element and thus on the one hand perfectly underscore fitting and not overloaded but on the other hand have strong motif expressiveness. For each track there are several variations, which may differ in instrumentation of the motif, tempo, time signature etc., but which play around the central element (the leitmotif) in some form. And all this under the aspect of making it as close, touching, high quality and timeless as possible for all kinds of audio-visual productions and suitable for stories in the here and now.

Although music is his life, he never learned to play an instrument well. He spent a few years as a drummer, but never really gained a foothold as a musician. Despite, or perhaps because of it, he has immersed himself (associatively), in what kind of images does music create, which images need which music. He finds the exploration of music exciting. And he has immersed himself in it.

He also sees himself as a diver for musical pearls in the playlists of Tonangeber. He curates and mixes them together.

Bruno Spoerri


Saxophonist, Composer

Bruno Spoerri (b. 1935 in Zürich) is a Swiss saxophonist, composer, and pioneer of electronic and computer music. A central figure in Swiss jazz for over 60 years, he began as an award-winning amateur saxophonist in groups like the Metronome Quintet and the Modern Jazz Group Freiburg, before becoming a professional composer in the 1960s.

Spoerri has written music for over 500 advertising films, feature films, documentaries, and radio plays, earning international recognition, including a Clio and a Cannes prize. His interest in electronic sound led him to become one of Europe’s earliest innovators in combining live jazz with analog synthesizers, electrified saxophones, and later interactive computer systems. His groundbreaking album Voice of Taurus (1978) is now considered a cult classic of electronic jazz.

He co-founded and directed the Swiss Center for Computer Music and has collaborated with leading jazz artists like Albert Mangelsdorff, Clark Terry, Lee Konitz, and George Gruntz. Spoerri also served as artistic director of the Zurich Jazz Festival in the 1970s.

As an author and historian, he edited two major reference works: Jazz in der Schweiz (2005) and Musik aus dem Nichts (2010), the latter documenting the history of electroacoustic music in Switzerland.

Spoerri has received numerous honors, including the Swiss Jazz Award (2017) and the Golden Medal of Honor of the Canton of Zurich. He continues to perform in jazz and electronic ensembles and remains a key figure in the international experimental music scene.
