Core offering

Chut! on vous écoute is an independent Paris-based sound agency and music production studio that creates original music, sound design, and sonic brand identities for enterprise clients and advertising agencies. The studio delivers project-based audio services including sonic logos, brand anthems, composition for advertising/cinema, audio post-production (sound design, voice-over, editing, mixing), and immersive spatial audio (Dolby Atmos, binaural) for events, exhibitions, and brand experiences.

Product overview

Chut! on vous écoute is an independent sound agency and music production studio based in Paris, operating since 2011. The company offers a unified portfolio of audio services centered around four core offerings: Identité Sonore & Audio Branding (sonic branding, brand anthems, brand voice), Composition Musicale (original music for advertising and cinema), Audio Post (sound design, voice-over, editing, mixing), and Audio Lab (immersive Dolby Atmos and binaural mixing). All productions are conceived, composed, and crafted in-house by a close-knit team of composers, sound designers, and sound engineers. The studio's creative arm, Jabernino, handles artistic direction and composition. Services are delivered as project-based work for advertising agencies, brands, and filmmakers rather than as a software product.
