A different kind of energy.

Alpiq, Switzerland's leading electricity producer, has redesigned its brand profile with Jung von Matt BRAND IDENTITY. Our task was to develop an audio branding that translates Alpiq's promise of "A different kind of energy" into sound. On this journey, we traveled to the source of this energy: In the middle of the Swiss mountains.

The acoustic field of tension.

Technology that captures the power of water and wind, built by people in the middle of untouched nature - the contrasts could hardly be greater. We have created a sound for Alpiq that captures these contrasts and boldly sets itself apart from other energy companies. Here a cellist meets a power station, accompanied by the sound of the forces of nature.

Wind and hydropower as an instrument.

At Alpiq, energy production begins in the mountains - and that's exactly where we start. We transformed atmospheric recordings from the Alps into dynamic, driving rhythms in the studio. An adventurous sound, inspired by the force of nature.

Wind Power
Hydropower
Emotion in every bow stroke.

How can we make the Alpiq brand emotionally accessible? The full, velvety sound of the cello carries joy, longing and hope in its tones. With every stroke of the bow, it unfolds a deep, warm resonance that touches the heart. The melody, sometimes played softly in legato, sometimes dynamically in pizzicato, tells stories without words.

Cello
On the hunt for the best sound.

We were looking for the special sound of Alpiq technology. The hunt began: We asked Alpiq employees to capture the acoustic soul of their machines and turbines. The names of the power plants are indeed as melodious as their powerful sounds, from which we developed unique sound effects.

Taken to the extreme.

The force of nature, the cello and the sound of power stations combine to create Alpiq's new sound logo - accompanied by the logo animation by Jung von Matt BRAND IDENTITY.
