With over a decade of dedicated experience in the performing arts, Yann Longchamp is a multidisciplinary artist whose practice lies at the crossroads of electronic music production and DJing, immersive audiovisual scenography and live performance. Rooted in the underground of club culture, his work has evolved into a rich, interdisciplinary universe that merges ambient techno house & fusion jazz into immersive sonic experiences.

His solo music practice unfolds as a meditative journey through deep textures and hypnotic pulses, crafting live acts and compositions that open to ritualistic and spiritual otherworlds. He is a founding member of Shelter Twins – a live techno and house duo with Timour Nigolian and created the performance Tethered Lines with Joshua Chiundiza, a poetic experiment blending dub, Berlin School and spoken word. Recently he joined the ambient jazz quartet Mega City Paradis alongside Louis Matute, Eloi Calame and Olha Semchyschyn.

Beyond stages and studios, Yann brings his sensibility to multidisciplinary creations — designing audiovisual performances and scenographies. His artistic practice is deeply intuitive, often emerging from a dialogue between sound, space and body.

While music is his core language, Yann also cultivates a parallel path as a technical artist and specializes in building bridges between creative vision and technical reality. His unique background — from computer science and club culture to sound and light design — allows him to accompany artists across all phases of creation.

Since 2021, as an associated artist and actual collaborator at L'Abri Genève - one of Switzerland’s leading hubs for emerging artists - he's supporting artists to bring their visions to life through sound, light and video design. Over the years, he has collaborated with festivals, theaters, and institutions across Switzerland, lending his skills to dance pieces and hybrid concerts. His work is marked by empathy, precision and a commitment to nurturing artistic processes with care and inventiveness.
