successfully funded Music & Sound Crowdfunding Projects from Switzerland

For almost a quarter of a century, bee-flat has stood for concert culture. From big names to the most "our there" experiments, we present music with fire, always international and always in the centre of Bern. Now it's hitting us too: we have a deficit. And we have to plug this hole in order to be able to continue organising concerts. In addition to internal restructuring and savings, we now also need Bern and all bee-flat fans!

Lightness and vitality, love and freedom, profoundness with a hint of melancholy - all these things you can find in our music. We are Wintershome, the folk-pop band from Zermatt. Now we have the opportunity to record our first album in the United States, in Seattle with Ryan Hadklock, a Grammy-awarded producer! But this project has its price. That's why we need your support :)

Something special is supposed to happen this year. For 15 years I've been dreaming of recording and publishing my own pieces of music. International musicians and friends of mine play with me on my instrumental album. Beautiful melodies, grooves, string orchestras and solos, various instruments characterize the album "DREAM BIG". It should be released at the end of 2020.

Finally I get to record my own Fusion songs! My vision is to use my voice to bridge the gap between east and west. I'm ecstatic to share my music with you and the world.

After four years of intensive music production, the post-production and pressing of my most significant solo album are now approaching. The final touches are set to take place at the legendary Abbey Road Studios – marking a kind of journey to a place of longing for me, both as a passionate music fan and as a sound engineer. In addition to many fantastic goodies, a half-day in the mastering session in London will be raffled among all supporters.

I'm a concert pianist, living in Basel. It's about time to record my first solo album! Would you help to make my dream come true? I started to play the piano when I was five. Since then I played many solo recitals all over the world. Some of them were broadcast by radio and television (SRF, RTS Espace 2, BBC 3, Radio Bremen). However, so far I've been never recording solo program specifically.

The Celtic Cello is dedicated to bringing you the most beautiful Celtic melodies arranged for Cello. My dream is to record an album of these melodies. Please support me in financing the studio costs, mixing & mastering, CD printing, graphic designer, promotion and distribution which will cost 11,000 CHF. Thank you very much!

Owen Kane, oldest newcomer band in the world, is in the making of their forthcoming album "Outline of a Rock'n'Roll Career“. This piece of new music is hopefully helping to keep Rock’n’Roll alive. But we can’t do it alone; we need all the help we can get! Dear friends and neighbors, give us some support! It’s highly appreciated. Thank you very much!

Dear Supporter, The manufacturing of an electric guitar made of aluminum and 3d-veneer is absolutely new. Also sensors instead of a normal 3-way-switch are never used before like that in the guitar branch. Till Pirmin played the first time with the prototype he did not knew if his idea with the senors will work and, occasionally more important, if the guitar sounds good. And... after hours of working out... everything operated. And the sound is also for Pirmin surprisingly "superb": warm, vibrant, great sustain... You have to hear or much better to play it by yourself. Due to the e-guitar "Jane" got plenty of positive feedbacks, also from accomplished musicians, Pirmin Giger and his longtime friend Silvan Küng foundet the guitar label "Relish Guitars". These guys have the goal to produce and to merchandise "Jane" in series. Afterwards more products are supposed to join in. Both Pirmin and Silvan are passionate guitar players / musicians with a handcraft as well as design and marketing background. As you can see we currently are in the preparation phase. We are open minded and thankful for your help by financing our prototypes! Your Relish Bro's Primin & Silvan

I've decided to remain independent as an artist, and I want to bring down the commercial wall between artist and listener, and offer you a platform to connect directly, where your support goes furthest.

After many years of singing and waiting for the right moment, I am finally ready to take off with my own music. Together with wonderful musicians we will record my music in a very good studio to achieve the best possible result that was worth the waiting!

I'm so excited to finally record my songs in good studio quality, put them on a CD and stream them directly to your speakers! With your support I can produce my first studio-album. :)

Young, fresh, dynamic. The 4 members with a rehearsal room in Schübelbach, a village with about 3 people and 300 cows in the heart of Switzerland, are musicians through and through. For more than a decade now have they been making their own mixture of raw Punk and bright pop. And now is finally the time where they come out of their barns to show the world that Swiss musicians can do more than just yodelling.

«three best things from switzerland: cheese, chocolate, the band mellowtone» ... «such an appealing sound is an achievement itself» ... «style and swagger in a cool and dark way» ... that's just a selection of the incredible reviews we got for our second album «broken rooms» – and that's only thanks to you! with your support, we were able to realize our second album and even more: we are on the verge of a third album!

Since two years I am working on my songs and with a lot of support they got a new outfit. Until now everybody knew my songs only with guitar and voice, now we arranged them with many diiferent instruments - piano, flute, fiddle, percussion... I spent countless hours in the studio of Reto Hofstetter, a graphic designer is drawing my booklet and then finally the CD needs to be made. It includes 12 beautiful songs. Until now I financed everything by myself and the musicians worked for free. To finish the project well I need financial support.

Do you dream like us of hearing Balkan music on the stages of the greatest festivals? To finally have something to look at on Youtube? To shout "Opa" at the best dance parties? Tzupati Orchestra needs your support to make its first video clip. It would allow us to reach a wider audience and have access to major stages and festivals around the globe. so all together now: "Opa Cupa"!

With our album 'The Other Side' a whole story has begun. As we started recording two years ago, we were a duo... But then came ambient-guitar, singing saw, violin, sitar and more. Today - two years later - our music contains half an orchestra from the USA, Israel and Holland. It turned in to life and our Album started writing itself. Adaya Lancha Bairacli - the singer and composer of this Band writes songs since she is 11. Her passion for Celtic music and her charismatic way of creating sounds made place for a new genre; Celtic Americana Folk. Our music is like the sea, sometimes wild, sometimes calm. Our band is like the wind, it comes from everywhere and goes everywhere. Our hope is as high as the mountains and I hope so is yours! To be able to spread our music like seeds, it needs to be digital. You can help! HERE SOME FACTS: 'The Other Side' will come out by the end of this year AT THE LATEST. We are recording at our 'Trash Palace' Studio in Bern, Switzerland. That's what we need to finance: - Mix&Mastering - CD Artwork - CD Production - SUISA Fee's (Swiss copyright company specialized for music) The Album will contain 13 original songs. You made it all the way here, wow! Do you want to take one more step? 'Follow me to the other side'
