Where sound becomes sculpture, and atmosphere becomes art
ÆTĦR is the new sonic-sculpture initiative co-founded by multifaceted artists Stéphane Clément & Adam Lamoureux. Born from a shared vision of transforming hospitality spaces through sound, we recognized that the dining experience extends far beyond taste and presentation.
Interlacing live instrumentation with bespoke electronic processing and Spatial Audio, ÆTĦR crafts intimate sound environments that elevate the ambiance of Michelin-starred tables, luxury suites and more.
Driven by a passion for experiential storytelling, we partner with intimate spaces to create multi-sensory journeys that resonate long after the moment.
Adam Lamoureux is an acclaimed saxophonist and film composer based in New York City. In addition to co-founding ÆTĦR, his work has been featured at the New York Film Festival and alongside icons like Whoopi Goldberg.
Stéphane Clément is a German-Haitian trumpeter, producer, and artist based in New York. He co-founded Ressonnance and ÆTĦR, creating immersive sound experiences for luxury and art spaces worldwide.
"Fine dining is an ever-evolving art form that is focused on giving diners a unique and luxurious experience. Restaurants constantly experiment with their food, drinks, decor and hospitality to achieve this, but always seem to skimp on the auditory aspects. As someone who has dined in 20+ Michelin starred restaurants, I have never thought that the music choice fits the ambience. ÆTĦR is attempting to fix what is in my opinion, the biggest oversight in the fine dining industry by creating soundtracks that are specially designed to enhance and elevate the specific restaurant. This addition will make the overall experience much more special and will add something new and exciting to a formula that is becoming monotonous."
We believe sound shapes space as powerfully as walls and light. Our compositions create invisible architectures that guide emotion and enhance every moment of the journey.
Every space has its own voice. We don't believe in one-size-fits-all solutions. Each composition is meticulously crafted to reflect your unique atmosphere, menu, and vision.
Great ambient music should be complementary to the space, not imposed. Our systems integrate harmoniously into your operations, enhancing without interrupting the natural flow of service.
