Abeille  Abeille Musique is an independent, French record house created by Yves Riesel in September 1997. Abeille Musique produces and distributes classical music, jazz, world music, children’s music, sound or literary documents. Abeille Musique differs from “numerical aggregators”, since they offer a mixed physical and numerical solution to French and foreign music publishers using their own technology, and define themselves according to Yves Riesel as “a record house that has absorbed technical issues” and not as a numerical “pure player”.

Qobuz  Qobuz is an online purchase service which specificity lies in their lossless streaming offer. Its founder is the music editor Yves Riesel who is also the director of Abeille Musique. His entrepreneurial strategy consists in associating unique characteristics to an online music purchase service, such that a musical webzine.
