Piché studied electroacoustic and computer music at Simon Fraser University with Barry Truax, and at the Institute of Sonology in the Netherlands. He has taught electroacoustic composition in the Faculty of Music at the University of Montreal since 1988. Since the early 1990s, Piché has focused on the creation of hybrid compositions involving abstract moving images which he calls "videomusic."
