POLY-FANNIES
Naan and TSEG co-found Poly-Fannies during summer 2013. The duet focuses on their favorite instrument, the drums.
Their complementary drumming, played along guitar, vocals, laptop, sample, loops in real time and other electronics sets an unusual tone to the project.
Tossing their works on sound texture and electro-acoustic landscaping as well as their strong free jazz/psych rock roots and IDM techniques in a shaker, an improvisation recorded during the fall gives birth to "Athom Afternaan", their first album, released on tape in december 2014 by the English label Discrepant.
The band works and interacts with sound engineer Jérémy Michel and photographer Camille Cooken in order to increase their impact and visual identity for concerts and albums.

Naan et Tseg forment Poly-Fannies durant l'été 2013.
Le duo est essentiellement axé sur leur instrument de prédilection, la batterie.
Leurs jeux complémentaires et leur travail sur les textures électroniques donnent le ton musicale au projet: un mélange de Jazz débridé, d'IDM, de rock psychédélique et d’expérimentations électro-acoustique.
En 2014 ils mixent leur premier album Athom Afternan', fruit du montage de 2 sessions d'improvisations. L'album sort en K7 en décembre 2014 sur le label anglais Discrepant.
Le groupe travaille et interagit avec leur ingénieur du son Jérémy Michel afin d'accroître l'impact scénique et de renforcer l'univers sonore du groupe.
Ils collaborent avec la photographe Camille Cooken afin de donner une identité visuelle à l'album et aux concerts.
