reduced approach twee pop from nantes, france. clean guitar and synth playing with minimal drum backing. focus on melody and lyricism. their songs transmit a hypnotic sense of new beginning, like the velvet underground did.

nathan roche isn't a one trick pony. he writes poetry, formed the punkish villejuf underground and experiments with sounds in c.i.a debutanté. his solo project settles a bit more in the middle of the rock spectrum, while keeping a garage, lou reed - art rock edge. talk to him about the van he once almost drove off a cliff, great story!
