Saavan is formed by Lucas Mokrani and Claire Lengaigne, two french northerners now based in Paris, who find in these musical pieces a shelter from the rest of the world.
That is precisely the beauty of Saavan's music : a constant balance between lightness and melancholia, those warm yet disillusioned layers of sound, their way of orchestrating, with ease, a fusion between two different - almost opposite – worlds. There are reminiscences of Floating Points, Four Tet or Bonobo in their way of perceiving each melody as a call to travel, and of Tame Impala when it comes to their approach of those pop chorus. Charles Bukowski or Jack Kerouac could also be mentionned, because of those lyrics which, yet filled with hope, carry their load of disenchantement.
