Cinna Peyghamy
Cinna Peyghamy is Paris-based French-Iranian percussionist, composer and producer. His debut album ‘Gamut’ released in 2017 under the moniker Cikkun, soon followed by the EP ‘Injonctions’. Both showcased a unique turn on IDM and bass music’s standard as the young producer started to implement what would define his sound : fragmented rhythms, severe pattern seizure, abrasive melodies and abyssal mood swings.
Leaving his alias and performing under his full name since 2019, his recent work focuses on blending the boundaries between acoustic and electronic instruments. His recent work focuses on real-time transformation of acoustic sounds. At the center of his setup is the tombak, a traditional percussion instrument. By combining it with the endless possibilities of the modular synthesizer, Cinna blends the boundaries between acoustic and electronic, between traditional and contemporary. His live acts are about building a dialogue between these two sonic entities and exploring the never-ending improvisation field created by this hybrid setup.
