Photons, the Paris-based electro-jazz quartet led by pianist Gauthier Toux, delivered a full live set for KEXP at ESMA in Rennes, France, during Trans Musicales 2025. The performance captures the four-piece, Toux on keyboards, Julien Loutelier on drums, Samuel F’hima on bass, and Giani Caserotto on guitar, doing what they do best: blurring every line between jazz improvisation and electronic club music in real time. Viewers are calling it one of the most hypnotic KEXP sessions in recent memory, a locked-in, floor-leveling forty minutes that earns every second of its runtime.
