Since their first encounter with the Aka Pygmees in 1992, Aka Moon's focus has shifted towards various different African, Indian, Maghrebian, Cuban, Arab, Afro-American and European traditions. Aka Moon juggles with polyrhythms and polyphonies like mad DJ's. They slide from one phrase into another, opening up new harmonic and rhythmic paths. As a trio or in larger formations they cross over in a kaleidoscopic and elusive way creating a whirlwind of unclassifiable, transcending and cosmic music. Aka Moon played in more than 30 countries and at the most famous festivals (Montreal Jazz festival, Vancouver Jazz festival, New York Jazz festival...) They released 13 albums so far
