Akkan

Akkan is born out of the collaboration between Barcelona producers BeGun and Ocellot. They are one of the most exciting acts to come out of the current global electronic music scene, redefining dance music with the use of world grooves and organic sounds.

The duo came together after a shamanic and hallucinogenic journey in Southern Africa. During this journey, the two Catalan musicians started working on what would become their signature sound. Their music is club-oriented organic electronica characterized by jungle sounds, shimmering analog synths, tribal percussions, exotic vocals, trippy melodies, and folk instruments.

Their album, composed as a journey, was produced between the duo's studios in the Irish countryside and Barcelona. They embraced different global musical influences encountered during their adventures. This includes field recordings taken from the streets of Mexico while touring, collaborations with local producers, and setting up sound-systems in the foreign places they stayed during their nomadic life.

The final product is as eclectic as it is sincere, an album born in several places around the world, inspired by different sounds.
