AKKAN is the Barcelona-based production partnership between prolific natives BeGun and Ocellot. They supposedly came together after a magic mushroom psychotropic journey in the Kalahari Desert and that is reflected in their sounds, which build on an idiosyncratic spell of trippy melodies and club-oriented ethnic rhythms fused together with spontaneous single-take recordings. Debut EP Bananant (La Belle Records) is a refreshing package of inventive and off-kilter house sounds that make for a unique and colourful trip.
