Artist Biography For Akim El Sikameya
He Projects A Dignified Stratospheric Sound Both In The Qualities Of His Impossibly High Voice And His Ornamented Bittersweet Violin. By Martin Longley
18 January 2006 The Algerian Akim El Sikameya Made A Significant Impression At 2005's WOMAD Festival Not Least For Possessing A Voice That In Others Might Be The Result Of Helium Inhalation. He Projects A Dignified Stratospheric Sound Both In The Qualities Of His Impossibly High Voice And His Ornamented Bittersweet Violin. Akim Marshals A Broad Spread Of Players But Manages To Keep Them Sounding Like A Very Controlled Chamber Group. The Musical Vocabulary Has North African Roots But El Sikameya Also Snatches Motifs From Flamenco Jazz West African Pop And On One Song Even Manages To Combine Samba And French Chanson. Akim's Songs Are Often Too Brief To Allow The Listener's Full Involvement But The True Spirit Of Exaggerated Romance Pervades With Only Occasional Lapses Into Sickly Smoothness. Extracted From BBC.
